The RA Volume IV: The Warrior's Tale (Patreon)

More RA IV for you. Kind of. I want to be up front with everybody that this is not your typical Ice Bear story. It's not really even erotica. (You might squeeze a drop or two out of it, but for the most part.) This one comes with legit trigger warnings for sexual violence, self-harm, and suicidal urges.

That said... this is a thing I wrote. I personally like it, but it won't be for everybody. This chapter of The RA IV follows Amy, one of the few sophomores on Higgins 3 and sort of a wallflower heretofore. Suffice to say that Amy is dealing with some shit. This is only a spoiler for the first page or so, but she winds up with a really, really terrible guy who is really, really terrible to her. It's a story about struggles and hardships and coping mechanisms both healthy and self-destructive. It's also a great look at some of our Hotties from the inside, how they interact with trauma and companionship. It's humanizing and horrifying and hopefully ultimately a little satisfying.

If it doesn't sound like your cup of tea, I'd say give it a go and see, but no worries if it's not for you. You won't miss anything plot crucial with a skip here except from the basic notion already spelled out here that Amy's life is hard. I promise, the rest of RA4 is more in line with what you saw in Shauna's and Toni's stories, good old smut with the occasional feels. For tonight though, here's Amy, and I hope reading this does for you at least a little of what writing it did for me.

More to come. (But not more like this, I swear.)
