Callsign: Elite (Lesbian Story)
When Riley Rowden first saw Vera Lisetsky fly, her life was changed forever. After many years of working towards one goal, to be the best pilot the world has ever seen, she finally makes it into her dream aerobatic flight school, owned and run by Lisetsky herself. It was everything she could've hoped for, but what she didn't expect was being in the same class and squadron as Vera Lisetsky's very own daughter, Nikita. It becomes clear that Nikita is leagues ahead of the rest of the squadron, but Riley has been studying for this very moment, and quickly gives Nikita a run for her money. A rivalry sparks between the two girls and only grows stronger when they are partnered up for duo formation flying. It sounds easy, but working in exact coordination with someone you are trying to beat is more challenging than it seems. Who can be the best? Who can outdo the other? Or is there more to this tension than just a rivalry? One girl is following her dream, the other is chasing the legacy her mother left behind. Will they crash and burn? Or will they become known as the elite? "It's just you and me up there, Lisetsky. You ready?" "Don't patronise me, Rowden. Of course I'm ready." © 2025 by Heather Darte
