Discovering the Ligon
Warning: This story is for mature audiences only. It contains language and scenes that would get this story rated R if it was a movie. It is also RH - reverse harem. Blurb: When you make friends as children, you imagine you'll stay friends forever. It's a childlike hope and guilelessness about the real world. I had that with Ryker, Ryan, and Zeke. But everything changed when we turned 15. Ryan left first. Distanced himself from our group. Then Ryker and Zeke. Ryker abandoned me to the gossip from the incident while Zeke watched me verbally, and sometimes physically, be harassed. No one cared. Not them. Not the adults, the protectors in the Pride. I was an outcast because of my birth. The abomination that shouldn't exist. Finally, my 18th birthday was coming up. I could leave. Be free from the ridicule and dirty looks. Snide comments. Until Ryker returned with a secret about me and all hell broke loose. The question is... Will the guys stay this time or leave me to face this secret alone?Complete
