Download or read book Rebellion written by Angela Fattig and published by Misfit Toy Publishing. This book was released on 2014-12-09 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the time of Adam and Eve there was an Angel named Lucifer. He had deceived God’s newest creation and was banished from Heaven to serve in Hell. Lucifer created many things himself, just as God had. The one that most terrifies man is the Incubi, a demon that comes down to prey on unsuspecting humans while they sleep. The Elders were put in charge of the Incubi world. The Elders have strict rules. Go to Earth. Impregnate a woman in order to rule all of Earth, as it was Lucifer’s plan to take control over all that God had created both Heaven and Earth. Many centuries ago, an Incubus was created. He did not believe in the old ways and fought against them. The Elders had rules for such times if an Incubi refused to do what they were created for. The Incubi would be banished to Earth to live like all Earth creatures lived, in their form, as Incubi were shape-shifters. There was one rule when banished, the Incubi was forced to live their life alone. They were not allowed to love, marry, or have a family, although for the incubus, he could still impregnate a woman, and the succubus could become pregnant, but if she shifted, that child would be lost. The day ‘Nate’ was created they say it was the beginning of the rebellion. After he was banished to Earth, many more followed, as they too did not believe in the old ways. There was just one thing the Incubi Elders failed to think of. The hand of God created Lucifer, the hand of Lucifer created demons. Therefore, the Incubi were the work of God. If given the chance, they would serve God.

Download or read book The Black Squares Club written by Joseph Cairo and published by eBookIt.com. This book was released on 2014-09-05 with total page 387 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Black Squares Club is a gripping psycho-sexual detective novel written for the mature reader. It is the second novel of the Sam Sonn series, built on the personna of a hi-tech sleuth who undertakes high profile cases. This time, a serial killer taunts both the police and his victims by mailing in crosswords that give clues to the time and place of his next murder. Sonn attempts to unmask the killer by applying his knowledge of crosswords, his background in computer science as well as his uncanny ability to decipher the criminal mind. In order to solve this case, however, he must sacrifice what he deems most precious--the only woman he ever truly loved. The author spins a chilling narrative that traps the readers psyche in unsuspecting twists, intellectual challenges, passionate sexual encounters and chilling violence. This is escapism in its purest form, transporting the reader to a place from which he may never return. Reader discretion is advised.

Download or read book Seduction written by Rachel O'Neill and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2018-07-04 with total page 241 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Within the so-called seduction community, the ability to meet and attract women is understood as a skill which heterosexual men can cultivate through practical training and personal development. Though it has been an object of media speculation – and frequent sensationalism – for over a decade, this cultural formation remains poorly understood. In the first book-length study of the industry, Rachel O’Neill takes us into the world of seduction seminars, training events, instructional guidebooks and video tutorials. Pushing past established understandings of ‘pickup artists’ as pathetic, pathological or perverse, she examines what makes seduction so compelling for those drawn to participate in this sphere. Seduction vividly portrays how the twin rationalities of neoliberalism and postfeminism are reorganising contemporary intimate life, as labour-intensive and profit-orientated modes of sociality consume other forms of being and relating. It is essential reading for students and scholars of gender, sexuality, sociology and cultural studies, as well as anyone who wants to understand the seduction industry’s overarching logics and internal workings.
