Latest WIP-Short Story Peek

Hey, Angst Junkies! I’ve been working on a new short story with a bigger emphasis on the erotic than I usually do. Here’s a sneak peak:

Maybe, Perhaps, and Hopefully

She walked each step with precision. Left foot first followed by right directly in the middle of the stair. Pace easy, stride exactly as the one before it. Imperfection could not be allowed to exist. It had to be dissected, analyzed, and catalogued before a suitable solution could be formulated and applied.

Paint By Numbers

Paint by Numbers is a story about love but it is not a love story. Not in the traditional sense. The adoration is circular, familiar patterns repeated in unfamiliar ways. I don’t know how it will end but maybe that’s the point.

Ghosts in My Head

Katherine watched the scenery pass without care for detail. The gray sky reflected the colors inside her, inside Mikhail. Aware as she was of him, she wished she could say the same for the visions forming in her head.

Halo

It started as a game. Harmless on the surface, designed to chase away the ennui of a bored werewolf prince, it required her delicious innocence and vicious instinct.

Trunk—Part I

She had saved him, transformed him to someone of surface worth. Even though, or maybe because he had first thrown her in the back of her own trunk.

Sleeping Sins Excerpt

You have brought me low, my love. I live for your smiles and die with each tear. You look through me, seeing what you wish and not seeing what I’ve become.

You have brought me low, my love. Madness courts me as I lie here waiting for you. My madness can never be greater than yours and for that I am truly beyond all hope.

You have brought me low, my love. You have truly brought me low.

Beautiful Sin: betrayed Excerpt

Once upon a time there was a wolf prince who lived in the most beautiful castle in all the world. Everyone and everything in the land belonged to him and he was happy. Yet no matter how much he had, he wanted more. More riches, more women, more power…more.

More. More. More.

Perfect
