Early Bird: The Honey Trap
Added 2018-12-02 19:31:08 +0000 UTCIn which Alrek tries to deliver a mischievous fairy to the Verdant Ward—and gets caught up in the charms of three sweet Thriae who are eager for a challenge.
This was a really, really fun story to write, and I hope it shows. The alt-end will be up sometime this month, though I've got no current scheduling plans for it, so no promises on it being prompt!
This story is non-canon. Putting Alrek on the Wild Continent would be fun, but canonically, he's never been on such a journey—yet, anyways. Verre might reappear later on, though. I like her. In general, I think the "extremely rude but irresistible tiny hypnotist" is a trope I really like writing, and it pairs well with the Thriae, who adore humiliating their victims. And they pair well enough with Alrek, the man who hates being embarrassed, so well I can't believe this is his first written encounter with Thriae.
Special thanks to Craving Oyer, who actually volunteered to help edit this chapter and get it completed so soon! I love my readers sometimes. Okay, I'm kidding, I love y'all all the time. ;D
