    Summary

    Agatha whipped her head and body towards the student. “What the fuck is your problem?”

    “No problem,” She shook her head, smirking. “I like talking to you.”

    “You like pissing me off.” Agatha sniped, plucking her glass off the bar when it arrived.

    “Those two seem to be one in the same.”

    “Just tell me something.” She said after letting a sip burn down her throat. “Where do you get off speaking to a respected professor like that?”

    “Like what?”

    “You were argumentative, disrespectful, dismissive–”

    “No, Agatha, that was you.”

    “Dr. Harkness.” Agatha corrected. “Only people I like can call me Agatha and I don’t like you.”

    “Now, that’s not true.” Rio tilted her head. “You’re talking to me, aren’t you?”

    OR

    Newly tenured professor, Dr. Agatha Harkness, has nothing to prove. That is until she meets a smug, twenty-three year old PhD student in Copenhagen after her first keynote speech. Never one to shy away from a challenge, Agatha seeks to put Rio in her place by any means necessary. No matter what the consequences…

    Summary

    After Halloween, she doesn’t think about that night too often. It was fun; now it’s over. They didn’t exchange phone numbers or anything of the sort.

    As a matter of fact, she doesn’t remember saying goodbye to Rio at all, or how she got home. She woke up in her own bed the next morning, and that was it.

    She doesn’t dwell on it. She doesn’t particularly like to dwell on anything.

    Until eight weeks later, when she’s sitting in her bathroom, clutching a pregnancy test.

    A positive pregnancy test.

    ------------------------------------------------------

    Rio is Death. Agatha is a regular human who finds herself unexpectedly pregnant after a one-night stand with a mysterious woman she meets in an eerie bar on Halloween.

    Summary

    Firefighters know the importance of good water pressure. Or, at least, that's what Ava would tell the crew when they asked why she always took a shower at the station.

    The water pressure at Ava's apartment was shit, and the station always had hot water. So, every night, every morning, and sometimes, randomly in the middle of the day, Ava would take full advantage of the facilities.

    Except that wasn't the whole truth. They really were great showers, sure, but the real reason Ava carefully planned every time she showered was what Ava was doing right now.

    Sometimes, if Ava got the timing right and said just the right things, she could convince someone to join her in the shower.

    So, tonight, during her second shower of the day, Ava was pressed against and three fingers deep inside one Lieutenant Beatrice Lin-Watson while the rest of their crew was obliviously watching Sharknado: The 4th Awakens across the firehouse.

    Here's how Ava managed it.

    “You look like you just sprinted a mile,” Alice said, smirking. “Dr. Harkness give you a hard time today?”

    Rio dropped into the seat across from her, pulling her scarf loose and letting out a sigh. “No, not really. She actually said I had a ‘fair interpretation.’”

    Alice leaned forward, resting her chin on her hand. “And that made your entire week, didn’t it?”

    Rio tried to brush it off, stirring sugar into her coffee. “She’s just — she has this presence, you know? The way she talks, the way she challenges you. It’s like she’s… magnetic.”

    “Uh-huh.” Alice’s smirk deepened. “Magnetic. Sure. That’s the word we’re going with?”

    “Oh, stop it,” Rio groaned, her cheeks heating.

    Summary

    Rio, a florist living in New York, has spent years keeping her distance from her hometown and the people in it. She’s built a life on independence, casual flings, and avoiding attachments. But when her estranged stepsister, Jen, pressures her into returning to their small town to provide flowers for her wedding, Rio reluctantly agrees—mostly for the paycheck.

    Back home, Rio is immediately thrown back into the lives of Jen and her close-knit friend group, including Agatha, a single mom who has always been responsible and put everyone else first. Agatha has her hands full with her son, her failing bookstore, and dealing with her unreliable ex, Wanda. She doesn’t have time for distractions—especially not Rio, who she remembers as Jen’s aloof, rebellious stepsister who never seemed to care about anything.

    Summary

    “Who does she think she is?” Rio said, gesturing wildly. “Just got here and already acting like she owns the damn place!”

    Alice looked around Rio, “Hot too,” Alice muttered.

    Rio looked confused before turning around and glancing back at the house where Agatha had appeared in the window. A white fitted t-shirt was tucked into her high-waisted jeans. Her brown hair was wild, like she hadn’t even had a chance to run a brush through it before writing her lovely little hate note.

    Agatha crossed her arms and gripped a mug of coffee as she continued her stare down with Rio, and Rio could swear she saw her lips quirk into a smirk.

    Rio groaned. Environmentally friendly, bitchy, and hot. Extremely hot.

    OR: Rio is a garbage collector, and Agatha Harkness just got added to her route. Shenanigans ensue.

    Summary

    Rio pulled the Debussy piece out of her folder and placed it on the music rack in front of Agatha. Leaning slightly forward, she came closer to her head and hair, strongly smelling of lavender and sandalwood. She cleared her throat and scratched her nose instead of inhaling it. “Go slow, no need to rush if you haven’t done this in a while,” Rio mumbled as she arranged the sheets. “Oh,” Agatha grinned, “I always go slow when I can Miss Vidal,” she replied and placed her hands on the keyboard, hitting the first notes with a surety Rio hadn’t expected.
