This story was recently nominated for a 2007 Stargate Fan Award. To make things simpler, I am reposting the story as one two posts, so that pieces and parts don't go missing as people look for it. :) (Apparently it's too long to put up as one post, so it's now two)
Title: Keep Your Head Above Water

Pairing: Sheppard/Beckett
Words: ~13,000
Warnings:: This story focuses on the recovery from non-consentual sex.
A/N: This is an
Irresistible tag. You know the part where John's in the cell and Lucius makes that remark about all six wives at once? That was when I realized that he was totally a sexual predator.
maisfeeka,
ladykoori and
kyrdwyn all offered invaluable beta advice on this one. In fact this story is literally 10,000 words longer than it was originally going to be because of their feedback. (Seriously, I thought I was done at 3500 words. They went, Uh... no.)
Summary: “Did he talk you into doing something you didn’t want to do? ... Like getting you into bed with him?”
