Along the way, they encounter a fiery giant, a deer with a silver horn, angry gods, and some lively nymphs. To add to their troubles, Jeremy has no idea how to get home!

"I was going to ruin him, and he was going to thank me for it." (Chapter 1: The Thirst Trap) "I let the towel drop to the floor. It landed with a soft, muffled sound. He froze mid-motion, his eyes widening in shock and raw, unadulterated lust... I was completely exposed, completely vulnerable, and I had never felt more powerful." (Chapter 5: Atlantic City) "I had broken him down to his component parts—his loyalty, his guilt, his desire—and I rebuilt him into a creature perfectly designed for my pleasure." (Epilogue: The New Arrangement) *** The Lessons He Learned After Hours Robert Miller believed he was a good man, a man who lived by the rules. He was a devoted husband, a respected senior analyst, a predictable creature of habit. But beneath the crisp collar of his button-down shirt, a quiet desperation simmered—a hunger he couldn't name, born from a honeymoon that was more frustration than fantasy. He didn't know he was starving until he met his new teacher. And she wasn't on the company's payroll. Jasmine Chen, the junior analyst with eyes that saw too much, understood the unspoken language of desire. From her desk across the aisle, she watched the cracks form in his perfect facade and knew she held the curriculum that could shatter it completely. His real education began after hours, in the cathedral-like silence of the empty office. The first lesson wasn't about data or deadlines; it was about the intoxicating scent of a woman's perfume lingering in the air long after she's walked away. It was about the subtle electricity of fingers brushing against his during a file transfer, and the way the whisper of a zipper in a quiet room could be louder than a scream. He learned that a woman's mouth could teach him more about focus than any corporate seminar, and that surrender could feel terrifyingly like relief. The classroom soon expanded beyond the sterile walls of Sterling & Finch, moving to the anonymous intimacy of hotel suites and the whiskey-soaked darkness of her Manhattan apartment. The syllabus grew to include the weight of a lie on a phone call home, the art of composing a text message that was both a promise and a threat, and the exquisite algebra of risk and reward. He discovered that the taste of forbidden fruit was secondary to the thrill of stealing it, and that the most potent aphrodisiac wasn't her body, but her complete and utter control over his. Under her tutelage, he transformed. The reluctant student, haunted by guilt, slowly became an eager participant, craving the next assignment. He learned that power wasn't in resistance, but in the sweet, terrifying release of giving in. He mastered the subtle art of the double life, becoming fluent in a language spoken only in shared glances over a conference table and the silent pressure of a knee under the tablecloth. He was her star pupil, and his final exam was to become a man his own wife would no longer recognize. For every rule of his marriage he broke, he mastered a new one of hers. His life became a masterclass in deception, his soul the final project. But in a curriculum built on desire and destruction, the final lesson is always the most dangerous. Because what happens when the student has learned everything his teacher has to offer? What happens when he's finally ready to graduate?

She will have the man, but I have his monster. And in a strange, twisted way, I know I have the better part of him. (Ch: The Acceptance) Nicole Sterling had built a fortress around her heart, calling it discipline when it was truly fear. From the 47th floor of a Manhattan skyscraper, she was a queen in her corporate kingdom—a sharp, untouchable single mother who had traded passion for the clean, predictable lines of success. She believed she was complete, that her life, with her daughter and her career, needed nothing more. She had convinced herself that the faint, lonely ache deep inside her was just the phantom pain of a life she no longer wanted. Then came Kevin. Younger, brilliant, and engaged to be married, he was supposed to be safe territory. He was her subordinate, a rising star on her team whose talent she respected and whose personal life she professionally ignored. But he saw something others didn't. He saw the cracks in the fortress walls, the woman beneath the armor. And in the heady, intoxicating glow of a career-defining victory, he didn't see a barrier; he saw an invitation. It was supposed to be one night of celebration. But as the crowd thinned and the expensive whiskey worked its magic, the air between them grew thick with unspoken words. The corporate armor melted away, leaving only the raw, undeniable pull of a man and a woman. It was a conversation spoken in stolen glances across a fire pit, a silent, mutual agreement that the carefully drawn lines of their world were about to be irrevocably blurred. They both knew the rules, and they both knew they were about to break every single one of them. What began in that haze soon bled into the daylight, becoming a dangerous game played in stolen moments in empty stairwells and the charged silence of the elevator. To the world, she was his boss, the woman in control. In the shadows, he was her undoing, the one who could unravel her with a single, knowing look. Their affair became an addiction, a secret language of shared risk where the taste of his mouth was more potent than any success, and the scent of her perfume on his collar was a promise of the ruin to come. That night was supposed to be an exception, a singular lapse in judgment. But when there are no barriers, you don’t just let someone in; you let them see everything. They didn't just break the rules—they broke each other open, discovering a raw, desperate hunger that threatened to consume their careers, his engagement, and her carefully constructed life. Because once you know what it feels like to be truly seen by someone, putting the walls back up is no longer an option.

Will Poppy has always been fascinated with writing - he thinks there’s something almost... magical about it. But when his mother passes away, Will finds himself stuck living with his awful aunt, unable to write a single word (despite the fact that two Muses will not leave him alone), and handed a mysterious package which includes an old picture of his grandparents and a piece of cloth with the words "The Griffin of Darkwood" on it. When his aunt decides to move both of them to a small village, Will is excited for a new adventure, and in a castle no less! But after a rude welcome to the town that includes stories about a curse, and an introduction to the servants of the castle who evidently mean to cause him harm, Will’s sense of dread about the whole village rises. What is the curse the villagers all claim has been on the castle for hundreds of years, and what does it have to do with the disappearance of a young girl forty years ago? More importantly, what’s The Griffin of Darkwood, and what does it have to do with Will and his family?

“The man standing before me was no longer an awkward, nerdy college kid. He was a hunter.” (The Unmasking) “The line between coercion and consent had blurred into a haze of pure sensation. I hated him for it. I hated myself for wanting it.” (The First Taste) *** The summer air was thick enough to drink, hanging heavy and wet over the cracked pavement of Jersey City. It was the perfect weather for disappearing. That’s all she wanted—to shed the skin of “Amy,” the goddess from onlyfans web, and become “Anna,” an anonymous girl in a grimy walk-up apartment. She traded silk sheets for cheap, scratchy cotton and the roar of adoration for the hum of a dying refrigerator. But she didn't find the quiet sanctuary she was looking for. Instead, she found a pressure cooker, a small, shared space with three men whose own simmering frustrations were about to boil over. She thought she was running from the heat, but she had just walked straight into the furnace. They see her, but they don’t all see the same woman. One of them watches her with the quiet, obsessive focus of a hunter who has spotted a rare, beautiful creature far from its natural habitat; he sees a puzzle he is desperate to solve. Another sees a solution to all his problems, a beautiful key wrapped in female flesh, a shortcut to a life he craves just across the river. And the third, the quietest of them all, doesn’t just see a woman. He sees a deity who has fallen from the heaven of his computer screen into his living room, and he wants to worship at her altar. They don’t know her, not yet, but each of them has already decided what piece of her they want to own. Secrets, however, have a way of sweating out in the heat. A shared glance in the hallway becomes a stare that lingers too long. A quiet observation from an armchair becomes a hunt that takes place in the dead of night, fueled by caffeine and curiosity. He starts to notice the little things—the specific curve of her lip when she thinks no one is looking, a tiny mole on her shoulder that triggers a memory, a look in her eye that he knows he’s paid to see before. The apartment begins to shrink, the thin walls pressing in, and she gets the terrifying feeling that she is constantly being watched, that her secret life is about to be dragged, kicking and screaming, into the light. When the truth finally comes out, it doesn’t bring freedom. It brings a proposition, whispered in the dim, intimate light of the living room. A welcome party, they call it. A private showing for her most dedicated fans. A chance for them to show their… appreciation. It’s a suggestion that hangs in the air, thick with lust and the promise of broken boundaries. In a home with no real locks and no rules left to follow, she learns that her body is no longer a sanctuary, but a negotiation. And her only choice is to decide what kind of show she’s willing to put on to survive. This isn’t a story about a girl hiding from her past. It’s about what happens when her past traps her in a small, hot apartment with three men who know exactly who she is, and want every piece of her. It’s about a game of power where the prize is her body and the currency is their desire. After all, in the hottest summer of her secret life, the only way to survive the fire is to become it.
