Desires Unleashed
Excerpt:
“Shhhh, quiet.
You’ll die tonight, but you die as the chosen. Fear not, you are lucky to die
by a vampire’s kiss,” he whispered into Anthony’s ear, repeating his most
clichéd vampire quote.
He began
enforcing his silent command-coaxing Anthony to remain calm. Once Xavier felt
the other man’s muscles relax, he leaned closer to the pulsating artery
underneath the smooth, soft skin of Anthony’s neck. Xavier’s mouth opened,
fangs extending for the feeding. Anthony gasped, his back arching as Xavier’s
fangs broke through his skin. Xavier began to feed; audible sucking noises
filled the room, adding to the sexual atmosphere. Low moans were coming from
the two men, both enwrapped in pleasure, sharing this special union. Darian
watched closely. He enjoyed watching the “vampire’s kiss” in motion. He
delighted in watching other people enjoying pleasure in all forms, even if it
was their last time.
Anthony let out a
long shivering moan. His body twitched once, then twice, falling limp as Xavier
continued to feed, draining the body completely. He savored the warm,
delicious, thick fluid as it filled his mouth, flowing down his throat. He
could not, would not give this sensation up for anything in the world. He
tilted his head slightly, widening his mouth to capture more of the blood that
warmed him. It excited him; he could feel the warmth spread throughout his
limbs. His body tingled as though little electric shocks where bursting over
him. He had grown hard during the feeding, as all vampires did, and he felt his
passions rise to the crest.
Xavier was
disappointed when the blood stopped flowing as he was enjoying his feast. He
pulled away, letting Anthony’s corpse slip from his hands. The world seemed to
disappear as he relished the sensation the blood was giving him. He sat there,
head leaned back, eyes closed, full-shaped lips slightly parted as he ran his
hands down the length of his torso, past his stomach, to caress his aching
groin. His body twitched as he massaged his penis relieving some of the
pressure. Darian smiled, waving John out of his office. John nodded and scooped
up Anthony’s corpse, throwing the body over his shoulder before exiting the
room.
Darian walked up
to Xavier, peered into his gray eyes and smiled. He squatted beside his lover,
arms encircling the other man’s chest. He held him against his torso with one
arm, while his right hand slid up Xavier’s chest to caress his throat. He
grabbed Xavier’s chin, held his face up to his. Darian’s tongue darted out licking
the spilt blood from Xavier’s lips. Their tongues met in a passionate kiss. A
low groan escaped from Xavier as Darian began to caress him. He slid a hand
inside his shirt, fingers seeking the firm nipples and gently rolled the
delicate flesh between his fingertips, sending shivers through Xavier’s body.
Darian’s other hand slid further down to caress Xavier’s crotch, massaging the
hardness through the denim material. Ragged, panting moans filled the room as
Xavier began to feel his climax. All sensations stopped when Darian released
him and rose from the floor.
Confused and
disappointed, Xavier looked up, a questioning look on his face. “Why stop?”
Smiling wickedly,
Darian leaned close to Xavier’s ear and whispered.
“An eye for an
eye, my beautiful inamorato. Tomorrow night, we’ll share each other’s passions,
but not until then.”
He walked out of
the room, leaving Xavier completely unsatisfied.
Payback can sure
be a bitch. Xavier thought as he remembered interrupting Darian’s seduction of
Annette earlier.
Review
I
thought this book was well written, but initially I had a difficult time as the
story jumped between several characters that appeared to be totally unrelated
to one another except in peripheral ways, such as one person’s friend working
at a night club frequented by another’s love interest. Eventually it all came together and all
parties were introduced to each other and it became cohesive.
This is
a romantic paranormal vampire, shifter, seer murder mystery. I loved how all the elements came together to
form a story. I just wish it has been
more joined from the beginning.
I give
this book 4 out of 5 clouds.
