Cut My Hair and Changed My Face by AliC

Chapter 48

**Three Days Earlier** ---------------------- “Are you sure you wanna do this?” Lindsey asked. They stood outside the salon, in the narrow, cobblestone streets that made up the village proper. It was a beautiful town, in truth, though its total lack of inhabitants gave it the f...

Beneath the Mask by AliC

Chapter 52

Do It All the Time by AliC

Chapter 60

Jake sat up in bed, rubbing his eyes. It was dark, and sheets were loose around him. He wore an old, familiar shirt, with old, familiar pajama pants. Morning light drifted through the window of his old, familiar condo. It was _his_ condo. There was no island. No _harem_. He wasn...

Someone to Love by AliC

Chapter 62

The train jerked, rousing Jake up from sleep. Or at least, as he was coming to realize, the intermission between one dream and another. He rubbed his eyes, collecting himself. He was on a train. And it took only a cursory scan of his surroundings to realize that it wasn’t i...

R, P and G Part 1 by AliC

Chapter 64

Jake looked over his choice of doors, then turned to the girls who’d given them to him; the two behind the bar and the one dangling from his neck. “So, what are the games?” He asked. “Where’s the fun in us telling you that?” Lindsey protested. “It’s supposed to be a surprise.”...
