Ancilla: Serialized Edition
She had it all - riches, a college scholarship, a girlfriend - until her conservative, hyper-religious parents found out about the girlfriend and made her choose between conversion therapy and disownment. That was the end of her academic career.
Three years later:
She meets a shy public reference librarian in a bookstore.
He's been waiting his whole life for her. Meanwhile, she's starting her whole life over.
What ensues between the two neurodivergent lovers is magic. Given that he's about to become her tutor in the magickal and erotic arts, that's only to be expected.
But at what cost?
The mysterious older man is all she could ever have wished for, but she may need to choose between her developing identity and the most profound love she has ever known.
An awkward bookworm searching for her inner strength
A magus (and closet vampire) who also happens to be a sexual dominant
An age gap, a forbidden romance, and a quest for gnosis

This edition of Ancilla has been serialized for greater ease of smartphone use. Like the original edition, which was added to Wattpad After Dark's BDSM booklist on May 10, 2024, it contains mature and explicit material. Reader discretion is advised.
Readers who are stumbling on this novel in search of "spice" will find it, and it is hotter than a ghost pepper - however, be advised that compared to other books of this nature, Ancilla has a very slow burn, and there is more to the plot than just "spice."
Like all my other books, this novel is self-illustrated. Some of my art incorporates snipped pieces of AI-generated images that I rendered in Canva Pro. The other layers of my illustrations use free stock images, photographs taken by me or my husband, and public-domain fine art.
