Alright, its that time again! Chapter 21 is up! I’m happy to report with extra spare time I finished the chapter in good time, just over 2 weeks. This chapter picks up right where 20 ended with a long overdue check in on Margot and an unexpected consequence of her actions in Alex’s absence. We also get our first real glimpse of the harem’s newest member as she spends some time with Alex and Emma in the punishment room. There is some good, rough action in this chapter, so if you’re a fan of that kind of thing, I suggest checking it out. It ends with a dark hook for 22, and I’m really excited to begin work on it. I can’t yet say when I’ll start working on it, or how long it’ll take, but as long as I’ve got extra time, I plan to put a lot of work into it. Again, I wanted to thank everyone who reads BDH, and invite you, if you’re a fan to please stop by my thread on this forum. It’s located in the Het-Male/Female section of the Celebrity Fiction heading in the All Other Subdomains group here in in the AFF forum. I always appreciate all comments and criticism or ideas you’d like to express, so please drop on by. Thanks again, and I hope you all enjoy the latest chapter. I’m Back to the Black, Mal

I know I said the first week of July, but I decided I’d make it the first day of July instead. Ok, as I stated earlier. Chapter 21 picks up right where 20 left off, Immediately following Margot. There is an unforeseen consequence of her actions while Alex was away, and then we finally get to see Felicity in action in the punishment room. After that, I set up a dark hook for the next chapter. I hope that isn’t giving too much away, but I’m really excited about this chapter. I think its one of the best I’ve done, since maybe 16. Also, this chapter, in my opinion, is pretty dark, there is a pretty rough sex scene. I hope you all like it. I don’t know when I’ll start work on chapter 22, but this chapter has gotten me very excited to begin working on it, so probably soon, and since I still have extra free time it is my current hope to get it done quickly. Yes, that means I haven’t yet found a new job, but the search is progressing, and I’m hoping to find something soon. Anyway, I don’t really want to talk about that, I’d rather talk about you guys. Juan: Thanks for the sympathy bud, it means a lot to me. The map is done, I’m hoping it will be at the bottom of this post. Assuming the file meets the size requirements, and it isn’t turned around all upside down or something. If I can’t get it to work in the forum, I’d be happy to send it to anyone who sends me an email request. As to Chloe, I’d say a bit of both. I don’t think a chapter from her POV would work until she gains enough freedom to think for herself. But in all likelihood, I will do a POV of her struggling to break free of the mental conditioning. I can’t tell you just what’s in store for Margot, all I can say is that it won’t be very nice, but I hope you all will like it anyway . Thanks again for your contributions, it really helps me to know that you and the other frequent commenters are there supporting me and reading my work, I don’t know if I could keep it up without you guys. Well: I really don’t see a scenario where the guards build a set and film a porno. For one thing, there wouldn’t be anyone to see it. Also, I don’t think the celebs would ‘like’ to act in something like that, especially if they thought it was something other people might see. I would more likely use filming or picture taking as a way to humiliate or potentially blackmail/force a celeb to behave. As I’ve said, I might do something like that in the future, I just don’t see it resembling a porno… Thanks again for the comments and questions, keep it up. Ok guys, I’m going to see if I can post this map of the complex here. If it doesn’t show up here, it was either too big to load, or I’ve deleted it because I couldn’t get it to orientate in a way that makes sense. If it isn’t here, and you’re interested in seeing it, please please please drop me an email. I spent 5-6 hours drawing this thing and I really want you guys to see it. Here goes: I’m not sure if that worked, lol I guess we’ll see. Ok, I hope you guys enjoy the chapter, and I look forward to reading any comments you guys have on it. I’m Back to the Black, Mal BDH Map.pdf <<Ok, it’s pretty clear this link to the map doesn’t work. That said, I’m going to leave the link here to alert readers that a hand drawn map of the complex exists. But, THE LINK DOES NOT WORK. If you want a copy of the map, please drop me an email. You can get my address by clicking on my avatar next to this, or any of my posts, and I’ll pass it along to you straight away.>>

Hey everyone, just popped in for a quick update. Chapter 21 is well on its way. I’m a little more than half way through the writing. At this point, I hope I can have it up by the first week in July. The chapter picks up immediately where we left off in chapter 20. It will start off with Margot, where I have something very interesting in store for you all. Then we’ll see what’s in store for the newest member of the harem, and I hope to end with a nice hook for the next chapter, which I plan, yes, to take place on day 26, lol. I have to say so far, this might be one of the darkest chapters I’ve yet written. I can’t say for sure yet just how dark it will be, but if things go according to my plan, those of you who enjoy the rough darker things, should be in for a treat. I hope that isn’t giving to much away, but I’m really excited about this chapter, and its my hope that you guys will be too. Anyway, on to you guys: Lazyninjas: Hey man, I’m happy to offer words of encouragement to a fellow writer. I know, and I agree with you, sometimes a few nice words are all you need to keep going. I hope your work on the next Waking Up is proceeding nicely, and that you’ve picked another great celeb to focus on. Thanks for the well wishes with the job hunt, that isn’t proceeding as well as my next chapter, but it is coming along. Anyway, I wanted to say thanks for the encouragement, and hoped to offer you some of my own. Well: You’re welcome, in regards to Taylor and Bella. In truth, I’m glad I could fulfill the request you made. Its not easy to fit such things in, which is why it took so long to do. I can’t promise I’d be able to fulfill such requests in the future, but I do love to hear them. Requests, at the least, give me ideas on what you guys like and want to see, and sometimes directions on where to take the plot. Question, when you’re asking about Alex’s mates, do you mean the guards? As to the porno set… I can’t say I’ll be doing something like that. I might at some point do something with filming or pictures as I said before, but I don’t think it’ll be anything like a porno. Sazbi: As always, bud, thanks for the comments, and thanks for the well wishes on me finding a job. I know that you’re disappointed that Toy will be returning to Chloe, but I really do think she’ll be more interesting as a recovering toy, than as a sub dependent on Emma for everything. As to Taylor, I do have a few things in mind for her, some of which you’ll be getting a glimpse of in the next chapter. I hope you like it . And, with Margot, as I mentioned, she’ll be starting off Chapter 21, and will certainly not be in limbo. I really think you all will enjoy everything that’ll be going on in the next several chapters. Ok everyone, just wanted to give you guys a quick update. Chapter 21 should be up in early July, and I already have several ideas for what’s going to happen in chapter 22 so hopefully I can get it up and going quickly there after. Alright, I’m Back to the Black, Mal

Well I’m back everyone! I finished chapter 20 tonight, and just now posted it. I must say that this chapter was more of a fight than almost any other. There was so much negative stuff going on in my life, with losing my job and all the shit that I’ve been dealing with since, I’m amazed I finished this mostly on time. I was in quite a funk there for a few days, but things are slowly looking up for me. I have a few prospects out there, and more importantly I don’t feel, emotionally, as bad as I have been. Chapter 20 may not be my longest or most complex chapter, but in a lot of ways with all this crap going on in my life it was one of the most difficult I’ve worked on. I really hope you all enjoy it. Chapter 20 picks up right were we left of in 19. In it, Alex and Emma work to resolve the events which occurred in 19, and Bella explores a relationship with a new friend. I hope that isn’t giving to much away lol. I hope to begin working on chapter 21 asap, but my first priority must be finding a new job. If I could support myself by writing this story, trust me when I say I would, but the reality is I need a new job. Now obviously looking for a job won’t consume all my day, and I do hope to work at chapter 21 as much as possible. I should, at least until I do find a job, be able to put even more time into writing than usual, and we’l just have to see how long it takes me to get it done. Right now though, there is no way I can offer up an estimate as to when I can release it. I can say that 21 will likely pick up right where chapter 20 left off, but it should also finally see the end of day 25 lol. From there, I’ll have to access the situation to see if moving time forward till the arrival of Cara is appropriate, or if there is anything else that needs exploring before I can fast forward time. Anyway, that’s my plan, and my current situation, on to the important thing, you guys! Well: Thanks for your sympathy bud, I really appreciate it. As I’ve said on more than one occasion, I enjoy the responses and support you all give me as much if not more than writing the story itself. I can honestly say if it wasn’t for you guys I’d have probably given up on this a long time ago. I do this as much for you, as for me. That said, I hope your right, I have a few feelers out there now, and a couple of applications out, and I have high hopes that one of those will lead to something new and better for me… I haven’t really delved into punishment for not doing chores, as such I haven’t given it much thought, but its a great question. Off the top of my head, I’d say the punishment room would be too extreme for a first time offense. But, I could see that repeat offenders might end up spending some time in there. I would say it might be a three strike system, first a warning, then the loss of privileges, like TV time, then the punishment room. The porno idea is an interesting one, and maybe I’ll do something with filming or taking pictures or something like that, but I don’t think Alex would send girls to the punishment room for not making a good film… The punishment room is really for serious rule infraction, and is kind of a big deal… Thanks again for your questions and comments man, I do appreciate it. Also, I wanted to add, bud that this chapter fulfills a request you made of me a long while back, so I really hope you enjoy the scene in this chapter. It was your idea, but I hope everyone can enjoy it. Steel: As always, its nice to see a new face here in the thread. Please always feel free to chime in with all your questions and comments. I love talking with you guys about my story. Here are your answers. 1) Cara hasn’t yet arrived. As we learned in chapter 17 Cara was kidnapped, just as planned. She is currently in a shipping container on a boat in the Atlantic Ocean. She is due to arrive in the compound on day 30 or so. 2) The underground complex, as I’m Batman has stated is big. Alex spent a billion dollars on the mansion above and the compound below. Both are new and top of the line structures. It has 10 bedrooms, but we’ve only currently seen 5. The main dorm area and its bedrooms are just one part of the compound. As we will learn in chapter 20, there is a whole other wing. The VIP wing is for ladies of level 4 or higher. It contains 5 luxury suites and a smaller, but more lavish living area, in addition to some other goodies that I’ll be revealing at a later time. This brings me to a question. I’ve been toying with the idea of creating a rough drawing, a map if you will of the complex. If you guys are interested in seeing me post such a map let me know, I may work up the motivation to draw it if you guys want to see it. Anyway, thanks Steel for the questions, I really hope you continue to contribute to the thread! I’m Batman: Thanks for answering Steel’s question in my absence. Your information is more or less correct. Though I think the description of the compound mostly comes in chapter 3. At this point though I’ve been trying to include information about the compound in each chapter, just to give you guys a better vision of what it looks like. As I said above, I’ve been considering posting a rough map of it, if you’re interested let me know and I’ll try to work on it. Ok guys, its been a killer long day for me, and I need some sleep. So here is chapter 20, enjoy! I’m Back to the Black, Mal

Ok folks, the next chapter is up! Chapter 20 was a long time in coming, and I apologize for that. A lot of real life, real shitty things happening slowed down my work, and quite frankly there were a few days there where I barely got out of bed… But, I’m out of the funk now, and while I wouldn’t exactly say things are better, they are trending upwards, and that’s all I can really ask for. Anyway, Chapter 20 picks up moments after chapter 19 ended. Alex and Emma work on a resolution to their problems, and Bella has an intimate moment with a new friend. I hope you all enjoy it. This might not be my longest, or most complex chapter, but I put a lot of work into this just by virtue of all the crap that was going on in my life while writing it. I hope you all enjoy it.

Hey everyone, I’m just popping on for a quick update. Since my last update 10 days or so ago, real life, and the real world in general have been kicking my ass. I won’t go into excessive detail but I lost my job, and things just sort of degraded from there. Its actually been a really rough few days for me. But, don’t get down, I’m getting by, and every day things are getting better for me. As to the story, well up until about four days ago, I only had a single page of chapter 20 written. Again, I’d urge you to not get down. Over the last 3 days, I’ve written about six / six and a half pages. So, I’m still confidant I can get the chapter ready by mid June. I’m looking at hopefully releasing the chapter on the 15th. Obviously, this is all subject to whether or not the chapter is ready on that date, its not that far away, and the chapter is only half way done. But I think its an achievable goal, as long as nothing else in my life goes wrong… Well, that’s my plan, now on to you guys! Well: Again, bud, I’m glad you enjoyed the chapter. The gifts they asked for will be doled out over time, probably over the course of many chapters. The main reason for this is because I want them to be something special for each character, and for that I’ll want the chapter they receive them to revolve mostly around that character. Alex did more than just buy them the gift the asked for though. He also bought them gifts that he wanted them to have. Many of these are smaller, and may be given out in chapters that don’t focus as much on the character in question. I’d look for some of the girls to start receiving gifts as early as chapter 20, and for gifts to be given for a while into the story. Many of the chores of the harem are assigned. But in the case of laundry, I always imaged the girls doing their own. The one case where this may not end up being the case is with the level 5. She will have enough responsibilities and power that she will certainly be able to get someone else to do it for her. That said though, I don’t really have plans for anyone getting their clothes sabotaged, or for their undies to be damaged or stolen. There will be plenty of sexual adventures without the need for shrunken clothes or missing panties . Juan: I have almost all of Emma and Alex’s talk written. Its currently taking up about seven pages in word lol! I can say that its pretty interesting stuff in my opinion. I hope you all agree when you get to read it. I won’t give away the story as to who is in charge, but I will say that while the seeds you mention were most certainly planted, by the time of Alex’s return, the only one of the ladies who are mad or upset with Emma is Margot… That said, if there was a change in leadership, I don’t know that a sex competition would be how Alex would look to fill the role. The person in charge needs to have a lot more than sexual freedoms to run things down there . As the harem grows, and in some ways even how things sit now, cliques will form. Not only will they form, but they will fall apart, expand, and change as things happen. I do think that this will lead to rivalries with the girls, but I doubt Alex will be encouraging open competition between them. I would say this is mostly because he wants everyone to be happy, and despite his flaws, he doesn’t want to leave anyone out, or make them feel less apart of his “family” than anyone else. I think Alex encourages being sexually adventurous through the ranking system, and his one on one time with each girl. layzninjas: Hey man, welcome to the thread. Are you the same lazyninja who writes the waking up series? I haven’t read them all, but I love Waking Up Taylor Swift! If you’re one in the same, good work, bud, keep it up! I’m glad you’re enjoying my story, and thanks for the kind words. As to Cara and Ariana. Cara will be in soon, depending on how many chapters it takes to get Alex settled back in from his long absence. If I were guessing though, I would say in three, maybe four chapters, will see the arrival of another sexy Brit to Alex’s harem. Ariana however, is a more difficult question. With the attack in Manchester, I want to wait a while before I bring her in. I feel like its a little disrespectful to do so without at least a little time in between. But, just as big a factor in her entrance is dealing with the two new arrivals, specifically Felicity and Cara. I can say with certainty that no one new will arrive until they are settled in and I’ve dealt at least somewhat with the ups and downs of two new faces in the harem. That in and of itself could take seven, eight, maybe ten chapters to work through. I feel that by then, I will be ready to bring Ariana in. I know that’s sad news for many of you, after the hype of the fan selected poll, but it is simply what it is… Ok everyone, thanks again for reading along. The comments and questions you leave, again brighten my day each and every time I see something new pop up here. Please keep it up! You guys mean the world to me, I mean it! I’m Back to the Black, Mal

Hey everyone! Looks like several of you have taken the time to chime in on the poll, and offer up your overwhelmingly positive opinions on the latest chapter. I’m very glad everyone seemed to like the chapter. I really hoped everyone would enjoy Alex’s triumphant return. In news, I started working on Chapter 20, but haven’t gotten too far yet. I kind of wanted to take it slow after pushing out two chapters in such short time. Though I do plan to do a good bit of writing on Monday, since I have the day off. I can’t say for sure when I’ll have it done, but as I said earlier, I hope I can have it done my mid June. Although I haven’t quite yet decided what I’m going to do with Toy/Chloe, but I may end up not exploring it too much in Chapter 20… I plan on letting the writing take me where it does, and go from there, since even if I do decide to “fix” Toy, that transition will likely take place over the course of a few different chapters. Ok, on to you guys: Guest: Thanks for recording your vote. I had a pretty good idea that was what you meant, that you wanted someone who was loyal, but ruthless like him. I guess what I meant, is that I’m not sure Alex would ever allow, even a loyal person to have as much authority as him. He would see such a person as a potential threat, but more importantly, a major potential security risk. I mean lets just say that the potential Harley Quinn was actually just pretending. The second he gave her the opportunity, she could escape, and blow the lid off Alex’s entire operation. I’m not saying that Alex won’t entrust some authority in one of the ladies, that is essentially what the level 5 position is all about, and that that person couldn’t be crazy and loyal to Alex, just like Harley. I’m just saying that Alex would never give equal power to one of the ladies in his harem. It’s just too big of a risk. I like your ideas about using the “Toy” collar as punishment. I may end up using it, if I decide to “fix” Toy. As to Emma, I haven’t yet decided what I’m going to do with her, but I doubt she’ll endure much more punishment, unless the writing of this chapter takes me in a different direction than I imagine. Sazbi: Thanks for voting, I really appreciate it. If I do decide to keep Toy as a toy, I don’t know how easy it would be to do POV’s from her perceptive. I’m not saying that someone who would choose to be a full-time Sub wouldn’t be interesting. But as a Sub, they are entirely reliant on someone else to tell them what to do, and as such they’re inherently not very interesting… As to your comment about whether or not the girl’s would respect the level 5 after Alex’s show of authority, I’d have to say yes. I mean the girls don’t really get a say in who is the level 5, and they know there is punishment in store for whoever disobeys the Master’s will, so the girl’s really don’t have a choice but to accept and at least put on a show of respect for whomever he puts in charge. I’m glad you like my choice to include Felicity, I hope you enjoy what I have in store for her. Juan: I love your idea for Emma and anal, I wish I’d thought of it while I was writing. I may end up using it in the future, we’ll just have to see where the story goes. As I said, I’m not sure how much more punishment Emma will have to endure for now. For one thing, I don’t want to focus on her to the extent that the other characters get ignored… I’m really glad that you caught the hint I dropped in the iPad message. When I wrote that line about London, and picking up a few things, I was most certainly referring to Felicity. I wondered how many people would catch that when she finally came in. I like your rational for “fixing” Toy. I know that if I go that route, it won’t be an easy fix, and she won’t revert back to directly how she was beforehand. For one thing reverting like that would be very unrealistic, and I try to have realism at least as character arcs are concerned. However, I don’t know that the “only” way to bring her back would be to turn Emma into a toy. It will be a long process, probably taking several chapters to finish. I can honestly say, that I’m excited to see where it goes. I have a few ideas, that will guide my writing, but at this point I don’t have any concrete plans for Emma or Chloe. Grim: Thanks for the vote, bud. I really appreciate it. As I said above, I doubt very much that if Toy gets “fixed” that she’ll be the same person she was beforehand. I would imagine that she will be much more subdued for many chapters afterwards. I think seeing Taylor rise to the level 5 is an interesting idea, and I would imagine how she is now, she would be crazy loyal to Alex. It would certainly be exciting to see what that would look like. As I said above, at this point even I am not exactly sure where the story is going in this next chapter. So I can’t say for sure if your theory will pan out. I know if Taylor does rise up, it would require at least two other pieces to fall first . Finally, I like your edging idea for punishment, I used that some already with Toy, though I didn’t play it up like I probably should have. I may end up using it again in the future in a more extreme way. We’ll just have to see. Hypnotizer18: Hey, nice to see a new face here, welcome! Thanks so much for the kind words, man. As an artist, it is always appreciated to hear that someone enjoys your work. I put a lot of time and effort into this story, and every time someone tells me they enjoyed it, I feel like that work is worth it. I’m glad you like the inclusions of Cara Delevingne, and Felicity Jones, I am excited myself about some fresh voices in the story. As to the inclusion of Peyton and Ariel, I think they are both pretty hot, but unfortunately, you just missed a long running poll for the fan selected addition to the harem. All the other additions will be decided by me, and I really don’t have either of those ladies on my radar for inclusion. Either way, it will probably be several chapters before I bring in anymore new blood. Anyway, thanks again for adding your voice to the thread. Please feel free to chime in with comments or questions whenever, I’m always interested in hearing what my readers have to say. Well: Thanks for the vote, it seems for now, most people are interested in Chloe’s return. We’ll just have to see what happens… I’m really glad to hear how much you loved the chapter. I’m curious why you think it’s my best? What part of the chapter was your favorite? OK everyone, I mostly sat down to respond to all the awesome comments and questions since my last post. Thanks again everyone for participating, it means a lot to me to hear from you guys. I’m Back to the Black, Mal

Hey everyone, chapter 19 is up. Alex is back, and he is back with a vengeance! Yes, everyone’s favorite fictional celebrity kidnapper is back, and he has a lesson to teach the girls in his dungeon. I finished this chapter in record time, I pushed myself hard, to get this done quickly for two reasons. One, is of course, because I was so anxious to get Alex back, but second, is because of the big surprise I have waiting for you all at the end. I am very excited about it, and I hope you guys will be too. I feel like this chapter had a pretty good balance between smut and story, maybe slightly skewed on the smut end, but isn’t that why we read it . Well: Glad you’re looking forward to it, its ready for you to read bud, have at it! Guest: I like the idea of a villain, but I’m not sure I’m going to do something like that. For one thing, I don’t know if Alex would foster anyone whose authority could rival his own. I think if he accidentally kidnapped someone who turned out to be as zealous and arguably crazy as himself, he would end up having to break them into something similar to Toy, in order to preserve his own authority. Ok guys, its poll time! I have a new poll for you guys, and its going to be a much shorter termed one than the last. I have heard from several of you about Chloe/Toy. Some of you think that Alex would never allow Toy to continue to exist, that he would try to “fix” her to turn her back to normal. Others, like the idea of Toy, and think Alex would be fine with it. Here is the poll question, and its a two parter: 1) Chloe or Toy? Would you rather Alex fix Chloe, or keep Toy? 2) In the event that Chloe returns to normal, or a second celebrity screws up badly enough, would you like Alex to turn someone else into a pet or toy? The poll begins to day, and will conclude on June 12. So if you want to offer your opinion, I wouldn’t wait too long. As always, you can email me if you don’t want your opinion to be known on the thread. But, unlike the last poll, I am using this purely to gauge everyone’s interest in this subject, the results of the poll are not necessarily binding. The next chapter probably won’t come quite as quickly as this one, but I do hope to have it ready by mid June. Finally, in closing i just wanted to offer a small bit of news. Right before I posted Chapter 19 tonight, Billion Dollar Harem officially passed 30,000 Dragon Prints!!! Again, I’m not 100% sure how these are calculated, but I believe they are the number of times a story has been read, per chapter or something like that. Either way, I am humbled and awed by the response my story has gotten, and honestly couldn’t be happier. I can only hope the level of enthusiasm and response continues. As always, thanks so much to all my readers, and I look forward to hearing from you all soon. Back to the Black, Mal

Hello everyone! I”m back, Chapter 19 is up. I finished chapter it in record time, just over eleven days. This is a big chapter, hearkening the return of our star, Alex. Yes, the master of the harem is back, and back with a vengeance! But furthermore, there is a big surprise waiting for you guys at the end. I hope you all like it. As always, if you love, or hate my story, please stop by my thread in the Het/Fem section of the Celebrity subdomain. Please stop by and let me know what you think.

Hey guys, I’m Batman contacted me via email today to discuss his theories on what may happen over the course of the next few chapters, and it got me thinking that perhaps some of you would like a chance to chat with me directly, and discuss your own thoughts and ideas for upcoming events. If this is something that interests anyone, please contact me via email in the next few days, and we can set up a time to meet on this forums chatbox. The chatbox acts like a sort of instant messenger for the forum. We could meet there, and discuss anything you’d like. Of course, I won’t be giving away anything, but I’d love to hear all of your ideas, as I think they can be a wonderful source of inspiration. Plus, it would give me a lot of insight into what you all might like to see happen in the future. Chat Night: Anyone interested in chatting with me directly, please email me by May 21, and I’ll contact you directly with a date and time we can meet and discuss. If there is a lot of interest, I might schedule two nights, and if only one or two of you would like to talk, I can still make myself available. To email me, just click on the portrait of my avatar, Captain Malcolm Reynolds, that will take you to my author profile, from there, my email is posted, and you can contact me. Just as an fyi, I would most likely schedule the chat night for a Sunday evening, hopefully to accommodate the greatest number of people. Please let me know, when you email me, if a Sunday, after say 9pm EST would work for you. I’m Batman: I’ve sent you an email. I would love to sit and chat with you about your theories sometime. Well: I’ve always pictured the ladies providing their own meals. But, it might be interesting to have a harem meal with everyone sitting down to eat at the same time, and maybe one or two of the girls could volunteer to cook. Who knows what will happen in the future . I am curious what your favorite chapter was. Currently, I’d say my favorite chapters were 16, 4 and 10 were some of my favorites. As to the next chapter, as I’ve said above, I’m going to be trying to push myself hard to get 19 done by the end of the month. There are cameras in every bedroom, hallway and room in the complex, including the bathroom, and they all feed into the cctv feed upstairs. Thanks again guys, I mostly popped on to post on the chat night idea. Again, anyone interested in chatting with me, please email me directly, and we’ll see if we can set something up. See you all in the Black, Mal

Hey guys! I just popped on since it looks like a few of you have commented on chapter 18, and I thought I should take some time to respond to your comments. First off, I wanted to let you guys know that I’ve started working on chapter 19. I’m about a page in, and I thought you guys should know that I will be doing a Taylor Swift POV before Alex returns. I obviously won’t divulge what she’s thinking, or what’s going to happen to her during her segment, but I do expect that Alex will finally return in this chapter. And, if everything goes according to my current plan I’ll have chapter 19 done and ready to publish by the end of the month. Keeping my fingers crossed that nothing goes wrong Anyway, on to you guys! Juan: Thanks for the comments, and I’m glad you enjoyed Emma’s unique brand of punishment lol! I guess you’re correct, if Emma ends up getting on with Taylor she’d be the first girl in the harem to sleep with everyone, Alex, of course already did that! As to Bella, she does seem quite proficient, doesn’t she? I agree that a Emma, Bella, Margot match up would be quite hot, but we’ll just have to see if and when that might happen. Lastly, I’m guessing by threesomes, you’re referring to MFF, as opposed to MMF, since 4 and 9 featured the former rather than the later? I can’t say for sure what match-ups and pairings we might see, but I do hope I can fit in a nice MFF scene sometime in the near future. I’m Batman: I’m glad you’re enjoying the new chapter, and I’d love to hear your theory. If you’d like, you can email me. As to the new addition, are you referring to Ariana, or Cara, as I expect Cara will be arriving long before the winner of the fan poll. I’m sorry Alexandra didn’t win, but I will say she is on my list of potential additions. But, I’m sure you’re aware, if you’ve been following the forum, I can’t really say who I’ll add for sure, at least until I make the announcement of their arrival. I have to say, I am looking forward to writing Alex’s reaction to Toy, and I do have a few idea’s for how he might handle it, and the one responsible. With regards to Emma’s thought of escape, I’d say in some ways I’ve answered that question. But I’d also say that as in real life, a person’s thoughts are always in flux, and what she or anyone thinks or feels in one moment doesn’t always apply to the next, and for now I’d say that Emma is pretty content to exist in Alex’s harem. She knows that her life outside the harem would be forever judged simply by the fact that she’d been kidnapped, and in many ways she’d just rather stay than deal with that. Again, I really appreciate the comments and thoughts, and I hope you continue to speak up in this thread. Grim: Thanks for the positive comments, bud. I’m really glad you enjoyed the new chapter. As to the dress up question, I believe this thought has been voiced before, and I do think at some point I will do something like this. I think though that I’ll probably wait till I get a few more girls, and then get them all to dress up. I like the idea of having a Halloween party, but Alex would probably not dictate the costumes for such an event. I think a dress up theme party like that would be better suited to an event like a birthday where the costumes they wear would be more like a gift for him than something they’d choose for themselves. But, who knows, I might just do it cause I’d like to see it too . Finally, I’m also excited for the arrival of Cara, I think she is super hot, and I have some fun plans for her. She should arrive about 5 days after Alex’s return, so maybe by chapter twenty one or twenty two. Depending on how many chapters it takes to sort out how Alex handles everything that has been going on while he’s been gone. Thanks for the comments and continued support everyone. I really do appreciate it all. I’ll continue to be around should anyone else have anything to say, or questions that need to be answered, and I’m going to be pushing myself to meet that end of the month deadline for the chapter. See you in the Black, Mal

Chapter 18 is up. I decided to go ahead and post it even though I didn’t quite get to the point in the story where Alex returns. I hope he’ll return early in chapter 19. I know I keep delaying his return, but I honestly do think it’ll happen next chapter. This chapter ended up ended up being much more about the smut, but there is a crucial plot point, and I think the sex is very hot. As you all should know, I’ve announced the winner of the fan selected addition to the story. The winner was Ariana Grande. I hope to get her into the story soon, but we’ll just have to see how it goes. Alpa: I’m sorry your picks lost, but I hope you’ll come to appreciate the addition of Ariana. As to the voting, the limited number of girls listed above represent round about 60 of the 72 or so total votes cast. I think there were about 32 or ladies who received votes. So I don’t know if that’s a small number of girls. Anyways, I hope your still enjoying the story, and I really hope you continue to be a part of this thread. Your comments are appreciated. Joe: I’m glad you enjoyed voting, and being a part of the story if only in a small way. I do agree that any of the girls listed would have been an amazing addition to the story and am excited about Ariana. I do think her sorted reputation will make for some interesting entertainment, when I bring her in. As to whether or not the new girls end up directly in the punishment room, I’d say no, not necessarily. It will probably be determined mostly by how I want to introduce them. Well: We’ll have to see Sazbi: I can’t say for sure how things will end up, but I do know that I won’t be bringing anyone in, just to automatically turn them into a toy/pet/gimp. How things end up, as the story progresses, who knows… Anyway, thanks again everyone for your continued support, and I hope you enjoy the new chapter. I’m hoping to get 19 done in record time as I’m anxious to get Alex back. I’m hoping for about 2 weeks, but life has a way of stepping on my toes… If you all have questions, I plan to be around to answer as much as possible… See you in the Black, Mal

Back again, just wanted to let you all know that I just posted chapter 18. The chapter picks up just a few minutes after chapter 17 left off. This chapter ended up being more about the smut, but there is a crucial story element contained inside. As always, I love all comments and criticisms. You can leave them in the Het/Fem section of the Celebrity subdomain if you’re interested. Thanks again, Mal

Well, the moment has arrived! The big announcement of the winner of the fan selected addition to Billion Dollar Harem! I’ll get to the exciting news here in a moment. First, I really want to thank everyone who took the time to vote for their favorites. I got so many responses, not just here in the forum, but in the review section of the story itself, as well as multiple emails. It truly humbles me at the response this story has had. When I started this, just over a year ago, I never thought it’d have much of a response. I was mostly writing for my own amusement, and to practice this craft. I hope I can continue with it for a long time coming. Before I get to the vote, I’d like to address the past few comments, and to say with enthusiasm, I’m not abandoning BDH for choya. I think my last post wasn’t very clear in that regard. I was trying to decide whether or not I wanted to continue with my choya story. That I wasn’t entirely happy with some of the choices I made for that story. As for BDH, yeah if I were to start it today, I’d do a few things differently, but all and all I couldn’t be more pleased with how the story has come out. Alpa: First off, bud. I apologize. I just realized this week that I’d been calling you Alpha this whole time, lol. I guess its true, often the brain sees what it wants Anyway, I won’t make that mistake again. As to your comment, I’m not sure calling Ms. Daddario Xander would work, I could call her Xandra I guess. But changing Alex’s name at this point I think would just confuse people. I also toyed with the idea of using her middle name… I still haven’t decided if I’ll include her, but if I do, I’ll probably just use her full name whenever I refer to her by name. Grim: I whole-heartedly agree with you, I absolutely love Alexandra’s eyes, in my opinion, they’re her best feature. And she certainly has some bodacious assets which are in demand and much needed in the harem. Thanks for the praise on the chapter, and I wanted you to know your post made me laugh with your reference to Reavers and all It brought a little light to my day. Guest: Hey man, thanks for checking out my choya story. It is definitely still in need of a lot of work, but the Kylie branch is by far the best and most well developed. I did consider Alex when I started it, but I didn’t really want to tell the same story twice if that makes sense. Plus, I think this is a better format for BDH than the choya format… As to the normal guy idea, I do like it. I’m not even sure I’m going to be doing much with the story, probably just working on it here and there… Oh yea, as to the Bullet Boss dude. The format I chose for the choya story allows for anyone to add a chapter to my story, (subject to approval by me). The Bullet Boss chapter was added by someone else, and I was curious to see where he might go with it. Lastly, I’m not sure yet what other celebs I’m going to add, so I can’t really say for sure whether or not I’ll add a “non white” chick. I can say that I plan to add a curvier chick at the least. Darnell: Thanks so much for the kind words, and as I said above, I have no intention of leaving BDH for choya. I added your votes, thanks for casting em! 484: Thanks for casting your votes. Disney does seem to have an affinity for pumping out hot young babes! I’m a fan off all those chicks myself. Once again, I can’t say for sure yet who all will be included in the end. The one: When I started BDH, I wasn’t really writing it to take snobby Hollywood celebs down a few notches. I wrote it mostly cause I liked the idea of combining some of the hottest up and coming celebs and my kinkiest fantasies. I am really glad you’re enjoying the story, and I’ve counted your vote with all the others. Thanks for participating man! 80085: I hadn’t considered Jessie J, but you’re right, she is super hot. I’ve counted her as a vote and added it to the others. Thanks for taking the time to participate in the thread! Alright, the moment you’ve all been waiting for! hahaha super cheese effect. I don’t know why but I’ve always wanted to say that! Ok, we had about a dozen people cast votes for their favorite celebrities with all and all about a hundred total votes! Pretty amazing in my humble opinion. There were a ton of celebs who each got one vote. I won’t bother with typing out that list it would take too long. With two votes each: Maisie Williams, Elizabeth Olsen, Scarlett Johansson, Kate Upon, Zendaya, Daisy Ridley, Kendall Jenner, Jennifer Lawrence, Alison Brie and Kaley Cuoco With three votes each: Kylie Jenner, Miley Cyrus, Megan Fox, Kat Dennings, and Chloe Bennet With four votes each: Sophie Turner, Alexandra Daddario, and Emilia Clarke The runner up, with five total votes: Selena Gomez And, the winner of the fan selected addition to Billion Dollar Harem, with eight total votes: Ariana Grande! A flurry of last minute votes just cast in this past week kept me from having to break a month long tie between Ariana and Selena. And for the longest time, there was a four way tie going on with two of the ladies who got four votes each. Alexandra Daddario was a late bloomer throughout most of the voting process, she only had a single vote. But some of the late cast votes pushed her to near the top. I’m glad in the end the fans were able to decide the winner. I wouldn’t have felt as good about it if I had to cast a tie breaking vote. With the vote now decided, that brings the total cast up to 7 ladies. I can’t say for sure just when Ariana will be brought in. I imagine it will happen as the story line allows. I’m very busy working on chapter 18. I spent a good bit of today writing, I’m about a third of the way into the chapter, and I’m still hopeful that I’ll be able to release it by mid May. I want to thank everyone who participated in the vote, and I hope you guys are happy with the outcome, I know I am. I’m planning on coming up with something new everyone can vote on really soon. I might give you all a couple of kink options to decide on, or maybe have you all vote on a couple different completed cast lists… I’m not really sure at this point lol… Anyway, I’m off to do some more writing before work tomorrow. Thanks again everyone, Mal

Hey everyone, just popping on for one last post before the end of the month and the big announcement of the winner of the fan selected addition to BDH. I thought I’d take some time to reply to all the amazing comments you guys have posted over the last few days since chapter 17 went up, and to give a quick update. So, first off, I said earlier that I planned to spend a little while working on my choya story. I have since decided that a) BDH is more important to me than working on that other story, and b) after reviewing that story to decide where I wanted to direct my work, I decided that I’m not happy with some of the choices I made with those stories. As a result, I’m not sure whether or not I’m going to be continuing with it… I’ll make that determination at a later time. I fear continuing with it will require a good deal of time and revision in order to transform the story to what I’d want it to be. So, for now at least, I’m just going to have to keep working on BDH, I hope you all don’t mind With that being said, I’ll begin working on BDH chapter 18 in the next few days. I can’t say at this point when it’ll be done, though I”d like to think I can have it ready for release no later than mid May. I expect that Alex will return in this chapter, but possibly not till near the end. Now, on to you guys! I’m Batman: It’s always nice to see a new face. I wanted to thank you for your kind words, and to let you know that while I don’t know if Alexandra Daddario will make it in. I’ve counted her as one of your votes for the fan selected girl. If you’d like to vote for any others, please do so , but know that I will be making an announcement at the end of the month as to who the winner is. I like Alexandra Daddario, I think she’s super hot, the biggest problem with bringing her in is actually her name. Alex is the main character, and having a girl who’s name is so similar makes it difficult to include her. Despite this, she is someone I have seriously considered for the second round of celebrities to enter Alex’s harem. Only time will tell what girls ultimately make the cut. I’m constantly changing my mind and the cast list. No one really has a guarantee to be in until I make the announcement of their inclusion. Sazbi: Let’s see, not much here I can directly answer, as it would be giving away what I have planned lol! Yes, Bella fucked up again, and I can’t wait to detail whats going to happen to her. I also have plans for Taylor in the next chapter, she’s the last POV I haven’t done in Alex’s absence, and we’ll also definitely get one last look at what’s going on with Emma. I feel like there are a lot of interesting things happening, and I hope you all do too. I’m really beginning to get excited about the next few chapters. Joe: I agree, if things always went exactly how you expected I fear this story, even with all its smut, would be terribly boring Many of the things I have planned for the upcoming few chapters has a lot to do with how things haven’t been going according to plan. As to the jealousy thing, I’m really interested to see how things will play out. A lot of time I don’t know exactly where the story will go, more a general idea of what I want to happen. When new additions arrive, and begin to interact with those already there no doubt I see at the least small alliances forming, and depending on how close the members of those alliances are with Alex, it could make things quite interesting. Guest: I really appreciate the kind words, I’m very glad you’re enjoying the chapters. One of the things I will definitely be addressing in the upcoming chapter is Emma’s relationship with all the other girls and how those relationships are effecting her. And of course when Alex returns he will have to deal with everything that has been going on, and that too will be very interesting. I obviously can’t go into detail right now, because I don’t want to give anything away, but I do have some very interesting ideas for how Alex is going to deal with everything. I agree with you about the guards, I don’t have any intention of allowing Alex’s guards to use any of the girls unless its a matter of punishment. I’m sure that Alex has set up amenities for his guards that are more than just money, I don’t know if I’ll ever end up detailing just what they are. I just don’t see much of a reason to detail that. Finally, as to Bella, I can’t really say what will happen. For one thing, I’m not exactly sure how the interaction between Bella and Emma in the punishment room will go. I only have a general idea. But I think a lot of what will come between them will be determined right there. Thanks again for the comments. Well: I’m very glad you enjoyed the new chapter. I appreciate your feeling of sympathy for Bella, I think she has probably suffered the worst so far. I also think it will be quite interesting to see how she ends up dealing with it all. She’s quite resilient however, and I have a feeling she’s going to be just fine. Thanks again everyone for all the wonderful comments. I’ll be popping on again on May 1 to announce the winner of the fan selected celeb. In the meantime, happy reading and if you have any further questions or comment please post them! Back to the Black, Mal

Hey everyone, Chapter 17 is now up! Enjoy! I’m not sure if its as good as chapter 16, but I do think there are some good twists and surprises in there. 17 gets us to day 21, so about four more days till Alex returns. I have one more small part to write, so I expect Alex will arrive about mid way to 2/3s of the way through Chapter 18. I plan to spend my next few writing sessions working on my choya story. For those interested, who don’t follow this thread closely, you can read it at https://chyoa.com/story/Celebrity-Trophy-Hunter.11552 Its a little different, but does feature some super hot celebs, and mostly no repeats from BDH. I do however, plan to get back to BDH before the end of the month, as I really want to progress the story to the point when Alex returns. Also, voting continues. If you haven’t yet voted, please please do so. I will announce the fan selected addition to BDH at the end of April. Right now the race is very tight, I’m excited to see who’s going to win. Sazbi: I love the idea! We’ll just have to wait and see what happens, if and when Margot gets thrown in the punishment room. Juan: Nice speculation, I won’t give away what happens in 17, but I think you’ll be very happy with how it comes out. Well: Ukuza is definitely watching all the hot girl on girl action on his closed circuit tv. Maybe when Alex returns, he’ll think of a way to thank Ukuza for his hard work… we’ll just have to see what happens. Axe: Nice to see a new face! Thanks for the kind words, I really appreciate it. I had always imagined the story beginning, when I started writing it… As in I began writing it in March 2016, so I was kind of picturing it starting then. I think there is even a line in chapter one that says something about a night in March, or something there abouts… As to the ‘real world’ I honestly don’t like including to much of the ‘real world’ in my story, as I’m trying to create a plausible blur between fiction and reality. I’m sure if you’ve been following this thread at all you’ve heard me talk about some thing similar in the past. Obviously, with the arrival of women who have been on the outside these past twenty days, there will be news from the outside. But, I plan to keep it mostly in the realm of news about the kidnappings, and whether or not the authorities have any leads, that kind of thing. I don’t really want to bring in any other news. I have added your votes to my list, thanks for taking the time to add your voice to the story. Alpha: I’m quite sure one of the things we’ll see for certain is Alex’s reaction to what has gone on in his absence, and definitely in response to the creation of Toy. Thanks for continuing to offer your input, I really do appreciate it. One day we just might see that story with Maisie and Sophie, but for right now, I’m focused on BDH and my choya story… Ok gang, I’ve had a long day of writing to try and get this finished today. I want to thank you all again for your continued support, and for all the questions and comments. Please keep it up! If you need me, I’ll be in my bunk, Mal

Hello from the Black! I’m back from playing Mass Effect, and just wanted to let everyone know that Chapter 17 is now up. We pick up where we left off, following the girls as Alex is away. I hope there are some surprises and satisfying twists along the way in this chapter. As always, if you’re enjoying the story, or even if you don’t and want to offer me your comments or criticisms, please do drop by my thread in the Het/Fem section of the Celebrity subdomain and let me know I always appreciate well formed constructive criticism, even if it’s negative. Hope to see you all there, and again, thanks for your support, it means the world to me! Off to misbehave, Mal

Hey everyone, just popping on cause wow five posts since I last checked in! First off, with a little update. I stated in my last post that I had begun writing, but was still giving some time to Mass Effect, and that I hoped I’d be able to release chapter 17 by mid April. Well, I am still writing, and I am still doing a bit of ME, but I also recently had a little bout with real life…. so, suffice it to say, I haven’t gotten much writing or playing done since my last post… I don’t know if I’ll be able to get the chapter out by mid-month, but I’m toying with the idea of making chapters 17 and 18 shorter than my normal chapters and having Alex return mid 19, honestly it will depend on how the writing comes out… However, if I do go with the shorter structure, I should be able to get 17 out at least close to the 15th but we’ll just have to wait and see how it all turns out. Anyway, I wanted to thank you all for your contributions to this thread, and for continuing to read my story. Now, on to you guys! Hey: I got your votes recorded man, thanks for voting. I like that you said Sophie and Maisie are a set, lol. I can’t say what will happen with either one of them, as far as entry into this story are concerned, but I have a serious thing for them as well. I’ve been considering writing a one shot story with the two of them for some time. It would be a F/F with some sisters roleplay, since they’re so close in real life, and they play sisters on GoT, I think the sisters roleplay is a super hot idea. I also like your vote for Kendall, personally I think she is way hotter than Kylie, but I like her body type more. I had plans for writing a story with the two Jenner sisters as well, but that is on the back burner for now. (If only I didn’t have to work for a living, I could just sit here and write smut all day instead!) As to your vote for Kat, and the idea that more curves are needed, I can’t say what will happen. Before I decide on any new additions, I want to see how this vote turns out. Anyway, thanks for voting! Bob: Thanks for speaking up, I’m sorry to hear that the UAE bans super awesome sex story sites like this, keeping you from enjoying finely crafted written smut… I don’t know when your leaving, but you should absolutely cast your vote for who you’d like to see added, before you take off. As to emailing you the story: here is what I was thinking, given that I don’t think you should be deprived fine smut, just because of where you live. If you click on my avatar, (the picture of Captain Malcolm Reynolds, right next to this post), it’ll take you to my author page. My author page has my email address located there, (at least the one I use for smutty captaining). Just drop me a line once a month or so, (I usually release one chapter a month) and I’ll send you the latest chapters. I say email me, cause I don’t want to forget, and I also don’t currently know your email. If I happen to remember, once I get it, I could probably send them to you when I release them, but I can’t make a promise that I’ll remember. Thanks for the question, and I hope you get to keep enjoying the story. Joe: I can’t give you a name, but I’ll give you a hint. The person in the lead is female, and famous . All kidding aside, I don’t want to taint the vote by telling. All I can say, is I’ve gotten quite a few responses both here in this forum, from the review section of the story itself, and even a couple sent directly to my email. The race, is tight though, I would say that at least 3 or 4 of the ladies have a decent shot at winning. Also, I added your vote to the others, thanks for casting it, and if you wanted to add a couple other names, feel free to drop them. Well: I don’t know about a film room. The punishment room, as we saw in the Breaking Taylor Swift chapter can be rigged with cameras, as well as the cameras that are located all around the complex. So, I’m not sure an entire room would be necessary. It might be interesting though to develop one of the girls into either a voyeur or an exhibitionist, and maybe have Alex give them a camera of their own to film various exploits. Guest Guest: You know, I’ve been giving this a lot of thought recently myself. While I do find it very interesting, that any new additions would be the only way the girls would get news from the outside world, I also just personally don’t want to delve into too much detail surrounding the specifics of each kidnapping, or how the families of individual celebrities are dealing with it. Just because, as I said in an earlier post, making this stuff too real when dealing with real people is a slippery slope so to speak. I would say right now, I don’t really know how its going to play out. I can say that I will address it in some fashion. I’ll probably let the writing take me where it does, and just trust that. But, I wouldn’t look to me getting too specific in regards to the families of individual celebrities. Its an interesting observation, I appreciate you bringing it up. I just wanted to say again, I can’t thank you all enough for your contributions to this thread, and for your thoughts and comments, they encourage me to keep writing. I really do appreciate it. Later, Mal

I’m back! Hey everyone, I’m still playing ME Andromeda, but about 4 days ago, I started writing again. I’m already a few pages into chapter 17 of BDH, but I’ve also begun a new story. But, because of the type of story this is, I won’t be able to load it on this site. It is a choose your own adventure story, so if you want to check it out, please do so. It is featured on the choya site, at https://chyoa.com/story/Celebrity-Trophy-Hunter.11552 and is called Celebrity Trophy Hunter. It’s obviously in its beginning stages, and I think its worth checking out, even at this point. But, back to why you guys are all here. Billion Dollar Harem. As I’ve said, I’ve begun writing chapter 17, I’m about three pages into it. I won’t give anything away, but I do plan to do at least a short POV for both Taylor and Bella, who didn’t get a POV in chapter 16. I also hope to advance the timeline enough that Alex can return at least by midway through chapter 18. I’m not quite yet ready to promise a release date, but I’m really hoping for mid-April, as opposed to the end, like I had originally stated. Now, on to you guys! Sazbi: I’ve logged your votes with the others, and I still plan to announce the winner of the fan-selected celebrity at the end of the month.Thank you for your votes, and your questions. Alpha: Likewise, I’ve logged your votes with the others. As to the question of Alex fantasizing about celebrities from the 90’s and the 2000’s, yes I absolutely think he would have. I can imagine a teenage Alex day dreaming about capturing a Shannen Doherty or a Sarah Michelle Gellar. But, Alex didn’t have the power to do it and get away with it back then, and I think even a young Alex would know that he wasn’t ready to pull it off. I don’t think he’d seriously consider taking one of those ladies now, for a few different reasons. For one thing, Alex is a long term thinker, he plans around the long game. I think one of the reasons he would never take anyone older than him is just the simple fact that he would want to get as much ‘mileage’ per say out of them as possible. But, even more than that, is the fact that Alex not only wants beautiful women, he wants famous women.While Shannen and Sarah are famous, I don’t think they’re as famous, at least currently as the women Alex currently owns, nor those he plans to own in the future. Grim: I’ve recorded your votes with the others. As to your question about outside perspectives. I currently have no plans to do either outside celebrity perspectives, like Bella’s sister, nor anything detailing the disappearances of the ladies living in Alex’s harem. The main reason I’m a little hesitant to do so, is because I think making the kidnappings too ‘real,’ it detracts from the fiction I’m trying to create. I guess another way of saying it is I’m creating a fine line between reality and fiction. I want the story to be real enough to be believable, but a fictionalized version of reality that allows for the kidnapping of real people with a certain degree of disbelief. I hope that makes sense . Well: Alex takes good care of his men, but not so well that they get to have his property just because its their birthday. Alex only lets his men have the girls for punishment purposes.That being said, I’m not sure if it’ll come up, but I’m sure Alex would be willing to do something awesome for his men’s birthdays. Hey: I’d love to know what you mean by normal fiction. Do you mean like sci-fi/fantasy? As to erotica, so far, most of my stories have been MDom focused, probably mostly because I find the genre arousing. I do have a second story on this site called Felicity’s Fate. Its a F/F romance staring Felicity Jones and Gal Gadot. Its a very different story than all my others. I’ve also been toying around with a few other idea’s but BDH occupies most of the time I have for writing. Someday, I might work on some genres outside of the Celebrity / MDom categories, but right now, I want to focus on BDH, while occasionally working on my new story on the choya site. As to the idea of covering other plots etc. I won’t do things like that when working with real people, see above for explanation, but if I ever write some stories set in a completely fictional world, or not featuring real people, I would be wiling to go into a lot more grizzly detail. And, in conclusion, Mass Effect Andromeda isn’t that bad. Is it Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic? No, but it seems worth a play though or two, even if it is a tad redundant. Now, Grim, and Hey, I don’t remember seeing you guys on here before, nice to meet you guys. As you may or may not know, I’m currently holding a vote to determine who the fan selected celebrity that will occupy Alex’s harem will be. If either of you are interested in voting, just give me a list of no more than 5 or 6 names of celebrities you’d like to see enter into the harem. I plan to announce the winner at the end of the month, so don’t wait too long. Alright everyone, I guess I’ve rambled on long enough. I got some writing to do. Later, Mal

Greetings everyone! I just wanted to pop on real quick before Mass Effect Andromeda goes live to say thanks again for reading my story, and to remind you all that I won’t be working much if any on the next chapter for at least a couple of weeks. But, I do still plan to try and get chapter 17 out by the end of April. I had originally planned just one chapter without an Alex POV, and then changed it to two. But, given just how short of a time passed in Chapter 16 it may be mid chapter 18 or even chapter 19 before his return. The main thing is that I have several more events planned that I want to happen before he comes back. As long as I can get those things done, he’ll be back afterwards. It’ll really just depend on how long it takes me, chapterwise to get there. So we’ll just have to see. As a reminder, I plan to close voting, and announce the winner of the fan selected addition at the end of April, so if you have not yet voted, please please please do drop a list of 5-6 names here so I can make sure everyone gets a chance to have their voices heard. Sazbi, Juan, and Well: Thank you so much for the kind words and amusing video stating just how much you enjoyed chapter 16. I was really quite proud of this one, and I think, as I said, it has one of, if not the very best sex scene that I have ever written. It means a lot to me to see my hard work appreciated by you and everyone else, so thanks again, you guys rock! One: Great question, it is a minor detail, and one I wondered if anyone else was curious about. The way I picture the entertainment set up is like this. The TV’s are connected to a massive hard drive which contains literally thousands of movies and TV shows. There is no live internet down in the compound. Even the iPad that Emma was just given, isn’t connected to the internet. When Alex told her that she could talk to Ukuza about adding movies and games, that was a subtle way of me suggesting there was no internet down below. So any movies would have to come from Alex’s cloud, and any games would have to be non internet games. Therefore, the girls do not have access to the news, do not get to see stories about their abductions, and especially since the harem is about 9 months behind the real world in time, no idea that Trump is president. I always thought the main reason Alex wouldn’t want the girls to see news stories about themselves is because it would remind them too much of the world above. Seeing interviews with their friends and families would remind them too much that they have something on the outside to return to. Because Alex wants to instill in these women the desire to be in his harem on their own, he wouldn't’ want them to think of the outside world at all. On to your second question. Yes and No. First off, I think celebrities like Emma Watson and Taylor Swift are so famous, that they could literally be recognized almost anywhere, at least potentially. That is the kind of risk that is too big for Alex to take. I mean, I guess he could shuttle them off on a private jet to some uninhabited island that he owns, but there is a small risk even in that. They’d have to stop for refueling, and while minuscule, there are odds of discovery there. More likely though, is Alex rewarding the girls with trips to the mansion. I have already talked about this in previous posts, but I already have a few scenes in mind where various girls are rewarded with trips to the mansion. These visits would be supervised, and certainly limited in how long they were allowed to remain above. But I can promise, especially now that we will begin to have level 4 and 5s that things like that will happen, I just can’t promise how soon we’ll see them. I hope that answers your questions, thanks for asking. Well gang, I probably won’t be around on the forum for a little while, gotta get that Mass Effect in… I will probably poke my head in to see posts, but I doubt I’ll be responding for a couple weeks. If you have questions or comments during that time, please do post them, I promise I’ll look at them and answer them when I get back to things. In the mean time, happy reading and thanks as always for all your support. Off to the Hyperion, Mal

Hello again, everyone. I hope you all are reading and enjoying chapter 16. I must say I am really quite happy and proud of this chapter. But anyway, I noticed there were a couple of questions, and thought I’d take a moment to answer them. Alpha: I’m pretty sure adultfanfiction.org has rules involving real person fiction which states that all celebrities who appear in stories that feature sex must be 18 years of age. In addition to that, I personally would be uncomfortable writing sex scenes featuring any girl too much younger than that anyway. So those things would pretty firmly set the bottom end of the age limit at 18. As you stated, I said in an earlier post that Alex probably wouldn’t bring in any ladies too much older than himself. I haven’t decided exactly how old Alex is, probably mid 30’s, so I would say the upper end of the limit would be 35 or so. I hope that answers your question, thanks for asking. Well: Believe it or not, the answer to your question is actually pretty complicated. I’ve given a lot of thought to how someone as rich as Alex could possibly get away with building what is essentially a prison under a mansion, built into the side of a mountain, deep in the Yukon, without arousing suspension. So, Alex has probably spent the better part of his life pretending to a very paranoid conspiracy theorist who is convinced that nuclear war is immediate, and will destroy the world. This story gave him the ability to live a sheltered life. With the friends of the family, the investors in his company, and the people he went to school with convinced that Alex wants isolation, and protection from nuclear winter none of them would bat an eyelash at his building an extravagant mansion in the middle of nowhere complete with its lavish ‘bomb shelter.’ After all this, here is your answer. Yes, of course, Alex could pick up a woman, or even use his men to grab someone, even a famous someone and get his business on. The problem comes with potentially being discovered, and the implications. Even if Alex used his charm, and picked up a willing woman, especially a celebrity there is always a chance, made riskier if that someone is famous of being discovered by someone who knows who he is. Taking someone against their will outside of the harem, would dramatically increase that chance. The point here is, that the illusion of Alex being a paranoid shut in is what allowed for building the mansion, and the ‘bomb shelter’ that doubles as a celebrity prison possible without drawing unwanted attention. Its what allows Alex to stay away from business commitments and others to run his company without risk of company or suitors dropping by unexpectedly. The one thing that could throw a monkey wrench in what Alex has spent half a life time working on, is normal behavior, charming casual pick up lines, dating a woman. So, yes, Alex could pick up a woman or find someone outside the harem, but its a huge risk to the discovery of his harem. I hope all that makes sense. Thanks again everyone, keep the questions coming and comments coming. Later, Mal

Greetings from The Black! Just thought I’d let everyone here know that chapter 16 is now up. I’m not going to go into my usual pomp and circumstance when I release a chapter, teasing the contents and what not. I just want to say that the F/F scene in this chapter is probably the best sex scene I’ve ever written, and am really hoping to hear what you guys think of it. As I stated above, I’ll be playing ME Andromeda when it comes out, but plan to do some work on Chapter 17 in the intervening days. I’ll be checking the forum over the next couple of days, but after Tuesday, you can expect me to be quiet for at least a few weeks. I hope to get enough of a head start on chapter 17 that I can still release it by the end of April, but we’ll just have to see how things work out. ENTERDISPLAYNAME: nice to see a new face, so to speak . Thanks for your kind words, and the question. I hope this answers it: Suicide? Definitely not. For one thing, there are very few objects dangerous enough for the girls to kill themselves with in the compound. Think of it as being baby-proofed . But more importantly, Suicide/character death, isn’t really a subject I want to explore in this story. This story is more about submission and giving into one’s hidden desires/being broken that sort of thing. Self harm? well I guess that would depend on how you define the term. In many ways we’ve already seen the ladies acting against their best interest simply by allowing themselves to give in to Alex’s desires So, in that way, yes. If you mean cutting or scratching themselves, again I’d say no. Its just not a subject I’m interested in exploring in this story. I can see how given the circumstances the celebs are in how one or more might turn to self-destruction, but I’m just not interested in seeing that play out. I’m much more interested in exploring the mindset behind why and how they give into their captor. Thanks for the question, and if your interested in having a small part in picking a new addition to Alex’s harem, please cast your vote. Just reply with 5 or 6 names of celebs you’d like to see, and I’ll record them. I plan on picking one fan-selected celeb in the near future to join Alex’s harem. Thanks again everyone for the support, and happy reading! Later, Mal

Hello again, everyone. Chapter 16 is up, ahead of schedule! This is my longest chapter yet, and if I do say so myself, one of my best. The F/F scene in this chapter, is nothing short of magnificent, probably the best sex scene I’ve ever written. I really hope everyone enjoys it. Once again, I put a lot of work into this chapter, and would love to hear all your thoughts and criticisms. I’ll be taking a small break after this chapter to play Mass Effect Andromeda, but I still hope to put out chapter 17 by the end of April. So please, if your enjoying the story, or just have a suggestion or whatever, come to my thread in the Het Male/Female section of the Celebrity subdomain. Hope to see you all there, and thanks for the continued support, Mal

Hey everyone! I thought I”d chime in, as I noticed tonight that my story has hit 20000 Dragon Prints. I’m not totally sure how they are calculated, but I know they some how equate to number of times read per chapter or something or there about… Either way, I think its a pretty huge accomplishment, and I never could have dreamed my story would be so well received. Thank you all for helping reach what I consider to be a very huge milestone. Sazbi: Alex will be gone approximately 2 – 2½ chapters. In the story, I have estimated the extent of his trip to take around 10 days, but I’ll probably let the story dictate whether it should be more or less. I still have several things that I want to happen while he is gone, but I also don’t want him gone for too long, as I bill this story as having mostly M/F content, and too many chapters without that could do damage to that status. I’m glad to hear your excited about the upcoming chapter, and for that I have good news! (See below) Alpha: First off, I’m not sure that I”m going to give each girl, the same opportunity to name a new addition that I gave Margot. One of the main reasons I liked the idea of Margot naming Cara is because I knew that Cara had a friendship with both Margot and Taylor, and thought that could be put to use in good storytelling. I have given some thought to perhaps giving one or maybe two of the others an opportunity to naming a new addition, but I’ll just have to see how I feel about that as the time to bring in other new additions approaches. As to the thing with limits, I doubt I’ll explore too many of the more extreme fetishes, I think rape and kidnapping are going far enough for now. Besides that, I don’t really picture Alex as the kind of guy who’s into that sort of thing. I know I’ve played with the edges of some of those themes, but I doubt I’ll do more than that. Finally, I plan to draw the harem’s inhabitants from actresses and singers, as Alex, being a billionaire ‘trophy hunter’ as it were, would only want the biggest, most famous of celebrities. I did consider a few other lesser known stars, athletes mostly, but I ruled them out mostly because I just don’t feel they’re as famous as the actresses and singers that I have and will have brought in. As to Sophie and Maisie, I added them to the votes when you mentioned them before, and I can’t really say anything more than that On to the update: I’ve been writing a lot lately, I’m pretty pumped about this chapter, I think its one of my best! The F/F scene I just wrote is...well its a fucking masterpiece in my humble opinion I really hope you all enjoy it! The chapter is almost done, I plan to finish writing it probably tomorrow. I’ll do some editing afterwards, and I hope to publish it by Friday night. And...since ME Andromeda doesn’t come out till Tuesday, and my desktop is being fitted for new parts, I plan to spend a decent portion of the intervening days working on chapter 17. That being said, I won’t have it finished before the game comes out, so it likely won’t come out till mid April or so, but it does mean that I’ll have an unexpected head start on it when I am ready to get back to writing. Thanks for reading along, and chiming in with all your comments, I really do appreciate all of it. Back to The Black, Mal

Hello again everyone, I know its been several days since my last post. But I assure you I am well, and working. I thought I’d give you guys a little update on my progress and thoughts on this chapter, which I can say as it develops is shaping up to be one of my best, and I think quite different from the others. First: Well: The level 5 will have as much power over the other girls as Alex himself. She will be able to access every room in the compound, including the bedrooms of the other ladies. The only room she won’t be able to access is Alex’s bedroom, and the elevator to the surface. She will have access to all the supply cabinets and ‘toy chests’ (where Alex stores the kinky and not so kinky sex toys). She won’t have access to the cabinets which contain the tasers and shock-collars, except under specific circumstances. As such, she will have the power to send misbehaviors to the punishment room, for discipline as she sees fit. As to the vibrating chair idea, I think its pretty funny, but Alex would never install something like that in the main dorm. The idea of something like that is more fitting for the punishment room, and if someone is in there, there are far worse things he could use. Outside the punishment room, Alex doesn’t torture or torment the girls. They have choices and freewill. So he wouldn’t inflict something like that on them outside of punishment. I hope that makes sense. Thanks for the questions. Second, on to the update: Right now, I feel strongly that I’m on course to release chapter 16 on or before the 21st. However, there are two reasons why I have decided on writing two chapters without Alex instead of one. First, I’m already five full pages into chapter 16 and no significant time has passed. I feel in order to adequately portray his absence, I need more page time without him. Secondly, I have several character development points which I’d like to have happen before his return, and I feel cramming all those events into one chapter will make it feel far to rushed and because of that they will lose their significance. I know this might make some of you guys a little sad as it will mean two chapters with no guy/girl action. It will also mean the delay of Cara’s first scene till more like the end of Chapter 17. However, I hope that those of you who are enjoying the story as much as the smut will appreciate the fun things I have in mind while Alex is away. And for those of you who read this only for the smut, well, I can say I have a few steamy girl/girl scenes in mind. If that’s not your thing, I do hope you’ll read the next couple chapters, at least for the story. Because as I stated above, I really hope to delve into the thoughts of all the harem’s inhabitants by giving each lady at least one POV scene. Anyway, right now my feeling is, based on how the writing is progressing right now, that I will be doing two chapters without an Alex POV, and that Alex will return in chapter 18. I suppose this could change, but if it does, likely it will mean the return of Alex more like midway through chapter 19. All this is still somewhat speculation on my part, as I very much write in a way that lets the story take me where it does. Writing that way is like steering a canoe on a fast moving river. I can steer the boat, but the river still takes me where it goes... My last order of business is to remind anyone reading this, who has not yet cast their votes(s) for whom they’d like to see enter Alex’s harem to please do so soon. I plan to announce the winner probably sometime around the end of April, and I’d love to see a few more votes, and a clear winner. If you’re shy about posting on the forum, you can email me. My address is listed on my profile page, which you can access by clicking on my avatar (Capt’n Mal). This too, can be a way to ask questions of me for those of you who don’t feel comfortable doing so on the forum. I hope everyone is enjoying the new chapter and is looking forward to chapter 16 before the end of the month. Even without Alex, I think things are very interesting. Well, I’ve gone on long enough, and I’ve got some smut to write Talk to you all later, Mal
