Free Read: The Last Men On Earth

I’m super close to being done typing up all the stories from my 2015 Erotica Under Glass project, “She’s on the Bottom” — I only need to finish typing up one story, and fill in some blanks on another — and I’m preparing to announce the theme for my 2016 Erotica Under Glass project. Part of the ‘Under Glass’ deal, though, is that I give away some of the content for frree and I hadn’t chosen a “She’s on the Bottom” story for that…until now.

I sent an email out to my newsletter asking the subscribers which one of my stories they’d like to read for free (unfortunately, I did something wrong and only part of the mailing list got the email–sorry!). There was a tie, but I cast the deciding ballot and I’m happy to tell you I will be making ‘The Last Men on Earth‘ available as a free read.

The Last Men on Earth is quite long–nearly 10,000 words–so I don’t want to just put it in a blog post, that would be a nightmare to read. So I’ll be getting it edited this week and then formatted as an e-book right after. It should be available for download within three weeks. In the meantime, here’s a couple thousand (unedited) words to whet your appetite 🙂

And thank you for your continued support of Erotica Under Glass. I can’t wait to tell you what the next theme is… I mean I can wait, and I will wait (until next week) but I’m really looking forward to it! 🙂

Word Count: 9,650
Kink Level: D/s featuring M/f and M/m action and spanking but no actual intercourse.
Under Glass Theme: She’s on the bottom

ETA: Holy crap, I can see typos and required edits already. For example the dog’s names are Cain and Abel. I mean, they are both quite ‘able’ but that’s not their name… >_<

The Last Men on Earth

by Cori Vidae

Her arms and thighs were heavy from exertion and the wind tore at her clothes and poked numbing fingers through their many layers. It made her eyes water and she blinked furiously to keep tears from forming and freezing to her face. Even so, her eyelashes stuck together each time they met, pulling away reluctantly like over-stretched chewing gum. A small copse of evergreens offered some shelter to the West but reaching them would take her from the most direct route to Jacksons’ ranch and already wading through the knee-high snow was taking its toll on her. She wouldn’t have made it this far as it was without her dogs, Cain and Able.

She peered at them over the sled through the breath-clouded air. They were getting tired too–of course they were–the snow was up to their shoulders in some spots. Though she could hear their laboured panting clearing over the swoosh, swoosh sound of the sled cutting through the snow, they never slowed, never stopped pulling. Pit Bulls were known for their tenaciousness but she didn’t think that was what drove them. Like her, she suspected they were motivated by the precious cargo bundled up and sleeping on the sled between them.

“Good boys,” she called, putting her shoulder into pushing the sled and continuing her weary trudge behind it. “Good boy. We’re almost there.”

Good lord, had Jacksons’ always been so far away? It had seemed a whole lot closer before.

“Not even if you were the last men on Earth!”

Available for Sponsorship — Moonlight and Magic

I’m excited to announce that another Erotica Under Glass story is available for sponsorship. This one could be subtitled, “Femdom Fairy Fun”!

Moonlight and Magic

Gods he was pathetic. If he’d had a tail he’d be wagging the thing. “Stop,” she said, holding up a hand. She didn’t need to use any magic to compel his obedience but he froze in place as surely as if she had. “Crawl to me.”

Word Count: 6,700
Kink Level: D/s featuring F/m, pegging and ponyplay
Prompter: TJ & Cary
Under Glass Theme: She’s on the bottom

Excerpt:

Though her magic was innate and didn’t require anything more than thought, she snapped her fingers—all the better to put on a show for the little pony-man— and suddenly he was decked out in all manner of leather straps. They criss-crossed over his chest and down to his waist where they elongated but continued to his thighs. The straps were connected together with shiny O-rings, buckles and clips so that even his slightest movement made him jingle like a full team of horses. She played with the straps, tightening and adjusting even though they needed neither. “Oh, what a handsome horse you are.”

He preened beneath the compliment, tossing his head,  making the tack ring and jingle, and increasing the width of her smile.

“Just missing a couple things…” She could turn his head into that of a beast the same as the trickster, but she liked this—the look in his very human eyes as he stood in the harness. The combination of man and animal sent delicious licks of pleasure up from her belly to her chest so instead of transforming him, she conjured a hood. Black as the night, just like the leather harnesses, it would give the human an equine profile—the long face, the muzzle, the flicking ears but let her continue to see his human eyes, as pale a blue as hers were dark.

“Here,” she said, holding it out. The weaver ducked his head, accepting it without question and it molded to his face, transforming him.

“And hooves,” she said, summoning up a set of boots which resembled the large, fringed feet of a Clydesdale. These she tied tightly to his wrists and ankles. Reinforced in the shape of a horse’s hooves they would summon up a beautiful clip-clop sound should she walk her pony-man over an appropriate surface.

 “One last thing,” she said, sliding the backs of her nails down his spine and over the curve of his ass. “Horses have tails.”

Beneath the mask the man’s eyes grew wide and afraid and she heard what sounded like the beginning of a protest quickly swallowed back into silence. “Now,” she said, slowly tracing random shapes on the small of his back and the cheeks of his ass with her fingertips. “I could give you a permanent tail—that is within my power—but I don’t think you’d want a tail all the time would you?”

He shook his head vehemently.

“No, no I didn’t think so. Just when you’re with me, right? Just when you’re with me…”

With a flick of her wrist the tail appeared in the palm of her hand. She moved to where he could see her, could see it. It was a glorious thing.

“Kiss me,” Mary said, her voice barely a whisper.

“Wha—what?” Cairn frowned. He looked at her like she was crazy. A demon. A demon was looking at her like she was crazy. And maybe she was. But still— “Kiss me.”

She stepped inside the circle, tilting her head to meet his gaze and said it a third time, louder, her breath stirring his hair. “Kiss me.”

With a growl, he pulled her against him. His lips crushed hers. The force of his kiss bent her backward like a bow, but he supported her weight. His heat branded her frozen body, marking her where they touched, setting her nerves alight in the most delicious ways.

His fingers tangled in her hair, his chest hard against hers, thigh to thigh. She felt him grow hard, his manhood pressing against her, throbbing between them. She wrapped her fingers, still stiff and clumsy from the cold, around it through his robe, and moaned at the sensations his intake of breath stirred in her. If she were a cat, she would purr.

He deepened their kiss and she felt his fangs press through their lips, reminding her he wasn’t just a man, and the thrill of danger that coursed through her made her ache with want.

Cairn growled again and pulled back on her hair, arching her neck. He trailed sucking, nibbling kisses down her throat to her collarbone, wiping conscious thought from her mind and coaxing a moan from her lips.

Rough Edges — Cover Reveal

Rough Edges Cover

There she is. The cover for Rough Edges.

I’d be proud of this anthology no matter what, but because the circumstances around its creation were…let’s say ‘turbulent’ I’m especially pleased with it.

Coming this summer from Pen and Kink Publications (that’s me, folks!), Rough Edges contains work by:

  • Brantwijn Serrah
  • Jen DeLuca
  • TJ Dodd
  • Anna Kyle
  • Christine Morgan
  • Pumpkin Spice
  • Trayce Primm

Nothing is sexier than someone who knows what they want and has the confidence go after it. This anthology is crammed full of hot romances featuring those kinds of rough-around-the-edges alpha personalities–stories about the kind of men and women who ride horses during the day and their partners at night, who speak few words but mean every one of them, and who would never break their own personal code of honor.

Oh! And you can totally win an advanced copy and be among the first to read it! We’re giving away three copies via Goodreads giveaway:
