Alien Masters Author:Ann Jacobs Perfect Master Crown Prince Arik needs a consort to breed his sons but is afraid no woman will have him voluntarily once she sees his scars. He will meet his bride for the first time at their public mating, with Arik covered from head to toe in black leather-except for the bare essentials. Emerald is alarmed yet highly aroused as the palace eun... more »uchs fondle and stimulate her in preparation for Arik's mating. But afterward, he pulls from her body, escorts her to his tower and leaves her alone. Emerald once saw her prince from a distance and admired his beautiful form. Confused by Arik's behavior, she insists she has the right to see her mate and he reluctantly accedes to her demand. Arik is afraid for the first time in his life and filled with regret that he refused the help of the cyborg maker. Their future rests on this fateful revelation. Her Alien Masters Garnet wants great wealth-and finds it in her new Master, the golden alien Romulus. But she soon learns Romulus also has a male slave, Antonio, his life companion. When they were young, Antonio was modified to be a near-perfect duplicate of his Master. Their bond is strong and Romulus expects Garnet to welcome Antonio into their bed. Though sex with the two men is wonderful, Garnet wants her mate all to herself. Romulus has two jealous lovers on his hands. Wishing to make Garnet happy, he gifts Antonio with his own eunuch as a compromise...but Romulus misses him deeply. As Garnet's love for Romulus grows, so does her need to make him happy as well. Her solution? All four of them-living together, sleeping together, loving together. Always. Training the Master Pearl wants constant sexual pleasure, so she's mated with Pak Lin, master maker of sexbots that are almost indistinguishable from humans. But she soon learns she wants more-some emotion, some human caring-from her mate, who seems about as cold as the sexbots who served as his groomsmen. Lin seems incapable of any emotion. Pearl knows she has little hope of ever meaning more to Lin than a convenient receptacle for his lust. She must lure him, seduce him-make him burn with desire for her alone. She must teach him how to love.« less
