Numb3rs Series: The Art of Seduction

It was never my intention to write all four September prompts for numb3rs100. But, the ideas just kept coming. News stories, blog posts, you name it, I used it.

Each week as a new prompt was released, my muse supplied me with a story and a new pairing. The one thing they all had in common was Billy Cooper. I think I've become a bit obsessive about Max Martini, but can you really blame me?

What I tried to explore, using these prompts, is Billy's conquests. Well, the first story, The Velvet Dog, is more about Billy being caught off guard by someone he hadn't considered a romantic interest. And who knows? Maybe Don is the one who shocked Billy into going after what he wants. At any rate, I tried to show Billy as the predator, as the one not afraid to take what he wants. And that includes finally admitting to himself that he wants to settle down, and going after the one person he knows can make him happy.

At this point, the series is finished. That has never stopped my muse before. /glares at muse/ So, I will simply say that if inspiration strikes, I certainly wouldn't mind revisiting this series. The posts listed below are in chronological order, as opposed to the order they were written in, so that they make more sense.
