Adult Changeling: Chapter 3
When she’d run out of tears, Mariah had been laid in a patch of soft moss and grass. Long strands of grass rose over her and curved inward, making an effective sun shade. Still naked except for a makeshift diaper, she appreciated the shade. Mariah didn’t know if she could get a sunburn in Faerie, …
Adult Changeling: Chapter 2
Roan rose from the odd-smelling bed and stretched her arms to work the soreness of shapeshifting out. Lord Ehadenther and Wunk were already gone, she could hear their steeds’ hoofbeats receding from the human house.

Magic Accidents: Chapter 1
“Belade, you’re going to break it!” Athiss fretted behind his friend. He’d have liked to pull her away from his crystal garden, but she had her hands on the delicate main cluster. One wrong move and it’d crack, destroying three years of growth. “It’s fine! You’re too precious about your crystals, that’s why you’re always …
Stuffie Quest: Prologue
Alanna watched her Little, Briana, as she fell into a deep sleep. She smiled fondly, the dark brown embroidery of her lips curling. It had been strange at first to be called as the stuffie to an adult baby girl. Mere days into her life with Briana, Alanna realized that her Little had as great …
