About Tristan is an erotic short story written for my own entertainment in times of self-isolation. I choose to call this genre heat erotica. It’s inspired by omegaverse romance, but I adjust the “rules” as I see fit. All sexual interactions between the main characters are consensual.

Queer fiction author Roe Horvat was born in the former Czechoslovakia. Equipped with a dark sense of sarcasm and a penchant for Czech beer, Roe traveled Europe and finally settled in Sweden. He came out as transgender in 2017 and has been fabulous since. He loves Jane Austen, Douglas Adams, bad action movies, stand-up comedy, pale ale, and daiquiri, with equal passion. When not hiding in the studio doing graphics, he can be found trolling cafés in Gothenburg, writing, and people-watching.

This is for fans of Horvat and ABO!!

A very nice shorty when one needs a bit of KNOTTING in their life. Told in the pov of Walter Sebastien, alpha extraordinaire who helps omegas, with or without partners, through their heats.

Explicit as all ABO’s should be, but if that’s not your jam, then please try something else from Horvat! You won’t be disappointed!

The heat is on!

Roe Horvat is offering tasty morsels, namely two free short stories available via Prolific, in an omegaverse we are going to find out more about very soon.

Walter is a heat teacher, and I guess that gives you an idea what this is all about.
5000 words of delicious sizzle, urgent desire and intense alpha/omega mating. And, in case you're wondering, there is a good touch of love,too.

Can’t wait for the new book!

This may have only been a mere 27 pages, but I was here for every minute of this deliciously smutty ABO short.

Horvat calls this heat erotica and I couldn’t be more into the idea of this sub-genre if I tried.

Seriously, I LOVE omegaverse stories—you can’t blame a girl for craving a bit of primal knotting every once in a while—but pair that with Horvat’s deeply emotive prose and his tantalising personal brand of erotica, and I’m 100% in!

This was sensual, sexy and captivating, and I for one can’t wait to read more!

*evil smirk* I'd have loved to see Tristan get his first heat with Walter - different story, hope we'll get it some day!

I'm loving Roe Horvat's Omegaverse shorts, they're just beautifully written and I hope the series continues.

I have read these shorts a while back when I was reading Roe Horvat's back to back(read fluffy smutathon ). They are in based in the same omegaverse as 'Devoted' and 'Innocent'.

Gorgeous perfection! This isn't smut, it's art. OK, so I feel a little stupid saying that, but...yeah. I'm sticking by it anyway. Bellissimo!

Always wanted to read this as Walter Sebastian is a favorite Roe Horvat character. I was surprised that he was just a place holder in this short story. No heat sex with the first time omega while waiting for their boyfriend to arrive.

This short was an Omega story and I don't read Omega at all but I love this author. I don't know the ins and outs of Omega, it seems the male goes into heat, that is what this story focused on, Tristans heat and his boyfriend trying to reach him in time. As clueless as I was I did enjoy this, I really liked the Teacher, a kind and gentle man helping Tristan through his first, and painful, heat. This author always gives a good read.

Cawpile: 8.71 4.5*

I’ve not read any of this genre before except some questionable fanfic a few years back, so it was nice when this quad of novellas dropped in my email. They are a really nice intro to the genre I think, nothing too extreme, but not 100% vanilla either.
All in all a lovely series of Novellas.

Novella in Series:
1. About Tristan
2. The Thing Woth Etiénne
3. Alec & Henry
4..Caleb’s First
