A Streak of Lightning – New Aubrey & Lindsey Story on Patreon!

A brand new short story featuring Aubrey & Lindsey of Mr Warren’s Profession is now on Patre♡n! Wherein Aubrey discovers an alarming development in his wash-stand mirror.

~

Aubrey had not read the novel by Lord Graves’s playwright acquaintance. He had however heard its details discussed at length over the course of several dinners. He knew that it involved a beautiful youth who had a devilish portrait painted to age in his place, and for every sin the dissipated lad committed, the portrait grew more hideously withered. Aubrey had no such portrait. His own sins could only bear out upon his flesh, and he supposed, with more resignation than bitterness, that given the life he’d led it was more surprising he hadn’t found anything more than a single grey hair ‘til now.

Chapter Seventeen of Theo – a transmasc historical MM romance inspired by Little Women – is up on Patre♡n, wherein a splendid party is attended.

~

“What have you done?” Myrtle continued in a furious whisper. “Entertaining gentlemen at a hotel? Are you deranged?”

Theo hoped the truth might set him free—from Myrtle’s claws, if nothing else. “Leslie invited me, as a fellow gentleman, to join him and his school-friends for a perfectly respectable dinner.”

Myrtle stared at him. “You’re not even ashamed.”

“I’ve done nothing to be ashamed of.”

“Leslie?” Theo croaked, struggling to rise.

Leslie shushed him and laid the back of his hand against Theo’s brow. This light touch alone held Theo in place, too weak to contest it. His skin felt as dry and hot as burnt toast. Leslie withdrew his hand and reached for the wash-cloth in the bowl of lavender water on the night-stand. Returning to bathe Theo’s forehead, he found Theo staring at him with fever-bright eyes.

“Is it really you?” Theo said, his whisper like the creaking of the garden gate.

“Yes,” Leslie told him, applying the wash-cloth. Theo’s eyes closed at once; Leslie hoped that meant his ministrations were working. “Yes, it’s me. Hush now. Save your strength.”

“Leslie,” Theo murmured regardless.

Chapter Fourteen of Theo – a transmasc historical MM romance inspired by Little Women – is up on Patreon, wherein an ultimatum is issued.

~

“What have you done,” Mother whispered, touching the remnants of Theo’s hair with as much hesitation as if she touched a thicket of nettles. She hadn’t yet looked Theo in the eye again, but kept staring at the top of his head in open horror. “Oh, what have you done?”

“What was necessary,” Theo answered.
