Serving Haul #1
Serving Haul
As the son of the tribe’s second most influential family, Siril’s fate was sealed by the law: he had to serve the son of the first family, the heir to the throne, Haul. That brat.
This was not at all how Siril imagined his life in the post-apocalypse. Surviving the war, the chaos, the end of the world, Siril had every right to think that life had already prepared him for everything. It hadn’t. Apparently. Not for Haul.
“You’ve got everything you need? Can I go?” Siril asked strictly.
Haul blinked twice in rapid succession with that innocent look Siril was already so familiar with. If he didn’t know it was honest from him, he would have thought Haul practiced it. He was beautiful, angelic, always, even now, unfairly.
“I’ve got everything, just…” Haul answered, then trailed off.
“Just?”
“It’s just… this is the coat I can’t take off alone, you know.”
Siril kept watching him until Haul blushed a deep red. Only then he stepped closer and started to open the straps on his shoulder. He saw Haul’s eyes flutter shut from the first touch; the collar chafed his neck and Siril ached to soothe it, he carefully ran a thumb over it. Already that made Haul gasp.
* * *
Haul’s and Siril’s is a love story with intense emotions, spirited heroes, and mind blowing sex. It is a 14k word roller coaster, where you will find gay romance and erotica with a delicious dom-sub dynamic, not the usual master-servant relationship ~ with a pinch of humour, heaps of yearning, and the indispensable happy ending, all in a low fantasy setting.
Serving Haul is the first stand-alone story of a limited series. The series will unfold the most exciting and crucial moments of our heroes’ love life. Each episode is enjoyable as a stand-alone read, and each is intended for adults only. It contains explicit homoerotic scenes.

Okay, it sure wasn’t the perfect read or perfectly written, but it was a cute, sweet little story.
To be honest, I was a bit lost, I missed a story about the previous two years, that would have been great to read. Now we meet them for the first time after already two years. I had to guess what those years were about, how their dynamic was, how they got here, what their personalities are. The author made a choice to do it this way, I’m sorry, for me it didn’t work.
Like the blurb says Siril must serve the heir of the throne. It’s for two years. He has deep feelings for Haul.
When there are females found in the woods, the clan is in ecstasy, the chance for children.
Haul isn’t happy and doesn’t want to return to his tent with a waiting female for him.
The sexual part was attractive. Zooming out I can see the content, but while reading it was a bit confusing, I had to guess too much, the circumstances, the characteristics, the environments. I would have loved more development on every front. To be honest the blurb tells more than the story itself. For me, it didn’t deliver what it promised.
After saying all this, what was written, was enjoyable, it was a sweet, short, fast-paced story. Three small hearts for this one.

FIVE STARS!
What a delicious story!
Did I love it? Yes! Do I want more? Also yes!
The romance was deep and heartwarming, and the sex scenes were INTENSE on an emotional and a physical level. I am a total sucker for such dom/sub dynamics!
I also enjoyed the post-apocalyptic vibe of the whole story, and the 2 lovers were really cute and fierce and hot!
Siril’s personality is really fun so he pulled me in right away, and I rooted for him to stand up against Haul… until I realized that they were actually totally into each other. After that I was biting my nails for them to get together, which they did in the most satisfying ways I could imagine, and multiple times, hehe
All in all, I’m super happy I found this story and that it will be a series!! I recommend it to anyone who is into steamy m/m stuff. ^^

wow, how do I even start to comment on this story!
I absolutely loved the style of the author, it’s the perfect mix of sweet and passionate. The characters are irresistible and their master/servant relationship makes it all so hot! Their attraction is overwhelming and their getting together is really bumpy so the ending *spoiler* when they finally get it on was just incredibly satisfying AHH!!
Do not, I repeat do not read it at work (or on the bus like I did :’( ) because the smexy scenes get really hot!!
5 stars and I only wish it was longer! but it will be a series, hell yeah I can’t wait! I hope the next episodes will be as good as this was!

No zombies... but, there is Biting, and there is some swallowing of human meat... 😉 😉
Serving Haul was a great short story with some really steamy, sexy scenes. I skipped cardio today, but that's okay because Serving Haul got the heart pumping and the blood flowing!

A Joyfully Jay review.
2.5 stars
This short story is the first entry in the Serving Haul series and takes place in a post-apocalyptic world where … bad things happened? People, at least the people of Siril’s geographic area, have splintered into tribes and clans who are constantly at war. One tribe (all tribes, other than the Sara Clan, are nameless in this book) found Haul’s tribe’s women and children helpless and undefended and slaughtered them, leaving Haul’s people without a single female of any kind. It’s intimated that Siril’s clan has women and children, but he’s been gone from them for two years and any relationships between his tribe and Haul’s is never mentioned.
