The Seventh Wave is a Star Wars TPM slash story by Destina Fortunato with Qui-Gon/Obi-Wan and other pairings.

Summary: This Alternate Universe Novel takes place at the same time as The Phantom Menace, but in a world where the Jedi have already been destroyed, and the Sith rule. An ancient prohibition against creating more than two Sith Lords has been completely disregarded. In this universe, there are pleasure slaves, seraglios (harems) and violence, as well as power and control issues, and vastly different characters than you might be used to. Please consider this your warning. This novel contains O/Other, Q/Other and Q/O/Other scenarios. It also contains angst, drama, and first-time themes.

Recs and Reviews

A WIP that takes place in an AU where the Jedi are no more and the Sith rule. In a world where conspiracies for political powers reign, nothing is as it seems. Can't say much for a work that's still in progress, but I'm enjoying it so far. It's also refreshing to see a *submissive* Xanatos. Qui/Obi and Obi/Xanatos.
"He had trapped himself, made himself a prisoner by his own actions. Now he would have to decide if this man's life was more important than his freedom, and what he would do if the answer to that question went against everything he believed. And how he could remain a Jedi, if the Force had bound his heart to a Sith."[1]

– joy daydreams

This is a WiP that looks like it will never be finished but leaves off at a point where you don't feel too cheated. It's a really interesting take on the pleasure slave kink (and hey, who am I to say no to slavefic?) and a great piece.[2]
