Cat Toy by Illian Obsidian

John is a space pilot stranded in a strange planet without memory of his past life. He is hold in captivity by Tryl, a strong and domineering cat man who makes him his sex slave.

In this strange planet couples are made by a master and a slave and Tryl has decided to finally pairs with this blond hair and pink skin man he calls Yai. Yai is tender and cute, he fears everything, but not this big and impressive cat man, who makes love to him so tenderly. And he also takes care of him and Yai, for the first time, feels like someone loves him.

Yai is more than willing to accept his new state of slave. He likes Tryl and not objects to be his sex toy. He wants to please him, he likes to please others, and the reward he receives pleasing Tryl is very sweet. Yai is a strange character, I can't understand how old he is, but he looks to be very young and very innocent.

Tryl is a very self-conscious man. He has no doubt he will take Yai as slave and that Yai will not deny him. He is a leader and he really thinks that being his slave Yai will have a better quality of live than he had previously. If not for the gentle manners he has with Yai, he would be a very irritating character. But he is so gentle and caring with Yai, that you forgive everything to him.

This is a really classical yaoi story. The very elements of the genre are abundantly used in the plot: the cute uke, with watery eyes and shy behavior, the strong seme, tall and powerful, who pleased his slave but also punished him when necessary, bringing pleasure with pain.

Even if pretty short, it is an arousing tale with two complete characters who remind me of an old "bodice-ripper" romance, The Warrior's Woman by Johanna Lindsey.

it has very good reviews on Amazon, but I have bought the ebook version. I discover this new e-pub, Loveyoudivine, who has, for now, a limited catalouge of Yaoi titles, but I have bought almost all of them: the first four chapters of The Agency Series by J.J. Massa, another tale by Illian Obsidian, about a Pirate and his slave, and the Complete Pet Series by Nix Winter (this last I'm reading now and it's good).

I am glad you reviewed this book! I had bought it from loveyoudivine a while back and when my hard drive obliterated everything, I went back to try to ask for mercy and/or buy it again and it was gone! I can now add it back to my elibrary (in two different places). :)
Thanks...and Happy New Year!

Yes, Torquere Press re-released the book and I updated the review I originally made for it. It is a book I read at least three time, I like it a lot. Elisa
