Extra Info: I swear I was possessed when I wrote this but now you're noticing a corporate office pun theme for these stories aren't you.
Rating: Explicit
Genre: It's more or less a charming piece of pwp.

Notes:

I CAN'T STOP LAUGHING AT MY TITLE. I'm proud of it, okay. I'm officially taking corporate office puns for future smut fics for these characters, send me an ask if you have any. You never know.

I can't not write Raine as asexual. Anyway, this is your 1,000th reminder that ace =/= no partner or no sex, just a lack of sexual attraction. Ace people still sometimes want sex or feel the urge to have sex. Raine's all about being able to just jump right on in lmao. Foreplay? What foreplay? Why waste time on that??

It just felt like a very Raine way to enjoy sex. It lets her skip all the awkward intimacy. And yeah, she would think it'd be kind of hot for him to bring "professor" as a title into sex. Not all the time, but sometimes. Kinda spicy of him, really (but only because she views him as her equal lol).

I've been thinking about writing this story for months lmao. C'mon. You know it had to happen. The handcuffs. His pants. Also, I gave the man some body hair. A lil happy trail as a treat.

I hope this was almost painfully in character right down to the dialogue. I worked hard on it!

One last thing. The "I'm a healer" line is meant to imply she can prevent or dissolve a pregnancy. She's not out here tryna get knocked up. You might think Regal's awfully trusting but it's not every day a beautiful woman asks you first thing in the morning if you'd like to go to pound town. More accurately though, he's just pretty sure she wouldn't lie.
