Summary
Derek Hale, Viscount of Beacon, has just been dragged home from the army to clean up the mess his deceased uncle made of his affairs. Finding himself downing in debt, Derek would do anything to save the ancestral home. Even if it means hanging out for a rich spouse. He's willing to offer his savior everything - or at least an introduction to the ton.
Mieczysław Stilinski, heir to an enormous fortune, likes the idea of being Quality - but what he really wants is to please the dead mother and living father who'd enjoy nothing more than to see him elevated. Stiles would do anything to make them both happy; even if that means marrying the most reluctant peer in London.
A contract marriage between them would solve everything.
Unfortunately.

Summary
Stiles’ hands were shaking as he took a handful of his veil, though he wished he could act bravely and just tear the material off. He slowly began to lift the veil, his heartbeat racing as he continued to look at the Alpha through the material.
'There isn’t another way', Stiles reassured himself.
His veil felt heavier than it should as he lifted it over his chin.
Calloused hands grasped Stiles’ wrists in a tight hold.
Stiles was startled, his actions halted. His veil was hanging just below his lips as he observed the Alpha.

Summary
The kisses grew hotter each day. Each lick, each bite tasted of desperation.
They reminded each other about the audience, invisible but no less real. A hand on the chest, fingers grabbing the chin to stop the lips from pursuing. Stuttered breaths, simmering heat, gritted teeth. Forehead against forehead and noses rubbing together. In the end, it was Derek who smiled at him in placation and pressed the last calming kiss to Stiles’ eager lips. As if they had all time in the world. As if they would be doing it again and again and again, after. As if something real would exist beyond this TV set.
Yes, Derek kissed him like he wanted it to last. If Stiles was a romantic at heart, he would’ve said it felt like yearning. For what — Stiles didn’t know. There ought to be thousands like him in Derek’s world, while Derek was one in a million.

Summary
When Jaskier is young, he is sold to a slaver to solve his parents' problems with money.
He ends up at the royal court of Tretogor, a gold-collared bedslave, reserved for the royal line. Unlike the others, Jaskier doesn't settle into his fate, but rebels in what little ways he can.
It's no wonder then, that when the warlord of the north visits Tretogor for negotiations, Jaskier finds himself in the middle of it all.---000---
His mother's face is sad, and Julian wishes more than anything he could change that. She tucks a lock of his soft brown hair behind his ear.
“Remember how you said you wanted to help?”
Julian nods.
“There’s someone who… is coming to take a look at you. If you do well, we’ll get enough to pay the rent that’s still due. If we’re very lucky, we’ll get enough to buy back the farm.”
“What do I have to do?” Julian asks.

Summary
To a witcher, touch is almost never a good thing.
Touch means something or someone has gotten too close. Close enough to rend open the places where armour doesn’t protect the vulnerabilities underneath. Close enough to see the pulse where it beats just under the surface, to identify where to strike.
To Geralt, touch is everything beyond that, too. He craves the moments where touch doesn’t mean pain, damage, or potential death, but where it means safety and care. In a witcher’s life, those moments are far and few between.
Geralt bears it and watches the seasons change until he can take out that part of himself for winter, and let it breathe.He’s used to it, and he’s already endured it for decades when he meets Jaskier

Summary
“Right,” Steve says. He crosses his arms on his chest. The bulge in his shorts is hard to ignore, harder to keep his eyes off of; two puns for the price of one. Just shoot him, put him out of his misery. Danny runs his lips through his teeth, biting down hard against the answering thrill in his own groin. “So what’s the problem?” Steve pulls a face of sympathy. “You think you and Melissa aren’t there yet?”
“Yet—you—group sex isn’t a place you get to, you ape, it’s not the natural progression of a relationship, you’re either into it or you’re not—”
“So you’re not, then?”
“That’s not what I said!”
Or what really happened after dinner...

Summary
Geralt has had a miserable time in Redania, contracts far en few between, and decides to go fill a contract put forth by the Viscount de Lettenhove.
When the Viscount tells Geralt to name his price, he names a night with him. A night with the Viscount, just to see the other man waver and refuse. To Geralt's surprise, the noble agrees.--000--
“Butcher,” the Viscount breathes out, and Geralt tries his best not to flinch.
Instead, he looks at the man coolly. The word from the Viscount’s mouth makes him inexplicably angry. He shouldn’t be surprised at the moniker, hasn’t been in a long while, but right now it stings in a new and unexpected way. He’s angry that the man that loves his people so much, has tried to save their children and kill the monster, now isn’t even seeing him as the last resort he was when he was a nameless witcher.The viscount blinks dark lashes over his blue eyes and opens his mouth to speak, but Geralt cuts him off.
“I said I’d take the contract. You said to name my price. Are those still the terms?”

Summary
“At least your puppies knock first,” Stiles snorts. “Here I thought their alpha raised them to be well-mannered.”
“There’s a sign,” Derek responds stiffly.
Stiles, whose curiosity outweighs even his hardest of grudges, abandons his chilly façade of nonchalance in a heartbeat. He jumps right up and all but pushes Derek out of the way in his effort to get to the window, and sure enough when he leans outside there’s a laminated strip of cardstock duct taped to the vinyl siding:
DON’T FORGET TO KNOCK Stiles gets cranky when we scare him

Or, in which Stiles Stilinski moves to Beacon Hills for his junior year of high school and accidentally adopts a pack of teenage werewolves.

Adam nudges his shoulder, “He’ll find his way back, you know.”
Danny blows out a breath. “I dunno anymore about that. The stuff he’s gone through in the last year...”
“He’s had a lot go very wrong, very quickly,” Adam says. “I’m sure it feels like he’s slowly been losing parts of his family and when you reach a certain point, loss aversion takes over. It can make you do crazy things…”

Danny waits for Steve to be ready to come back.

Summary
(PROOF OF CONCEPT [n] a realization of a certain method or idea in order to demonstrate its feasibility. A demonstration in principle with the aim of verifying that some concept or theory has practical potential.)
“The second kind is what I would consider the only right way of doing things. It takes practice and listening to your partner as you play out a scene. It’s called a blood choke, you lightly grip the neck from the front, and—” Eddie demonstrates by tenderly gripping both sides of Buck’s neck with four fingers on one side and thumb on the other, never straying to the center where the skin aches and stings the most from Grindr James. He applies a slow pulse of a tightening grip as he speaks.
“Named blood for the carotid arteries you’re applying pressure to slowly on either side of the esophagus to induce light-headedness,” Eddie is still speaking in low tones but Buck feels the instinctive fluttering of his eyes, overwhelmed by the rush of endorphins he can sense racing away from his brain straight down to his cock in three nanoseconds flat from the firm and reverent touch of someone he's in love with.

Summary
Buck is exhausted right down to the core of him, body aching from the last 48 hours of his shifts—his throat is bruised and sore, reducing his voice down to a hoarse whisper, and his ribs hurt from where he’d gotten knocked into a concrete barrier during a rescue, and his bad leg is throbbing so badly from the barometric pressure change that comes with the Santa Ana winds that he’s limping around his apartment. He wants to cry a little he’s so tired, and then there's a knock at his door and it's the last person he was expecting, and if he's honest with himself, the exact person he was yearning to see.

Summary
But the only words he can find are, “I didn’t—I didn’t know…,”
Tommy seems to see him getting lost, and says, “Know what? Know that your opening day playing for the other team might be overwhelming? Or that it would get crashed by your coworker? Or even that you might feel some kind of way about it?” he smiles, easy as anything, and teases kindly, “I don’t see how you could’ve known any of that,”
Buck lets out an exhale in a rush, ducking his head, helpless to stop the beginnings of a bashful smile from peeking through, and makes himself peer back up, “Yeah, I—I guess so,”
“Well I know so,” Tommy says, eyebrows doing a very pointed lift, before breaking out into that light grin again, “You couldn’t have, and neither could I. That’s kind of how life works,”

Summary
Buck gives up on the swan that’s looking more and more like a misshapen duck, and just folds the napkin into a simple triangle, palms sweating, suddenly feeling like a fraud all over again. It's not like he even has to come out to Christopher right now, but – he wants to. He really wants to.
In the corner of his eye, he sees Eddie quietly emerge from the kitchen, leaning against the archway with one oven mitt still on. He looks at Buck and nods, ever so slightly, like he knows exactly what's going through his head. Buck takes a deep breath, and turns his chair to face Chris more fully.
"Um, Chris?"
“Yeah?” Chris squints at him suspiciously. Buck is silent and weird for a moment too long apparently because Chris huffs out, "Why do you look like you're about to ask me to bury a body?"

Summary
Stiles is a first-class citizen of the Kingdom. He’s held in the highest regard and treated as a precious doll. Stiles thinks he’s a prisoner. He’s watched every waking and sleeping moment of the day to make sure he maintains the proper decorum of an Omega.
When he’s gifted to Alpha Lord Hale, he thinks his days of a lonely, lustful Omega are over. But there’s nothing ‘sexy’ about his marriage, not when the sex is observed. It’s a function to further an elite bloodline. It’s a ritual—The Ritual—with privacy sheets and attendants who witness the pathetic joining between an Alpha and his Omega.
Stiles is destined to never feel a hard cock in his hand, not even his own. He’ll never have an orgasm and never have that aching emptiness deep within him filled. Or will he? 😉
