About this listen

Grimbold Drake, influential patriarch of the Drake family, revels in his solitary life of order - a life which is thrown into chaos when his son pays him an unexpected visit, bringing with him a broken but gorgeous young man more than a millennium Grimbold’s junior. A man Grimbold instantly finds himself yearning to fix, protect, and claim.

Meek, subservient, and eager to please, Wally Brand doesn’t doubt the tales he’s been told of the cruel and deceitful Amethyst clan. So, when he’s forcibly taken from his home and entrusted to Grimbold Drake - the most powerful Amethyst dragon of all - he knows he won’t be long for this world.

Only, there’s a gleam in Grimbold’s eyes when he looks Wally’s way and a tenderness to his touch that Wally can’t understand. All he knows is one thing: Whether Grimbold means him harm or not, if he can be good to his dragon captor, maybe...just maybe, he’ll get out of this mess alive.

Swallow is a steamy omegaverse mpreg-ish romance set following the events of the Forbidden Desires series. It contains a broken young man who badly needs love, a curmudgeonly dragon with a heart of gold, new nicknames, familiar faces, and the sweetest dog known to dragonkind.

For maximum enjoyment, Swallow is best listened to as a companion piece to the Forbidden Desires series.

Fun, tender and moving hurt / comfort story!

I don’t normally like shorter stories but this was exceptional. Head of the Amethyst Clan, Grimwald Drake, is a very old and powerful dragon. When one of his sons brings Grimwald a broken omega called Swallow (Wally), the pair embark on a journey of healing and trust. This was a very tender and moving story. Wally has been systematically physically and mentally abused and brainwashed; he has no hope or trust and his thoughts and reactions are well-written. I enjoyed Wally’s focus on Buffy, The Vampire Slayer - one of my all-time favourite shows. 🎧 Michael Ferraiuolo again puts in a superb performance, his vocal range stretches from the deep, gruff Grimwald, the smooth tones of Everard, the squeaky voice of Harry, all the way to the soft tones of Wally.

Masterful!!

Make sure you’ve read the Forbidden Desires series (Clutch, Bond, Mate) before starting Swallow as you will need the background to get the most out of this very sweet and delightful story. Piper and Virginia have once again excelled at this shifter/MPreg tale incorporating some hurt/comfort elements – as well as making me want to eat a bunch of eclairs! This whole universe is one of my most favourite things ever and Swallow creates even more depth and sweetness to the Drake empire. The Audio is also superb with a masterful performance by Michael Ferraiuolo which just adds a whole new layer to the pleasure!
