Love how their relationship is being challenged at the same time they are becoming closer, so much more realistic than simply comfortably falling into place next to each other.

Hehe, can you tell that's what interests me most about this pairing? They are fighters before they are lovers - and its all the more delicious for it :D

As usual, I'm thrilled that you are sticking with this series, am beyond curious to see where it goes, and can't wait until the next installment.

This is a very muse-driven series, so I apologize for not updating it more often. This feels like the beginning of a story arc, though, so maybe the muses will be assuaged into working on it more than once every few months. The changes I inserted from the original contest entry are going to make it more twisty and complicated to unravel than I originally intended, but - that's all part of the fun, right?

So happy to hear you enjoyed!!
