Precious Playmates

Turep and Anrakor are members of the Nightbloom Clan, a reclusive tribe of the Desert Sea… but the two of them are much more partial to the comforts of the surface world than the hardships of their former lives! Together, the two of them join the ranks of the Precious Playmates: the perfect playthings, trained in the ways of housework, etiquette, and the all-important carnal arts before being carefully paired with their eventual master. The girls are sold into the service of a former starving artist, inheritor of a wealthy merchant’s estate, who naively seeks to protect the two from what he sees as the shackles of servitude—but before long, he too will succumb to the temptations of the Nightbloom kin! Precious Playmates may exist without a master… but when a master cannot survive without a Playmate, then who truly is the plaything?
