✨ Stroke

Before he was worshipped, he was witnessed.

Nico Reyes didn’t start out a god.
He started out naked. In an art class. Being watched.

This is his story, before the novel His Theirs Enough, before the Quadruple, before Elias, Alaric, and Lina ever touched his life in the ways they would.


Read His Theirs Enough my lyrical, erotic debut novel that explores bisexuality, polyamory and submission.
