Print Book Version of A Succubus for Christmas Available

Not actually ready in time for Christmas, sadly. I wanted to make sure the proof copies looked okay, and they were held up in the Christmas post.



Fortunately, the print-on-demand version looks okay, so I've made it go live on the Amazon store. You can find it here:
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0GDR1PBQS

This is my first collection back in "print" print with new cover art drawn by marwmellow (and very deceptive art at that - don't be fooled by her cuteness!).

I've tried to set the price as low as possible while still being able to make something from each sale. PoD paperbacks are sadly more expensive than mass-market paperbacks to produce, so $15.99 was as low as I can go.

Throughout 2026 I'll be commissioning new cover art and making more of the A Succubus for series available as print books. It will be nice to give them a physical presence on the bookshelf again.

New Edition of A Succubus for Christmas

My first collection, A Succubus for Christmas, now has a new cover (thanks to marwmellow).



This was supposed to celebrate me getting a new print version out, but I managed to bungle that. It's ready, but I want to order and check a print proof first to make sure there aren't any errors.

Unfortunately, thanks to the various HoHH releases, I left it a little late getting the full coverflat ready. And I also forgot this is the Christmas season, where the post is completely overloaded. So rather than turning up in about 4 days, I'm not going to get the print proof until the start of January. Ugh.

The good news is that everything is pretty much ready for the print version. As soon as I get the proof and can confirm there are no stupid errors, I will make the print version go live.

In the meantime, I thought I'd update the ebook version now, so at least one version of the Christmas book is out before Christmas.

It's not a new book, so don't buy it again if you already own it. All I've changed is the cover.

The main thing is that if people want a physical copy rather than ebook (which A Succubus for Christmas used to have back when I was with eXcessica), you will be able to buy that in a couple of weeks or so.

If you don't already own the collection and want to pick up the ebook. You can find it here on:

I still need to resolve a snarl-up between my Smashwords and Draft2Digital accounts, so only the older version is on Smashwords at the moment.

The print book version should be available in a couple of weeks.

I'm also planning to update the covers and put out print versions of the other A Succubus for collections throughout the first half of 2026.

Harlot Art Preview - Va-kyuuma

I'm still a little all over the place with keeping up with the public harlot art previews.  According to my list, it's the turn of the vac-bed specialist Va-kyuuma.



She likes to put men in her vac-bed and give them a nice long suck.

Art is by marwmellow.

You might have already seen her art as she was one of the pinups I had good results with when playing around grok's AI animate function.  As seen here:




And here:



After putting the new book out, I've been hard at work on House of Hellish Harlots.  I've put out a couple of new releases for the art version.  This gives each harlot their own unique room background.




For more details of where I'm at with the project, check out my Patreon or SubscribeStar.

Harlot Art Preview - Nef 0-CWMWL

My posting schedule for these is still a little erratic (but slightly more reliable on Patreon and SubscribeStar).  This is the enigmatic Nef 0-CWMWL.



Nef is an artificial creation that specialises in using aphrodisiac gases to overwhelm men with ecstasy.

Unfortunately, she can also make those gases extremely toxic to those who fail to meet her standards.

Art is by marwmellow.

Now that the new book is out, I've been switching my attentions back to HoHH, and in particular the art version of HoHH.  One thing that has been holding me back is harlot notebook functionality.  The code is pretty much in place, but it requires custom text and custom implementation for each harlot.  My current goal for December is to get that done for all the low-tier harlots so I can get the project moving again.

(And get that proper public demo out!)

Harlot Art Preview - Cibi Somnia

After a brief digression to get a new collection of short stories out, it's time to return to the House of Hellish Harlot art previews.

This is Cibi Somnia.  Don't fall asleep in her presence...




Art is by marwmellow.

"A Succubus for Social Justice" is out!

The new collection should now be live. Here are some links where you can find it.

Amazon (ebook and print)
Kobo
Barnes & Noble
Apple Books
Google Books
Smashwords

There is an issue with Smashwords at the moment. They were bought by Draft2Digital recently and I have accounts on both. For this book I had to go through D2D rather than upload to Smashwords directly, and it doesn't see the author accounts as the same. The book appears to be up ok, and it's still possible to find the older books by searching directly. I need to get in touch with D2D to properly merge the two accounts.

Also, if you're wondering why the covers are slightly different on some outlets - a strategic titles change was needed to cover up an exposed nipple. D2D wasn't happy with it. :D

There are 9 short stories plus the longer multi-part "A Succubus for Social Justice" story. I broke that into 4 "acts" so I can pretend the book has 13 "stories". Superstition, ah.

Here's the blurb:

Demonic Justice is like Cosmic Justice, just a little less... accurate.

Erotic Horror master M. E. Hydra returns with a seventh sizzling collection of short stories featuring sexy succubi and other monster girls.

“Outcall with a Succubus” sees an overworked politician receive a visit from an amorous guest. A man suffering from anxiety is prescribed an unusual vac-bed treatment in “Shiborito in the Bag”. A group of activists in “A Trial in Vennington” discover a succubus is not quite the instrument of feminist vengeance they hoped for. An arrogant mage in “Mage vs Succubus Slime” learns why it’s important to have a full party after he’s ensnared and drained of his levels by a special slime girl. And finally, “A Succubus for Social Justice” has a succubus used as a tool of assassination, until the wrong target is chosen...

Enjoy these and other dark tales of erotic evil. They’ll give you pleasures beyond your wildest dreams, and terrors beyond your darkest nightmares...

I hope you enjoy the book. Let me know your thoughts below (and especially if you run into any formatting or buying issues I might have missed).

This is going to be an odd one considering this is a supposedly a "short story collection", but please avoid posting spoilers. It's a bit more than a collection of "standalone" short stories...

Excerpt - Outcall with a Succubus

The new collection A Succubus for Social Justice officially out tomorrow.  It can be pre-ordered in ebook form here and the print version should also go live tomorrow.  Here is an excerpt from another one of the new stories.

This is from "Outcall with a Succubus", which is a direct sequel to the very first Nicole story, "Incall with a Succubus". In this, Nicole provides an outcall rather than incall service. There are also a lot of other shenanigans going on. The viewpoint protagonist isn't aware of them, but hopefully the reader will be able to figure out what's actually going on (you'll understand when you read the whole story). Once again, Nicole isn't being completely truthful...


"Do you have a spare room?" Nicole asked.

He took her to another room two doors down.

"It's in the middle of refurbishment," Newman said.

It would be more accurate to say it was at the beginning of refurbishment, and had been for some time.  It was originally going to be a children's room, but then Geneviève had... died.  Newman still didn't know what he wanted to do with it.  The walls were half painted.  There wasn't even a carpet on the floor.

"Maybe a bit too basic," Newman said.  "Not very comfy."

"No, it's perfect," Nicole said.

She walked in and looked around.

"Hold on," Newman said.  "I think I have an air mattress stored away somewhere.  It'll be better than doing it on the floorboards."

"That won't be necessary," Nicole said.  "I brought some kit with me."

She placed her chic black handbag on the floor and unzipped it.  The first items she removed seemed commonplace enough.  They looked like regular tealight candles.  Nicole placed them around the empty spare room.  What was less regular was how Nicole lit them.  She didn't have any matches or anything like that.  Instead, she just touched the wick with the tip of a long fingernail and it sparked into flame.  One of the advantages of being a hell demon, Newman supposed.

The candles also weren't as regular as they initially appeared.  After being lit, they produced copious amounts of scented pink smoke.  The room started to fill up with a pink haze.  The perfumed smoke also had an effect on Newman.  His head started to feel comfortably warm and fuzzy.  The fumes had a more dramatic effect... downstairs.

"You should take them off," Nicole said, glancing at the tented front of Newman's trousers.  "Before they get uncomfortable."

Yes, that would be a good idea, Newman thought.  His erection was feeling constricted.  He started to take his clothes off.

He paused his undressing when he noticed Nicole take a strange item out of her handbag.  It looked like a black egg made out of glossy black rubber.  Nicole held it in her palm and positioned her hand between her legs.

She turned to Newman.

"You can watch if you like, but I should warn you.  This might look a little strange."

Nicole had already removed her underwear.  She squatted down and pushed the black egg up between the folds of her labia and into her vagina.  Then she held her pose—as stiff as a statue.

A black rubbery bubble emerged from Nicole's vagina, and slowly expanded out between her legs.  It looked like she was blowing up a piece of bubblegum, but with her sex rather than her mouth.  She leaned back and extended her wings as the black something unfurled and rolled out across the floor.  Until, with a soft sigh, Nicole pushed the last of it out.  It lay on the floor, wet and glistening, a strange black cushion about seven or eight feet in diameter.  It seemed to dry and settle until the shape became more distinct.

It looked like she'd given birth to a circular air mattress and Newman had to stifle a giggle at how absurd that sounded.

"I did warn you it would look unusual," Nicole said with a sheepish smile.

"I guess that's why I don't need to fetch the airbed," Newman said.

"It's a special air mattress," Nicole said, "impregnated with succubus magic.  The process to inflate it is a little unusual."

"Definitely unusual," Newman said, "and a little kinky."

"Oh good," Nicole said.  "I was hoping you'd use that word."

She stood up and a pulse of heat radiated from her body.

"I have a little confession to make."

She looked uncharacteristically embarrassed.

"It's difficult to explain as the terms are not exactly analogous, but I'm in the succubus version of in heat."


Read the rest in the full collection, out tomorrow!
