Six Sentence Sunday - The Order of the Dragon - Revelations

Welcome back, Sixers! Thank you so much for your comments and your returns to read my WIP snippets. I truly appreciate your time and responses. Unfortunately, this is going to be my last SSS post for a while. All those WIPs I shared with you earlier now need to be edited and three of them are coming due. This is good news for all of you - you'll be able to read them in their entireties. Thank you all for coming back to my blog and I will continue to visit the authors on the Six Sentence Sunday list. I have my favorites: Zee Monodee, Suzie Quint, Stacey Kennedy, and Lynne Murray.

In this final snippet, Dr. Aliandra has gotten what she wanted from Drake, but she got more than she bargained for.

The pleasure from her orgasm drained away in the face of her revelation and bewildered chagrin happily took its place. She held still, trying to catch her breath and resisting the continued urge to bite the man resting between her legs.

I can’t True-Mate a vampire.

The swipe of Drake’s tongue on her skin made Aliandra jump and he raised his head to look at her, his expression full of satisfaction and health. But it immediately faded as he took in her face.

        “Oh, dear Goddess, I’m sorry, Doctor,” he whispered.

Uh-oh. Too good to be true? Thank you all again for stopping by and I hope to see you around the list. Happy reading! :)

Six Sentence Sunday - The Order of the Dragon - Drake Makes His Move

Welcome back, Sixers! My week has been filled with editing punctuated with moments of furious writing. Got the edits back from Evernight and should have them done this coming week. So excited to get Her Devoted Vampire out in March! Thank you to all of you for coming to read my WIP snippets and for your comments. I really appreciate them. Several other authors participate in Six Sentence Sunday and I always check out Ruthie Knox, Lynne Murray, Zee Monodee, and Karysa Faire.

In this snippet of The Order of the Dragon, Dr. Aliandra Cantora knows Drake MacGregor needs blood, but when he learns she's a dragon, he refuses to feed from her. She taunts him until she gets what she wants.

Drake snarled as he launched himself at Aliandra, slamming into her and pressing her against the medical table. Her inner dragon howled with triumph as he pressed his growing erection between her legs and stapled her hands to the bench behind her.

“If my control wasn’t excellent, Dr. Cantora, I would have sunk my cock into your sweet-scented pussy and my teeth into your neck,” he hissed, his eyes blazing crimson.

“Then do it, Mr. MacGregor.”

He groaned and closed his eyes, but he dropped his lips to her throat once more and licked her, making her shiver. Then his teeth broke her skin and momentary pain exploded into erotic pleasure.

See? Now everyone's much happier...or they will be. ;) Thank you for stopping by and happy reading! :)

Six Sentence Sunday - The Order of the Dragon - Aliandra's Offer

Welcome back, Sixers! So nice to see you and have you return. I really appreciate your comments and the time you take to come read my snippets. I realize I'm one of many, but I appreciate your interest in my stories. Speaking of the many, there is a list of folks on Six Sentence Sunday and I have a few favorites I always visit, too. They are Ruthie Knox, Lynne Murray, Zee Monodee, and Karysa Faire.

In this snippet of The Order of the Dragon, after Drake's initial attack and Aliandra tossed his butt across the room for it, they both calm down enough for her to realize he hasn't fed in a while and she's the nearest donor. So she offers him her blood, but she wants to make sure he'll stop. The first line is from Aliandra.

“A mature sanguivore wouldn’t let himself get in this position of being so weak.”

Drake drew himself up to his full height, bringing them eye to eye with him seated, and his expression smoothed out into regal impassiveness. He looked like a king unimpressed with the pleas of his subjects, but she wasn’t the one begging.

He isn't begging, either.

        “Now is not the time to sit on your high horse, Mr. MacGregor,” she remarked, oddly afraid he’d decline to feed from her. “I’ve taken the Hippocratic Oath and you’re in need of medical attention, even if it’s to prevent starvation.”

Oooh, sounds like she likes gettin' bitten! ;) Thanks for stopping by and have a great week. Happy reading! :)

Six Sentence Sunday - The Order of the Dragon - Aliandra's Response

Welcome back, Sixers, for Six Sentence Sunday. I appreciate the return visitors. Your comments make my day and now that Blogger allows replies, I can actually answer. :) Welcome also to anyone new who has dropped by. Thanks for visiting. Several other authors participate in Six Sentence Sunday and a few of my favorites are Cara Michaels, Ruthie Knox, JoAnn Ross, and Lynne Murray. Also, check out #flashfiction comrade Wakefield Mahon.

In this snippet from WIP The Order of the Dragon, Drake MacGregor has lost control of his vampiric hunger and bitten Dr. Aliandra Cantora. This is from his perspective.

Two things registered to his hunger-fogged brain. The first was the unbelievable richness of her blood, richer than any blood he’d ever tasted. It filled his mouth like the legendary elixir of life and warmed his body from the inside out.

The second thing was a terrible snarl echoing through the room just before Dr. Cantora flung him bodily over the medical bench to crash into the metal shelves filled with lead aprons.

Drake opened his eyes to stare up at the woman towering over him, her eyes blazing with iridescent green fire as she held her neck with one taloned hand.

“What in the name of all that’s holy do you think you’re doing?!”

Hell hath no fury like a dragon bitten... ;) Thank you for stopping by and happy reading. :)

Six Sentence Sunday - The Order of the Dragon - Drake's Fall

Welcome back, Sixers. So great to see you all here again, and thank you for your comments on this WIP snippet. They really make my day. In fact, all the authors who participate in Six Sentence Sunday really appreciate your comments, so I hope you will visit those on this list. I have a few favorites I visit regularly and highly recommend: Cara Michaels, JoAnn Ross, Lynne Murray, and Ruthie Knox.

This year I've participated in #WIP500, five hundred words a day on any WIP, and my Muse has been completely enamored of The Order of the Dragon, a paranormal romance between a vampire and a dragon. Drake MacGregor is the Historian at the Library in Three Lakes, MI, and he's been rather distracted by the local doctor, Aliandra Cantora del Viento. So distracted, he hasn't fed in two days and he's shaky and weak. He falls and breaks his leg, but he blames Aliandra for his weakness and she's the last person he wants to see. Unfortunately, she's the one on call. ;)

“Trying some extra acrobatics, Mr. MacGregor?” Dr. Cantora asked as she crouched beside him.

Her sultry voice hardened him even more and he could barely grunt in acknowledgement of her remark, losing his manners completely. Her spicy scent flooded over him and his canines elongated in his mouth, itching to sink into her delicious flesh.

“May I push your pants up to examine your leg?”

        She could push his pants all the way off and he’d cheer her on, or at least his cock would. But Drake tightened his lips over his fangs and nodded stiffly.

Doesn't he know he shouldn't bite a dragon? Thanks for stopping by and have a great week. See you next Sunday. Happy reading! :)
