My Six Sentence Sunday today is from my previous release, Heart of Darkness, a stand alone and rather epic, action-packed and seriously passionate and intense vampire romance novel.
Please take a moment after reading and comment (comments are nice) to visit the Six Sentence Sunday site to find the other great authors who are participating, or check out the #sixsunday tag on Twitter!
A little setting info for the scene: Elise, the heroine and a vampire guard, was injured protecting Aleksandr, the hero and a vampire prince. She took a crossbow bolt in the back and has come to see if Aleksandr will allow her to return to duty, but he’s more interested in getting a look at her wound again and luring her into surrendering her fight enough that he can finally kiss her. He’s currently standing behind her, having told her that he won’t let her return to duty.
He pressed his lips to her shoulder and then her throat. She trembled again and turned her face towards him.
Aleksandr drew back and looked at her, into her round beguiling eyes that spoke to him of passion and hunger. She held his gaze, her soft breath fanning his face and her body brushing his. She tilted her head towards him and he couldn’t resist the invitation in her eyes as they dropped to his lips.
His mouth claimed hers, his left hand cradling her right cheek, keeping her in place so she couldn’t escape him again.
I hoped you all enjoyed it!
Heart of Darkness
Felicity Heaton
A vampire prince on a four hundred year old mission to avenge his murdered sister…
Aleksandr Nemov won’t stop until the last of the vampire hunter’s progeny is wiped from the Earth. Each kill has stolen a piece of his humanity, pushing him towards the black abyss all vampires hold within their hearts. Now he is teetering on the edge, close to devolving into a beast, and time is running out as he tracks the last hunter to Prague. There he finds a beautiful woman who could be his one chance for salvation, but is it already too late for him?
A vampire guard who will do whatever it takes to protect those she loves…
Elise is dedicated to her duty. It’s the only thing she has left. All that changes when she meets Aleksandr in Prague and her master grants him permission to stay at her bloodline’s mansion. She knows all about Aleksandr but none of it prepares her for how she feels when the legendary prince’s hunt becomes one for her heart. Elise battles him with all of her strength but can she stop herself from falling for the handsome hunter? When he reveals the depth of the corruption in his soul, will she have the strength to face the pain in her past and do whatever it takes to save him?
