It will be 40,000-50,000 words (150-200 pages), between a novel and a novella.

As subscribers, you will receive three exclusive, standalone excerpts before publication, following Valerie’s slow, unsettling repurposing in the first part of her story.

This excerpt is ~1,850 words (10 pages), offering a 6 to 11-minute read depending on your preferred pacing. For context, these are currently draft Chapters 4 and 5, set towards the beginning of Valerie’s subtle, chemical brainwashing. Take it as the carefully orchestrated first steps of her slow, insiduous transformation.

There are no clocks at Olympus. No schedules, no numbers.

Valerie does not know how long she has been here.

Five days? Ten? Twenty? Maybe more…

She only knows that when Megan and Emily enter her suite that morning, it is with purpose, yet without urgency.

‘We’re going to take your things now,’ Megan says, gathering the folded blouses, pencil skirts, heels—everything that had once defined her in Geneva.

Sitting naked against the padded headboard, Valerie watches as the last remnants of her old life are lifted away, her delicate hands resting lightly against her thighs, fingers twitching slightly as if they should reach, should stop this.

But she does not stop them.

‘It’s part of your journey. Of the decluttering of your mind,’ Emily explains, placing a soft, folded bathrobe in Valerie’s lap. ‘You can always have them back later, if you ever wish.’

If she ever wishes.

The phrase sits strangely in Valerie’s mind.

***

Landon Bisset steps inside, and suddenly, everything else fades—the morning light, the softness of her bed, the warmth of her hot chocolate still lingering on her tongue.

The feeling is overwhelming, unexpected in its intensity. She feels it in her chest, in her stomach, in the delicate shiver along her spine.

He is the reason that she is here.

He is the reason she feels light, cherished, whole.

And in that moment, she wants—she needs—him to know how much she appreciates him.

More than that. She wants him to be as blissfully happy as he has made her. Happier even, if at all possible.

‘Valerie,’ he chimes, his voice smooth, deep, warm.

She gets up instinctively, wearing nothing but a smile, suddenly aware of how small she feels in his presence, how soft and delicate she must look.

‘Sir,’ she says, dipping her chin.

His lips curve slightly in approval as he studies her, his gaze lingering on her breast, then sliding down her waist, her private parts, her legs.

‘You’re looking well,’ he says. ‘Better than before.’

A flush of something warm spreads through her, something close to pride.

]]><![CDATA[Charlotte's Reconditioning Journey]]>https://list.bellerophonpress.com/p/compliance-training-excerpt-1https://list.bellerophonpress.com/p/compliance-training-excerpt-1Sun, 21 Jun 2026 06:43:22 GMTI have been quiet in recent months. My focus has been entirely consumed by drafting the two stories you have been upvoting the most: ‘Compliance Training’ and ‘Happy Little Helper’.

They are both long-form—‘Compliance Training’ is an extensive novel!—and so crafting realistic, visceral psychological manipulation takes time and dedication.

In the meantime, I am sharing with you an exclusive excerpt detailing Charlotte’s twisted emotional reconditioning into absolute sexual compliance.

The excerpt is ~2,500 words (13 pages), offering an 8 to 15-minute read depending on your preferred pacing. For context, these are currently draft Chapters 11 and 12, set towards the end of Charlotte’s first traumatic week. Take it as a ‘gentle’ foreboding to the following weeks of her ineluctable, total psychological collapse.

The hotel room door closes behind them with a soft, final click. The air still carries the heat of the cinema.

For most of the week, she had tried, in small ways, to regain control—to seduce, to manipulate, to turn his dominance into something she could wield. But now… now it is different.

Now, it is her own body betraying her.

She stands straight, hands resting lightly behind the small of her back, her chin just slightly lifted, waiting for the words she knows are coming.

‘Get undressed.’

She had known.

She does not hesitate.

Her movements are neither exaggerated nor rushed—just precise, fluid, inevitable. There is no resistance in her, no tension. Each action feels preordained, as though the week has been leading her to this moment from the very start.

Her shoes slip off first.

]]><![CDATA[A Golden Girl’s Descent into the Forbidden]]>https://list.bellerophonpress.com/p/a-golden-girls-descent-into-the-forbiddenhttps://list.bellerophonpress.com/p/a-golden-girls-descent-into-the-forbiddenSun, 14 Dec 2025 06:19:58 GMTIt’s been a month since I released The Sweetheart, my debut into the world of erotic dark fiction, and the quiet thrill of putting it out there still lingers. Not the kind of book that shouts from rooftops, but one that whispers secrets in the dark, pulling you into a world where the glossy surface of mid-century Americana cracks open to reveal something far more primal.

Picture this: Springfield, 1957. Mary Jane Thompson is everything a girl should be. Golden curls, blue eyes that could melt a quarterback’s resolve, a figure that turns hallways into runways. She’s the head cheerleader, the homecoming queen, the girl who’s been dating Johnny Parker—the football captain destined for med school—since her eighteenth birthday. Her life is scripted: pearl necklaces, polite smiles, a future as the perfect doctor’s wife. Her father, a stern veteran, has drilled it into her: Discipline. Order. Reputation.

Then comes the invitation. Cream envelope, embossed seal, no signature. A ‘gathering of select young women’ at the mayor’s estate,a society for refinement, for those who will ‘shape the future of Springfield.’ It sounds like a privilege, a nod to her untouchable status. Her parents beam; it’s a fine connection.

But when Mary Jane steps into that echoing mansion, powdered-blue dress hugging her curves, she’s alone. The maid’s face is a blank slate. The house hums with silence, too private, too watchful. And waiting in the parlor? Not her girlfriends, but a circle of elegant older women, their smiles warm as chamomile tea, but edged with something sharper.

What unfolds isn’t tea and etiquette lessons. It’s a ritual of confessions, where the air thickens with floral steam and unspoken hungers. Mary Jane, ever the good girl, shares her deepest shame: those stolen nights under pink covers, fingers tracing forbidden paths, chasing a warmth she knows must be sin. The women listen, nod, and then... they guide her pen. ‘For the records,’ they say. ‘To keep us accountable.’

From there, the story spirals into uncharted territory: dominance veiled as decorum, submission dressed as salvation, the slow burn of humiliation that feels like liberation. Just the intoxicating fiction of a sweetheart learning her true purpose.

I wrote this because erotica deserves more than clichés, stories that linger like lipstick on a collar, blending the nostalgia of Mad Men with the raw pulse of Story of O. If you’re drawn to the tension of power exchanged in whispers, or the thrill of innocence tested, this might be your next late-night read.

Part One is 44 pages, leaving you hungry for more (Part Two is already simmering). Grab it here: The Sweetheart: Part One.

What secrets would you confess in a room like that? Drop a comment: I’m reading every one.
