Vince stared at Kigenai’s unmoving body. Red and black light played across her pale skin, and reflected off her golden horn.

“I will capture her spirit,” Kiyoko said, breaking him from his trance. “You must attend to the others.”

His eyes widened and his fists clenched despite himself.

Pola.

“Thank you,” he said.

He turned...

“Pola!” Vince howled.

Red filled his vision. Uncontrollable anger pumped through his veins, overwhelmed every emotion he felt, and seared his nerves.

Something surged through his body and his magic as he watched Kigenai carve through Pola’s body. The blade ripped right through Pola. It even gouged holes several feet deep in the concrete.

A be...

Vince’s flame laser struck Kigenai the same instant indigo arcs of lightning erupted from the mirror and consumed her in a blinding flash.

Pola darted backward, still covered in a mass of wind magic that sped up her movements to an absurd degree. Sweat poured down her face and even soaked into her clothes. She downed a magic-restoring infusion before coughin...

Kigenai swung one arm out to her side, and conjured a familiar and terrifying rod of uncontrolled lightning. Her barrier crackled around her, but wasn’t the impenetrable sphere she typically used.

Vince’s dragon uncoiled and barreled across the parking lot. Fireballs rained down on her. Hell opened up beneath her thanks to a flame column. Neither did anyth...

“Do you know the definition of insanity?” Vince asked the void.

Utter blackness surrounded him. Unlike the previous two times Juliet had pulled him into her abyss, he couldn’t hear anything from the world outside her magic bubble. He attempted to conjure a flame, and it was eaten by the darkness immediately.

Just like before, his barrier sizzled as...

Vince raised his cane at the same time his dragon rammed its head toward the descending Qilin. Lightning met fire as he unleashed every drop of magic he could muster in a split second.

A thunderclap rang in his ears as Kigenai cut through his desperate defense. She collided with the head of his dragon, using her lightning bolt like a spear as she descended fro...

“Do you think Kigenai chose her plan based on the weather forecast?” Vince asked.

Even though his barrier kept the rain off his face, he still covered his eyes with one hand for better vision. The droplets falling down his barrier were annoying. Flashes of lightning and explosions continued to echo from blocks to the south, growing closer and closer each t...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch33

Moving day arrived soon enough. Despite Alessia’s concerns, the upgrades to the house finished on time. Vince tried not to think about how much it must have cost her to get so much done both on short notice and without any delays. Especially as she’d even brought in another team to do an inspection of the work.

They elected to move in on the last Tuesday of February. Even though Nicki and Nina had cleaned out their old apartment of anything of importance, they’d left it full of fu...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch32

Vince set aside the Daji problem for now. She went silent after bringing up the idea of seizing a body, leaving him in the dark as to how she might do that or from whom.

After Wagner strolled off into the garden, Alessia gathered the group around the gazebo. Nina dragged Vince to a chair before he even realized. The concerned glances from the girls suggested they worried about what happened between him and the dragon.

“He didn’t do anything,” Vince said. “But he gave me so...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch31

The bright and welcoming smell of coffee woke Vince on Thursday morning. His eyes fluttered open to see Alessia entering the bedroom with a tray containing two glasses of the delicious brew.

He pulled himself up and his body protested. Most pain rippled from his crotch and hips, but his back, legs, and arms felt used and abused. His memories came roaring back about the same time as the thick, heady scent of sex and sweat struck his nostrils.

“Don’t move too much,” Alessia sa...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch30

Organizing a meetup with everyone involved in Mei’s assassination took longer than Vince thought. Alessia turned out to be the main holdup.

“I’m not hosting an enforcer who tried to assassinate me inside Lionetti Tower,” she told him after they returned from the house viewing. “Especially as you still haven’t finalized the contract with her.”

“Our lawyers are going over it,” he said. “And you can’t deny she’s useful. She put us on to Kreesa, when the horseg...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch29

At a glance, he would assume their roles had been switched. Anzu wore a gorgeous dress suitable for a public event. By contrast, Momo looked like she’d come from a photoshoot.

The two women were twins, but looked so different Vince struggled to see them as sisters unless he looked at their faces. Momo’s short blonde hair contrasted against Anzu’s long, free-flowing locks. Both possessed seven golden tails, amber eyes, and impressive busts.

Momo wore an outfit that looked vag...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch28

Vince took his time finishing his date with Ally, despite Anzu’s message. Nicki flew off after he told her to stick around, and they did another lap around the lake. The tips of Ally’s tails drew patterns in the water as he rowed.

Even after they finished, he and Ally grabbed some soft serve ice cream despite the cold. His heating spell kept them warm while they sat on a bench cuddled together. Her tails wrapped around him even after she finished.

“Thank you,” she said, he...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch27

Further messages pestered him as he rose and prepared coffee in the penthouse kitchen. Alessia’s humming rolled over him from where she sat in the main room. The barest rays of dawn bounced off the harbor, but Vince kept the lights on so he didn’t burn his balls off with boiling water.

Visit today or tomorrow, Anzu messaged. We’ll be home this evening and tomorrow morning. Otherwise it’ll be a pain to arrange something.

Can’t you teleport? he r...

Patreon is Unpaused Briefly

tl;dr: Patreon still has a bug that prevents people from joining (or possibly changing their membership tier) while I'm paused, so I'm unpausing for a few days for anyone who only wants access to the new Mob 5 chapters. There won't be any other content and I'm still going on a big break afterward (especially September, when I'm fucking off entirely).

So, Patreon might still be bugged and won't let people sign up if they've already joined the page. It's Patreon, pausing a...

Request for German Readers

I'm looking into German translations for Mob Sorcery, and I don't speak or read German, so can't vet the quality of any translator (especially in an era of AI translations). I suspect there are a few Germans here, simply based on my Amazon sales data.

If you can read German (at a level decent enough to tell something is incomprehensible) and are willing to beta read a short translated excerpt from Mob Sorcery 1, please leave a comment or message me.

At this point, I just need some...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch26

“My blood?” Vince asked, his eyebrows shooting up.

“It’s the easiest reagent you can provide,” Hamelin explained, utterly unfazed by the horror she’d inspired in the other women. “Semen is technically the most potent and effective, but I’d be stuck giving you a handy for days to get the amount I need. Assuming you’re not taking contraceptives and haven’t gotten the snip. Then it’d be salty-sweet garbage.”

Gaby and Fia slapped themselves in the face, while N...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch25

Vince’s molten beam of searing flame blew through two of the undead. The corpses barely flinched, even as fist-sized holes opened up in their chests. Those behind screeched and barreled forward, crushing against each other in a grotesque and comedic display as they struggled to get through the door.

“Trave,” Fia snapped, firing off a similar flame laser to Vince.

A lance of light blasted through one door, sending the elves charging through it flying backward. Gaby�...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch24

Vince spent the next few days in relative peace and quiet. No vampiric hit squads or corrupt police trying to arrest him.

House hunting continued to take up most of his day, but he wanted to narrow down his selection by the weekend. After a lifetime spent in rundown apartments, any of the houses he’d seen would be perfect. Being picky over the color of the bathroom tiles or the kitchen not having a five-burner gas stove sounded ridiculous.

To him, the dream home was any freestan...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch23

Unlike last week, Alessia kept the debrief short. She called in using her phone from a tiny room while Lucia practically hugged her from behind. Vince initially wondered if Alessia hadn’t meant to use video function, before he realized they were simply inside a cramped room.

Man, he’d have to be damn insecure to worry about Lucia. Especially given the number of times she’d hit on him.

“This needs to be brief,” Alessia said, her voice tinny thanks to the echo of the room ...

Mob Sorcery 5 - Ch22

“When you put it like that, it feels like a kitchen sink was thrown at me,” Vince said. “And should a clan guardian really be responding to something like this?”

The Miura twin placed his hands behind his head and leaned backward. “’Something like this?’ You mean one of the biggest public hits since we took out the former Lionetti patriarch?”

Pola bared her teeth at him, and the twin had the good grace to wince.

“Sorry, didn’t mean to offend.” He bowed ...

The rainbow bands of the octagram seared the ground beneath Vince’s feet. Noxious fumes rose from the asphalt where the spell sank into it. The center of the magic circle barely surrounded his dragon, and the “wings” of the octagram extended a good dozen feet. They rose slowly, like a piece of old construction equipment that should have been replaced by the cheapskate foreman a decade ago.

Magma raced through Vince’s veins ...

“If you help us, you get paid,” the five-tail said to the newcomers.

Silver Teeth nodded. “Hope you have a bonus prepped for when we take his head.”

Another half-dozen ice lances appeared above him, and he sent them hurtling at Vince. A snort of flame disintegrated them before they even reached him.

Silver’s friends weren’t slacking, however. A harpy wearing a metal helmet stretched her wings and summoned a ...

“Out of the way!” a heavily distorted voice shouted inside the café. “We only want Vincent Keys.”

Multiple somethings burst against Kiho’s telekinetic bubble, practically confirming the foxes from earlier had been hitmen.

The restaurant transformed into a cacophony of screams amid the clatter of shoes and the shattering of plates and glasses. Office workers dove beneath tables or rushed to the back while the staff ...
