Chapter 5

As the matchmaking system pulled up the available contracts, it begins to more closely examine the marriage contract for Raven. All the sigils and wards on the contract made it seem alluring or at the very least worth a look. Pulling up a copy of the contract, the screen showed;...

Chapter 6

It seemed like a good enough match at least according to the system. Now that the matchmaking system has approved the match between Raven and Cole McKay. Based around the profiles it started to calculate the gifts and living arrangements for the two. This was rather awkward given...

Chapter 7

The sounds of morning started to drift through the bedroom. The sound of birds, people off to work, the occasional honk or speaker too loud. Cole grumbled and closed his eyes tighter as he pulled the blankets closer. He was aware but not awake, that state where one needs to get u...

Chapter 8

(AN - For the longest time I thought Rachel was Raven's real name, not the alias she uses. I'm unsure about which one to use) Deciding he’d take a proper shower after eating, Cole wiped his face after washing up in the sink. Mainly splashing his face with ice cold water several...

Chapter 9

“Seems to be… a little black stick figure?” Cole muttered as he squinted. Whoever did the labels either couldn’t draw or didn’t have the room for it. The image was that of a little blocky stick man, like the kind you’d see in directions towards the bathroom or fire escape, with h...

Chapter 10

Raven found herself back at the Office. She didn't feel like seeing Cole at the moment, better to get a solid grasp of her current emotions before seeing him again. Rather she wanted to take a look at the paper work. She had only glanced through most of it before. The two contrac...

Chapter 11

“So…., any experience in running a store?” Raven figured asking about past work experience would be a fair way to begin breaking the ice. Perhaps she could turn that into asking about his boxing. And by centering the question around their current predicament, perhaps it wouldn’t...

Chapter 12

The day passed as customers were served and money exchanged hands. Raven grew to like her task; it was much nicer here than working at some fast food places. Clientele was better for one and it was always interesting to see what was in the reading list for people. Besides that on...

Chapter 13

((AN - I liked the idea of 20 questions but wanted to put a different spin on the idea)) "What now? Hmmm." Raven cocked her head to think, ".... I suppose we need to find a way to pass the time." "Cupid was nice enough to give us that rec/living room." Cole said, making a thumb...

Chapter 14

“Suppose it can’t hurt.” Cole muttered as he flexed his arm a bit, opening and closing his fist,“I’m what someone would call an Out Boxer. Meaning I try to stay at arm’s length or further in a fight, using my foot work to weave in and out.” He paused to consider something before...

Chapter 15

Cole let out a long defeated sigh as he hung his head down. Maybe the half demon woman was right. Maybe she could help with it, after all she literally had a demon side. Her entire story was fighting and overcoming something like that so... well if anyone could understand it migh...

Chapter 16

Raven thought on the question. She was starting to see why Cupid's Wish put them together. But that was something to deal with later. "What now? Nothing. This changes nothing in the short term. Other than my trust for you has increased." Rave said, carefully choosing her words....

Chapter 17

"In bed. It's large enough for both of our needs." Raven said as she moved off to the bed room, waving for him to follow. Cole tugged at the collar of his shirt unsure about this. Still he followed as he didn't have a better idea and heck if she was offering. Well... maybe this w...

Chapter 18

A sense of warmth was the first indication that she was waking up. Senses slowly turning on and feeding into her mind. The warmth of the bed, the smell of the sheets, the feeling of someone else’s heart beat. All common feelings to wake up to…, _“Wait a minute.”_ Raven’s eyes s...

Chapter 19

"That’s fine. I’m looking for one thing anyway." Raven said. Zen nodded and opened the door. Stepping through, Raven felt the same weird feeling as she did going into her own mind. Maybe a little… odder than normal. It felt like slime rather than oatmeal. When she got her bearin...

Chapter 20

Raven stretched as the water warmed up before unbuttoning her top. Removing it losing the pants too, Raven poses to look at herself in the mirror. Her flawless pale grey skin and purple hair was about all the remind the same. She hadn’t been the least curvy of the team, but the b...

Chapter 21

Cole rolled over, letting his nose point upward. The smell of something good wafted into his nostrils. Two scents really, one a deep roasted smell the other a fluffier sweeter smell. The pair merged together to make Cole’s body react in two ways. First get up; second get hungry....

Chapter 22

Cole carefully made his way to the hidden room. "We really need a better name for it" he thought as he took a few steps out. It was still extremely off putting to just step onto air like that. Besides the queasy nature of the act, Cole was feeling pretty good. A nice hot shower...

Chapter 23

"Next is Physical." Raven said, walking around the boxer as she took a better look at his muscles. Cole's body was extremely toned, his muscles honed down to just what was needed for his boxing style. A little bigger than Nightwing though but only slightly. Part of that was due t...

Chapter 24

Cole dragged himself to the bathroom, hoping to get a shower. He wasn't fully stupid though and paused long enough to make sure Raven wasn't inside. Given everything that had happened thus far, he wasn't sure if the universe would make him walk into a showering Raven. Seemed she...
