Smutty novella about Marrick (Master/Dom) and Boy (a pet/slave).This is set in an alternate universe where vampires are a dominating race and humans are pets to the vampires, besides being a slave (clean, keep the house tidy, obey your master, sex toy) pets are needed to feed vampires.In this story Marrick recently aqcuired Boy (that's his name), he finds that Boy is kind of special and Hunters are looking for him, so they are on the run and developing their "relationship"/sex life at the same time.BDSM content: No whips or chains are used, besides of some spanking during sex and the wide use of the words Master and Boy/pet during the book, this is pretty vainilla. In a rather bleak vision of the future, with vampires basically having taken over the world and humans serving as blood slaves, the story of Marrik and his new pet, Boy, offers an odd ray of light and hope that some form of love may have survived. Against the background of a 'Dom War', these two find each other and discover there is much more to their relationship than either one of them expected. The resulting adjustment is huge, and so is the interference from outside forces. Luckily, Marrik is as determined as he is dominant and will not accept anyone touching Boy.Boy is hunted for his sweet tasting blood, and is in desperate need of protection. When his old master is killed by Hunters, he flees and manages to survive until he finds Marrik, the man his ownership papers say he was 'transferred' to. As submissive as Boy has been trained to be, he has a core of strength and a will to survive that enable him to keep up not only with his new Master, but help him fight their enemies. Marrik has never really thought about a permanent pet. His life consists of the occasional encounter until Boy presents himself. There is an underlying need to protect Boy which Marrik cannot explain. The gradual reveal of what is really going on, both between him and Boy and in terms of Marrik's enemies, is the main part of this story. Well, that and the hot sexual encounters the two of them have.If you like vampires, if you enjoy a futuristic setting that is somewhat bleak, and if a Master/slave relationship evolving into a different form of two men sharing their lives sounds interesting, you may like this book.
