Eyck didnโt need anyone.
Eyck lived a good life in South Galetsy. A respected blacksmith, he spent long days making swords for the Border War, and even though he ached by dayโs end, the last thing he thought he needed was an apprentice. He had his work and his best friend, Pash, and that was fine.
When Wex showed up on his stoop asking for work, Eyck agreed to take him onโno matter that Wex turned out to be prickly and secretive and an absolute bloody pain in the tail to work with. Wellโฆ mostly.
Wex didnโt want anyone.
Wex was tired of just scraping by. A freed slave and ex-convict, Wex was stubbornly determined not to let his breed caste or muteness stop him from carving out a decent life for himself. All he needed was a little help getting there.
Words like โtrustโ, โlove, or even โdesireโ werenโt part of Wexโs vocabulary, and he didnโt want them to beโthose words could enslave just as easily as iron. He was using the blacksmith to learn a skill, nothing more. Problem was, Wex couldnโt get Eyck out of his head.

Following the Prentish/Nemarri war, Kes is rejected by his homeland under the guise of religious purity laws. Though he's spared execution, the proud Nemarri's fate is only marginally more merciful than death when he is sold into sexual slavery at a prosperous pleasure house.
Despite his stoic endurance, Kes knows heโs reaching his breaking point, but there is nothing he can doโthere is no path to freedom in the Holy Prentish Empire, only a lifetime of humiliating servitude.
That is, until a beautiful young slave and his formidable master approach Kes in the marketplace and make an astonishing offer to take him home with them. The only problem: โhomeโ is the accursed Horthmont Castle from the scare-stories of Kesโs childhood.
Thrown into a world of living myth, powerful magic, and ancient gods, Kes learns the secrets kept hidden by Horthmontโs thick blackstone walls. There he discovers something he thought heโd never know again: hope for the future.

Woke up this morning to a pile of emails and PMs about The Blacksmith's Apprentice, so I thought I would answer some of the questions here and clear up some confusion.
Welp. It went live way earlier than I expected. :D
Available now at Amazon and enrolled in Kindle Unlimited.

Every time I sit down to write, it's as if I have Tom, Jon, and Baltsaros standing over my shoulder, Tom clearing his throat impatiently... because they want another book. And lord do I want to give them that... and I'm looking forward to writing it. I'm also looking forward to introducing you to the new characters in their coming adventure. ;)
I still get so many lovely emails/messages about my pirates even now, six years after I first published Caged on a lark. I'm glad I did because it literally changed my life.
But the boys have to wait because I have The Blacksmith's Apprentice to finish. I was going to be done last month, but I decided not to push myself too hard too fast. I have a decision to make about the ending (there are two possible outcomes) and add a chapter I forgot to write. That's all that's left to do. Sounds easy, right?
*cracks knuckles* I can do this.
Oh! And before I forget - you can get a copy of Exposed (epub/mobi/pdf) for โจfreeโจ when you join the mailing list over at QueeRomance Ink. Here are the details. Enjoy!
โHey! Hey you! Wake up, you lazy, good for nothing dew-beater. I need to take a piss!โ the emperor roared from His massive four-poster bed.
Scrambling quickly to his feet, Kalsmish gasped out a reply. โY-yes, Your Magnificence. My apologies, I-I need to prepare.โ He chided himself for drinking that glass of small ale before bedโit wasnโt prudent to make Emperor Terssifus wait while he emptied his bladder.
โI donโt give a ratโs arse about your preparations, you cunt, get over here. Iโm near bursting.โ
Kalsmish gulped and scurried to the emperorโs bed, unbuttoning his trousers as he ran up the stairs. โIโm coming, Your Magnificence. Iโm sorry, Your Magnificence. I am ready to Receive.โ
Emperor Terssifus grunted and shifted His gargantuan bulk to the side, shaking the mattress like an earthquake, and strained to grab the funnel for the Imperial Exductor, His sausage fingers waggling a few inches short.
โLet me, Your Magnificence!โ Kalsmish handed the funnel to the emperor and quickly fed the tube from the other side of the device into his own penis as Terssifus began urinating into the funnel. Terrified that the funnel would fill before he was ready to Receive, Kalsmish began turning the crank even before the tube poked through the second sphincter into his bladder. He winced as it finally sank in the whole way. This was only his second week as the Imperial Waters Holderโit would be a while before his piss-hole was well-seasoned to the task. He watched with some trepidation as pale yellow urine from his own bladder crawled up the slightly transparent fish-skin tube, so he turned the crank faster. Finally, the suction took hold with a quiet popping noise and the urine reversed its course, chased by the emperorโs deep-yellow waters. Kalsmish glanced over at the emperorโthe Imperial Stream was still going strong and Kalsmish hoped his bladder wouldnโt fail him as his predecessorโs had.
Closing his eyes, Kalsmish said a silent prayer and tried to relax, willing bladder to expand as the Imperial Waters filled him. He gasped from the pressure building but kept cranking and cranking until finally the emperor tossed the funnel away, wrestling Himself back into the only sleeping position His huge mass would allow.
When the last of the emperorโs urine was pumped inside him, Kalsmish drew out the tube, squeezing his shaft hard at the base so he wouldnโt lose a drop of the Imperial Waters. He panted quietly, shivering as the need to urinate seemed to take over his every thought. This was the most heโd taken yet and on a full bladder tooโit seemed impossible to move. He knew there was only one way he would make it through the palace and down to the Imperial Receiving Well without pissing himselfโฆ and he didnโt like it one bit. Heโd managed to avoid it thus far by limiting his liquid intake, but heโd been stupid with that glass of ale. Hand trembling, he placed the tip of the glansplug into his piss-hole and began to screw it in slowly, grimacing as it grew wider the deeper it went, stretching him out. He paused when it felt like it was going to tear him and waited until his hole became accustomed to the width, the pain receding. Then, he closed his eyes and, with a whimper, turned it once more all the way around until the huge pink pearl decorating the glansplug sat flush to his cockhead. Kalsmishโs knees felt like gelatin and he broke out in a cold sweat. Leaving his trousers behind, he carefully locked his hands below the bulge in his lower belly and began the arduous journey to the well to dispose of his precious cargo.
Each step was agonizingโthe heavy pearl swung his penis back and forth like a pendulum as he walked, adding to his discomfort. Even breathing seemed to make the pressure in his bladder unbearableโฆ but he had to bear itโthere were at least a hundred other servants who would kill their own children for the honour of Receiving and Carrying the Imperial Waters for the emperor.
โLook at you,โ said a low, purring voice. โYou have quite the burden, I take it?โ
Oh no. โYes, your Grace. A glorious burden,โ he said. The emperorโs son Prince Makhiel slipped from the shadows like a predatory feline, a huge grin on his face. โI must make haste,โ Kalsmish said nervously.
โDo you, now?โ Makhiel said, his eyes narrowed with mischief as he matched Kalsmishโs slow, waddling pace.
Kalsmish forced himself to smile, a trickle of sweat running down his cheek. โWhen I have finished, I can come back and provide my usual serviceโฆ if the Prince so desires.โ
โOh, the prince desires all right,โ Makhiel replied, stepping in front of Kalsmish. โBut he desires his needs met now.โ
Normally, he actually enjoyed servicing the Imperial Prince, but all he could think of was getting to the well before he burstโhe gave an apologetic head bob and tried to dodge around the prince but Makhiel stopped him with a hand to his chest.
โI really do insist.โ
Though Makhiel was the kindest of the emperorโs nine sons, refusal of any sort was a death sentence and Kalsmish wasnโt certain heโd make an exception for him.
Sagging in defeat, Kalsmish could only nod.
โThereโs a good boy,โ Makhiel murmured, stroking Kalsmishโs cheek with one hand while the other cupped the quail-egg-sized pearl with the other, weighing it. โDelightful. You should be made to wear a bauble such as this in your cock at all times. Itโs pleasing to the eye and lovely to touch. Does it feel as good as it looks?โ
โYes, Your Grace,โ Kalsmish lied, trying not to wince when Makhiel began to toy with the glansplug, tugging it softly.
โAll right. Turn around,โ said the prince, twirling his finger in the air. โCome now.โ
Kalsmish did as he was told, eyes averted as a group of cup bearers passed them in the gallery. He heard Makhiel spit into his palm and braced himself, leaning forward. The prince hadnโt even entered him and he was panting from the increased pressure of the position. Tears rose in his eyes making the grey and white tiles shimmer in his vision.
The initial push wasnโt so terrible and for a moment he thought it would be fine, then Makhiel hilted himself and Kalsmish couldnโt hold back his wail. Heโd never felt so full.
Makhiel just chuckled and began thrusting, not caring that Kalsmish began blubbering and whimpering as the princeโs cock seemed to press his distended bladder harder with every plunge.
However, something began to break through his discomfortโKalsmish was legitimately worried his bladder would pop like a balloon, but he was starting to feel a razor-sharp pleasure from his desperate urge to piss, something truly unfathomable. His cock grew hard, the screw threads from the glansplug digging into the walls of his piss-hole, creating another level of pain-laced ecstasy.
โMmโฆ you seem to be enjoying yourself more than usual,โ Makhiel said softly in his ear. โYou naughty thing.โ He wrapped his long fingers around Kalsmishโs shaft and started stroking him. โDo you like this?โ
โY-yes, Your Grace,โ Kalsmish managed, his voice a strangled croak. He was hurtling towards completion and there was nothing he could do to stop it. He moaned, pushing back into the princeโs thrusts, oblivious to anything but his needโฆ until Makhiel stopped jerking him and began quickly unscrewing the glansplug.
โNoโฆ no,โ begged Kalsmish, bucking against the prince as his pleasure began to peak. โPlease, no, Iโm going toโโ Then he screamed as the plug popped free, his orgasm cresting like a tidal wave, sending piss and cum flying in a single far-flung stream, and screamed again when the second pulse hit, pleasure and pain as one, his body quaking and writhing out of his control. Kalsmish barely registered when the prince let out a deep grunt, signalling his own culminationโhis climax was monstrous, unending, all-consuming. At last he collapsed on his knees, his howl ending on a rattling sigh, and he buried his face in his hands, weeping.
โThat was superb,โ said the prince with a satisfied chuckle. When Kalsmish didnโt respond, Makhiel touched his shoulder gently. โKal?โ
Kalsmish looked up, his eyes streaming. โWhat have I done?โ His bladder ached like a knife had speared it, but that was nothing compared to the terror he felt.
โWhat do you mean?โ
Sobbing, Kalsmish gestured to the copious yellow streaks covering the tiles. โI-I have failed Him. Oh what am I to do?โ They would disembowel him slowly for this.
Squeezing his shoulder kindly, Makhiel tutted. โNever fear, my darling Kal. All will be well.โ
โHow? Itโs impossible!โ Kalsmish wailed, tearing at his hair in grief and horror.
โI wonโt tell anyone if you donโt,โ replied the prince, putting a finger to his lips and winking. โOh come on, lad. Stop it.โ He said when Kalsmish continued to bawl. Makhiel leaned down to pull Kalsmish to his feet and then delicately dabbed at his tears with the edge of his silken neck scarf. โHush, you poor soul. Hush now. Your prince is ordering you to stop.โ
Kalsmishโs breath wouldnโt stop hitching in his throat, but he did his best to stop the tears from flowing, wiping his face with both hands. โTruly? You wonโt tell of my dishonour?โ
โDishonour? Itโs just piss for godโs sake. Itโs an awfully silly tradition. Why do you have to act as my fatherโs chamber pot just because heโs unable to leave his bed?โ
Hiccupping, Kalsmish stared at his feet, relieved but still ashamed. โThank you, Your Grace,โ he whispered.
โThink nothing of it.โ Then Makhielโs voice got sly. โIโve only got one condition.โ
Kalsmish glanced up. โYes, Your Grace?โ
โYou come directly to me the next time my father overfills you. I quite enjoyed your enthusiasm and desperation todayโฆ it made for a delightful enhancement to our usual.โ
Blinking up at Makhiel, Kalsmish nodded. โYes, Your Grace. Iโll come to you.โ He gave the prince a shy smile. โAnd it certainly did.โ

We stared at each other for long enough that I found myself becoming uneasy, but I took a step towards him. It frustrated me that I could not read any intent in his eyes. Was he even truly glad I was returned? I took another small step that brought our noses nearly to touching. I felt my eyes would cross from the effort of holding his gaze.
โYou will do anything I command?โ I asked quietly.
โOf course, my lord.โ
The ten-year-old boy inside me was aghast at my challenging natureโhe wanted only to be taken up and comforted by the warrior who had loved him so simply and steadfastly. But the man I had become stood in the boyโs stead, trying vainly not to gulp in greedy breaths of Tadenโs scent. We stood so close I could feel the warmth of his body in the air between us, and he smelled of smoke and leather, a scent so familiar that it made my heart ache and my resolve weaken. I had intended to order him to do something humbling to prove his obeisance to meโto prostrate himself or kiss my unshod footโbut my heart begged a different path.
โI command you to tell me the truth, no matter what I ask,โ I said, allowing myself to turn away and break the steel grip of his gaze.
โOf course, my lord,โ he repeated.
I hated the sound of those words. That he should make himself into a meek drudge, bowing and scraping to me as he had my fatherโฆ I was embarrassed for him and I wanted an end to the charade, but the questions of the past needed to be answered as only a servant can answer his master. Or so it seemed to me. I turned to look at him again, to shrewdly judge the truth of his answer.
โDid you have any desire for me, last we saw each other? Tell me true, Taden.โ
Tadenโs eyes widened and his pale brow wrinkled at my question. I could see I had provoked shock, butโฆ had I witnessed a moment of hesitation before the expression took hold of his features?
โAnswer me.โ
โYou were a boy.โ
โI was. And a boy with his pert backside wiggling over your lapโฆ did that please you? My hands upon your face, my fingers on your lips, your mouth open to my touchโyou say I was a boy, but these liberties you allowed me, were they truly for the sake of innocent, childish play?โ
โYes!โ Taden replied immediately, his tone harsh and eyes like dagger points. Obviously, my words had disturbed him and I cannot say whether this brought me relief or disappointment. Perhaps both. I made my smile a little mocking and retreated from him another step, crossing my arms.
โYou did not do it for the sake of your own pleasure?โ
โNo! Of course not,โ Taden said. โI would neverโฆ my lord.โ The title was hastily tacked on when he evidently remembered who he was speaking with. โIt was only teasing play.โ He looked down at the curled toes of his high black boots. Though his hair was worn in the same style it always had been, straight and sheared off at his jaw, it was no longer the dark slate it had once beenโbright silver threaded through it now. In the dying sunlight it hung like shields of polished iron to either side of his face.
I lowered my voice, discarding the authority in it so he might speak plainly with me.
โDo I please you now?โ My heart began pounding the instant I said the words. Iโd pictured myself saying something similar, so many times, but the reality of the moment was even more frightening and exciting than Iโd imagined.
Taden glanced up. โMy lord?โ
โIf you dandled me on your lap nowโฆ would it be innocent still?โ My breath was coming out in short puffs and my face felt warm.
Expression wary, Taden stared at me in silence.
โCome, sit, and weโll see what happens.โ I tried to summon the charming grin that seemed always to draw the fish to my hook like magic, but it felt diminished as he continued to glare at me.
โI can make it an order,โ I warned, my impatience making me churlish. It was going all wrong, the moment fleeing from my control. For possibly the first time in my life, I had no idea how to take back the reins. I needed mending words, not this clumsy attempt to force him into the plot of my fantasies. โYou loved me as a little boyโฆ could you not let that love grow for the man I am today?โ
โYouโre a child still,โ he said, his eyes on mine.
It was a slap in the face. โI am not a child!โ I exclaimed, angered by the condescension I thought I could hear in his voice. โDo you know how many Iโve bedded? Does a child get his cocked sucked dry, morning and night?โ
โIโm well aware of what youโve been up to.โ While his subservience had finally vanished as Iโd wanted it to, I now wished it hadnโt. โYouโre a spoiled little boy, Wulfsere. Your aunt and uncle were far too lenient with you, letting you run around like a barkhorse in rut, embarrassing yourselfโโ
โEmbarrassing myself? Itโs you who should be embarrassed. A man past his prime, a broken-down old warrior reduced to a lowly servant. Have you no pride?โ
Tadenโs spine stiffened at my outburst and I saw his nostrils widen as he took a few deep breaths. I couldnโt help but remember how I used to place my finger on the tip of his nose to rest on that small divot. I felt like everything was broken and wrongโฆ and it was his fault. Or was it mine?
With gaze and voice softened, Taden said, โWulfie, my life is yours. I will gladly protect and serve you, as I did your father. Iโm proud to do so.โ
โThen keep your eyes down and donโt presume to speak to me so.โ
โYes, my lord.โ Taden stared down once more at his boots, hands clasped in front of him.
His calling me by my childhood nickname only stoked my indignationโฆ yetโฆ I turned my back to him, not wanting him to see the bitter tears that were threatening.
โLeave me. And donโt come back until Iโve summoned you.โ
There was a moment of silence before he replied, and I could feel his bewilderment. He had slept on the small cot in my fatherโs room for twenty years, if not more, and now I was banishing him.
โYes, my lord,โ he said quietly. I heard the door close and I fell forward onto the bed, covering my head with a pillow. I felt honestly ashamed of how Iโd acted and dreaded our next encounter. I wanted to run to him, beg him for forgiveness, but that would mean admitting that he was right about me. And he wasnโt.
โStupid, stupid, stupidโฆโ I muttered into the blankets. How am I to undo what I did? Maybe I shouldnโt try. Maybe itโs for the best. Why should I care? Gods, he looked fit and handsomeโฆ I thought. Just as Iโd remembered him, with his battle scars crisscrossing his alluringly unbearded face, his broad shoulders and long-fingered hands. I groaned and turned onto my back, staring at the painted ceiling. It was a scene from history. Something about an improbable harvest or maybe a droughtโI couldnโt remember the details. I probably hadnโt been paying attention in my lessons that day, though when had I ever? Sighing, I sat up and eyed the cot next to the great bed, with its unadorned grey blanket and small pillow, my thoughts returning to Taden. I knew I couldnโt very well avoid the man forever, he was my body servant after all.
I decided to let a few days slip by before calling him to my side again. No need to say anything about what had transpiredโperhaps heโd attribute my behaviour to travel weariness.
Satisfied with my decision, I stood and straightened my clothes, turning my mind to a more pressing matter. I opened the door to my chambers and peeked out into the hallway, hoping that Taden hadnโt defied me by staying close by. When I saw it was empty, I began wandering the corridors.
On my second circuit of the upper east wing, I found what I was looking for. Two tapermaids were starting to light the long line of candles in the darkening gloom. When they saw me, they stopped and bowed very low.
โNo need for that,โ I said in a gentle voice. โRise. Let me see you.โ
Nervously, the two young ladies straightened. One was a lowland girl with blond hair and pink cheeks, the other black-haired with skin even darker than my own.
โOh my. What a pair of beauties you are.โ
The tapermaids shared a glance, giggling timidly before dropping into brief curtsies.
โThank you, milord.โ
My gaze settled on the blonde first, then her raven-haired friend.
โNow, I have a little request: could one of you accompany me to my rooms? Your lord has aโฆ uhโฆ very large candle that he canโt handle on his ownโฆ it needs the attention of someone who has experience handling such things.โ I grinned. โWhich one of you would like to help me, hm?โ I reached out and gently pinched the blondeโs chin. โWill it be you, my dear?โ She blushed and giggled again, music to my ears. โOr, shall it be you, my darling?โ I said, taking the other young womanโs hand to bestow a kiss upon her dimpled knuckles. โOrโฆ perhaps the both of you would like to come with me?โ I raised an eyebrow. โWould you like to help your lord? Hm?โ
โYes, milord,โ they both said with an eagerness that excited me. What a perfect distraction they were.
โOh good,โ I replied. โCome with me, my belovedsโฆ let us go see to this problemโฆโ
โWhat about thar candles inny hallway, milord?โ the dark-haired woman asked timidly.
โThey can wait. I am your lord, and your lordโs needs cannot wait.โ
โYes, milord.โ

Wondering which retailer pays me the most?
#1 is Payhip. Not a retailer, but an online shop that I've set up myself. This is where I make the most return on my books.
Then after that it gets a little complicated, but these are the three best choices:
At Eden Books*, I make 70% royalties for all titles.
At Smashwords, I make 60% royalties for all titles.
At Amazon, for books OVER $2.99 (USD) I make 70% royalties and for books UNDER $2.99 I make 35%
So... if the book is under $2.99, buy from Eden Books or Smashwords.
If the books is over $2.99, buy from Eden Books or Amazon.
But best of all, buy from my Payhip store :)
