Petals Of Discontent: A Death Blooms World Novella

Rate this book
The artist used me as his canvas, carefully crafting and lovingly transforming me into his perfect masterpiece. But when I saw myself in the mirror, there was a monster looking back at me. Everything I ever was has been stripped away from me. Am I even human anymore? The perfect little pet... that's what he made me to be, right before he shipped me off to the highest bidder, the one who commissioned him to do this. I may be a monster, but my master is the devil incarnate, and his cruelty knows no bounds. This is a Death Blooms World Novella set in the the world of Death Blooms written by Yolanda Olson

I’m absolutely blown away with what goes on in this authors head. I didn’t read anything of this book until I jumped in. I had faith in this author and I wasn’t wrong. She has given us a story that had me thinking omg. A story not for everyone but a story I inhaled.

Absolutely brilliant read that will stay with me for a long time.

This is part of A Death Blooms World Novella and can be read on its own.

This story perfectly fits into the Death Blooms world and I’ll pre-warn you that while it maybe horrifying, you won’t want to stop reading for one single minute. With a gripping flow of worlds, Pet’s story will hit you hard as you witness her traumatic existence as she learns to cope with her Master requirements and her creator’s artistic vision. Ms Vance has excelled in producing a standout story that will never leave a reader’s mind.

I absolutely LOVED this book!!!! This whole world is just INCREDIBLE. But this certain one, was my FAVORITE! I loved "Pet" and her tenacity and strength for all the went through. I found myself looking for ways that "Master" was better than "Artist" but nobody could outshine Gray. But I will say, I didn't hate "Master" at all. There was something about him that just spoke to me. I cannot wait for all the other stories in this world! This was ABSOLUTELY PERFECT 5 STARS.

Warning: this book is not for the weak. With that said and knowing that it was not a book in my comfort zone holy hell I need more books like this. It was dark, twisted, and just plain wrong but I couldn't get enough. I loved every single part even while feeling completely wrong for those feelings. I haven't read the death blooms books but I certainly am going to now. A must read if you are strong enough. 😈

I have received an ARC copy of this book by Ally and leaving my honest review.

I have just finished this deliciously dark book and I feel like this is Ally's darkest book yet. I could feel the desperation and anguish flying off the pages while reading this gem. From the first pages you can hear the Pet crying out for help. Although she is transformed to be something else but human, she tries so hard to hold on to her humanity. Master made me feel like I just wanted to punish and degrade him the way he did to others. I love Ally's writing and this was very heart wrenching. No one expect a HEA from this book !! If you know Yolanda and Ally you know not to expect an ordinary HEA. I can't wait to read more of the Death Blooms World novellas.

I am so glad I read Death Blooms before this one it made the whole story come together. This is one horrific terrifying sick dark twisted story that is so painful and I can't imagine anyone doing this but it happened and it hurts your heart for Pet and you can feel her pain right down to your very soul.
My god this story just blows my mind and is unforgetable and I hope we see much more of Artist and Pet . Writing is very descriptive and leaves nothing out and I loved that.

Oh boy wth did I just read😳 I cannot even begin to tell about this story. I felt like the whole time I was reading I was reading Frankenstein omg this book was so damn good and it's just a novella I can't imagine what the whole book will encompass, but you can bet I'll be here for it. This is absolutely a must read.

My girl understood the assignment!
No ideas this was pet of Yolanda Olsens’s Death Blooms world. I skimmed over death blooms then went back and read it- all because of this book. Great character development, and the sinister thoughts of the “master” has me on edge. If this was made into a full length, I’d gobble it up.

Well this was definitely an interesting story between pet And Master. Aly Vance has a twisted mind to think up this story line, but I liked the twisted storyline alot! I was craving more than this short read which is always a sign of a good read. Didn't want to put it down once I started.

Good

Interesting. A unique view on this type of story. The modifications were…. Wow And the author made me feel empathy for her. But a non romance dark twisted story.

If you read Death Blooms then you will know exactly who this book is about. Told in her POV. And you will also understand Grays advice. Quick crazy read!!

Feels unfinished

I really disliked this story. There was no suspense, no hero. It’s just a story of someone going through pain, the end. I would skip it.
