Vessel is a monster living in a dimension-hopping dungeon where his only solace is mercy-killing human prisoners. When one of these prisoners leaves Vessel a diary about his life as a monster hunter, Vessel imagines a new future for himself and takes on a human identity in an attempt to survive. Rescued by married monster hunters, Rhys and Sera, Vessel quickly finds himself overwhelmed by his secret, by the demands of pretending to be human, and by the intensity of falling unexpectedly in love with the pair. But if Rhys and Sera find out the truth, Vessel knows heartbreak won't be the the worst thing he'll face.... This book features a trans character in a setting where being trans is no big deal, badass disabled monster hunters, an enormous gruff swordsman who would do anything for his adorable bard, a back brace that doubles as armor, and a soft bisexual eldritch abomination learning what love really is. Please note, this book contains discussions of assault, cissexism, body horror, and violence

Chitterl is half-spider, half-woman, and fully dedicated to conquering humanity. She knows her place. She knows where she belongs: in the darkness. Then her best (well, only) friend turns traitor and runs off with a pair of bisexual humans. She's forced to hunt him down, with the lives of her unhatched eggs on the line. Undercover in a den of humans, she meets two men. One is a sunlight-haired warrior who adores her, is determined to protect her, and shows off for her at every opportunity. The other, a sickly but brilliant transmasc mage, is is prickly, brooding, and suspicious of her every action... even as an undeniable passion draws them together. Oh, and they're a package deal. Will Chitterl complete her mission, destroying the traitor and his human lovers? Or will she find redemption?
