She didn’t say anything back. Despite the heartrending declaration he’d just made.

He wanted to ask. More than he’d ever wanted anything. But the light trailing of her tongue along the gold length of his neck up to his ear had him purring as he tipped his head to offer her more.

He heard the swish of soft fabric and guessed that she was shedding that silky lavender gown that had framed the curves on her small frame like a second skin.

He heard a second hush of it. Guessing those were sleeves one and two.

She wiggled slightly and when she leaned over him, the graze of those breasts, was pure feminine skin along his flesh.

He groaned in delightful misery. His fingers curling into the bedding.

“Woman!” He objected into his pillow.

“Stay.” She gave a light shove at the back of his head. She moved gold blonde hair off his neck. Letting the waves sit alongside his shoulder. Before she began kissing down the back of his neck in a way

    No. It was the answer she hadn’t given. She hadn’t said anything. She’d locked her lips and continued the lovemaking until bringing him to a violent end. A burning climax that made his sac feel like it exploded with sensation as the tingling rolled up the base of him and poured sweet relief into her. She’d showered soft kisses along his face and near his ear. Putting a kiss so hard against his cheek, that he felt the burn of what he was sure, was hot tears. Though she kept her face down enough he couldn’t see. When he tried to lift her chin, she ducked his hand. Working herself more ferociously over him until bringing him to that fine finish that was always followed by a rush of exhaustion that sent him melting into the sheets. Her coaxing touch and gentle loving had sent him off into the most peaceful Knight’s Sleep he’d had in years. By the time he awoke, he was sure he’d been out for at least two days. It was now evening a

  • The Taming   She's Tempted

    Seeing that lost look had spurred him into returning to that table. She watched his approach apprehensively. Staring up at him. Eyes widening, she slowly chewed. Watching him round the table until he stood across from her. She swallowed hard as he leaned across it. Gold eyes flashing, he closed in on her. “Never...is a very long time, My Lady…After all, you agreed to ally with Your Prince of Air and Darkness.” He lifted his glass to toast her. How am I so different? She blew a relieved breath. What did she think I’d do? Crawl across this table and tip her over? Is she so afraid of me touching her? Kissing her? Only comfortable when she’s the one in control, is she? He’d hoped she’d deny the man was hers.No such luck. To his disappointment, she swept her glass from the table. Sending wine over the fine rug. She stood. Livid with rage. Eyes glinting red and chin tipped in

  • The Taming   It Is

    “You said you’d never be wed again…” Sebastian said to Elsabet. Hoping that just once, she’d give a little ground. “Who was he to you? Did you love him, once?” Tell me. Tell me the truth… Without a word, she dragged dark blue eyes from him and climbed the stairs. From his library, he heard the door slam above. And the subsequent crashing of furniture against the walls. It’s fine she’s conflicted. Understandable that she would be. “You don’t have to be angry that you’re both my lover and my captive. I am honored. I would never shame you, ever judge you. Tease you perhaps, but only to goad you into, perhaps, touching me. But never to hurt you.” She drew a calming breath. Her claws withdrew as she eased. “I’m going, Sebastian.” “You could tell me about him. You could tell me anything.” “I’ve no desire to.” “Let me be close to you.” “I cannot.” “Why?” She sighed. Her shoulders strai

    “You’re right.” Rhyers relented. Feeling a bit ashamed. “You grow impatient with him.” “I grow impatient with his sour demeanor.” “Help him Rhyers.” “Can’t you?” “I…Cannot.” I’m still healing. What Elsabet said crossed his mind. Her chiding him that he should tell all his brethren when he was injured. But he didn’t want them to know that he couldn’t, physically help. I’ll always find a way to help. “What were you thinking just now?” Rhyers queried. Dropping to the blue chair. “About Raese?” Rhyers sighed. “It seems like he’s been on all our minds a lot lately. Do you think he’s still out there?” “I dream of him now and then.” “But do you think he is?” Rhyers asked stubbornly. “It’s been very qui

    The targue snarled before they attacked, which was the saving grace for Sebastian. It helped him know whom to focus on. Know when he needed to duck or twist in order to escape their attacks. The smaller one managed to latch teeth around Sebastian’s paw. Scraping them down it until reaching his claws. Sebastian had heard something that sounded like crushing bone and there was an explosion of pain behind his eyes. The pain was almost blinding. But Sebastian wasn’t done.

  • The Taming   What Really Upsets You

    Sebastian’s low whistle summoned Mandrake. He materialized near the stable door. His black hair streaming in the afternoon breeze. Exposing his long pointy ears. He wore brown clothes today, of uncommonly rough cloth. Which crossed his torso then slung around slim hips. Looking much like Dread Country leaves stitched together. Probably is. Bast grunted. The elven breed didn’t like the cloths that constricted humankind. They preferred the natural covers the forests offered. Or nothing. Elengard was about the only exception to the rule that Sebastian knew of. She preferred her prim and proper clothing. Though still wearing similar materials as them, her clothes offered far more cover. Timus emerged next. Similar in coloring, he strode to the drawbridge quarters and caused the massive construction to lift. Water poured from the underside, in torrents of frothing foam. Closing with an ominous thunk. Timus was charged with

  • The Taming   You Upset Me

    “It’s you. You upset me…Annoy me.” When a long silence passed with him waiting quietly, she added. “You know nothing.” Her hands fisted and eyes burned molten red as she turned back to him. Her hair twined black from the roots, darkening down the tips. Then silver-blonde coursed over it, back and forth as she tried to control her fury and regain composure. “Don’t I?” He lifted a brow as he faced her fully. “You’re exhausted, Little Bird.” “Why would that be?” “You’re tired of emotions you usually keep so carefully in check running chaotic.” She stared at him, crossing her arms. “Am I?” “You’re jealous of women who don’t exist.” He shook his head sadly. “Don’t they?” “No.” He breathed. But the look on her face indicated her skepticism. Without another word she stalked from the room. “Run, Little Bird, run.” He heard her chamber door slam decisively behind her. He lifted his head to stare into the darkened

  • The Taming   Wake for Me

    Elsabet returned to sit on the edge of the bed, next to her pet panther. Her malcontent eased by the presence of her only friend. Sebastian, in the form of Quandary, let his face drop to her knee as she stroked his neck. He tried to comfort her. To pull her back from the pain and the thoughts which seemed to be forever haunting her. No wonder it’s so hard for her to be close to me. Even after all this time. Sebastian thought. Watching her through Quandary’s eyes. Her fingers curled within his coat. Feeling the soft twitch of his fur in response. He was just as soothed by her company as she was by his. Things with her were so much easier in this form. She accepted him, his comfort, his presence, without all the restrictions that held her back from him while he was in human form. She knelt on her bed. Arms tightly wrapping the huge feline and hugging it close. Burying her face in the thick black neck. Drawing his strength as she

  • The Taming   Infinite Tenderness

    Later that night, as Elsabet slept, Sebastian found himself sitting in the library. In his luxurious red chair next to the fire. The one he so often shared with Elsabet.He tilted forward in the seat, then leaned back. Rocking his body since the chair, on its stationary legs, could not.He slowly lulled the tiny being in his arms. Bright gold curls framed her small round face. And little hands flailed sleepily. Looking for something to hold onto.When Elsabet had curled into a ball and murmured that she needed to rest, he’d taken the baby and retreated downstairs. Sensing that Elsabet was grieving the loss of her own freedom. Resenting her own surrender.And the reasons she had to do it.

  • The Taming   Fair Beauty

    Elsabet giggled, then grunted in pain. Holding her abdomen as pain knifed deep into her center.Bast tightened in fear, but before he could question her the pain seemingly subsided. She relaxed and her hands slid away.“He is right though.” Sebastian said quietly, seeing she was alright. His words caused Elsabet to glance back at him. “She is as fair a beauty, as her mother.”Confusion crossed Elsabet’s face. She looked lost, not understanding something.“What is it?”“I’ve never heard people discussing me as though it’s fact that I’m fair to look upon.”“Fair!” Sebastian said incredulously. “You’re far more than fair. As I’ve told you on many an occasion!”Does she jest?Both men looked shocked.“I thought you said that, merely for the sake of being charming.”“Does she not know?” Alazareth blurted, staring at her astounded. Eventually he gave Sebastian a horrified look. “Clearly not.” Seba

  • The Taming   Naming Our Daughter

    Sebastian looked at his twin, Alazareth, to answer his question. “Her name is Sebet. After her beautiful mother.”Sebastian’s gaze returned to Elsabet and he noted her shocked expression. Her stormy blue eyes were huge, awash with emotion.“What?” He queried.“You’d name her after me?”Of course.“I name her after my greatest treasure.” His eyes returned to his new daughter, and he missed the flicker of pain flashing over her face at being referred to as something she would’ve considered property.Alazareth noticed her agony and his gaze slid to his brother who was absorbed in murmuring to the curly haired little girl. Blissfully happy to see her. Alazareth couldn’t bear the thought of stealing his brother’s moment of joy, to point it out to him.Elsabet’s gaze fell to her hands, and her expression was anguish.Sebastian would’ve noticed instantly, any other moment. But this one, all he could see was his new daughter.

  • The Taming   Hold Her

    Sebastian gave Elsabet’s hand a quick squeeze. Leaning over her and pressing a quick kiss to her forehead.We can’t lose our daughter. He tried to push Agatha’s warning aside. But he was afraid. Very afraid.Elsabet screamed in pain.The ground under their feet quaked as she moaned in pain. Stones cracked and corners of moldings fractured and fell away. Bits of stone fell like rain from the outside of the building, past the window slits.“I’m here.” He whispered against her forehead. Leaning over her. As he did, he exuded enough magic to steady WaterRose against her unconscious swells of it.There was suddenly the vivid smell of blood and unknown fluids, an odor that terrified Sebastian in its foreignness.Agatha began shouting excitedly while Mags soothingly coached Elsabet on what to do.Then Agatha made a sudden rapid movement and swept her other hand under the coverlet draped over Elsabet’s knees.There wa

    Once he felt the energy of the stronghold steady, he felt it was safe for him to go upstairs. He needed to stay collected. If the both of them were in chaos, the stronghold could peel itself apart.Bast hurried up the steps and turned into the flat hall. Pulling himself around the banister to rush his pace. He hurried to her chamber, only to come to an abrupt halt at the chamber just before hers.The door was open and inside was Sebastian’s twin brother.Alazareth was sitting in a chair inside the room. His back to the wall so he could hear everything within the next room. Worry was on his face, and he was massaging the back of his jaw. A motion that always indicated severe tension. Alazareth was always composed.This is bad. “What is it?” Bast’s steps slowed.“Something is wrong.” Alazareth’s jaw ticked.Oh, no… Sebastian tensed. His fists working at his sides as he waited. “What?”

  • The Taming   Terrible Fear

    Dread Hideout, Dread CountrySighing, Acharius headed back toward his caves. His huge form should’ve lumbered, but he moved far lighter than he should’ve for his size. His blonde hair hung to his shoulders, a few warrior braids near his face. A fur was slung over his back with a bow and a quiver over that.He lifted the bow over his head just as he reached his chamber but paused when Alazareth’s voice summoned him back out. “Acharius!”The viking’s head whipped in the direction of the opening. Noting it was odd for Alazar to come here.Acharius ducked slightly as he emerged from the lower mouth of the cave. His massive size blocked the darkness beyond him. “Alzareth?”His eyes moved to the identical figure next to him. “Bast?” His voice dropped in concern. “What is it?”“What is it?” Acharius asked.“We need the women.” Alazar responded.“Mags and Aggie?” Acharius looke

    “Elsabet?” Sebastian called, having just arrived back at WaterRose, he was frantic to check on her.To see if she’s alright. If our babe is.“Yes?” She called from upstairs.He followed the sound of her voice up to her chamber. Finding her still abed. “Are you well today? Is there anything you need?”“I’m exhausted.” She sighed wistfully.Drawing near, he saw that her ripe belly seemed to have grown overnight, straining her petite frame.“I feel weak. But better. The pain is less.” She swept hair from her forehead so she could better look at him. Blue eyes lovely.“Come.” She waved him over.He walked to her.She caught his larger hand in hers. Rubbing the back of it with a soft thumb pad.He turned his hand to link his long fingers through her small ones and let her pull him down next to her.She scooted over and he was swallowed by the warmth of where she’d lain. Feeling that rare heat he only pe

  • The Taming   Mutual Understanding

    Elsabet eventually fell asleep.Sebatian was wide awake behind Elsabet. Careful not to bump her wounded back. He suspected that, like him, if she were able to change shape she could go far in the way of healing.But she can’t. Her body wouldn’t let shift while there was an infant in her womb.He stroked her hair.She made small sounds of distress that told him she was either having a nightmare or suffering the throes of her fever.“It’s okay, sweetheart.”“Why weren’t you there?” She whimpered again.She doesn’t believe I was. That made him feel like he’d let her down, even though he had been there. He laid with her for a long while.When he did finally move to go and began sliding his arm from beneath her head, she abruptly caught his forearm and wrist. “Stay.”He did. Because he could deny her so very little.It was hours before he did slip away. He made it to the door that time

  • The Taming   You Weren't There

    “Sebastian. Sebastian…” Elsabet moaned. Throwing her head side to side.“I’m here.” He told her. Crouched next to the bed, holding her hand. His expression was rife with worry as he saw her suffering.She was so strong, seeing her this weak was painful. She was fighting against something she couldn’t see.For both her and my daughter. Sebastian’s throat felt raw, and his face was swollen from the emotions he had while sitting at her side.“Where are you?” She murmured, tossing her head. She was covered in sweat. The fever had taken hold and now wreaked its cruel havoc.“I can’t find you!”“I’m here, sweetheart.” He said brokenly.“Why won’t you come?” She whispered urgently.He realized she was dreaming, perhaps reliving that moment in the grove. Wherever she was, his voice wasn’t reaching he
