  Veronica’s dire warning awoke the pain slut within Ivone. She could take a 
  lot of pain. Oh, not knives or burning, although wax was okay if the Dom 
  knew what he was doing, but if he was good with a single or double tail, 
  she would bleed for him. She’d simply contract that he whip her only on 
  her lower back and buttocks, maybe the tops of her thighs. Those parts 
  she could cover in public with clothing. She wondered for a moment if he 
  shared his submissives with other Doms. She had yet to really give up that 
  part of her. Being handed off at her Dom’s discretion wasn’t something she 
  really wanted to do, although she had done a couple of threesomes, and 
  the sex had been very good, probably because she had been dominated. 
  And if he were a real Dom, he would learn that being shared wasn’t what 
  she really needed. She obediently followed Veronica to where this 
  Jamison Landry was slouched comfortably in a leather club chair. She kept 
  her eyes cast toward the floor, but noticed his thick black hair and 
  forbidding handsomeness. His eyes were hooded and in shadow, and she 
  wondered what color they were. She had the impression of a large, hard 
  body, and now, within view of her downcast eyes, she could see his

  Henry VII To Elizabeth I - A...

  Prepare for the most uproariously grim tour of Tudor England ever recorded! Gilbert Abbott A'Beckett's classic satire skewers the so-called "golden age" of English monarchy, revealing the Tudors as they truly were: a parade of tyrants, schemers, and royal disasters who treated their subjects like pawns in a deadly game of power. 
  Witness history's worst monarchs at their terrible best: 
  - Henry VII - The paranoid accountant-king who taxed England into submission while pretending to unite the realm. His reign ran on spies, forged claims, and enough gold to make a dragon jealous! 
  - Henry VIII - The original wife-disposer, whose marital musical chairs left two ex-wives headless and a nation bankrupt from his ego. His break with Rome? Just history's most expensive midlife crisis! 
  - Edward VI - The sickly boy-king whose advisors turned England into a Puritan playground where fun went to die (along with most of the treasury). 
  - Bloody Mary - The original firestarter, who turned heresy trials into London's hottest (literally) public spectacles. Her Spanish marriage? The Tudor equivalent of a disastrous Tinder date! 
  - Elizabeth I - The Virgin Queen (or so she claimed) who ruled with an iron ruff, executed her cousin for fun, and bankrupted England fighting wars while pretending to be immortal. 
  From the War of the Roses' messy aftermath to Elizabeth's dying delusions of grandeur, this book proves the Tudors were less a noble dynasty and more a reality show with better costumes and worse consequences.  
  A'Beckett's razor-sharp wit transforms historical atrocities into dark comedy gold, exposing how royal marriages were just preludes to executions, every royal proclamation hid a hidden tax or trap and the only thing growing faster than Henry VIII's waistline was his kill count. 
  Perfect for fans of Horrible Histories., with dark humor, historical atrocities, severed heads, royal tantrums, and exactly zero apologies for mocking the monarchy.
