When Trig was a soldier he hated it. He lived in a castle and had no friends. He tried to help people and things went wrong. He got labeled as stupid.

Virgil consulted for a slaughterhouse. A "Judas" goat goes in first. Herd animals follow. It's instinct.
Virgil thinks of himself as that goat.
No matter his intent, he's a cog in machinery designed to grind people into money.
But in Hell...?

Raven grew up well off but hates it. She prefers to live off the land and whatever she earns. She doesn't ever haggle because she wants people to be paid for their work.
Trig feels the same, except if he had his way he would be giving everyone his money because he feels bad.

When it comes to getting personal stuff, Virgil doesnโt care much. His petty cash is mostly spent on overly generous tips.
Virgil is the king of quid pro quo, so if he always goes for solving a problem to get stuff for free if he can swing it.

Crossing over between real life and fetlife Do you ever find yourself thinking about this? I mean, yes, of course many of you do this already: open the door between your fetlife self and your everyday self. And that's wonderful! I'm speaking instead to those who, like myself, keep that barrier up, for reasons of discretion. But I think about what it would be like to break down that wall, just once, to let my friends and family into my alternate world. It would be liberating! But, scary at the same time. What do you think? Or, have you taken that leap, and opened up the door? I really want to know.
Just posted this over on another site and I wanted to share it with you because I'd really be curious to know your thoughts!

Raven got her name from having a pet Raven as a child. (She refuses to be called her real name).
She made the black feathers that would fall out into quills for her brother Percy to write with. He still has them on his desk as an adult.

Between the first and second book Raven and Trig are living together in their own little cottage.
Most nights are spent under candle light and near a fire.
Trig tries hard to do special things for Raven, and Raven tries hard not to burn things when she cooks.
Two red books are stacked on top of each other and there is a red rose with green leaves around it lying down on the book at the top. The title of the story Fair Enough by Anna Verner is written over the book pages.
My spicy short story Fair Enough is up on my Itch page for Valentine's Day.
It is about two people that meet at a book fair.
anna-verner.itch.io
At the top is the title text โGood Boys Donโt Howlโ On a background of a brick wall lit with the colors of the bisexual pride flag is the shadow of a howling werewolf and a rain of red feathers. Over the shadow is a neon mouth with red lips and white vampire fangs and a blue and purple hand with a raised index finger in a shushing gesture. Below that is a tagline: โpop goes the werewolfโ
THE COTTON CANDY OF DARK ROMANCE
Wulf discovers being a werewolf means no orgasms, unless he wants his lovers to run out screaming, so his hot roommates help him train to resist.
But when Sky, vampire S&M club owner comes, will Wulf?
