I tried to make the title "Fi," but the board won't allow less than three characters.

Fi was the first of the many one night stands in Mentor (Chapter 2, First Night). I liked her as a character, and I didn't throw her under the bus at random (Chapter 15, Spirits). I did it because I felt she was less willing to accept the status quo than most. She went for what she wanted, and got slapped down for it. Admittedly, she didn't do it in a wise or honest way. She screwed up. But I still felt she was too interesting and, in a way, too honorable, to leave the story there.

She'd begun working on her redemption at the end of Mentor. But she had a lot to understand about herself, including how to respect herself without abandoning her principles. Thus Business Sense.

It was always intended to be a little more than just a sex story. What I didn't realize when I started writing it was how it would suggest a new branch for the Gabby's saga. I have outlines / partial progress on four separate stories leading from this. The binding feature of those stories is the wedding, but it was Business Sense which was the catalyst.

There will be five chapters, and they are complete, but still need reviewing and editing.

So excited to read this! Love watching the Gabby saga continue to grow. I think Alex could be another fun character to follow-up on because she had such a unique personality.

Do you have any new fav authors on Literotica or just in general that I should check out? I'm always on the hunt for new stories that match your quality for both story and seduction.

    fmerommel Funny you should say that...

    Alex is a little awkward, since the last time we heard from her she was leaving town and dating a guy. But yeah, there's a story in the works. Other than Alex it's mostly new characters.

    I haven't had a lot of time for reading lately. THBGato is still top of my list. I've read a couple of stories by OneHitWanda that have been excellent, but I'm sure they're already on your list anyway.

    So happy that I remembered FantOS after reading the 1st chapter of Business Sense on Literotica. I was just thinking "I could use some more HelenL stories" and was pleased to find more Business Sense.

    I really like the pace at which the relationship is developing. And the supporting cast is nice people. Right now, having an environment with a plethora of nice people just seems like such a luxury 😀

      Galadriel-fan I'm making a small change to chapter 5, which is something I've never done before (other than fixing spelling and grammer). It's mostly for support of the later stories, but also I think suits Kayla better.

      Heather is a close friend of Kayla's, of course, as are most of the cast, but I don't see her being maid-of-honor close, while mischievous Tiff definitely is. So I'm updating the meetings at Gabby's and Axe to have Tiff be M-O-H instead. It doesn't affect Jenna's story at all other than cosmetically. I'm glad I decided to do this before posting to Literotica.

      Chapter 2 will be going up there in a couple of days.

      Also, I'm going to stick with weekly posting at Literotica, even though this story doesn't really require it like Mentor did. Having a story pop into the "most recent" list occasionally seems to bump readership even of stories that have been around for a while. There's going to be a long gap after posting "Business Sense," though, and I'm wondering if I can find something to work on in the meantime.
