    Summary

    The door swung open and Lockwood stepped into the room.

    Lucy glanced over her shoulder and was rewarded with the sight of him in shirt sleeves, rolled up to his forearms. Her thighs tightened against each other.

    She’d been so certain that he’d be wearing a suit jacket. But nope. His sleeves were rolled up, he wore a heavy leather watch, and Lucy desperately wanted to suck on each of his fingers.

    She absolutely did not have a crush on her dickhead boss. She didn’t.

     

    Or: Lucy totally has a crush on her boss.

    Summary

    Whoever believes love and hate are two very different things can go to hell.

    This is Lucy's constant mantra as her back hits the wall of the supply closet, her legs wrapped tightly around Lockwood's waist as he thrusts furiously into her. His mouth is on her neck, sucking in another bruise that she'll have to cover up once they finish, but it's worth it.

    She's not going to tell him it's worth it, but deep down, they both know the truth.

    It's not something either of them plans to admit, but they know.

    They know.

     

    Or: Locklyle hate sex.

    Summary

    “I don’t – I don’t belong to you –” Her voice cracks. This is a lie. They both know it’s a lie. She belongs to him, and he belongs to her, and there’s just no getting past that.

    “Yes, you do,” he says promptly. “Just like I’m yours. Just because you left the agency doesn’t mean our feelings died.”

     

    Or: Lockwood has a jealous streak.

    Summary

    He’s determined to lie to himself until he no longer can, until it becomes too much to bear. He’s going to pretend that he holds no attraction to one of his students. He’s going to act perfectly normal around Miss Carlyle tomorrow, and she’s not going to suspect a thing.

    He wonders how long it will take before his willpower crumbles. He gives it a month. One month before he finds himself guilty as sin.

    Summary

    Maybe she was the only one in the world who didn't like champagne, but she didn't care. Not really. Not when Anthony Lockwood was on her arm.

    Her date.

    Her actual date .

    Not just her boss. Not just her colleague. Not just because he had to be there beside her (though, admittedly, this was part of the reason). Because he was escorting her. She was on his arm, and he was on hers, and she didn't think she could possibly be happier.

    Summary

    The sweatshirt isn’t usually something he looks at too closely. It’s generally baggy and designed to hide her chest, and he respects that. But today, there’s something different about the sweatshirt.

    It’s a zip-up hoodie for one. She’s never worn one of those around the house.

    It’s also even baggier than normal, and hits mid-thigh on her. It covers everything.

    But before he can feel too disappointed, he realizes that it’s gray.

    Lucy doesn’t wear gray. She usually sticks to blue or black.

    Everything clicks into place as he realizes why it’s so big on her.

    It’s his hoodie.

    She’s wearing his clothes.

    His brain fritzes a bit, and it’s entirely possible that he blacks out for a moment.

     

    Or: Lucy wears Lockwood's hoodie. A lot. In various stages of undress.

    Summary

    “They’re probably not yours at all,” Lucy told him. “They probably belonged to someone else. It was just a random find.”

    “Well, what are they?” he pressed. “I genuinely don’t know what you’re referring to.”

    Looking up into his face, she mumbled out, “I found porn magazines in the wardrobe.”

    His eyes widened at once, and her heart skipped a beat.

     

    Or: Lucy stumbles across some interesting magazines that definitely belonged to Lockwood.

    Summary

    “Some of us don’t have your reputation,” she shoots back, and he chuckles, low and dark.

    “Thank god for that, right?”

    “I’ve always been a good girl,” she insists.

    “Then why are you here with me right now? Why is my hand between your legs if you’re so good?”

    Summary

    “How, Lockwood?” she snapped. “How could forgetting the goddamn chains be an accident?”

    “It just - it just was. I got distracted.”

    “By what?” she demanded, and Lockwood had not thought this one through. In his head, he had hoped that she would immediately forgive him. But that seemed rather unlikely at the moment.

    Summary

    Lockwood groaned. “Why is it always the virgin? This is the third weird-ass ritual I’ve done this summer to get rid of some ghosts. Last time it was a blood sacrifice. The time before that, I had to read erotic poetry under a full moon.” He considered that. “That first time was actually worse. This might be quick.”

    Summary

    All his thoughts tumble out of his head as Lucy cranes her head around and stares up at him. Her gaze meets his, and it is shameless. It is intentional. It is purposeful.

    This has been planned. She weaved this web and Lockwood has been trapped in it. Furthermore, he realizes with a swooping pleasure, that he is allowed to look. To watch. To stare.

     

    Or: Lockwood and Co go on holiday, and Lockwood gets more than he bargained for when it comes to Lucy. AKA the mutual masturbation fic that no one asked for.

    Summary

    This is what she’s been waiting for all day, since she woke up alone, as he’d left for work early due to a department meeting regarding supervisors and agents. UPRA is still getting their shit straightened out, and they’re relying more and more on Lockwood for this. It’s great for him, and she’s pleased and proud. But she hasn’t gotten to see her husband much in the last two weeks, and she misses him.

    So she did what she always does when she wants attention, particularly that sort of attention. Her husband is a kinky bastard, but so is she. And she will happily remind him of this whenever he begins to forget that he’s not the only one with needs because he will ignore his own.

    Summary

    Kipps gently nudges Lucy forward, and Lockwood closes the gap. She’s trapped between them, Kipps’ front against her back, and Lockwood’s torso against her chest.

    “I think we should offer her a little show before I take my leave,” Kipps murmurs to Lockwood. “Maybe she can join in if she feels like it.”

    “Only if she’s agreeable,” Lockwood says. “Luce? What do you think?”

    He’s certifiably insane if he thinks she’s going to say no to this.

    “I’m cool with it,” she manages to get out.

     

    Or: As Lucy and Lockwood transition into a real relationship, Kipps suggests one last time with Lockwood-and Lucy is invited.

    Summary

    But as he drew closer to the bar, he realized that the girl didn’t just have the same build as Lucy–he would recognize that body anywhere. He had spent a year and a half memorizing it intimately, both dressed and without clothes. If asked, he could place every freckle on her body. He knew all her birthmarks, all her scars. And right now, he could see the little cluster of freckles on the side of her neck, usually hidden by her hair but she had just swept it aside.

    Lucy.

    Lucy with dyed hair, longer than she had ever allowed it to grow when she was at the agency.

    Lucy was here, at the club.

    Lucy was here, in a black dress and her combat boots, drinking at the bar.

    Summary

    “That’s not true,” Lucy said bracingly. She rose to her feet. “You told me once that we’re not nobodies. We’re Lockwood and Co. That counts for something. We started off with nothing, and we’ve made something of ourselves. We have a decent agency, Lockwood. We’re getting steady work. We don’t need to compete with Fittes–we know we’re better than them. You’re better than Kipps,” she added quietly. “Besides, I bet I can give you something that Kipps will never get.”

    “What?” Lockwood demanded gruffly.

    She pushed herself up onto her tiptoes and kissed him.

    Lockwood offered Lucy a cheeky smile. “Ready to make one final stand before we destroy the graveyard and kick some ghost arse?”

    Lucy grinned back. “I’m always ready.”
