Steam: Steam Level 5

He’s royal. She’s wild. Who’s the beast?

When Lalia is claimed by a warrior prince and brought to his estate, she yearns to become civilized. Her stern new master has other ideas.

Ared the Royal finds the nymph climbing a tree while on his way to fulfill a dark mission. A tyrant altered her using dark scientific magic. The evil ruler made her wanton for his own purposes, ruining her for polite society and utterly destroying her chances at a normal lady’s life.

Coldly enraged to learn what she has suffered, Ared does not hesitate to administer a ruthless justice upon the perpetrator. Arrogantly accustomed to women falling over themselves to please him, he certainly does not hesitate to reap the rewards of the rescued nymph’s gratitude. But he finds that he cannot so easily let her go.

Lalia never expected that a life of aroused torment could result in such sinful pleasure. She has always only been made to want, without ever knowing satisfaction. But Ared the Royal not only rescued her from her imprisonment, he taught her ecstasy.

Since Lalia deems herself in no fit shape to enter society on her own, and she now knows what sensual delights he can bring, she agrees to the deal he proposes.

Though without education, and at the mercy of her own uncontrollable needs, Lalia knows what she wants above all things: to become a civilized lady and be accepted in fine society.

But what she learns at the hands of her new master is to beware of making deals with angels…

This is the full boxed set that includes all six novellas that make up the complete red-hot fantasy series Royally Bared and Acquired:

Gifted to the Prince
Lalia Trained
Lalia Rewarded
Festival of Debauchery
Lalia Disobedient
Lalia’s Escape

The fantasy/sf elements are mild and play only a minor role in this lusty tale.

The story portrays cruel mind games, orgasm denial, edging, space-age futuristic kink, spanking, and public sex. There is a dominant, controlling “alphahole” hero. Psst – he does get redeemed eventually, and there is a happy light at the end of the tunnel. Lalia’s road to self-determination, however, is a long and scorching one, and occasionally looks very bleak.

Look for Lalia’s Epilogue, available now.
