The King in Red
Ava Hall
A bookish student at Miskatonic University unearths a forgotten play — and the ancient, hungry eldritch god inside it.
Description
All my life, I followed the rules. I had perfect grades, a perfect schedule, the perfect degree… I lived my life safe and sound amidst the pages I studied. Because no one ever died from reading a book, right? At least that’s what I thought… Until I found a long forgotten play in a dusty corner of Miskatonic University’s library. Something that calls to me from under its veneer of dust and decaying pages, something eldritch, something ancient, something hungry… Something that can’t be satiated by just my mind or my soul, but my body, too. Any reader worth their salt knows about Lovecraft and the old gods… But I think I might have discovered something new. And he’s all mine. The King in Red is a monster romance featuring erotic scenes, forced captivity, and tentacles.
