“When is a monster not a monster? Oh, when you love it.” ― Caitlyn Siehl

we were all trying to cram in as many drinks as possible before prices doubled like the fiscally responsible degenerates we were.

A weighty reminder of what it was to be a king. Soon I’d have a queen of my own to suffer alongside me.

“I require a drink.” Of spiced wine. And perhaps my new bride’s pussy, since we were supposed to consummate this damn arrangement for it to be valid.

Seriously, I was one muttered complaint about how slow my human legs moved away from whispering, ‘sorry, Monster Daddy,’ and dropping to my knees to ask for forgiveness.

And without the oversized hoods covering their faces, I was getting a close up look at a Shade’s face for the first time, and me likey.

if there was one thing I was good at, it was filling silence with inane chatter.

“Strange little thing, aren’t you?”
