Synopsis from My Lord by L. B. Shimaira:
Tristanja, 1239 AD
Having lost her home and family in a raid, Meya flees east but is captured and abused by a slave trader before being sold to Lord Deminas, patron of the local lands. She’s forced to work as his chambermaid and discovers the Lord is as cruel as the rumours have made him out to be.
Yet, he’s rather protective of Meya and punishes anyone who dares hurt her. Even when he drinks her blood, he goes as far as to use his own to heal her wounds. Meya learns the castle holds many dark secrets; servants regularly vanish, including all the Lord’s previous chambermaids.
Meya and her paramour must ensure the same doesn’t happen to either of them, especially since it’s unclear if the Lord only desires Meya’s blood.
Excerpt from My Lord by L. B. Shimaira
“The cut… It hurts.”
Lord Deminas lowered himself and licked the wound a few times, his eyes fixed on Meya’s, taking in her suffering.
Meya’s nerves screamed from the sensory overload. Fucking sadist! Tears slipped from her eyes as she clutched the sheets in anguish.
The lord rose a bit and licked her neck. “Don’t forget that this is meant to hurt.” His hot breath against her ear made her feel weak.
He flicked his tongue against her earlobe, while at the same time pinching her nipple, causing her to moan softly. Meya’s mind had trouble forming coherent thoughts.
“You agreed to suffer in Gail’s stead.” He moved down again to lick the wound.
Meya winced. “I…I did, my Lord.”
He looked up, blood glistening on his lips. “If you can’t take it anymore, you may tell me so.” He licked his lips clean. “I’ll stop, however…” A devilish joy was visible in his eyes. “Gail’s punishment won’t end tomorrow morning.”
Meya swallowed. Is he seriously offering me a way out? She was quiet for a few seconds. “If… If we stop now… When will Gail’s punishment end, my Lord?”
Lord Deminas thought this over. “Tomorrow, after supper.” He lowered himself so his nose almost touched Meya’s. “Does that mean you wish for the pain to stop? Is it too much?”
Meya bit her lip. He’s enjoying this… But I’m no weakling! She kept her eyes locked on his and gathered her courage. “I don’t enjoy pain, my Lord,” she said calmly. “Yes, I want it to end, but no, it’s not too much.” She felt stronger having said that. And I’ve suffered this much already; I’m not going to quit now.

About the Author:
L.B. Shimaira is from the Netherlands, born in 1989, is married and has a daughter. She has a Bachelor of Applied Science degree and at the time of this publication (2020) works as a research technician, where she helps develop vaccines.
She considers herself a horror addict, having been into the genre since she was a little kid. As she often finds horror too predictable, she enjoys trying to make her own works full of surprises—and avoid the standard clichés.
The majority of her works are inspired by her own dreams and nightmares, giving them a vivid sense of realism. She struggled with depression as a teen, is a self-diagnosed autistic, and received therapy for PTSD in 2019. When she states she needs to write in order to stay sane, she means it.
She currently identifies as pan grey-asexual and recently discovered she is idemromantic. She uses she/her pronouns but is perfectly fine with they/them too. Thinking about her own gender too much can give her quite the headache—especially since feelings fluctuate—so she prefers to state her sex is female while her gender is simply queer. Polyamory tends to sneak into her works, even if just a notion, and LGBTQ+ characters are always present in her novels.
