If you were a worm… #SciFi #Humor

Ring of the Dragon: Heart of the Immortal King #SciFi #MMRomance

In the book Forever Love, a situation occurs that moves Pietas and Izzorah from enemies to friends. I've been writing a new story -- nothing fully plotted yet -- and this scene presented itself.

If you've read anything with Pietas in it you know he has a wry sense of humor and irony.

Here, the two men just happen to be in the same room, and the unendingly curious Izzorah asks a question. I set this up like a play, but if I use it, I'll be adding action and dialog tags.

Izzorah: Pietas, if you were a worm, what kind of soil would you be in?

Pietas: I'm sorry. If I was a what?

Izzorah: A worm.

Pietas: A worm?

Izzorah: That's what I said.

Pietas: You think of me as a worm?

Izzorah: No, of course not.

Pietas: ...

Izzorah: But what if you were though?

Pietas: ...

Izzorah: ...

Pietas: If I was a what?

“Humans? Equal? Not in my immortal lifetime.” #PietasFans #SciFi #MFRWhooks

"Humans? Equal? Not in my immortal lifetime." #PietasFans #SciFi #MFRWhooks

The Ultra people are winning the war against humans, yet the Council insists on peace talks. All to grant humans a seat on the Council. Humans! No, what's best for humans is oppression, control, and if necessary, elimination. Pietas seethes with rage at the idea of human equality. They might have created Ultras, but the creation has far surpassed the creator.

Equality for humans? Never.

Humans die. Ultras are reborn, no matter how grievous the injury. Therefore, Ultras have no equals.

His people permit him no choice. He must attend insipid peace talks on Enderium Six and what's worse, be polite. To humans.

In this scene, Pietas has been betrayed and trapped, and now they're coercing him to enter a lifepod...

The leaders of his people gathered in sleep around Pietas, sealed inside their curved, steel stasis tubes.

He folded his arms. "Feast your eyes, vultures." He lifted his chin. "You think to imprison me? You think to bring me down like a hunted animal?" He indicated the other life-pods. "I will not cower before you. I will not bow. I will not kneel. I will not serve. I will never submit. Humans were made to be ruled, not by my people, but by me."

The silhouettes above him contrasted with the bright light behind them. One by one, they slipped away, until one remained.

"Fighting us accomplishes nothing." The disembodied voice echoed in the chamber. "Enter the pod, Pietas, or we'll siphon the air. You'll die."

"I'll revive. I've died countless times. I do not fear death. Death fears me."

"So be it. Since you're so set on dying, have it your way. I told you if you didn't cooperate, I would detonate the bombs within the hostages you took aboard your ship. See for yourself."

On the opposite wall, an image of his ship sparkled into life, and a bloom of light filled the screen. A mass of debris shot in all directions.

"Your crew has ceased to exist."

"That image is a farce. You would not dare to destroy the council's flagship, and you will not destroy the council. You are cowards. You lock us away in a barren room and threaten our people. This is why humans do not deserve freedom. You are worthless, miserable liars."

"Believe me, your crew is quite dead. The universe is a safer place for it."

"Untrue. It will never be safe for humans. Especially not for you."

Surrender Love

Alone for centuries, Luc seeks mortal lovers to hold the loneliness at bay, but unlike himself, when they die, they don't come back.

When his latest mortal lover falls in love with another, Luc steps aside. Will he never find his own forever love?

Izzorah, a young Kin male, comes into Luc's life, and the outlook brightens. This catlike alien reads Luc's emotions as if they were written on his face. Instead of fleeing from Luc's pain, Izzorah presses closer, offering solace.

When a life-threatening accident nearly kills Izzorah, the thought of losing him is too much to bear. Luc breaks the highest law among immortals and saves him by a transfusion of blood.

But instead of a simple cure, Luc's blood triggers a latent power, and an ability no one expected. Immortality. Could his precious Izzorah be Luc's forever love?

What Luc wants, Luc gets

But to claim Izzorah's full surrender, Luc must first offer his own...

♥If you'd like a cuddly cinnamon roll hero who purrs, and an alpha male who has met his emotional match, this MM Sci-Fi Romance book bundle is just what you've been looking for. Extra points if you prefer your love scenes with only a hint of steam.

He gave one long, slow lick… #Excerpt PG13 from Surrender Love #MMRomance

Surrender Love: Antonello Brothers: Immortal #SciFi #MMRomance

 

Do you love cheesecake and cherries? So do Luc and Izzorah!

Surrender Love

In this scene, Luc and Izzorah are having their first meal alone since meeting a few days before. Luc is older by millenia, and Izzorah is in his early twenties. Luc wants him, but keeps trying to talk himself out of it, afraid of taking advantage.

But this dinner might change his mind...

Excerpt: the dessert scene from Surrender Love

After dinner, they enjoyed a light wine while they each tore into massive slices of cheesecake topped with a thick sauce of fresh cherries in brandy.

"Oh, stars that was good." Izzorah put down his fork. "If my father hadn't raised me to be polite, I swear I'd lick my plate. That was the best dessert ever. McDoth is an amazing cook."

"That was straight from Batchelor's."

"They make cheesecake?"

"Yes. Yvan's famous for it. That one had all the creaminess I've learned to expect from their kitchen."

"I never thought they'd be famous for food. No wonder everyone wants to go there." Izzorah leaned back in his chair. "I probably ate way too much, but I was hungry."

"Same here. No worry. I'm sure we'll work it off." Luc's plate still held crumbles of crust from the cheesecake, along with a smear of cherries. "You know, since you and I are alone..." On impulse, he lifted the dessert plate and while holding Izzorah's gaze, gave it a long, slow lick.

Izzorah giggled, biting his lip. He picked up his plate as well and gave the plate a quick lick with the tip of his tongue.

Luc stroked his tongue across the plate, taking his time, letting his gaze tell Izzorah how delicious it tasted -- and felt.

Color rose in Izzorah's cheeks. His lashes lowered. He performed a far more thorough lick. He gave Luc a sultry smile and then stroked his tongue along the edge of the plate. The soft wet barbs on his tongue glistened in the light.

Stifling an oath, Luc struggled for composure. The tightness in his throat had nothing to do with the surfeit of sugar.

“You need one more kiss” #Excerpt Forever Love #SciFi #MMRomance #MFRWhooks

"You need one more kiss" #Excerpt Forever Love #SciFi #MMRomance #MFRWhooks

Forever Love

When a cuddly cinnamon roll hero who purrs meets the alpha of all alpha males, how hard will the alpha fall?

Contains purring, cuddling, and a sweet innocent who will do whatever it takes to bring his hero peace...

From the opening of Forever Love

The young hero is a newly made immortal named Izzorah. He's also a Kin, a feline-human race with catlike eyes and ears, fangs, claws, and the ability to purr. He and his soon-to-be spouse, Luc, are standing at the door, saying what I call a never good-bye. You know the type; someone's leaving and you keep trying to let them go but then they say this and you say that... These two do not want to part even for a minute.

 

Luc braced one hand against the open door, body to body with his lover. "You look like you need one more kiss."

"No, kahmay t'hahr, lord of my heart." A purr rumbled in Izzorah's chest, and he tilted his head. The late afternoon sun streamed through the door, lighting his glorious green eyes. His pupils altered, widening like a cat's, until only a rim of emerald remained. He focused on Luc's mouth, then shifted his gaze back up. "I need a lot of kisses."

Cupping a hand beneath Izzorah's chin, Luc leaned in. Lips almost touched lips. "Is that all you need?"

"Do we..." Color bloomed in Izzorah's cheeks. "Is there time?"

"I should have left an hour ago, but with you, I want one kiss after the other." And instead of walking through the door, he captured Izzorah's mouth once more.

His lover arched against him, arms around Luc's neck. When the kiss ended, Izzorah drew back, sliding gentle claws through Luc's hair, then down his chest.

Luc's skin tingled from the erotic touch, the raging heat of his inner beast eager for release. He refused to allow his fiery nature the control it craved. As much as he desired another hour with Izzorah, duty called.

After another quick kiss, Luc stood up straight. "I'd better go before you drag me back inside and make me do more than kiss you."

Izzorah sputtered a laugh. "Oh, make you, did you say? I don't know anyone who can make Luc Saint-Cyr do anything he doesn't want to. I think you want that without me doing a thing."

"That's too right for words." Luc caressed Izzorah's face. "I love you, Rah. And your cute little cat ears."

"You're trying to distract me, calling me a cat. I'm not a..."

Luc stroked one of Izzorah's ears between fingers and thumb.

"...um... I'm... Ooh, yes, like that..." He rubbed against Luc's hand.

Continuing to play with Izzorah's ear, Luc smiled. "Is it working?"

Izzorah arched his back, pushing that ear into Luc's touch. "What?"

With a chuckle, Luc released him. "Distracting you."

"No. I'm not a cat. I'm Kin." Izzorah rubbed his head beneath Luc's chin.

"Rah." Luc pulled back. "You just marked me, didn't you?"

Izzorah looked up at him through dark lashes. "I am yours, lord of my heart, but I want other Kin to know you are mine."

What Luc wanted, Luc got, and what he wanted was Izzorah #SciFi #WriteLGBTQ

What Luc wanted, Luc got, and what he wanted was Izzorah #SciFi #WriteLGBTQ

Out of print for nearly ten years, when Surrender Love re-released, it was with two sequels and three short stories in a series. Surrender Love is 99 cents and serves as an intro to the rest of the books.

In this scene, Luc and Izzorah have finished dinner, and retired to a living area nearby.

 

Luc had lived thousands of years. He was a master in the art of Sempervian Compulsion. He could seduce Izzorah and make him think it was all his idea. Izzorah already had a few drinks in him. He wouldn't even resist.

But what was the point of that? Luc wanted a relationship, not a romp. He wanted Izzorah to yield because he wanted to. No... he wanted Izzorah to be more than a partner. A true equal.

What Luc wanted, Luc got. In business, in war, in life, no one stood in the way. Not once Luc decided to pursue a thing.

But this was his precious Izzorah.

So now, Luc must wait, when what he wanted was to reach out... and take what so rightfully should belong to him.

Izzorah folded his hands before him, head down. Waiting, perhaps, for Luc to make the next move.

Luc took a step toward him, but placed himself beside Izzorah, facing the opposite direction. "You're a wonderful dinner companion."

"Thank you. I hope I didn't bore you with all that talk about home."

"Not at all. I find it...alien, but fascinating."

Izzorah said nothing.

Luc waited. A full minute passed with neither speaking.

Oh, screw this indecision! He should take the Kin to bed and be done with it. Luc knew he was going to. Why should he wait for the inevitable? No point in fighting the obvious. Izzorah wanted him. Luc wanted Izzorah. He should take him. Now.

But Luc's sensible side barred the way. He had promised. The Kin needed to know Luc respected him. Yes, Izzorah had committed himself, but it was still his move.

Luc must do the honorable thing. He shifted his weight, spreading his legs. It did nothing to ease the discomfort his arousal caused. Inner heat rivaled his craven desire for the wet friction of Kin fangs and rough tongue. Luc craved Izzorah's guileless eyes and smile, his artless desire to please. The innocence that personified him.

This young Kin could smell emotion. He had to know Luc burned. Why was he waiting? Or perhaps that was why. Had Luc frightened him with the intensity of his need? Perhaps Izzorah guessed what Luc wanted to do to him, take from him, and would run screaming in the other direction.

Instead, Izzorah took a step back and then set one foot between Luc's, looked up. "You told me when I was ready, to come to you." The emerald cat's eyes had gone wide. His smile faltered. "I'm ready. I know what I want. You."
