I may not know much about royal politics, but I did know what that lamp used to do. Jafar looked at me with such yearning in my eyes, I felt like my heart was beating a thousand miles a minute. No one had ever looked at me like that. He gently tucked a loose strand of hair behind my ear and said, “For you to look at me with something else than hatred in your eyes, Zariah.” “Why waste a wish on me?” I asked breathlessly. “Because as soon as you stop hating me, you might let me close enough to conquer your heart.” “Why conquer when you can seduce a willing partner? Is it not better to have earned a kiss than to have bought one?” I asked. “How would I earn a kiss from you?” Jafar asked as he let his finger trail over my cheek to my lips. With a delicate touch, I licked the bottom one, his finger quivering as he let out a groan. “Not sure yet,” I said, but as I said the words, I knew I was lying. I sat up, and his hands left my body. “Close your eyes and put your hands over your head.” --------- Reader advisory: This story contains explicit sex scenes between a wizard and a female human.

Excerpt: Two vines slithered closer through the air, cupping my shoulders in a comforting way. I sighed as they caressed me and massaged my aching muscles. I let myself enjoy the touch, and I could feel the tension leave my body. It eased away all the knots in my shoulders and slid lower to caress my lower back as well. More vines slithered towards me, caressing my calves, and pulling off my work boots. The feel of the soft petals against my naked skin made me gasp. The plant stopped its movement for a moment, as if seeing what I would say or do. When I didn’t object, they grew bolder, caressing more and more of me, until a soft moan came from my lips. The vines slithered underneath my dress, caressing my naked thighs and opening my legs. Arousal coursed through me, and I wondered what it would do to me. I allowed the Beanstalk to move my body, and I relished every second of it. I didn’t want to think, worry, or grieve anymore. I just wanted to feel and enjoy what this plant did to me. --------- Reader advisory: This story contains explicit sex scenes between a widow and a sentient Beanstalk.

Excerpt: “How can I ever repay you?” he asked, taking a step closer as I let my hand drop beside me. Hans towered over me, and I had to crane my neck to look at him. “There is no need.” He shook his head. “There is. My children are the most important thing in my life, and I could not imagine losing them. Please, anything.” “It has been some time since…” “Yes,” Hans said as he took another step towards me. “I’ve had a man…” “Yes,” Hans said, his body almost touching mine. His scent surrounded me, a heady mingle of the woods, and pure man, musky and delicious. “Kiss me,” I finished. I’ve never had a man kiss me, but he didn’t need to know that. His hand cupped my cheek, and he lifted my head higher as he bent his lower until our lips were almost touching. “Let’s remedy that,” Hans murmured before his lips met mine. The kiss was sweet, soft, and delicate as if he knew I was inexperienced. His lips touched mine slowly and gently. He moved his mouth over mine, discovering, teasing, and I responded in the same manner. For a first kiss, this was definitely better than I could ever imagine. --------- Reader advisory: This story contains explicit sex scenes between a Witch and a Hunter.
