When sexual slavery is outlawed, most of the rational world rejoices. Another shameful chapter of history, tucked neatly away. Rory doesn't want to rain on anyone's parade, but the thing he wants most in the world is impossible: to go home, to his master, where he was safe. Life without slavery isn't worth living. He dodges out of the "Freedom Project" with his new friend Demon, and vows to find his master, whatever it takes. He only hopes that once he does, life will go back to normal. Geo Fairbanks doesn't even tell people he used to own a slave. And the people who know? Think he's deluded. "The kid was a slave, Geo. He wasn't your boyfriend." He switched careers, moved to a new town, and cut ties with everyone, but none of it helps. He needs Rory. When it looks like there might be a way to find him, Geo does whatever it takes. Once they're reunited, everything should be perfect. Shouldn't it? Then why does Rory have more questions than answers? His friends are done with slavery, over it, moving on, but part of him? Part of him misses kneeling at Master's feet. A very specific part of him misses being tied to Master's bed. It would be one thing if Geo would just take over, like he did in the old days, but Geo's just as clueless as Rory about how to live with each other as equal men. Then the unthinkable happens and Geo finds himself searching for Rory all over again. Can he find Rory before he disappears into the new black market for slaves? And if he does, will they ever figure out how to be in a relationship not dictated by legal contracts dictating exactly what they mean to each other?

People say love conquers all, but that's a bunch of BS. Love doesn't really conquer anything. D doesn't believe in love. Sure, it exists-for other people. But any chance she might have had at love was pretty much taken care of by three years chained to a bed is some monster's back room. It doesn't matter how much she wants to take refuge in some stupid dream of curling up next to someone, or how often her friends nudge her in a very specific someone's direction, D's not taking chances. Sure, some people get to fall in love and live happily after. She just isn't one of them. Teddy didn't plan to fall for the young woman next door, but he can't seem to help it. That their two best friends are getting married doesn't help matters; all he really wants is one damn day without talking about weddings and cake choices and if the shade of D's dress is going to clash with the rose in his boutonniere. When a volunteer job turns into the biggest opportunity he's ever had, he realizes he's not exactly the brave one here. Maybe both of them could stand to take a risk. Can two people ever really commit to one another honestly? Or is true love-like the perfect wedding-just another myth? Warnings: Contains mentions of past sexual and physical violence, but no flashbacks or PTSD. Also, a trans main character who transitioned a long damn time ago.

But this is no shot at redemption--how could Des ever make up for what he's done? Des finds Orion's cabin in the snowcapped mountains. His strategy? Keep it professional and get out quick.
