He drew nearer and she shut her eyes, fearful of those teeth, but she felt instead a wet nose on her cheek, the lap of a tongue. She opened her eyes and he was no longer a wolf. He was a man—a young man, crouching and naked as she was, his eyes as golden as ever. His hair was tangled and matted, his skin dirty. but he was beautiful to her; the strong muscles of his arms, the whorls of dark hair around his nipples, and slender thighs that concealed whatever it was between them as the dream became thinner and less substantial. Phoebe Flood, a watch mender's daughter from 19th century Blackfriars, is hired as lady's maid to the glamorous Louisa LeClerk, a high class tart with connections to the underworld of gentlemen pornographers. Fascinated by her new mistress and troubled by strange dreams, Phoebe receives an extraordinary education in all matters sensual. Her destiny and secret self gradually reveals itself when she meets freak show attraction Garou—The Boy Who Was Raised By Wolves.
