March 9, 2019: Now a published story, available in ebook and paperback on Amazon (free on KU!). The three first chapters will remain on Wattpad. *** Short-tempered Lana Martin is a workaholic consultant based in Tokyo. Not one to turn down a challenge, she accepts the indecent proposal of her martial arts instructor to become his submissive in a dynamic that tests her resilience. Spreading like wildfire, their affair lights up another blaze, this time between Lana and Honda's wife, the sophisticated socialite Yuki. Fearless, Lana embraces what her two masters offer her. Yet, unbeknown to her, their powerful desire rouses ancient Japanese demons who have waited for decades to claim their prizes. Lana must confront the enemy eating her from within, while pulling back Honda from the edge of madness. Yuki's unwavering strength will keep them sane - but for how long? A two-edged sword, the trio's fiery passion will either destroy them or be the key to their salvation.

BOOK 2 OF THE TEMPER SAGA **Explicit** (Book 1 is WP Featured!🌟) Now an ebook and paperback available on Amazon (free on KU!). The three first chapters remain available on Wattpad. With the hot and humid months of the year upon Tokyo, tempers and bodies are even quicker to burst into flames. Honda and his tough demands prove to be a challenge to handle, but Lana finds great satisfaction at showing she can do it, while embracing what Yuki offers her. Still, for all the pleasure she draws from her relationship with her two companions, all is not glossy and perfect in her new world. As an unexpected discovery forces the trio to rethink their relationship and future together, shapeless and mortal danger looms on the horizon, forcing Honda to finally confess to Lana why he chose her: the boundless thirst animating them has dark, cursed roots. Hurt and betrayed by his deception, Lana nearly walks out, until she realises he's not the only one with a sword hanging above his head. They have no choice. Only together will they stand a chance to face those threats. Even if it means lying to everyone else - including their dear Yuki.
