Thursday Melodies

Good morning! This week is breezing by and already it's Thursday, just another day before the weekend.

On last week's Silver Flash two songs were mentioned (read it here) and that's why today I'm dedicating Thursday's melody to both of them! One, the fun Elton John's and Kiki Dee's song "Don't go breaking my heart" and the other Alice Cooper's sexy "Poison".

Have a great day!

“Tell me, Camilia, if you are not a virgin why do you cower away from me every time I get near you? Why does fear creep into your eyes every time my body nudges yours?”

“I—“

“Tell me.”

“You are imagining things. I feel no fear,” she replied, staring at him defiantly even though adrenaline rushed through her body and turned to liquid heat between her legs.

Silver Flash Wednesday: Untitled Chapter 3

Happy Wednesday everyone! I'm participating in today's Silver Flash and continuing with this untitled work. If you don't remember where we dropped off you can read chapter 1 and 2 here and here. Link

Remember to visit the other fantastic flasher's! (links at the bottom)

Untitled Chapter 3


Damian lowered his head to her face. He was inches away from her lips. Amanda knew she should do something to stop him but she couldn’t. She stood powerless to his masculine appeal. What’s more, she hated to admit it, but she wanted him to kiss her.

His lips were tantalizing and the heat from his body was intoxicating. Her breath hitched. She swallowed hard. This was not a good idea. He was her neighbor, her enemy, the one that didn’t let her read in peace. She put a restraining hand on his chest. He stopped, glancing into her eyes. The heat coming from him was scorching her hand, raising her awareness of what she was doing. She splayed her fingers, reveling on the feel of his smooth skin and the few scarce hairs that dusted his chest. His hand snaked around her waist and he pulled her closer. Amanda looked up at him.

“I don’t think this is a good idea,” she blurted.

Damian raised his eyebrows. She felt his muscles tense underneath her fingers and she wanted to bite back her words, but it was too late. She’d already put her foot in her mouth.

Amanda scratched her nose with the back of her arm and turned away from the window. The last time she had seen Damian had been a long time ago, more than two years ago to be exact. That’s when the real trouble had begun.

Amanda screamed along with her friends as the first chords of one of her favorite songs blasted through the karaoke’s bar speakers. She laughed and used her fist as a pretend microphone as she mouthed the words to Elton John’s and Kiki Dee’s song “Don't go breakin' my heart” which a group of men were badly imitating on stage.

Suddenly her friend, Anne, nudged her on the ribs.

“What?” She lowered her head so she could hear her friend above the noise.

“That hunk in the corner hasn’t stopped staring at you.”

Amanda raised her eyes and quickly lowered them. It couldn’t be. It could.

“Tell me what he looks like,” she said, grabbing her friends arm and turning her back on the boy while dancing with her friend.

“Tall, long dark hair, dressed in black pants and a long sleeve black shirt.”

“Shit.”

“You know him?”

“If it’s who I think he is, then yes.”

“Well, he’s standing up.”

“What?” Amanda turned around sharply. She watched the man walk to the stage. Her innards felt like jelly. She hadn’t seen that boy, no, man, since the summer before last when he’d almost kissed her. A base and guitar mingled in the air, then the sound of drums. Her attention was drawn to the stage. Damian stood center stage. She held to her beer bottle as if it was her only connection to life. Damian had let his hair loose. It wasn’t the messy strands she recalled but a silken curtain that hung halfway down his back. He was fitter than she recalled, seemingly having finally spread out in all the right places.

She realized with a jolt that the voice she was hearing was his. Had it been that deep and husky two years ago? Damian got down from the stage, singing and swaying his hips to the infectious melody of Alice Cooper’s Poison. She had to get out of there.

It was too late. Damian was before her, his blue eyes piercing through her and causing her blood to boil while he sung the lyrics to the song:

I want to love you, but I better not touch (Don't touch)
I want to hold you but my senses tell me to stop
I want to kiss you but I want it too much (Too much)
I want to taste you but your lips are venomous poison”

Before she could conjure something intelligent to say, Damian winked at her and went back on stage for the grand finale.

“Let’s get out of here.”

“What? Are you nuts?” Anne admonished her. “Amanda, you haven’t gotten laid in about a century and that hunk has it hot for you, what—“

“No, let’s go. Now.”

“What is wrong with you?”

“Nothing, it’s just I don’t want to stay here anymore.”

“Don’t you like the guy? Because if you don’t want him I’d love to give him a shot.”

“Anne!”

“Aha! So you do like him!”

“You do?”

A very masculine voice spoke from behind her. Amanda jumped and turned around. Her eyes found Damian and she blushed.

“That’s not what I was saying, Anne was just misinterpreting my words.”

Damian raised his eyebrows in a skeptical expression.

“Yeah, well, I don’t need to explain to you. We’re leaving.” Before she could turn around Damian grasped her wrist.

“Amanda.”

Six Sentence Sunday and The Goddess Fish Party Pavilion!



Happy Sunday everyone! My Six Sentences from today belong to my recently released novel "A Decade of Longing", available at Evernight Publishing.

“Look at me, Angelica,” Alex asked softly. She avoided his eyes. He saw her discomfort, and part of him knew that maybe it was better if he released her; if he forgot about her, just like he should have done long ago. The other part of him refused to give up, knowing what they had once shared was still alive. With tenderness, he released her waist and lifted her chin.

For barely a moment their eyes met.

Interested? Well, I'm blogging all day at the Goddess Fish Party Pavilion! Come for a visit, leave a comment and you could win a copy of "A Decade of Longing". Hope to see you there!ç
