Welcome to my little stop on the Saturday Spanking's Blog Hop!
My contribution:
Yare'ach genuflected before his Lord, grateful that the posture hid his face, for he was certain his regret was writ bold across it. When Lord Ayve order him naked, he felt only relief that he would be permitted to expunge his fault so easily. The minor pain of a beating was worth it. He'd have taken a thousand and still fallen to his knees in gratitude.
The context:
A Hope in Hell tells the story of the meeting and beginning of the love affair of Yare'ach, an angel trapped in Hell, and the demon Lord Ayve. A Hope in Hell attempts to create a unique and plausible vision of Hell, and sympathetic but strong characters who, in trying circumstances, find a way to reach out to each other. Sympathy, the sequel to a A Hope in Hell, also included in this edition, continues their romance.
