The Magician: A dark erotic short story (Pleasure In The Dark

Rate this book
Merlin was a magician. An illusionist. An entertainer.

A man thriving under the spotlight, but living in the shadows. A black hole in the ethereal universe. A dark trench in the endless ocean. He was everything I wanted and nothing I could have, just like magic itself.

But everything changed one fateful night.

Suddenly, from a damsel in distress, I turned into a trick he could play, showing me that illusions weren’t confined to the stage. I was the magic now, and for me to learn to control it, I had to do the one thing I couldn’t. Submit.


"The Magician" is a dark erotic short story, intended for mature audiences only!

115 pages, Kindle Edition

The Magician was delightful, a bit dark, quite mysterious, but altogether lovely. The themes of magic, flowers, and submission were wonderful, with imagery and language to match. There's a strong message here about believing in magic, and Steli makes you want to believe.

The slow progression from a fateful meeting to a second meeting, into teasing seduction, and ultimately into a relationship was very well done. It's not an altogether happy story-there are some dark thoughts, emotions, fears, and self-esteem issues-but it earns that darkness and pays off in the end.
