    Summary

    Rey is a master of handling crises—except for the Alpha-shaped wrecking ball that is her latest client, tech mogul Ben Solo. As determined as he is demanding, it seems Solo has focused his obsessive nature toward a single pursuit: making Rey's job as difficult as possible.

    So when Rey pairs with a partner on an anonymous Alpha encounter service, she decides to roll the dice. After all, their algorithm has apparently found her a perfect match.

    A night of mind-blowing sex should be the perfect distraction from her nightmare of a boss.

    Summary

    “This - this string. Don’t you feel it?” Ben brings his fist up to press against the side of his head, like he’s holding his skull together. “Ever since that day - ever since you reached into my head - there’s been this thread connecting us. I hear the music playing in your headphones. It never stops, not even when you sleep. I feel your presence in the city. I dream your dreams.”

    ---

    Rey can read and influence others’ thoughts, but she has never been able to control her own mind enough to learn how to stop doing so. When she uses her abilities to pick pockets at the art museum, she ends up trying to steal the wrong man’s wallet.

    She can’t influence his mind.

    And he can’t influence hers.

    Summary

    “Here you go,” Rey finds herself murmuring, keeping the strip of chicken still so the cat can inspect it, “all for you.”

    Her heart twists a bit upon seeing this cat up close. An old scar curves down its little face, barely missing its eye before it slips down to disappear under its chest. Rey doesn’t think she’s ever seen such dark irises on a cat before: chocolate brown, nearly as dark as the pupil in the low light. Like this cat was birthed from the night itself.

    ---

    It’s a cold dark night when Rey feeds the little stray cat she meets the rest of her rotisserie chicken. But her new companion is not all he seems.

    Based off of that one video with the black cat eating a rotisserie chicken on the sidewalk while Mamma Mia plays in the background. And Afterblossom’s amazing addition of the cat actually being demon Kylo in disguise.

    Summary

    Rey is done with the thankless, grueling work on Plutt's farm, and she surely has no desire to marry one of his foul business associates. She decides to escape to Chicago and start a new life, but to do that, she needs a horse.

    Ben Solo has kept to himself ever since his wife died nearly twenty years before. He prefers spending quiet days on his farm tending his crops and his animals. His peace is disturbed, however, when a pretty, young horse thief appears in his barn, badly injured.

    Anyone else would have shot the girl, but Solo senses there is more to her story.
