    Summary

    “Damn it,” Alex grumbles, kicking at an empty chair until it skids across the floor. “Come on, guys. There has to be someone who can go undercover. Any woman under 30 at this bureau who can put on some makeup and twirl in a circle.”

    And then all eyes, inexplicably, go to Kara.

    “Who?” Kara asks, looking back and forth between Alex and Vasquez and surreptitiously brushing the Cheeto dust from her pants. “Who is it, guys?”

    But Alex and Vasquez just keep staring at her silently, matching grins on their faces, and after a few seconds the horrible truth dawns on her. Kara blinks, looking down at herself and then back up at them.

    “But…I’m 31?”

    To help her sister foil an attack on the Miss United States pageant, Kara needs to go undercover. There’s only one problem – she’s never been ladylike a day in her life. What starts as a reluctant favour leads Kara to real friendship, growth, and Lena Luthor, all under the watchful eye of the pageant spotlight.

    Summary

    When later asked, Kara will vehemently insist that she is not, nor has she ever been, a sugar baby.

    She just happens to be in the position to accept extravagant gifts and money from a wealthy CEO in exchange for certain acts of physical and emotional intimacy. But! That does not make her a sugar baby, okay? It makes her a friend. A great one, actually, and the only one Lena Luthor has likely ever had.

    Summary

    “Okay. What’s your name?”

    Lena’s response is knee-jerk. “None of your damn business.”

    Supergirl runs her fingers through her hair. It sticks up wildly near her temple, and Lena can see a slight cowlick. It’s strangely humanizing. “Look, my boss isn’t going to like that I’m working with an unknown as it is. If we’re going to work together, I at least need something to call you.”

    When Lena shakes Supergirl’s hand, she feels the warmth of victory when the hero seems shocked at the firmness of her grip. But alarmingly an even stronger warmth radiates from their joined palms, spreading up her arm; Lena pulls her hand back faster than what’s generally considered polite, curling it into a fist.

    “You can call me Kieran.”

    OR

    For over a hundred years, Lena has been trying to escape the suffocating hierarchy of the fae – and ever since her mother moved LuthorCorp to National City the only way to do so is to work with Supergirl, with whom Lena shares a soul-deep connection she can’t control.

    What’s a vampire to do?
