Royal Charge
1 This wasn’t the first time somebody’d fucked King George half to death, and knowing he’d live to tell the tale wouldn’t’ve brightened his mood. What could he say? That he, Smuggler Extraordinaire, pinnacle of lupine hunkiness, lover of all...
Azure Bloodlust - Chapter 1: The Elemancer's Game
1 Ed's twenty-fifth birthday was going off without a…it was off to a great…well, it was happening. “Give it a rest, Trix," he said. “I can't get it up." “You can't, I can," Trixie unwound her lips from his cock long enough to say before diving back...
Azure Bloodlust - Chapter 9: The Infiltration
1 Four bandits hid in an alley deeper in town. The leader wore a grungy, hooded oil cloak. The one behind him wore a high-collared, purple cloak and a pointy wizard's hat. The third animal wore a simple cape that did nothing to obscure his armor and...
Azure Bloodlust - Chapter 10: The Apprentices Duel, or How Ed wished Stowhart'd waited a Minute Longer

Azure Bloodlust - Chapter 2: The Feral Islands Job (Part 1)

Azure Bloodlust - Chapter 4: The Feral Islands Job (Part 3)

Azure Bloodlust - Chapter 7: The Bastard's Murder on the Dance Floor (Part 3)
1 Damn that Gunso! Lain Granfyre would've been dead had he not led the others to him. Oh well, Horei thought, sashaying along a wooded path toward Nemissa's, feeling neither Lain Granfyre's body heat nor the night's brisk chill assailing his damp...
Azure Bloodlust - Chapter 6: The Bastard's Murder on the Dance Floor (Part 2)
1 Brothels have everything, for a price. Sex. Drugs. Indigestion. Ed wanted a warm bed. Okay, he wanted those other things too, but a warm bed topped the list. He was creative. He could manage fucking, eating, and drinking himself silly while...
Azure Bloodlust - The First Interim: Ancient Times, When Handhelds needed AA Batteries
1 Months dragged after Ed started traveling with Masamune Kage. He wasn't the old man's slave, whatever being bought for a bag of gold might've implied. A need for familiar structure made him clean his weapons, not his “Master" telling him to....
