We met when you were just a child, but you’re a man now and need my protection.
With Christmas Eve approaching, I’ll watch over you.
Whether you know it or not.
Because no one is allowed to hurt you.
No one but me.
At 20K words, He Sees You When You’re Sleeping is a twisted take on Santa, featuring M/M romance, horror, and the holiday season.
Who knew that Christmas could be dark? I don’t even know where to begin with this review because the story is unlike anything I have ever read before. It is the darker side of Father Christmas. The one that dabbles in death and voyeur-like sexual encounters. Kris and Jack’s story is one of intrigue and sadness. I had no idea where this unique love story was taking my emotions but, by the end, I found myself completely captivated with their excruciating beautiful journey. Go into this story blind. You will be blown away.
A taste
Jack moaned on the bed. He moaned as the blond man draped himself across Jack’s back and fucked him with his arms around Jack’s chest. The stranger’s open mouth closed on the side of Jack’s neck as they rocked together and fucked and fucked.
Kris had missed Jack so much. He pitched forward, and Jack reeled back, but Kris would have none of their distance. He dug his fingers into Jack’s hair and drew him in until their mouths met in a kiss nothing like their Christmas Eve affection. This kiss was rough and open-mouthed, feeding the need of a starving man.
The sight of Jack coming apart and the feel of his warmth encouraged Kris’s own release. When he finished, he made not a sound. Lightning bolts of pleasure shot through him and made his body tremble. A heavy feeling bubbled up in his chest; in his incoherency, he considered it a wellspring of emotion. Kris had wandered for so long and felt so little, but he now felt everything.
