Queen Mistress: An After Dark Series
MADAME BLADE
She's held a thousand hearts in her hands. She's never let anyone hold hers.
At forty-two, Dr. Naomi Cross is one of the top cardiothoracic surgeons in the country. She's the one they call at 3am when someone's chest is open and the attending is in over their head. Her hands are legendary steady, precise, capable of miracles. She hasn't lost her composure in the OR in fifteen years. Hasn't been touched without gloves in four. Hasn't stopped saving everyone else long enough to notice that no one is saving her.
Then the black envelope arrives.
DIAMOND CODE.
No address. No explanation. Just an invitation to twenty-four hours inside a world built for women exactly like her women who fix, who carry, who hold everyone else together while quietly bleeding out from wounds they won't let anyone see.
Sir Wolf doesn't see a surgeon. He sees a woman who's been dissecting herself for years.
He's not like the men she's known. He doesn't strategize. He doesn't negotiate. He HUNTS. He tracks what she needs before she knows it's there, reads her body the way she reads EKGs fluently, instinctively, without hesitation. He won't let her observe. Won't let her analyze. Won't let her retreat into the clinical detachment that's kept her safe and numb for years.
He doesn't ask for her control.
He pulls her out of her head and into her body.
What begins as a single negotiated night becomes a complete excavation of the grief she's been carrying since the patient she couldn't save, of the isolation she's called independence, of the woman underneath the scrubs and the composure and the steady hands that have never once reached for someone and asked to be held.
Some women cut to heal.
Others cut to hide.
Queen Mistress: An After Dark Series follows powerful Black women who enter DIAMOND CODE and walk out changed. Each book is a complete story.
MADAME BLADE is a BWWM erotic romance featuring a Black female cardiothoracic surgeon, a Consort who operates on instinct rather than intellect, and the kind of raw intensity that only happens when a woman who's spent her life fixing everyone else finally lets someone find what's broken in her.
Content Warning: This book contains explicit sexual content, BDSM elements including power exchange, restraints, and sensory deprivation, and intense emotional themes including grief and emotional numbness. Intended for readers 18+ only.
