VELVET Season One: Antlers
A downloadable book
Velvet youth, velvet bodies, velvet words.
How can a boy want for nothing and yet hunger for everything? Headstrong, beautiful, sparkling like the first glass of champagne in the evening—Kolt Lagos is a dazzling disaster. With a natural aptitude for the art of tuning, he is the sole heir to the Lagos criminal empire. Mere hours into adulthood, Kolt finds himself exiled from his family's main estate and shipped off to live in their gorgeous, isolated second home with no explanation, and no communication with the outside world. His only companion now is the groundskeeper who lives on the island.
Xavier Weaver has many roles. Groundskeeper, grave tender, tinkerer, and now: warden to the only child of his employer. Xavier has enough smoke in his lung to know when he is being led by the nose. He has no patience for Kolt's cloying words, or his desperate magic. Xavier knows better than to trust a tuner, let alone a Lagos.
Theirs is a legacy that grows and grows and grows...

I'm never gonna be normal about this story; just when you think Kolt and Xavier have enough problems on the surface, more keep creeping out from beneath the dust. Before they can even start to figure out how to take their first baby steps into a wholly inadvisable tentative alliance, the yawning expanse of horrors lurking in their shockingly-intertwined history threaten to swallow them whole constantly. And that's before factoring in the robot boys.
100/10, good slow and steady pacing, darkly gripping and unsettling, yet sweet and scorching hot in equal measure. NOT wholesome in the slightest, just human. Highly recommend subscribing on SubStar to read Season Two!!!
PS One is best boy and#1 Mom :)
