Sacrificed to Monster Gods
Content Notes

Willing Sacrifices is a collection of the first four novellas of Sacrificed to Monster Gods, including the prequel, Enthralled by Shadows -- Enthralled by Death, Enflamed by Fire, Ensnared by Dreams & Terrors, and Entrapped by Mythos.

Individual story content notes are on this page.

spooky vibes, mannequins, fated mates, sexual sacrifice, shadow monster, only teasing, consent checks, incomplete romantic arc (just a prequel)

This book contains frank discussions of death, including the on-page passing of a grandparent, the previous passing of a sibling and the resulting grief/trauma. There is no intention to glorify the act of dying or death itself.
 

At the end of the day, this is a spicy romance with a Death god and it’s possible for meaning to get misplaced. If any of this is not aligned with what you are comfortable with, I’ll be glad for you to pass on this book.
 

We all process in different ways, so please, take care of yourself. If you’re in the US, contact 988 to contact the crisis hotline if you need to talk to someone, they operate twenty-four hours of the day.

This story also contains dark humor, multiple POV, body horror, mild swearing, and some spidery limbs. As for the kinks, there’s elements of BDSM, primal play, mild erotic asphyxiation, size difference, breeding without pregnancy, excessive fluids, tail fucking, DP, ass play, and a special peen.

The heroine of this story is a non-op trans woman. If that makes you uncomfortable, please put the book down, return it, whatever you gotta do. This just isn’t for you and that’s fine with me. If it does make you uncomfortable and you still keep reading, I hope I make the land outside your comfort zone a good experience.

There is a dearth of erotic and romantic yet not fetishized trans content and a surplus of almost everything else. While there’s plenty of kink in this book, Serena’s gender is not the kink. I wanted to write a story about a woman just living her life like the rest of the ladies like her I know. 
 

With that said, there is no one trans experience. There is no perfect way to be trans. No perfect way to be a man or a woman, no perfect nonbinary experience.

If you are a woman like Serena and this book makes you uncomfortable at any time, I am even more eager for you to put it down for your mental health. 
 

You are valid. You are loved. You are enough.

There’s so much in our heads nowadays, I don’t want to add to the awfulness the rest of the world puts out there. I’ve been a part of trans conversations since I was twelve and questioning my own identity, so please know I write in earnest (I am, for the record, non-binary), but I’m human. I always appreciate feedback (good or bad)—you can send it through my website.

I love you, do what you need to do for you.

Discussion of Genitalia

Telling your partner how to refer to your privates should be more normalized. 
 

It’s only common sense not to call a person’s genitals their “gobsmacker” mid-coitus unless they want it, you know? By asking what they like, you might unlock a secret code.

This note right here is only here because you’re about to read from Serena’s perspective and the language might confuse you. Never ask a trans person what is in their pants unless you would ask a cis person in the same circumstances. 

Serena calls the appendage often referred to as a penis her clit. The testicles can be played with in a way that is analogous to being fingered in a vagina. Serena will call these her cunts. 

These aren’t the only terms trans women use, only the ones that felt right for Serena.

The Kinks
 

BDSM, breath play, degradation, branding, mating bite, overstimulation, leaving physical marks, big ol’ dragon dude, overprotective and possessive MMC (“MINE”), dubious consent, ride your ride or die, and playing with fire literally.

Wren’s mother has schizophrenia. Some of this book deals with the trauma of having a parent with a severe mental disorder and the worries that come of thinking you might inherit it too. If that would be triggering for you, please step away from this book. Take care of yourself.
 

Just as a note, schizophrenia is one of those disorders where being empathetic and kind to those who have it will result in better recovery for them, in general. And medication—real medication.

My aunt has it. It’s present in 1.5 million people. One of the major lies the media says about schizophrenia is that people with schizoaffective disorders are more prone to violence. But they’re actually more likely to hurt themselves.
 

In the US, if you’re experiencing a mental health or substance abuse crisis you can dial 988.

Also, this one is kind of a mind-twister to read. Dreams are not always linear.

THE KINKS

BDSM, a centaur with nightmare genitalia, a gender-ambiguous spider-centaur, M/F/Nbi, tentacles, shadows, fight fucking, CNC, and degradation.

The thesis of this whole series has been to literally fuck your fears and deal with mental health head on. With that in mind, Ursula is a person with Borderline Personality Disorder. I did my best to represent it with compassion, referencing both research and my experiences with people who have it, but it’s such a difficult diagnosis to pin down and resolve that my inbox is open if there’s something I messed up on.

In the US, if you’re experiencing a mental health or substance abuse crisis you can dial 988.
 

Ursula is also AFAB nonbinary and while they had top surgery to reduce the amount of breast tissue, it wasn’t to be completely flat. All nonbinary people feel differently about pronouns and surgery. Ursula uses they/them pronouns except at work. 

This is an “own voices” nonbinary story.

The Kinks

Minotaur MMC, Nbi/M, possessiveness/obsession, risky behaviors, CNC, light BDSM with both partners having a chance at dominance, and the MMC hurting himself to get to the human MC.
