The Dark Dryad #2

The Demon's Pleasure Toy

Rate this book
Hesperus has ensnared a beautiful, eager concubine. Now it's time to shape him into a sensual plaything fit for a demon king.
A vessel for all of his darkest urges.
Ethan's training will be deep and thorough.

His new pet is hungry for every inch of Hesperus' powerful body. He's sweetly submissive and willing to endure every ordeal the demon puts him through.
Why isn't Ethan cowering in terror?
Even more confusing, it appears his human is a truthseer.
Hesperus will need to keep him blindfolded and very distracted...

And if his human is warning him that things in his fortress are not as they appear? Should he even listen? Can he trust him?

After all, Hesperus never claimed to be nice or good. Ethan will be molded with frustration and torment.
The demon will ensure that they both enjoy every second of it.

IIIII

This novella is the sequel to "The Demon's Snare." It contains graphic scenes of consensual gay BDSM, including chastity, orgasm denial and impact play.

It is the second book in a paranormal erotic series written in the 'Vines' universe. It ends on a cliffhanger. The final book of this trilogy is still being written. (The book 'Pumpkins' continues Ethan and Hesperus' story, but it is not written from their POV.)

The first half was amazing, the 2nd half spends a lot of time speculating on the true identities of all these different demon lords, but overall I'm still very happy with this book.


Edit:
Re-read December 2024:

The second time round I wasn't nearly half as annoyed with the introduction of the other demon lords. There weren't that many. Curious to see where the series will go from here.

I have questions…

This is supposed to be full-on, no playing around SMUT, right?! WHY IS THERE SO MUCH PLOT?! WHY ARE THE CHARACTERS AMAZING?! THAT STORY THO!! Y’all, for real. There’s some seriously bad ass stuff going on here. There’s insane plot, mystery, a story that won’t quit, intriguing and awesome characters, and smutty, spicy goodness that’s almost too much to handle. This little trilogy has blown my mind in the best of ways. This author needs more credit. I want to be friends so I can pick their brain.. it’s such an intense and stunning place, obviously. I’ve read 900 page fantasies with less creativity and heart.

Incredibly hot, and a decent plot

So I have my doubts about who really is the Fallen One - I personally think that Hesperes’ friend is merely a front for the one who’s really in charge. If I’m right, Ethan is likely in a whole lot of danger, but (hopefully) they’ll find both truth and help at the club.
