The High Price of Love is a Kirk/Spock story by Ann Carver.

It was published in the print zine First Time #5.

Summary

"Missing for six months, Spock is found in a pleasure house by Kirk and McCoy, addicted to a drug that causes uncontrolled arousal."

Excerpt

"Lt. Rivers looked at Kirk and shook his head in wonder. "Captain Kirk, I've been using this enhancer for many years and this is the first time I've ever seen it give a true likeness of a person without requiring any changes. A remarkable feat of memory." Kirk blushed self consciously. "It's easy to describe Mr. Spock. He's a unique individual." "Well," the lieutenant said, slapping his thigh. "It's time for me to get to work. Don't worry, Captain, we'll find your Mr. Spock."

Reactions and Reviews

"The High Price for Love," by Ann Carver. It's difficult to pick a favorite, but this is definitely in the running. Spock is abducted and taken into slavery with the help of an illegal drug. McCoy and Kirk find him, and the rest is a moving story of love and friendship as the two work to save Spock and help him through the terrible withdrawal from the drug. I loved it. [1]
