Jawk

An MM Sci-Fi Romance with secrets, risk, possession, heady whiskey, male strip shows, and a shower in zero-gee.

Warning: Not for readers of "clean and sweet" romance.
Possible Triggers: cheating

 

Easy mission. All Jawk has to do is seduce Luc, the most powerful man in the empire, and then betray him.

Jawk spies on the enigmatic man, known empire-wide as the Harbinger. Undercover as a waiter in Luc's favorite haunt, Jawk gets a break when Luc seeks to hire him for a one-night ménage with his current lover, Wulf.

Jawk agrees, and things go well until Wulf and Luc fight, and Jawk is dismissed. He must get back in the man's good graces.

When Luc seeks to make Wulf jealous by taking Jawk on a long trip, the means to gather intel is too good to pass up.

But meanwhile, a forbidden dalliance between Wulf and Alitus tests the bonds of trust between immortals and their Chosen humans.

The elicit affair threatens to rupture the eons-old alliance forever, and subject every last immortal to risk...

Tropes include: Age Difference, Cheating, Billionaire, Forbidden Love, Forced Proximity, MM Romance, Genetic Engineering

 

In this scene, Luc and his lover, Wulf, are about to begin a session with Jawk, a Kin male. Kin have pointed catlike ears, slashed pupils, and small fangs. They can smell emotion. The three are alone in a room reserved for sensual play.

Excerpt

"Wulf." Luc folded his arms. "Would you like to kiss Jawk?"

"Yes, Master." He moved a little closer.

The Kin curled his fingers and released his claws, but sheathed them again and glanced at Luc. A light dusting of velvety skinfur gave him a golden glow. In this lighting, he looked like a feline angel about to throw his might over to the devil's side. He reached for Wulf.

"No, Jawk. Do not touch him yet."

A growl rumbled in his chest like an angry purr, but Jawk made fists and lowered his hands.

"Stand still. Allow Wulf to kiss you."

The Kin shut his eyes and swallowed, his breathing raspy.

"Kiss him, Wulf. No tongue yet. Do not touch him anywhere other than his lips."

"Yes, Master." Hands behind him, Wulf leaned up and tilted his head to press his mouth into Jawk's. The Kin's ears went down and out--a sign of surrender.

Luc touched the tip of his fingers to his own lips, imagining Wulf's butterfly-soft kiss. Jawk's groan of desire reflected his own. The Kin flexed his hands the same way Luc did.

"Open your mouth, Jawk. Kiss him, Wulf."

Wulf tilted his head as he leaned up to press his mouth to Jawk's. The Kin groaned, the sound ripe with longing. His quick breaths sounded loud in the open room.

Luc chewed his lip, aching for the feel of Wulf's tongue in his own mouth. Stroking deep, tasting of honey and raw lust. Wulf's mouth locked in passion with his, submitting to his kiss, returning it with feverish desire...

"Stop!"

Wulf jerked back. Both he and Jawk glanced at Luc and then stepped away from each other, heads down.

Luc covered his mouth, had to turn his back until he could gain control. He forced himself to swallow twice, slowing down his reactions, slamming one fist into the other hand in an effort to stay focused. Controlled. Sane.

He shut off the nagging thoughts in his mind and turned back. Taking a seat, he motioned Wulf to the other.

Luc leaned back, letting the Kin stare from one of them to the other. The uncertainty on Jawk's face made a good gauge of his concern over what they'd make him do.

Wulf remained silent, head bowed, hands folded in his lap, a smile playing about his mouth. Luc laced his fingers together.

Time to let Jawk earn his keep.

Alitus

Erotic MM SciFi Romance with forbidden love, voyeurs, an arranged pairing, and a lover whose simple touch addicts.

Warning: Not for readers of "clean and sweet" romance.

Possible Triggers: cheating

 

As a Better, an enhanced human, Alitus is forbidden the comfort of touch—his pheromones are addictive. But how long can he deny his heart?

Ordered by the Empress to find out if the lover of a friend is having an affair, Alitus investigates. As Minister of Imperial Intelligence, Alitus has access to every camera and remote in the empire. Which is a problem, because Wulf's affair is with Alitus.

Isolated and under scrutiny, he keeps his affair with Wulf secret. They say cheaters never win and winners never cheat. But when you're addictive and no one may touch you, sometimes you have to break the rules.

Complicating matters, the empress reveals her immortality, and requires Alitus to prove his loyalty. Her test throws him straight into Wulf's arms, right in front of the empress and Wulf's lover. Hiding what he and Wulf are to each other has taken discipline and denial.

Now, it will take a miracle...

Tropes include: Age Gap, MM Romance, Hurt/Comfort, Genetic Engineering, Secret Society, Happy For Now, Cheating

 

In this scene, after a harrowing day, Wulf meets up with his secret lover.

Excerpt

 

Wulf let himself into the apartment he'd leased to L Givens and double-locked the door. He didn't need to turn on the lights. Although she'd brought in her own furniture, the layout remained the same, and he could find his way around blindfolded. He pulled off his shoes and set them aside to protect the new white carpet. He'd had it installed last week, which was the least he could do, considering he'd been the one who'd ruined it. Who knew body paint could do so much damage?

Emptying his pockets onto an antique table in the foyer, he shrugged out of his jacket, hung it on a chair, and headed for her bedroom. When he opened the door, the heady scent of peaches wafted to him. Candles lit the sumptuous bedroom, illuminating the warm, inviting colors. It was a woman's room, soft, appealing, yet strong.

At the foot of her bed stood a serving cart draped with linen. A silver bucket of ice held an open bottle of his favorite black vodka, and to one side, a single martini glass with a white chocolate truffle inside. Picking up the bottle and glass, Wulf followed a trail of petals from L's ornate iron bed to the open bathroom door.

There, in a tub of bubbles, lounged his blond and beautiful lover.

The sight of Alitus Vivaldi made Wulf's breath catch. Damp and curling, tendrils of Alitus's pale hair clung to his jaw and throat. His face looked innocent, but the ocean-blue gaze was far from it.

Wulf bit hard into his lower lip and fought the carnality threatening to overwhelm him. He almost broke the fragile glass stem. "Hi."

"Hi." With a faint blush, Alitus rested his head against the tub. The bathwater's steam rose around him.

Leaning against the doorjamb, Wulf released a long breath, and stilled himself. "It was so hard tonight, seeing you at the palace and having to pretend you weren't the most important person in the room."

Alitus gave him a lazy smile, and trailed a wet fingertip along the edge of the tub. "Same here."

Wulf

Lust. Power. Forgiveness. Rich dark chocolate, enough champagne to fill a claw-foot tub, tantric sex, and the consummate skill of a master of pleasure.

 

Warning: Contains tantric sex. Not for readers of "clean and sweet" romance.
Possible triggers: Blind character, memories of death of parent

 

Luc is the one man Wulf swore he'd never trust again. Trusting Luc got Wulf's father killed.

So how can the man expect trust? But to survive, it's all or nothing, and the enigmatic Harbinger's legendary power makes him the most feared person in the empire. This man is Wulf's best hope.

If only Luc wasn't so damn dominant and so damn hot...

For the Harbinger, saving Wulf is a simple matter of asserting his will. Luc's ties to the Thieves' Guild grant him access anywhere. He can protect Wulf without difficulty.

Until Luc brings Wulf home for safekeeping, and discovers the real reason for the threats. Protecting Wulf has not only put his and Wulf's lives at risk, it's also risked the life of Luc's teenaged son.

This is beyond protection, now. To the Harbinger, this is personal...

Tropes include: Age Gap, Ancient Conspiracy, Billionaire, Death of Parent, Enemies to Lovers, Genetic Engineering, Hurt/Comfort

 

In this scene, Luc has brought Wulf to the penthouse Luc calls home. The previous night, though there was a definite sexual attraction between them, Luc refused to act on it, unsure how Wulf felt. This is the next morning, in Luc's exercise room.

Excerpt

Luc pushed himself to complete one more set of crunches. He'd done four sets of forty already, and needed one more set in a different position. When finished, he stretched out on the mat and let himself rest.

The slow fans overhead cooled his damp skin--he'd forced himself to sweat. The erotic dream he'd had about Wulf still lingered in his mind despite the torture he'd put his body through this morning.

Curled up in bed, Wulf's head on his shoulder, they watched a game on Imperinet. Neither cared who won; it was the male camaraderie that mattered. Lovers who were friends first. While the crowd cheered, their kisses grew deeper, longer, until Wulf pulled him down on top of him and submitted to—

The pounding drums in the background music changed, and Luc rolled over and got up, heading for the weights.

"Stop thinking about Wulf." He loaded up sixty pounds of free weights and gripped a set in each hand. Today was his day for focusing on his shoulders, back, and forearms. He faced the mirrored wall, adjusted his grip, and lifted.

Wulf chose that moment to enter the workout area, dressed in nothing but hot pink shorts and white gym shoes.

The weights sailed out of Luc's hands and clunked the floor with a thud.

Dancing out of the way as they rolled toward him, Wulf flashed him a smile of perfect white shiny teeth and warm rosy lips. His eyes sparkled with merriment. He put one foot on the closest weight and stopped it.

"Sorry, Luc. Guess I startled you."

"Startled me?" Luc chased down the other weight. "I almost threw these things through the wall."

Luc bent over to pick up the weight near Wulf's foot, and had the treat of rising to see the entire length of Wulf's muscled leg. For a man with dark hair, Wulf's leg hair was more like golden fuzz. What would all that soft hair feel like beneath his hands? Against his mouth? In contrast, Wulf's ripped abs and tanned chest were smooth. Did he shave? Did he shave anything else? Luc finally reached the top of Wulf's body and his gorgeous, clean-shaven face.

The man was grinning; obviously aware Luc had taken his time feasting on his half-bared body.

Forever Love

Izzorah has always been a Kin, part of a human-like race of fierce, rugged felines. Now he's a brand-new immortal too. When he learns the truth about his fiancé's immortality—and his own—the familiar world he knew vanishes. He must undergo a hunt designed by the immortal king. Fail and he's cast out, away from the man he loves. As if that's not bad enough, Luc is also the king's ex, and the king refuses to part with anything—or anyone—he once possessed.

Luc served the king with his whole heart, until the man destroyed an entire world. Allow this monster near his precious Izzorah? Not in a million lifetimes. But if they run, Luc must abandon the mortals he loves and protects. The king has summoned immortals from around the galaxy to hunt Luc's beloved. The only way out is through, so Luc must teach Izzorah every dirty trick he knows. Izzorah must win.

Fair? Never. But accept the challenge they must—and pass it— because for their love, even immortality won't be long enough...

Includes bonus short story LEAVING TARTH (link inside the book)

Get ready. If you've ever enjoyed a role-playing game, then roll for initiative, because this MM Romance LitRPG story is for you. And if you've never played, grab some dice and come along for the ride.

Forever Love is a sweetly sensual sci-fi romance with a cuddly cinnamon roll hero who purrs.

Tropes include: Age Gap, Cultural Differences, Gamer, Famous/Not Famous, Interracial Relationship

Excerpt

The young hero is a newly made immortal named Izzorah, who's 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... Luc and Izzorah 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."

Excerpt

Luc and Izzorah sit side by side, with Izzorah leaning against Luc's chest while Luc confesses his failures with a previous lover. Izzorah is not only listening, he's also using his gift of kahlah to interpret the scents related to Luc's emotions, because he wants to understand.

---

"You didn't know what to do when he left, did you?" Izzorah played with one of Luc's buttons. "Should you forget him? Try to win him back?"

"I tried making him jealous by having an affair with a Kin male named Jawk." A tinge of lavender and bitter nutmeg sparked, showing Luc's regret. "What a pointless attempt that was. I doubt anything I did would have kept Wulf from leaving. He was already in love and we were finished." Luc faced Izzorah. "Pardon me for rambling. I shouldn't have burdened you with that."

"No, you needed to tell it. You're glad it's over, but it still hurt."

"It did. I tried telling myself it wasn't happening. That I didn't love him anyway, but--" Luc stopped. "I did. Wulf and I lived in the same house but led separate lives. It was pitiful, the way things ended. No final conflict. No big blowup. More like air leaking from a balloon. I let him go. Gave him my blessing. Then moped because I was alone. I was pathetic."

"No. You'd never be that. Breakups are a kind of death. The loss aches. Slowness doesn't make it less painful."

"True." Luc's focus made Izzorah's mouth go dry. But then the man smiled, and it warmed Izzorah's soul. Luc leaned his head against the wall. "You have incredible insight. And you're right about the pain. With you, I'm at peace. Last thing I need is to fall in love with another heartbreaker. I'm hoping you don't turn out to be that, because it's too late."

The truth was in Luc's scent, a faint smell of sweet grass, along with fresh linen, showing respect. The mixture meant what Luc felt surprised him.

"I don't understand." Izzorah understood all right, but Luc needed to admit it to himself. That was in his scent too. And Izzorah wanted to hear the words. "Too late for what?"

"Too late for me to turn back. I've already fallen for you."

Izzorah scooted closer to Luc. "I promise."

Luc shifted a bit, allowing Izzorah to fit against him. "Tell me what you mean by that." He looked down.

Holding Luc's dark gaze, Izzorah smiled. "That I'll be what you need."

"Will you, now?" Patience and amusement eddied through Luc's scent in an appealing mixture. With one hand, Luc stroked Izzorah's hair and then he coiled a strand around one finger. "Suppose you tell me what you think that is."

Izzorah curled up against Luc's chest and wrapped one arm over Luc's waist. "A shelter for your heart."

Pietas is on his own fretting over whether Cyken will like what he sees, and depending on his android bodyguard/servant to fill him in. In the recording below, voice actor Zachary Johnson captured the angst and arrogance of Pietas beautifully. Note: Zach is reading a slightly different pre-edited version.

Excerpt

Pietas should have left his hair down instead of having it tied back. He reached up, but stopped short. He couldn't lift his arms far enough to remove the elastic tie without aggravating his old injury. Pushing beyond the normal ache left him in pain for days.

He could ask for assistance, but what kind of king was so indecisive he couldn't decide how to wear his hair?

As Cyken was so fond of saying, "Not happening, Pietas." Up it stayed.

Besides, to Cyken, outward appearances meant nothing.

Then why change clothes three times? This was ridiculous. Pietas lived in uniform. He ought to have worn that.

Made this meeting more formal. King and subject.

But no, Pietas had opted for casual. Relaxed and inviting.

"Stand there and don't move. Be patient for once in your life. Stop fussing. You look fine. You will not look in the mirror. You will stop worrying. Hold your head up, keep your shoulders back and ignore the pain. You can do this. You will do this."

The silence dragged on his nerves.

Oh, what was the use? Cyken would still find him lacking.

Where was the man? Why wasn't he here yet?

The entrance opened, but it was only Uurah.

"Where is he?"

The android bowed. "His ship is docking."

Pietas did a slow pivot. "Presentable?"

"On the viewscreen, he appeared to be wearing a suit, my lord. Quite presentable."

Tightening his jaws, Pietas showed him a toothless smile. "Thank you ever so much. Now, how do I look?"
