Bondage, Pacifiers, and the Roar of Gunfire

You can change your name. You can run across continents. But you can't escape your blood.

River Blackwood wasn't always River Blackwood. He used to be River Silverbloom, son of an arranged marriage that ended in gunfire. His mother loved a man who could never love her back, he was gay. When she found out the truth, she made her choice and shot him.
With her brother Alaric Zoric's help, Helena fled to America with River, erasing their past.

But secrets don't die. They reload.

When River's mother discovers he's gay too, history nearly repeats itself. He escapes because the gun malfunctions and kills his mom instead, River flees, broken but alive, to the quiet village of Redstone Falls.

In Redstone Falls, River's life begins to change. He meets a best friend who becomes his anchor, and two dominant lovers, Cole and Zane who are more than just partners. They are his caregivers, his protectors, who understand his need for structure, protocols, and the comfort of his little space.

Introducing him to the tender power exchange of BDSM, they offer River a world where submission isn't weakness but a path to healing. Through their care, patience, and dominance, River learns to accept all parts of himself, soft, vulnerable, and strong.

But River's bloodline is built on trauma. And someone is ready to collect what's his. The Zoric name still carries weight. And blood never forgets.
