Dhampyre: Blood Beginnings (Erotic High Fantasy)

In the peaceful town of Ironwood, a mysterious, darkly dressed woman answers the call for aid to watch over a farm after fears of a flying nightmare begin to circulate. Before long, this solemn traveller will be left with more questions than answers and a hunger that only one thing can satisfy. Seeking those answers will draw her deep into Ironwood Forest, entangling her at the mercy of monsters and plots she cannot even begin to understand.

The lives of common folk and the common monsters that live in peace together will change in her wake, but hers is a story in its blood beginnings. Hers is the path of a vampire's half-bred child; the Dhampyre.

The link section looks sparse in this case because this is infact an Amazon exclusive! That means readers with Amazon Prime can 'borrow' the book for free, and I have a number of tools to play around with.

Such as making it FREE as a short promotional event from the 20th to 21st!

This title is going to be one of my more interesting little projects, and the use of Amazon's Select feature is one instance of exactly how. In more interesting terms, contrary to the usual method of releasing serial volumes and gauging interest through time, Dhampyre will be a routine release of novella format length books with accompanying paperback on release, covering a full arc with several erotic scenes to drive the journey along.

What this does is give me the best of all worlds, giving me a place to write up the initial shorter chapter pieces one by one on a more-or-less weekly basis, get thoughts and feedback on the progression of those, then come back later and edit them all a second time to put into a chaptered novel book format where I can make full use of chapter breaks to shift the time, scene, character focus and even theme in a way that standard serial releases don't really allow.

So I'm really excited about this, but what's it all about? Fans of my other high fantasy titles - Daemonique, Deity of the Desert and Huntsman imparticular - will get some similar vibes from some of the content, and that's because it's set in the same world. There's strong connection to the Northlands and the history of the world that is only being teased out in whispers, so far, as well as using the same religious setting as in Daemonique. The town of Ironwood is far inland from Kinsport, where Daemonique's setting has moved to, and far south of the region's capital, but it is held under the same faith. 

This volume really sets up and gets you comfortable with the world and its inhabitants. There are a lot of monstrous types here, a lot of twisted creatures, spirits of nature and some more traditional types like the Vampire and the main travelling protagonist - the Dhampir, child of a Vampire and Human. Many of these monsters will be involved in wholly erotic encounters. 

Fans of my similar work and Monster Girls at large will find scenes including vampiric biting, Holstaurus cow girls, Alraune plant girl and Dryad wood spirit, a Manticore and more. These rich, varied monster types are a real driving force behind the setting,so their involvement and interactions with the girl who balances between worlds of monster and human will only get more intense from here on.

Size, Scale & Coming Soon

For those familiar with my Deity of the Desert series, this is a pretty good idea of the scale I had in mind for the giantess in the third chapter. It's relevant because I'm in the closing stages of having that series re-edited and formatted into its novel format. It's also a really nice picture, and obviously, rather than legs, the lamia in my story's lower half would be considerably longer, but the upward, humanoid scale is about this. Maybe a little bigger, but I like this scale of Giantess, compared to ones that make you cringe over what would amount to standing on lego when they're shadowing a city.

Her Wicked Webs (Monster Girl Femdom)

There's a monster in the attic, a thing of myth. Eight legs, six eyes, a taste for classical music and long nights of passion. Declan Cooper has already been introduced to the refined lady, and taken her potentially deadly kiss during an estranged party. He wakes now in a bed of the finest silk webs, the terrifyingly beautiful lady with the lower body of a black widow spider – Latrodia Variolus – tending for his recovery with motherly care.

She'll see him back in health, but not back on his feet. The night has only begun.

This is the first in a series of extra branch stories leading off from A Carnival of Phantasms (one post down). They won't all be coming right now - maybe one or two more will, I have so much I can do - but the purpose is they stray off the beat of the main story and head into some of those kinky rooms for things too extreme or specialized for the main story. A Carnival of Phantasms has received five star review reception to its mansion of kinks and dark fetish play, so check it out then follow up with the purely erotically charged side stories like this.

Now with that said, this side story was created as a point of contention I go on about constantly. I made a point of including the icon at the bottom of the cover, and being very clear in content warning, but this is a spidery monster girl story. For those that haven't run away screaming, that's why it wasn't part of the main story. It practically could have been, but then I wouldn't have made it all of 9k's worth of near pure erotic acts. Without that fear of upsetting people, it's really picked up some speed.

The adjacent image is pretty much what (if not who) you're in to meet with this story, and to be fair, the majority of my focus is on her upper body, so it isn't all that off-putting, beyond the motions, reminders and use of spider web bondage. The focus is upper body to point of starting with an erotic lactation scene that leads into titfucking, and then hours of sex.

Latrodia Variolus (the name of my spider lady) has a very motherly and mature air to her which works well with lactating and her dominance over Declan. She doesn't get men to play with often, so she's going to make sure he enjoys it, and takes her time enjoying him in turn.
