Beauty in the Beast released on Tuesday! So, I'm just going to share one more little snippet *smile* Last week it seemed like Christopher finally got his way and was able to kiss Morgana... Well, I've moved a few lines down but let's see what she thinks about all this...
I hope you enjoy!

Christopher crossed his
arms over his chest. "Speechless. Nothing to say about good, ethics and
what not? Do you see now what a kiss can do and how intoxicating it can be?"
"Yes, I can see it, but there is something called
self-control, Mr. Bexley. It is something humans and magic users should be more
adept at exercising. Just because something feels good doesn't mean we should
abuse it."
"There is nothing
wrong with abusing a kiss."
"There is when it
makes you feel like this. There is when you steal it and don't take it with
consent."

Light will
become shadow. Love will become hate. Good will become evil. The Darkness is
here. There will be no escape.
Morgana Wiles has spent her life, alongside her mother, fighting against the arrival of the creature known as The Darkness. Unfortunately, neither of them were able to stop him and now he's here, ready to destroy all that is good in the world. Morgana must face him, but now that the time has come, she finds that things are not as simple. Her mother is gone, self-doubt is creeping in, and her visions are unclear. To make matters worse, a man with evil intent has entered her life and is bent on complicating her mission. Will she be able to resist him in time to fight The Darkness or will she succumb and become that which she despises?
Christopher Bexley is no gentleman. He enjoys trickery, deceit, mischief and above all seduction. Sexual intercourse is the greatest source of power there is or at least there was, until he heard about the Gem. Now that he has discovered there's a stone that can make him the most powerful magic user of all time, he must have it. The only problem is that the only other person that might know where it is, is a stickler for rules and being good. Morgana is too innocent for his liking, and there's only one thing he can do to change that: corrupt her.

She is right, too much of a good thing is never a good thing.
