What if loneliness wasn't an emptiness to be filled, but a vessel waiting for its purpose? From the sun-scorched sands of a forgotten temple to the cold vacuum of a sentient starship, and into the heart of a valley where nature's bounty hides an ancient pact, a singular, terrifying, and ecstatic truth awaits: woman is not merely creator, but the sacred vessel, the living engine, the source of a substance more precious than life itself.
The Milking Hive is a collection of three novellas exploring the boundaries of body, identity, and surrender. Each story follows a woman on the brink, isolated by her world, who discovers a connection so profound it shatters her humanity. She is chosen, transformed, and reborn for a single, overwhelming purpose: to produce the sacred milk that sustains an alien or supernatural hive.
This collection includes:
•Nestmother: Bred for the Hive's Milk Rituals
In the crumbling ruins of an Egyptian temple, a lonely archaeologist uncovers a secret far more alive than she ever imagined. The wasp-goddess and her children have been waiting, and they have a holy purpose for her body—to become the living font of their sacred milk rituals.
•Milked in the Engine
When her ship crashes at a quarantined refinery, a solitary pilot discovers the station is no longer inert steel and wire, but a living, breathing bio-mechanical entity. Captured and integrated into its systems, she is remade into a biological component, her body optimized for a single, chilling function: the endless, pleasure-induced production of fuel for the machine's evolution.
•The Cream-Hive's Bride
In a valley of eternal spring, a gifted milkmaid feels the pull of the forest's ancient secret. Chosen as the bride for a hive of sentient, flower-like beings, she willingly surrenders to a transformation that turns her into a divine vessel, her body an altar of ecstatic pleasure where she produces the ambrosial cream that ensures her valley's endless bloom.
This collection delves into the deepest archetypes of fertility and sacrifice, blending body horror, cosmic awe, and primal ecstasy. For readers who crave stories of profound and unsettling transformation, The Milking Hive offers a journey into the heart of the collective, where the loss of self is the ultimate price—and the ultimate reward.
Surrender. Transform. Lactate.
