I am so rarely on here but I am so!!! Frustrated! With tiktok! I hate that queer sex is “dirty” to that app! I think I have a personal watcher because they swoop in immediately if I post anything spicy even if I’m copying straight posts 💀💀

"You look at me and think you've done me a favor. I've never had a body that was truly mine. All you've done is made palatable, Rai, and I would rather die burning than let them swallow me easy."

Necromancer Rai risks hanging to resurrect his dead lover--only the man he brings back is a stranger now wearing his lover's corpse like clothing.

The stranger is Tamas, a trans activist killed in retaliation for the deaths of three witches. He wakes up in the cis body of someone he absolutely hates--his face was once that of his political enemy.

Rai can't shake his feelings, and Tamas has to contend with a new body.
