The Lion Dances With a Loved One

Edition excerpt from The Lion Dances With a Loved One (2026): Betrayed and sold… Once a dancer of great renown, everything changed for Yol when he was branded a liar and sold to a brothel. Heartbroken, Yol abandoned his dreams and vowed never to dance for an audience again… That is, until the day a distinguished Hybrid — one who shifts between man and beast — known as Amulan arrives at the brothel and purchases Yol for himself, offering “freedom” in exchange for Yol’s services. Thrust into the lion’s den, Yol learns that beneath Amulan’s ferocity lies an unexpected tenderness — and an even more startling desire: that Yol return to the stage. - Content Warnings : Explicit sexual content, sex trade*, dubious consent, human-non-human relationship, mild fantasy racism
