BLURB:

When portals from another world split open the sky, humanity braces for war… only to discover the monsters from Erethar aren’t here to conquer. They need something from humans. Something oddly specific in order to survive.

And I’ve spent the last few years working at my little shop and doing my part to help humanity by donating what the monsters crave.

But everything turns upside down the day I get a call from a friend saying an injured, banished Vyastil is looking for sanctuary.
He’s nothing like the others I’ve met. Cielo is a soft and tender monster whose punishment doesn’t fit his crime. And unfortunately, as much as I try to help by feeding him what his body needs, he doesn’t believe he’s worthy of taking it.

REVIEW:

From the first moment Dante felt a pull towards Cielo, the monster from Erethar.
Now he has him at his home. Cielo is badly injured after he’s banished from Erethar. Dante will take care of him. He knows a Vyastil needs cum, he secretly gives Cielo his own cum. Cielo doesn’t want it from the source because he’s convinced he doesn’t deserve it, and it’s forbidden for him.
The pull isn’t getting less since he’s so close by, it’s getting worse.

Slowly Cielo is healing and learning the human language, combined with ASL, which works perfectly for him.
Dante is quite protective of Cielo, and it’s vice versa.
Dante has a condition that involves flares of pain. When Cielo noticed this, he comforted Dante and took care of him.

Cielo is easily overwhelmed; Dante needs to temper his needs, especially his need for a deeper connection.
Do you remember how Everest took some herbs and got hot for Rathyn? Accidentally, he gave Dante these herbs for his pain. Oh my, the heat is on! 🥵
Their bond is getting stronger, they share something special!

Dante wants to give sweet Cielo the world, he loves him so much, Cielo deserves all the happiness. Dante wants to help him and make him happy.
He knows exactly how..
Dante’s condition is getting worse, and it’s the moment where Cielo takes over the reins.

“VySytheh.”

There are hundreds of details to enjoy. I will mention just a few: purrs, fluttering ears, smoldering eyes, two hearts beating. Gosh, the way it’s all described is just wonderful. The protectiveness and possessiveness were awesome to watch.

Everest and Rathyn are present, and Rathyn is still highly possessive over Everest, so much fun to watch them.
The story was fabulously put together. It was fabulously and widely written; there’s no rush, the authors really took time for everything, and the story has a nice setup for the next installment.
A more than wonderful story!
