Try a little tenderness…

I’m not here today. Kit and Damon can keep you company. Be quiet. They are having a moment. A dirty one.

Night Blade

“You’ve always been really good at distracting me in the shower,” I teased. I leaned in and flicked my tongue against his lips. “Why don’t you do it again?”

He watched me, dark eyes hooded. “You need to not think, baby girl?”

“Badly.”

 

He didn’t give me the distraction in the shower.

Figures he wouldn’t cooperate and nothing I said or did would change his mind.

He did take the time to stroke me down, head to toe, with some of the soap he knew I liked, although I don’t know how he got his hands on it. I had it made for me and it wasn’t anything you could buy at a store or online.

He washed my hair and tucked me back onto the bench while he dealt with his wet clothes and washed up, his gaze ever watchful…hungry. It was the look that turned my blood into lava and made me wish for crazy, needy things.

Crazy, needy things that he had the damnedest way of understanding.

I was about ready to self-combust by the time he turned off the shower. I went to stand up and he was already there, picking me and carrying me out of the ridiculously lush enclosure, setting me down and drying me off with a towel that was even warmer than the water had been.

“You do realize if you try and do something nice and gentleman-like, I’m going to punch you,” I told him.

He laughed a little.

“You do realize I can still see where something took a bite out of your side, Kit.” He splayed a hand over the wound. It didn’t ache nowhere near bad as it had earlier, although I could still feel the tug of healing flesh deep inside. “And there’s still some swelling here…” He touched gentle fingers to the back of my scalp and I grimaced at pain emanated out, a little starburst radiation.

“I know. They didn’t do a full healing. But I’m not fragile.” I turned around and slid my arms around his neck, leaning against him and pressed my lips to his. “I’m bruised and battered—doesn’t mean I’m broken.”

“No…you’re not. But I think I can take you in the bed instead against the damned wall,” he muttered against my mouth.

Hot little shivers raced through my belly and I smiled as he trailed his lips down my neck, biting me right where it curved into my shoulder. “Oh, I can deal with that, I think.”

He boosted me up and I wrapped my legs around his hips, sighing in pleasure as I felt the heat of him nudging me between my thighs. This…just this. This was what I needed, what I wanted.

I curled around him, my nails digging into skin as he went to lay me down and he shuddered. “Drives me nuts the way you do that.” He nipped my lower lip.

“Do what?” Whatever it was, I needed to know so I could it a lot.

“Do everything.” He trailed a path down my collarbone, caught the tip of my nipple in his mouth and tugged. “Everything you do drives me nuts. Either you make me want to beat my head against a wall, or I want to put you against a wall and do this…”

He slid a hand between us… from NIGHT BLADE, which is now in ebook & print. :)

#dabwaha Ladies and gentlemen… your mission, should you choose to accept it

Author-GameOn-Nominee2013

Your Mission:

Help me win.

The Obstacle:

MELJEAN BROOK… she’s a tough opponent.  The good news… she’s in her writing cave and we can do a sneak attack.

 

(1) Riveted v. (16) Blade Song

The Prize:

More Damon POVs…maybe even an excerpt from BROKEN BLADE.

and just to give you an incentive…an unplanned POV.

This is from in Kit’s office…right before things went to hell. Don’t worry… this isn’t too spoiler-rific.

 

She flipped the lock and I felt that low level burn I’d come to associate with magic.  The wards were up. Good enough.

She turned to face me and I did the one thing I had to do…I gave into the urge and I tore that fucking shirt off her. She smelled of another man and I knew it was from work–I knew her job, knew the kind of shit she had to do, but the smell of another man on her skin had the animal inside me snarling.

And it made me ache.  I wanted to be the one who was there for her, helping her do whatever she needed done and I couldn’t be.

But I could do this.  Could touch her now, could have her with me.  Brushing the shreds of the shirt off her, I reached for her and pulled her against me.  She was pale and soft and she sighed under my hands.

“Baby girl,” I whispered, mindless and desperate.  She shivered against me as I pressed my mouth to the mark on her neck.

She felt small but so incredibly strong, soft but steel ran through her core and she drove me out of my mind.  I lifted her up and braced her against the door at her back. She arched against me and I could feel the heat of her, all wet and sweet and that alone had me ready to come.  She moved again and my dick pulsed.  ”Be still,” I muttered against her mouth. Be still or I’m going to embarrass myself…  The soft, subtle scent of her flooded my head, but there was also something else.  The cloying, dark thread of a male.  Magic.  Fowled. Wrong.  It clung to her, pissed me off.   Tearing the sturdy, solid material of her pants away helped.  Getting her naked help even more.  Feeling her wrapped around my dick would be the best thing yet.

“I don’t ever want you wearing those clothes again.”  Not that it was an issue.  The clothes were trashed.

I watched her eyes, that sharp, cunning green, soft now with want…

Damon (yeah, yeah, I know it looks like Dwayne Johnson)

Damon (yeah, yeah, I know it looks like Dwayne Johnson)

Want more?  I’ll write more!  If you help me advance to the next round of the #dabwaha!  Go!  Vote!  Voting here… open 3.21.2013 at 12:00 pm – 11:59 pm CST.

#DABWAHA!!! You all did it! Thank you! Let’s do it again! Bribe!

So, I promised a bribe for getting me into the tournament.

Author-GameOn-Nominee2013

Which is…I’ll post that in a minute.

Here’s the deal.  If you help me advance, I’ll continue to write more on the POV. And if I might even post some of BROKEN BLADE.

If you help me get to at least the next bracket of the DABWAHA (voting opens in a few days, right now you make your choices), I’ll do at least one of the above, maybe both…and if you’re so inclined and if you help me advance, I might even write a hot and dirty Kit & Damon scene (maybe an in-between books 1 & 2 type of story.

So… you all going to help me out?  I hope so because I have tough competition.  It’s Meljean Brook.  But… nah, you all don’t need to vote for her!  VOTE FOR ME! VOTE FOR BLADE SONG!  VOTE FOR KIT!  SHE NEEDS IT!

Damon POV…as promised…

And… if you haven’t read BLADE SONG… I marked the price down at Smashwords & ARe to $2.00.  I can’t do an auto markdown on the other platforms because I don’t handle the distribution and those pricing changes take longer when you use a distributor, but it’s only $2.99 at BN, Amazon, etc.

For Smashwords, you need a coupon. It’s AV76L.

The book is DRM free with no territory restrictions. :)

If you’ve read NIGHT BLADE already, you can read this now. If you haven’t, read it, then read the bribe.  Trust me, you don’t wanna read it unless you’ve read the book cuz you’ll be confused.  Maybe mad at me.  It makes sense if you’ve read the book.

Really.

So…the bribe…I’ve had the Damon POV for a while, and if I get into the DABWAHA with BLADE SONG, I’ll expand it.  If I do well, I might even write more.

J.C. site

Look for the link that reads DAMON.

Go read it.  Then… if you want it longer… :)  Vote for BLADE SONG please… it’s here.  And you only have a day left.  It’s for the PNR/SF category and the ISBN is 9781617507779.  The author name is J.C. Daniels pen name.  :)

Night Blade release day do-over… party style. With Prizes.

Night Blade

I’ll bring the party favors…books!  Lots of them!

You bring yourself… and …whatever you want. Now that Night Blade is available online at all the retailers now and I can actually celebrate having a book out, let’s do that.

Today. Here. Right now.

Kit Colbana is always biting off more than she can chew. She has a knack for finding trouble. This time, though, trouble finds her. Someone from her past drops a case into her lap that she just can’t refuse…literally.

People on the Council are dying left and right and she’s been requested to investigate the deaths. The number one suspect? Her lover, Damon. If she doesn’t clear his name, he gets a death sentence. Even if she succeeds? They still might try to execute him. Oh, and she’s not allowed to tell him about the case, either.

The stakes are high this time around, higher than they’ve ever been. Kit may be forced to pay the ultimate price to save her lover’s life…a price that could destroy her and everything she loves.

Snippet!

I was finishing my second cup of coffee and a donut so smothered in chocolate there might as well not be any donut when I felt the warm prickle on my skin.

A powerful male, that much I could tell without opening the door.

It also wasn’t Damon.

And I knew my early morning visitor, too.

Sighing, I glanced down at my clothes and made a bypass by my laundry basket to grab a tank top. I tugged it on over the sport bra I usually practiced in and then I made another stop.

The Desert Eagle was sitting right top of the duffle bag, all matte black and pretty. I loaded it with two bullets, though I figured I’d only need one to make my point.

I was at the door before Justin had managed to bang on it even the first time.

He had his fist raised.

Shoving the door open, I stepped back out of his reach and took aim over his shoulder. “Now it’s my turn,” I said flatly, narrowing my eyes as I aimed at the back tire.

“If you pull that trigger, I’m going to paddle your ass.”

“Yeah, yeah.” I narrowed my eyes. “You’ve seen what a Desert Eagle will do, right, Justin? I can put a bullet-hole in a man the size of a soft ball…or bigger.”

“I’ve got wards around my bike,” he snapped.

“And I’ve got magically charged ammo.”

I shifted my gaze to him and smiled. “Iron. Hollow point. Charged by a warrior out of Green House. Wanna see who wins?”

“You’re a bitch. Don’t you have a fucking job to do?”

“Yes.” I went back to staring at his bike.

“That gun is too heavy to hold for long,” he said.

“Wanna bet?”

The Desert Eagle did feel heavy in my hand, but I could hold it. The beauty of not being entirely human…I could do things no human could, no matter how strong they were.

Seconds ticked away. Finally, he spun away with a snarl. “What the fuck, Kit?”

I lowered the gun and smiled. “You ready to come in and talk?”

 

~*~

 

So… what are you bringing to my party?  Appetizers?  Drinks? Holy water to keep the vampires away? Cuz Kit’s vampires aren’t much fun….what else ya got?

I’m going to give away copies of Night Blade to those who maybe were holding off buying it.  How many?  That’s up to you. I’ll give away one copy for every twenty-five comments I get and all I ask is that if you win, you leave a review somewhere… honest opinions only!  If you hate it, that’s fine…if you love it, awesome!  Just post an honest opinion of the book at a site like Amazon, Goodreads or BN.com.  If you blog and want to leave a review on your blog, that’s awesome, too.

All winners are going to be chosen randomly and all winners will get the ebook.  FYI, this is a series and if you haven’t read the first, you’re now warned.  You can’t get the book, read it and say you didn’t know… ;)  I just told you.

Also… I’ll draw one name to get another prize…we’ll just have to see what I can pull out of my bag of tricks… er…off the shelves…um, yeah. It’s a surprise prize!

Disclaimer…you have to check beck to see if you win.  I’ll post the winners by Monday. If you won’t remember, you can always sign up to grab my feed…it’s that little follow box on the corner. Contest is only via my blog, not goodreads or anywhere else the feed gets imported.

 All files are fixed.  If you’re having problems, go here and read the fixes…

**There’s another snafu at Amazon. I’m aware. They are aware. They are trying to fix it. I’m just going to sit here and laugh hysterically because it’s that or break things.
