It was in the stargazing dome of the Havragar Monastery that they told him he had to marry a man...
A pious young lord sees in the Stars that God wants him to marry a man: a widower to a late ruler of a distant province. A pagan. A sinner. A foreigner. A huge, forty-year-old beast with snakes and spiders tattooed on his body. What will he choose to do, if being with a man means deadly sin and immense shame, and defying the Stars means something even worse?

I'm falling for you, Professor | ✔️
✔️ | "I have half the mind to drop you right here and fuck you against this wall, but I can think of some better things we can do in the bed." I replied, speaking sensually in his ear. "Well get to it then, professor." For years I was living my dream as an archaeologist, travelling the world with the love of my life. Everything was magnificent until we made a discovery that resulted in the death of my soul mate. Now at the age of 35, my life consists of teaching History as a professor at the University of California in Berkeley, CA. Living the same old, consistent routine on repeat. That is until a cocky young man catches my eye. He's beautiful, confident, and a pain in my ass. He's ignited a flame deep in my bones. A flame I thought would never be lit again.

Into The Woods - a Naga Love Story
This is a human x naga romance novel, so its not for everyone. There are inhuman aspects to the body of one of the characters (obviously) but they fall in love and get sexy anyway. You've been warned. Nash is retired. After seven years of fighting in a war on behalf of an empire that wasn't his home, he was granted citizenship and retirement. He can live in style the rest of his days... but Nash isn't interested in living in style. Instead, he claims a secluded cabin that was built in an ancient, unsettled forest. He wants to start fresh, and forget the things he did during the war. But the townsfolk in the nearby village are whispering about monsters in the woods. They warn him that he'll die if he stays out there. And there is something out there. Something big. But Chass, the monster, is the one who is in for a surprise. Nash's people don't believe in monsters. They believe in gods. What will this monster do when the human he's decided to kill worships him? It's frustrating, and totally not what he planned! Why is the warrior making little wooden shrines to him? Why does the human bow and say he's alright with Chass taking his life? This annoying human who is a competent warrior, a strong and independent man with soft hair and soft skin, who says Chass can do whatever he wants...wait... wait.... this just might work out. TW: sexual content, explicit content and language, violence, fantasy death, hunting animals/prey Kinks: praise kink (literally, Chass really likes that Nash thinks he's a god), size difference, monster dick, a little interesting bondage and immobilization, lots of "say I'm your prince" and "you're mine" and possessive behavior, yay!Complete
