Sexy Snippet Tuesday: Caressed by the Edge of Darkness

         

~She squared her shoulders and notched her chin up. Regal, stunning, her violet eyes flashed with defiance, challenge. “Was the lowly human to ask for you permission to leave?” She pulled her hair to the side revealing the graceful column of her neck. “Should I play the meek mortal? Let you tap my vein.” Her sensual mouth curled in taunting smile. “My blood, I know you want it, leech.”

Tempting lips. Sexy voice. Bitchy words. Goddamn, he wanted her. “I thought we’d already established, if I wanted your blood I could just take it.” His eyes narrowed. “No. There here is something else I want from you right now.”

He advanced. She didn’t back away. Oh, he loved her spirit. Reveled in it. Vampires shrank from him, but not his mortal. He doubted Jordan could even spell retreat.

She moistened her lips, her tiny teeth catching the dip of her bottom lip. He groaned. He’d nibble and lick that bow for her. As if she could read his thoughts, Jordan responded to him. Pink tinted her high cheekbones her breathes grew heavy and the scent of jasmine intensified.

With unfathomable speed, he lunged. Before she could react, he had her hair wrapped around his first. Their bodies slammed together. Soft curves to unyielding muscle.

He had her pinned against the back of the chaise. They both knew with one swift movement he could have her beneath him.

Gabriel tightened his hold on her hair as he drew his other hand up her body. His gloved fingers skimmed the outside of her thigh, gently brushed over the arch of her hip, caressed her side, lightly tickled her ribcage and stopped. His hand hovered just above her breast.

One heartbeat. Two.

 Jordan pressed forward, her luscious breast fit his palm perfectly. They both groaned and shuddered from the contact.

“You make me crazed,” Gabriel grated. Tilting his head down, her rubbed his face against her hair, inhaling deep.  “I’ve wanted…” He pressed a kiss to the curve of her neck then to her tip of her ear.

She shivered in his arms. He could sense her need, her desire. It matched his own. Strong. Relentless.

He kneaded her breast, her nipple stiffen beneath her shirt. The pearl abraded his palm, taunting him. Gabriel wanted to taste it, to pull it between his lips. Would she like it if he used his teeth…his fangs?

His cock pulsed. He pressed the hard length against her belly. A shocked, delighted gasp seized in her throat. Jordan’s voice trembled as she whispered his name.

Their gaze locked.

She aches for me just as I ache for her. He should stop this. Never had a woman enthralled him so…Never had he craved like this. Mindless.

The mortal, magic-less, powerless, she’d done this to him.

Gabriel released her breast to grip the swell of her hip. He ground his sex against her.

She’d pay. He’d teach her why no one dared tempt a beast.

His vision shifted, his fangs elongated. Yes, he’d show her and he’d take what he wanted.

Pulling her hair, he yanked her head back, exposing her throat. He lean forward and inhaled her scent again, his lungs filled with jasmine and woman. His lips brushed over her pulse, “Beautiful.” He racked his fangs over her pulse then soothed the reddened flesh with his tongue.

Tiny sighs escaped her lips with every kiss he pressed against her neck, her jaw, her cheek.

“Look at me,” he demanded.

She opened her heavy lidded eyes to peer up at him from beneath thick, dark lashes. Her violet gaze glowed with need, her luscious lips parted as her breaths panted, silently begging for him.

When only a whisper separated their lips, he snarled, “I’ve waited.”~

Man Candy Monday

Hi everyone!
Hope you all had a great weekend. 
I did nothing but chill and shop for this birthday weekend. Massage, mani/pedi, Barnes & Noble, Best Buy (computer shopping - didn't get one though. I need to do some more research, but they were really pretty to look at.), and desk shopping for my new home office (scored a nice desk at Goodwill).
 Successful weekend! Now, back to work and some Man Candy.

Caressed by the Edge of Darkness

~Music floated through the air, gentle as a caress. Every powerful note, heartfelt and striking. Entranced Jordan followed the sound up the stairs to the third level. Shadows dominated the hall, but toward the end a large set of double doors were cracked open, allowing faint light to slice through the darkness. The music called to her like a mystical force, Jordan was helpless but to obey. She paused just before the threshold and she peeked inside.

Moonlight cascaded through the ceiling and mixed with colorful, twinkling lights of the city below. A polished, black piano shimmered from the reflection of the stars and dominated the center of the room. There, Gabriel sat. Silhouetted, he played. His gloved fingers moving across the keys with such care and erotic grace, Jordan stifled a longing moan as shivers raked up and down her spine. To feel his fingers caress and stroke her in such away…

“Will you join me, Ms. Culver?”

Caught. Her cheeks heated from embarrassment while every inch of her body began to tingle. Knock it off. I’m not interested in him in that way anymore. He’s a vampire. I don’t want a vampire. I can’t.

Fake it till you make it, right? Well, she’d lie to herself a million times if that’s what it took for her to finally believe it. She had to squash she attraction to Gabriel. It was the only way she could move on without looking back and without regrets.

Armed with denial, Jordan entered the room. Apart from the piano, only a dark brown leather chaise and a gold platted bar cart, the room was empty.

“Did you write this?” she asked, noting the lack of sheet music.

Gabriel slowly nodded, his head gently bobbing along with the tune.

“It’s lovely,” she whispered, once again swept away by the beautiful melody.

“It sounds like you.”

His words had been low and soft, but they echoed through her. Had he written this song for her?

Gabriel’s lips pulled up into a half smile before he slammed the piano closed. The hard, abrupt boom rattled her bones and she collapsed on to the chaise.

“Would you like a drink?” he asked. In flickered of movement he stood beside the bar cart.~

Teaser Tuesday

Caressed by the Edge of Darkness 
(Rulers of Darkness #5)



~Gabriel had hoped to spare Jordan, to shield her from the demon that lurked in his soul. Had he thought if she never discovered the darkness he possessed that she’d—He did not want her love. He did not want her to have any tender feelings for him, just as he didn’t want her to unearth those long buried emotions within him.
But after his merciless display, would she fear him?
He wouldn’t be able to tolerate her fear. He’d rather she hate him. Hate he could handle. Hate he understood. Hate was more a part of him than his soul.
If she wanted to lump him in with the other vampires she’d known, then so be it. He’d thought she might view him differently and for a handful of blissful moments, she had. She’d seen him as her savior, a man to be respected and desired.
Nothing good ever lasts.
He didn’t regret slaying the guard and wouldn’t apologize for his cold behavior. Grudgingly, he admitted he could’ve handled the situation better. He’d beheaded the vampire, threatened Jordan then snapped at Gannon to escort the human to her quarters and stormed from the room. I’m sorry wasn’t a phrase he was accustom to and rarely did he deserve forgiveness. But if an apology would help alleviate her anxiety he’d do it.
Gabriel dropped his gaze to the glass of Silver Moon in his hand. Just months ago he would’ve laughed until tears pricked his eyes at the thought of begging pardon from anyone. Jack Frost himself would’ve had to rise from Hell before he’d ever consider apologizing to a mortal. He’d changed. He didn’t know exactly when or how, but he knew why. Jordan.~
