🎄 Reduced Sentence; Increased Pulsse (Patreon)

Sometimes justice takes a detour.

Sometimes education becomes… hands-on.

And sometimes a routine apprehension turns into a lesson in Earth customs that no one was prepared for.

This new holiday short story features Phenomenal Lass and Miss Match in a rare, intimate moment where heroism, mischief, and Christmas tradition collide. When Miss Match negotiates a reduced punishment in exchange for teaching Phenomenal Lass about mistletoe, neither of them is quite ready for how close the lesson gets — or how much unspoken tension has been hanging in the air all along.

Phenomenal Lass remains completely, dangerously innocent of the effect she has on others.Miss Match… absolutely is not.

Snow falls. Lights glow. Expectations shift.

And a very specific holiday ornament becomes the most powerful object in the room.
