    Summary

    When he boards the elevator he’s upset. By the time he leaves the elevator he’s angry, each reverberation of his feet hitting asphalt felt in the remaining bones and surgical grade titanium in his right leg, all the way up to his hip. It takes him less than sixty seconds to walk from the parking deck to the ambulance bay. Ten feet from the entrance, he sees Robby walk through the first set of doors, past Ahmad, and then through the second set of doors. His pulse roars in his ears, his heart pounding in his chest. For the first time in years, Jack Abbot feels something approximating rage, an emotion he has long assumed to be medicated out of him.

    His hands furl into fists.

    ++

    Robby commits the critical error of making Samira cry. Jack reacts.

    Summary

    “You elves have such a fascinating means of establishing the paternity of your young,” Sauron says casually. “Needing the father nearby. The compulsion to submit yourself to his will. It’s all very neatly done, threaded into your very creation.”

    Galadriel nods, weary.

    “Something about ensuring the strength of the familial bond, if I recall? How…” he trails off, looking down at her. “Convenient.”

     

    Or: left with no choice, Galadriel finds herself at the doorstep of her daughter’s father.

    Summary

    "Double or nothing," said Webster abruptly.

    "How exactly do you mean to double 'everything I had?'" said Ash. He meant it to come out level, but there was a quaver in his voice.

    "One more trick," Webster said. "Play, and win or lose you will walk away with your fortune." Ash stared at him. Webster made an impatient gesture. "I don't want or need your money. Or your house. Or your coat and shirt, come to that."

    It was an offer of princely generosity. Ash's mouth was dry. "And what would you have from me?" he asked.

    Something flared in Webster's cool expression for a moment, like a shark flashing a fin in still waters. "A month," he said.

    Summary

    Chloe led a perfectly ordinary life, and she was satisfied with her lot. She had friends and family, a hobby or two, and a decent job as a waitress. Things were fine. Until business magnate Jean Girardi noticed her, and nothing would ever be ordinary again.

    OR: Hot DILF rails girl on a whim.

    Summary

    “You are frowning.”

    His lids drooped as Galadriel reached up to brush her thumb along the crease between his brows. Halbrand didn’t remember her coming over, but now she stood between his legs, mist at her hairline and yet smelling only of sweet blooms and fresh grass. The scent of the Valar. A taste of home.

    “I am drunk,” he announced.
