The author has a knack for bringing to life strong heroines faced by casually cruel, lawfully evil antagonists that use their eroticism to get inside their heads and corrupt them. Very enjoyable and of course hot.

The Crow Prince
AUTHOR’S NOTE: The Crow Prince is not my usual dark erotica. It exists at the intersection of dark erotica, dark fantasy, and dark romance with horror vibes. While there are tons of dark erotic goodness to be had, this is a 40K novella that focuses more on the fantasy plot and worldbuilding in some places and takes more of a dark romantic turn near the end (though this is NOT a romance). Please see the content warnings listed at the bottom if you have any strong aversions to certain material, but note that the warnings will give away parts of the plot.
I, Princess Heatherette, will break my country’s centuries-long tradition of deference and fear toward the fae. With rapid innovation in anti-fae weaponry and my enchanted ring, I’m confident I can drag my people into a future of prosperity and human ascendancy once I take the throne.
But when I ignore what I think is my father’s unnecessarily obsequious rule to stay away from the nearby forest said to be home to the Crow Prince, I’m forced to make a deal with the sinister fae lord: lie with him for one night every year and he’ll return the ring he stole from me.
Of course, I won’t; to do so might leave me fae-touched—forever altered by fae magic in a way that would make me an unpredictable pariah, stripped of my crown and every other freedom. But I must have my ring to ensure I remain heir to the throne, so I agree to his deal with every intention of destroying the vile creature if he insists on collecting his due.
I was so foolishly confident in the power of human technology against fae magic, especially magic bolstered by a broken vow. I ran from my promise with only my sworn knight at my side. Now the Crow Prince is set on taking what I promised him and making me understand in agonizingly intimate detail why every citizen of Etrea, from the lowest peasant to the king, himself, pays due respect to the fae lords of the Perishing Court.

Meet Taryn Moreau

Hi, I’m Taryn Moreau! I write gothic erotic horror and erotica about dark entanglements with compelling villains.
My stories often involve:
- Dark, intimate relationships (everything from married couples to enemies with benefits to stalkers and their victims) that embody gothic messiness, not romance
- True villain “MMCs”
- Fantasy or paranormal settings
- Bisexual and multiple partner shenanigans (but also plenty of MF)
- Edgy kinks like breeding and extreme power imbalance
- Stories that push (or obliterate) lines of consent (noncon, dubcon, relcon)
I love combining these themes with complex morally gray (or black) characters, thoughtfully crafted prose, and, of course, lots of dark sensuality and sex.
Get a Free Noncon Story
I’ve managed to stay under the radar my entire life, eking out a solitary living as a bartender at a luxury hotel, but when an unexpected vampire guest discovers I’m a werewolf, I’m at his mercy. He’s intrigued by my self-control around him, and might just be willing to let me go, if I meet him in his hotel room and do exactly as he says…
If I know anything about vampires, it’s that the only thing stronger than their cruelty and thirst for blood is their unquenchable lust. Maybe it’s my heat talking, but even though I’m terrified, I’ll do anything he commands to keep my freedom.
Losing Control is a 7.5K word noncon blackmail short story, free for a limited time.
