Magic & Home by Alexa Piper
Genre mm post-apocalyptic monster romance
Book heat level (based on movie ratings): R
Over the past two years, Rory has learned that other people aren’t the best of company, that the guilt of causing the Apocalypse is a heavy burden, and that monsters only see him as a meal. Until Rory met Inkiri, who sees Rory as his mate.
Now, Rory has to navigate what it means to be with someone who not only isn’t human but who also is from another world altogether… and since Rory finds himself in that otherworld all of a sudden, he has to adapt fast. Inkiri definitely has no intention of slowing down in his quest to make his human mate happy.
While Rory is beginning to wrap his head around liking the new place and the new customs, he can’t relax into a peaceful happily ever after because whatever connection Rory has to the magic that unleashed the Apocalypse, people want that, meaning they want him. Where Rory and his newfound family ran to may not have been far enough to escape their pursuers’ clutches.
Let’s chat about what to eat
First, what is your name and how old are you?
Hi, I’m Rory, and I’m twenty-three.
What is your favorite meal?
Mmh. I’m not sure what it’s called. Inkiri–that’s my not-quite-human mate, took me to his world the other day, and they have this stuff, which is like a gel. A little like aloe I guess, but it tastes flowery and a little spicy. I really liked it, but I never asked what it was called. There is lots of interesting food on Aër, the monster world. Also some stuff that I don’t care for.
If any, what food do you refuse to eat?
Massacre buns. They are actually called massa buns, and they are vile. They’re super oily and taste like cilantro and raisins, just ugh. Cannot recommend.
Tell us about a meal or food that says “home” to you.
It’s not any specific food, but sometimes when I get to watch people cook and they enjoy it, I totally get nostalgic vibes that take me back to my childhood and the really good au pairs. Oh, I have to mention Nokim’s banana bread of course. Nokim is part of our monster and human found family unit, and sometimes what he cooks up is strange, but it’s usually tasty.
When you find yourself with some type of unknown food on your plate, what do you do?
Yeah… after the massacre bun incident, I’m really careful now. I suppose if I didn’t know it at all, Inkiri would taste it first to check if it’s something I’d like. He’s all caring like that, you know.
What is the worst meal you’ve ever eaten?
Massacre. Bun.
Do you skip breakfast or is eating that a must-do for you?
Breakfast is okay. I skip it sometimes, but not usually, because it gets Inkiri upset and all worried about me.
Do you keep snacks on hand, and if so, what are they?
I don’t, but you know what? Inkiri always carries some nuts on him. It’s for the birds though! He’s a real bird whisperer.
How much coffee or tea do you drink?
I like coffee, and living in the Apocalypse really makes you appreciate stuff like that. I savor it more than I did before.
Who are your favorite people to share meals with?
My guys. They are the best. I know we aren’t related and we couldn’t be more different what with them having horns, but they’re family.
