Episode 36 - Gentlemen Prefer Villains (wsg/ Josh Fekete)

We here at Smutco Industries were so taken with Not All Himbos Wear Capes by C. Rochelle (the first book in her Villainous Things series) that we just had to cover the second book, Gentlemen Prefer Villains. We even brought friend of the pod (and guest from the NAHWC episode) Josh Fekete back because he wanted to hear what happened next. Dear listener, none of us were disappointed!

Book Description

Simon

I needed to get the hell out of Big City.

The only reason I was living in this American wasteland was because my mother insisted I reconcile with my estranged father. That the idea came to her while drunk on the French bubbly should have been my sign to stay right where I belonged.

Anywhere but here. Certainly somewhere more fabulous.

When an international job opportunity arises, I jump on board. It’s just a bonus that I’ll be traveling with the epitome of tall, dark, and handsome.

Make that muscular, morally gray, and hopefully, my next conquest.

What’s a casual fling between coworkers, after all? I’m ready for my next big adventure—far from Big City—so if whatever we’re up to is vaguely illegal, I’ll simply turn the other cheek.

It’s not like some superhero is going to swoop in and stop a couple of humans like us.

Wolfgang

I may have orchestrated my villainous parents’ deaths, but that doesn’t mean the crushing weight of my responsibilities is easy to bear.

My sister was the only one of my siblings who knew how badly they treated me. The only one I told how much I despise my powers. Now she’s on the run—leaving me to carry this alone.

But then I meet him. I may have hired Simon Alarie as my assistant, but it’s instantly apparent he’s much more than that. He’s not only intelligent and business savvy, but fiercely loyal, and the tastiest—most forbidden—little thing I’ve ever seen.

Nothing can come of it. Because if I touch him, he dies.

That doesn’t stop me from claiming him as mine. Whether or not this normie knows it, every inch of him—every breath he takes—belongs to me. And anyone who thinks otherwise will meet the Hand of Death.

CONTENT WARNINGS: violent battle scenes and gore, life-threatening situations and death, mentions of past parental abuse (including superpowered abuse), and sexual assault (on page).

TROPES: Achillian romance, anal, rimming, frotting, (debatable) felching, fated mates, hurt/comfort, size difference, leather kink, exorbitant gifts (bordering on financial domination), biting, marking, bruising, hand necklaces, primal play, spit kink, consensual non-consent, and two psychopaths in love.
