Happy Sunday, everyone! And happy first Weekend Writing Warriors/ Sexy Snippets of 2018!
Today, I've decided to share something totally new from my current WIP, book 3 of the Alpha Protectors series. As always, I appreciate all your feedback. In this snippet, Max and his brothers in arms are entering Lust's realm.
I'll be checking your posts throughout the week as I have a stupid work meeting today. Ugh.
Enjoy!

They
walked through the dancing vortex. Max’s insides stretched and contracted, the
tug on his limbs a painful, yet welcome reminder that he was still alive.
The
sensation vanished almost as fast as it appeared. He hit solid ground and
ducked to the side, making room for those coming behind. Soldiers filled the
clearing, their feet leaving prints on the ash-grey ground as they hurried to
find their units. Their weapons clattered while their whispers stroked the air
like a lover’s touch. Withered and twisted trees surrounded them, their
polished frames offering little protection. They were exposed and vulnerable.
Lust and its minions could ambush and annihilate them in seconds.

Reine's Salvation
Alpha Protectors, 1
He’s the kind of man her mother
warned her to steer clear from...
Mystique is happy with her current life, but for years she's struggled on a path of self-destruction. She knows she shouldn't get involved with the brooding hunk at the bar, but how can she stay away when his sorrowful gaze is so compelling?
Reine has lost everything: his wife, his friends, his ability to fight, and his identity as an Alpha Protector. There's nothing left for him except a world of anger and bitterness. At least, that’s what he believes until he meets an intrepid waitress.
The attraction between them is immediate, but while Reine can’t let go of his past, Mystique is not willing to return to hers. With darkness constantly closing in, will they find a way to be together? Or, will Reine's behavior destroy their future?

Seamus's Mate
Alpha Protectors, 2
Kaila is His. His Mate. Forever.
For years, she has ignored her feelings.
Kaila’s mission was supposed to be easy: enter the demon’s lair and save her sister. Then, he came along. For close to twenty years she has been fighting against the mating pull. She has avoided Seamus at all costs, but now they’re both trapped in hell and she has nowhere to run, except, maybe, into his arms.

Dancing vortex, I like it. Special skill set for that trip. Nice snippet.
ReplyDeleteAt first I thought Lust = FUN! But maybe not. :-)
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the snippet, very atmospheric in tone. Minor nit, since you did say it's a WIP? I found all the use of 'they' and 'their' in the snippet a bit...confusing maybe? Just something to look at. But I'm eager for more of the story!
ReplyDeleteThis sounds like a dangerous assignment, taking on "Lust and his minions". Great descriptions.
ReplyDeleteGreat scene! :D
ReplyDeleteGood tension, entering unknown and dangerous territory!
ReplyDelete"Lust and its minions?" What an intriguing hint about the adversary.
ReplyDeleteThis snippet got my curiosity up. Good job. I'm eager to read more.
ReplyDeleteA very intriguing excerpt. I especially like the phrase'...whispers stroked the air like a lover's touch'
ReplyDeleteThey're a well oiled machine, despite the danger. Which makes me sure something's about to go wrong!
ReplyDeleteThe way these fighter's move... you show the passion they feel for fighting, the tension that is as sexual as it is fearful. Nicely played... especially against a foe called the Lust.
