“How will it do that?”
“I’m not sure exactly. This isn’t the usual way we find our mates. This is the way for arranged marriages to ensure it’s not a bad match.”
“How can they be sure it’s right?”
“Apparently some go ahead anyway and they keep a record of whether they are happy or not. It has been found to be 90 percent correct. You’ll go with me, right?”
“Ernie let out a loud sigh. “Yes, I’ll go. What about Shandra?”
“She can stay with my parents or at the child care center.”
“Okay.”
They had arrived at Ernie’s house and even though he was sure they would be a perfect match, he wanted to make love to her all night anyway. They all walked up the path, well Shandra actually skipped. Once they made it in the door Shandra ran to her room to play and he pulled Ernie into his arms.
Chapter 8
Yes or No
Ernie was afraid. It seemed like she had finally accepted and completely fallen for a guy just to be set up to lose him. She would make tonight count because it might be all she had when tomorrow was over. Giving herself to his kiss completely, she never wanted him to stop. It was magical touching her to her soul. Her hands slid over his chest as his hands rubbed her back.
“We’d better wait until the little one is asleep.”
“Mm, you’re right.” Ernie reluctantly stepped back. “Why don’t we sit on the couch?”
They did and she leaned against him thinking this felt so right. The next thing she knew he was shaking her awake. “I think it’s time to put Shandra to bed.” His voice was low, deep, and held an erotic promise.
Ernie went into Shandra’s room where she was playing. “Come on Sweetheart. Let’s get your bath taken.”
“Okay. Can I stay up a little while after? I had a long nap.”
“We’ll see.” She took Shandra to the bathtub, turning it on first then helping her undress. By the time bath time was done, Shandra looked like she could sleep. The warm water had calmed her. Dried and dressed in her favorite PJs, she tried to hold back a yawn. “I saw that.”
“It’s not fair, you see everything.”
“That’s what mamas do.”
Once she finished tucking in her Baby, she returned to the living room to find Maxar asleep. She had to wake him because even though he looked peaceful, the couch wasn’t that comfortable. “Wake up, Maxar.”
He bolted into a sitting position looking alert and ready for an attack. “Oh, it’s you.”
“Yes, just me. No skulking criminals.” She chuckled. “Ready for bed?”
“You’ll see how ready I am.” That’s what she wanted. He stood up and she grabbed his hand pulling him along to her bed. They locked the door because they had to.
Ernie stripped tossing clothing everywhere. Tonight might be all they had. Maxar sensed her urgency and undressed too. “Come here.” He demanded and pulled her to him when she complied. “I don’t want to go slow and easy this time.”
“Then don’t. Just take me.”
“Get on your hands and knees.” She climbed on the bed looking over her shoulder to see him head toward her. He pressed his cockhead to her entrance sliding into her slick channel. This was what she’d thought about for hours. Going in all the way, they moaned in unison. Starting at a steady pace, he picked up until he was pounding into her. She moved back to meet him. The slapping sounds echoed around the room combining with their moans.
Maxar slammed into her hard but she loved it. His hand moved between her legs while the other stayed at her hip. His fingers circled her clit as he drilled into her building her need drawing her release closer. When she thought she could stand it no longer, he pulled on her clit forcing her orgasm to rock through her. She screamed his name as she felt him fill her with his hot cum. He growled as he continued to pump into her until nothing was left. They rested briefly before continuing to make love until the early morning hours when worn out, they both fell asleep.
When morning came they got up still sleepy but knowing they had things to do. A quick breakfast of cereal with a cup of coffee, OJ for Shandra, then they were on their way. They dropped Shandra at the child care center then they were off to the temple. Maxar hadn’t seemed to be clear about any of this either. She didn’t like it but she suspected they wouldn’t be allowed to be together if they didn’t complete the ceremony.
They entered the temple and were greeted by Desdr. “Welcome. We were told you were coming. Follow me.”
They did as they were told. He took them to a room with a sunken pool. The water was purple making Ernie think they had colored it. “Pour yourself a drink for while you bath. Once you are done come out front.” The priest left them to do as he had instructed.
Maxar poured their drinks setting them next to the pool before he stripped and walked in to it. She took off her clothes then looked at Maxar naked in the pool. There was no doubt she wanted him now even though they had made love all night.
“Come on Ernie. We need to drink this before we can go.”
She waded in and sat on a bench next to him. He handed her the drink and she sipped it. Maxar downed his in on massive swallow. That made her take a large gulp then another until her cup was empty. “What’s this supposed to, oh my god.”
“What’s wrong?”
She looked at Maxar but what she saw was a large creature. Seven feet or more, broad, and purple. His skin tone reminded her of the purple she had seen as a child at Mardi gras. Her aunt had proudly told her it was named after Mardi gras too. She had always loved that color which wasn’t as dark as Royal purple but deep enough.
“What are you?” She asked touching him but he felt no different than before.
“What do you see?”
“I see a large purple creature. He has sad eyes but a good heart.”
“My people are shifters, Ernie. This is my inner demon. He would never hurt you.”
“You should have told ne before now.” It occurred to her that this was why his dad had wanted this done. Maybe he even intended to protect her because not everyone could accept a beast like Maxar had inside. Sure, she was unhappy with him for not trusting her with the secret, but she loved him too much to throw what they had away over a mistake like that.
“I’m sorry. It’s just that all our lives we are taught to hide that part of ourselves from those who might not understand. It’s a hard habit to break. Forgive me?”
He must have realized she’d never let him go because he pulled her into his arms. Once he kissed her, it was all over but the loving. Pulling her onto his lap he quickly impaled her on his cock. Holding her hips he helped her move up and down. It didn’t take her long to explode around him taking her with him into bliss.
Once they calmed down, they exited the pool, dried off, and redressed. It was time to meet with the priest. Walking down the hall she was nervous and thought he might be too. The priest was right where he’d been when they had entered earlier.
“I see you’ve completed the ceremony. Did you discover anything?” He asked looking at Ernie.
“You could say I found his inner self.”
“What did you think of it?”
“I thought he had a good heart.”
“You two are free to go.”
“Does that mean our mating is approved?” Maxar asked anxiously.
The priest smiled kindly. “Of course.”
Epilogue
Once the mating had been approved, they had gone home and completed it. They had spent the day making love and talking about everything. They were now a couple and they would combine their lives working hard to be fair and patient with each other. Love was already there and it would make everything else easier. Shandra squealed when they told her they were going to wed. It was an Earth custom and Maxar didn’t mind if it made his mate happy. They would be in their house in six weeks or less if he could push things along. He’d never been so happy and he was so glad to be mated with a child.
Stevr was thrilled that he would get his chance at a mate in only two months instead of five. He would be going on the trip to Earth soon to pick up the mates for the hunt but he would stay away from them so he wouldn’t meet his mate prematurely. Why that mattered he wasn’t sure but he would follow the rules so he would have his chance. Life was going to be so good with a mate at his side.

He found his fated one only to lose her. It sounded like a bad joke but it had really happened to him. Even with all his magical abilities, he’d had no luck finding the woman that had captivated him.
She’d woke up after the hottest night of sex she could imagine, all alone. Embarrassed that she’d behaved so impulsively, she ran and just kept running.
When these two get together, the passion ignites. Unfortunately someone out for revenge wants them both to burn, literally.
Frozen Origin
Book 1
Zeus
He is the leader of the gods, no not the Greek gods of ancient times that they are named for, but the god line of genetically manipulated beings said to be so much more than men. They’ve been imprisoned by Origin, the company that created them, all their lives, but now they have a chance to be free.
She leads the team that has come to free them. She and her team always come in first and leave first on every mission, which is a good thing because she is drawn to the gorgeous god. She needs to leave to get on with her life and the career she loves.
She doesn’t want to settle down, he is unwilling to settle for anything less. When they are thrown together fighting Origin and secrets are revealed, will it bring them closer together or place insurmountable obstacles in their path?
Note: graphic sex and is for adult readers only.
Lucille
White Wolf Matriarchs
Book 3
Lucille has seen Grey several times when she visited and lately when she worked at her cousin’s, Cassie’s, house where wounded veterans of the supernatural persuasion stayed while they were rehabilitated. She had to admit the man/wolf grabbed her attention and he stared at her so intently with those soulful eyes of his. He was just too young and too wolf for the two of them to ever make it.
Grey was sure she was his fated mate but she always ran away from him. She wasn’t running now but the problem was they were both caught and in a cage. How had things gone so wrong? She would be sold to be mated or a sex slave to an alpha while he was bound for the illegal fights so well hidden that even while he and his team investigated the illegal slave ring, they’d had no idea this was going on. He’d finally gotten Lucille’s attention just in time to fail her completely.
Look for it in 2016.
