I'm the author of The Administration Series, a near-future SF dystopia published by Casperian Books. You can find the series in paperback, e-book, or (partly) on line at the Mannazone website.
I've been writing original slash since 2002 — or homoerotic fiction, m/m romance, yaoi, as you prefer. Original slash is my personal term of choice because I feel it best represents my writing in terms of style and what readers can expect to find there. Individual stories may or may nor be sexually explicit.
Wait For It is filled to the brim with warm intimacy, adorable tidbits, unbearable anticipation, and a new layer and challenge to the game. Wait. Wait for it… Sounds easy right? Hehe….not with these two!
”because he knew what Toreth wanted without having to ask because he knew him”….
Warrick and Toreth have been “regular fucks” for three years now. They desire, need, and know each other in the bed and out. Know what they need. Know what to take. But some fun details about what they know about each other comes through in this story—Warrick’s clean sheet obsession, favorite foods, how their bodies move through a room, how late Toreth will be and why, favorite toys, and how much pain they can take. So a new kind of torturous challenge is thrown down to play. Something new to add a little mystery to the game. Fun, flirting, and fear create one hell of an erotic experience here.
The wait and sexual tension had me squirming in my seat! Warrick’s Toreth fantasies alone had me panting!
”With vividness that matched the sim, Warrick could picture stripping Toreth, peeling back the layers to reach the smooth, salty skin. He’d steam in the cold air—and complain like hell, of course, but that would be in the real world. In his mind, Warrick could have him however he liked.”
And hell! I know I’m in deep when….
Manna Francis has done it again! Upped the ante and heat to a whole new level!
Favorite Warrick quote:
”It was perfect. There was just you and what you wanted from me. I like it when you hurt me—God, so much—but sometimes it’s even better if I can get there without it.”
Control Just quotes Their Saturday morning routine. *Toreth had spent the evening reading pharmaceutical journals he'd been putting off for weeks, and enjoying the idea of Warrick at a table full of clients.
* Then he looked up and lost track of the plan, distracted by Warrick's dark eyes. Warrick was watching him with a combination of curiosity and hungry excitement that temporarily cleared Toreth's mind of all plans.Finally, he focused on Warrick's parted lips, and that at least prompted movement. He tightened the lid on the oil, then leaned down, took his weight on his elbows and kissed Warrick. Then he kept kissing him until he realised that not only had he forgotten the plan, he'd forgotten to breathe as well. He lifted his head, feeling a little dizzy.
* ...revelling in the heat and Warrick's hands shifting, squeezing just exactly, perfectly right, because he knew what Toreth wanted without having to ask because he knew him, he knew—
* Toreth gave in to the complaints of his neck and rested his forehead on the pillow, turning to breathe against Warrick's neck, drinking in the tang of his hot skin. Usually it turned him on unbearably. In his current haze it stirred different feelings, warming and relaxing him, urging sleep.
* "It was a fuck of a lot more fun with you. Weird, huh?"
* He was humming, which seemed oddly more tuneful than normal. A side-effect of being Marc, perhaps.
* There was something strange happening. Something very, very strange, but somehow he didn't care, or couldn't be bothered to worry, and wasn't it Toreth with him? Everything would be all right.
*Warrick placed his hand firmly in the centre of Toreth's chest and pushed him back against the sofa. Then he kissed him until he felt he'd conveyed sufficient appreciation of the evening's entertainment, and until Toreth's heartbeat had picked up speed under his palm.
* At least this was Toreth's flat, where crumbs on the floor were merely part of the ecology. LOL

RE-READ 2021 Ohh, ahhh, umm...they are so messed up but I so love them! Is this my favorite? Might be...
Feeling breathless here... need a minute... damn that was HOT. They are ridiculously desperate for each other...if only Toreth could kick his bad habit..life would be good.
"Because this was as long as I could stand it." Aww, Toreth.
I don't know whats happening to me... but I'm actually starting to like him. O.O I must be coming down with something, it's the only possible explanation.
Yeah, I knew I would be rewarded for my patience! Comparing to the 4.1 sequel, that was concerning the sex scenes very ascetic, #4.2 provides a fireworks of sexual tension, physical needs and emotional proximity between Toreth and Warrick!
Aside from the fact that this story was, naturally, fucking hot, there was also a pretty big component of adorableness. These two know each other unbelievably well, despite the kind of relationship they have - or maybe because of the kind of relationship they have - and this is one of the stories where you can see that best. They can be so in the game one moment, and tender and playful the next - obviously without ever overstepping the boundaries and becoming anything more than fuck buddies. Right, Toreth? *rolls eyes* *mutters* You blind idiot - and it's just... gorgeous, 'kay?
This gorgeous, intimate, tender love scene in the beginning had me panting…and I could NOT have had a bigger smile on my face. And then…of course…Toreth had to ruin it. Grrr…
“What inspired that, then?” Warrick asked. “Well, I did it with a fuck on, um, Monday night…” Toreth…you ass…
And are we really supposed to believe that Toreth could hold out for SEVEN days? Not likely…
Still, the little game was kinda fun to read and how cute are they when they're just chilling eating pizza and beers...love it...
OH MY, that was about as long as I could stand it too. But in a very good way. I was dying for Warrick's suffering but it was Toreth's admission of suffering in the end that made it all worth it. Lovely.
Needless to say (but I will anyway) this was just scrumptious. The tenderness and loving at the beginning had me grinning like a fool, it was just so damn perfect and romantic and special and ....then Toreth had to go and eff it all up with one bloody sentence! Gah...I could strangle him!
...and then we wait, and the suspense is so palpable I could suffocate! Bravo Manna Francis, you are superb at what you do, just superb!!!
This was a short, where Warrick, without wanting to, challenged Toreth to wait until "he couldnt stand it anymore." And the waiting was for sex. How long he could wait to have Warrick..
And it proved almost unbearable for Warrick, but what an amazing end!!
This was a GREAT one from The Administration. Warrick tells Toreth to wait for as long as he can stand it and it turns out to be a lot longer than Warrick can stand it, but then end has a delightful twist!
Loved this one. First I thought Warrick was sick from the sim experiment. And Toreth was like fuck....thats the end of the game, I'll put him to sleep. Then I realized "Marc" drugged Warrick. haha. *Classic Toreth*
4 'Sweet, and super fucking hot, as always. I really wish Toreth would just shut his fucking mouth sometimes though, he just can't help himself' stars.
"Wait for It" turned out to be a test of endurance for both men! I just loved seeing Warrick squirm and be impatient about seeing Toreth and finding out what other new fascinating idea he comes up with.
And Toreth does not disappoint (well at least in that regard). The whole casual hook-up in a bar, having your drink spiked, ending up at the mercy of a complete stranger, being forced to comply to their every demand... Manna just made that incredibly hot! I was short of breath and fanning myself by the time Warrick woke up in the morning!
And Toreth's closing phrase was the icing on the cake. Love, love, love it! "Because this was as long as I could stand it."

and here i am thinking you're starting to change. Toreth's needs to... punch himself and start realizing what's infront of him. and here i am thinking you're starting to change.
