Traded to the Tentacle Gladiator
They did not rescue him from the wreckage.
They sold him.
Captured after the destruction of his freighter, Eli is displayed on an alien auction block and purchased by Xal’thar, the most feared gladiator in the Bloodspire. Enormous, tentacled and undefeated, Xal’thar has spent his existence fighting for the entertainment of cruel masters. Now he has claimed something for himself.
Eli becomes his property, confined to his den and marked by a collar he cannot remove. Yet the monster who owns him provides food, shelter and protection in a fortress where vulnerability invites violence. As rival gladiators challenge Xal’thar’s claim, Eli must decide whether escaping his captor is worth losing the only safety he has left.
But Xal’thar doesn’t want a broken slave.
He wants Eli’s willing surrender.
What begins as ownership slowly becomes trust, intimacy and a bond neither master nor captive expected. With the Bloodspire watching and their enemies waiting for weakness, Xal’thar will have to prove that Eli is more than property—and Eli must choose whether belonging to the monster means surrendering himself or finally claiming something of his own.
Traded to the Tentacle Gladiator is a complete dark MM monster-romance serial featuring alien captivity, forced proximity, possessive protection, tentacles, gladiatorial violence, dubious consent and an obsessive creature who will fight, kill and die for the human he claims.
