<\/p>\n
Today’s tease comes from the paranormal romance book Unleash<\/a>, which is the sixth book in my popular Vampire Erotic Theatre romance series<\/a>. Read on for this Tuesday’s tease…<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n A blistering wave of fire burned up his blood, setting every molecule in his body aflame, and he rolled his eyes open and arched off the bed, his mouth opening in a silent scream. Couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t roar. If he did, Antoine would come. Antoine would see the angel. Antoine would harm her.<\/p>\n Snow growled low in his throat at that thought.<\/p>\n He would kill any who touched her.<\/p>\n His claws extended at the same time as his fangs, and the apartment brightened as his eyes changed, burning red around his cat-like pupils.<\/p>\n Snow fought harder than ever to break the restraints, driven by a mindless need to free himself so he could protect the female and by a dark hunger to drain her dry at the same time.<\/p>\n She rushed forwards as the collar sliced into his throat, spilling a thick stream of his blood down his neck.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153You must calm yourself,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she whispered softly, those words laced with emotions that were beyond his grasp as the bloodlust seized hold of him again and her proximity drove him mad with a need to taste her. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153You are hurting yourself.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n The note in her melodic voice told him more than she was willing to say. She couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t bear the sight of him hurting himself. The scent of blood filled his room and, even though it was his own tainted life force, it sent him back over the edge.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I am unsure how to help you.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d She hovered close to him and he managed to get his eyes to focus on her for a brief second, long enough to see the frustration that darkened her innocent features.<\/p>\n Snow growled, rolled his eyes back and snarled as he pulled harder on the chains. The steel bedposts creaked under the pressure. Agony shredded his insides, liquefying his bones and stealing his strength away, leaving him helpless. He still fought like a wild thing, ferocious and vicious as he battled his restraints, hungry to escape and taste the female.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153So much pain and suffering,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she whispered and he cursed at her again, telling her in the old language to leave him alone, hoping she would listen this time.<\/p>\n The need for blood became too much and he sank his fangs into his own lower lip and sucked furiously on it, ravenous and unable to stop himself.<\/p>\n The angel left his side and he couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t track her. The bloodlust dulled his senses. He opened his eyes again and followed her as she paced around the room, studying her every move.<\/p>\n If she came close enough, he would bite her. He sucked harder on his own foul blood, imagining it was the sweet nectar that flowed in her veins. He ached for her blood even as he ached to leave her unspoiled.<\/p>\n She searched his room, her air desperate, small hands clenching and unclenching in front of her stomach. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153You must have some blood here somewhere. Where do you keep it?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n Snow released his lip and wheezed, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153No use\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 like ashes\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 empty of life.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n She gave him another pitying look and then her dark eyebrows rose high on her forehead, something dawning in her incredible eyes, and she approached him.<\/p>\n She stood beside his bed with a calm and decided expression on her face and held her arm out to him.<\/p>\n Snow stared at her in shock and then turned his face away. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Do not touch me\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 I will taint you. You are pure\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 I am not.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n She huffed. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I am not as pure as you believe.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n She leaned over him and brought her wrist right up to his lips.<\/p>\n Snow swallowed hard and his gaze slid to the soft flesh on the underside of her forearm. He told himself to resist even as another part of him demanded he take what she offered so freely. No. It wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t help him. It wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t free him of his bloodlust. It would only make it worse. He had to abstain from blood until he was weak and then begin again with smaller quantities.<\/p>\n He had to drink.<\/p>\n He couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t deny that dark urge.<\/p>\n Snow struck hard, burying his fangs deep into her soft body. She cried out and slapped her free hand over her mouth to stifle the rest of it, the sound distant to his ears as her blood rushed into him.<\/p>\n It was warm and tasted incredible, like nothing he had ever taken before, sweet and bitter at the same time, imbued with power that shot through his system like a drug, giving him what should be an illegal high.<\/p>\n He drank greedily, powerless to stop himself from taking all that he could, desperate for more of her. His cock hardened painfully, his body coming alive with sensation that left him dizzy and hazy, lost on a warm sea of bliss.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Enough!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d She tore her arm away from him and stumbled backwards. She blindly grabbed the metal post at the foot of his bed for support and slid down it to land on the floor with a harsh thud.<\/p>\n Snow opened his eyes, craned his neck as much as he could and stared down at her, shocked by what she had done and how she had tasted. Tears streaked her cheeks and there were red marks on them where she had pressed her fingers into them when covering her mouth to stop herself from crying out in pain. She held her wrist to her chest, clutching it tightly, her knuckles blazing white. Blood already spotted her pristine pale dress, marring the pure fabric.<\/p>\n He had hurt her.<\/p>\n He cursed himself this time, guilt riding him hard and chasing him down from his high. He had tainted her and harmed her. He had made her cry with his vicious attack on her and his greed.<\/p>\n He should have eased his fangs in gently and sipped from her with the reverence she deserved. He should have made it pleasurable for her.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Do you often starve yourself to the point of insanity?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d She snapped the words at him like a whip, her innocence evaporating as she scowled, her eyes dark with the pain and fury she emanated.<\/p>\n Snow was quiet for a few long seconds, unsure what to say in response to that or how to make things better. Would she accept an apology? He had told her not to offer her wrist. She had seen him at his worst. She should have known he would hurt her.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I had blood a short while ago,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d he confessed, \u00e2\u20ac\u0153but it tastes like death to me these days. But you\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 you taste like life. How?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n He hadn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t missed the little fact that drinking her blood had driven him right through the other side of his bloodlust and into the clear too. The way he felt right now, he knew he wouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t suffer another attack for at least a day, if not more. He had never felt this normal, not since before his bloodlust had first emerged.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Do you suffer like this every night?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Her expression softened to reveal the innocence that he was coming to like about her. Her wide luminous eyes still sparkled with the tears that were drying on her pale cheeks, but they no longer held anger and darkness. They were soft and bright, inquisitive again. He nodded. Her fine black eyebrows puckered into a small frown. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153There is no cure?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Only death.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Something he had long desired but had always been denied.<\/p>\n She swallowed and closed her eyes, her frown hardening. She released her wrist and pressed her bloodied hand to her head, smudging red across it.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153You are unwell?\u00e2\u20ac\u009d he said, his guilt returning with a vengeance.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I feel dizzy\u00e2\u20ac\u00a6 and a little weak.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d Her eyes opened and fixed on him, the brightness in them gone.<\/p>\n Snow frowned. How much had he taken from her? She was slender and delicate. He had drunk greedily. He had taken too much. If she had been a normal weak human, he probably would have killed her. The black wings curling around her shoulders were a constant reminder that she was anything but weak. An angel.<\/p>\n And she had given him blood.<\/p>\n That couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t be a good thing for her to have done.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Come to me. Let me seal the wound.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d He jerked his chin, trying to coax her into doing as he asked.<\/p>\n She grasped the bedpost and slowly pulled herself up off the floor, and then stumbled forwards and collapsed onto the mattress beside him, her breathing rapid and shallow. She shook as she bravely offered her right wrist to him.<\/p>\n Snow gently licked it, cleaning away the blood. His tongue on her flesh felt so good and he liked the way she stared at him, watching him intently.<\/p>\n Her skin was hot, her taste delectable.<\/p>\n He ached to feel her body against his, soft against hard, warm against cool. He hadn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t touched a female in centuries, hadn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t wanted to either, but he longed to lay his hands on her and learn her curves, her fragrance, and her sweetest spots.<\/p>\n It was wrong of him to desire her, an angel, one pure and untainted while he was wretched, but she brought out the devil in him. She made him want to taint her and ruin her.<\/p>\n Possess her.<\/p>\n He shifted his focus back to her wrist, taking care to ensure that the bleeding had stopped before he leaned his head back on the black pillows.<\/p>\n His gentleness seemed to please her and she offered him a small smile as she drew her arm back to her.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I had feared you would begin drinking again,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she whispered and ran her thumb over the marks on her wrist, her gaze on them now. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153They tell our kind that vampires are foul.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n Her gaze flickered over his face to settle on his hair and she reached out and lifted one of the long strands, drawing it out of his eyes.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Snow,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d she murmured and his vivid scarlet eyes shifted to meet hers and narrowed. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Your hair is like snow. It is pure and beautiful.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n Snow turned his face away. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153You of all people should know how impure I am.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n She sighed and even that sounded melodic and soothing to him. Her hand left his hair and she shifted on the bed. When he realised what she intended, he snapped his head around to face her, catching her reaching for the cuff that secured his right wrist.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153Don\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t!\u00e2\u20ac\u009d he barked and she ignored him.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153You are safe now, satisfied. You will not hurt me.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d She sounded so positive that he almost smiled and couldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t resist pointing out something that would contradict her belief and most likely have her blushing again.<\/p>\n \u00e2\u20ac\u0153I am not so sure,\u00e2\u20ac\u009d he said and she paused to look at him. \u00e2\u20ac\u0153My bloodlust is under control, but you are still not safe from me. I am not sure you ever will be.\u00e2\u20ac\u009d<\/p>\n She looked confused at first and then her cheeks darkened to the deepest shade of red so far and her eyes widened, and he knew she had understood him and was now aware of the danger she was in. His bloodlust was sated, but he still felt an undeniable and consuming lust for her.<\/p>\n Snow smiled at the way her eyes edged downwards, towards his hips, as though she was unaware of what she was doing before it was too late and her gaze settled on his groin. Her cheeks darkened another shade. She swallowed and her heart fluttered wildly. Why?<\/p>\n Were her thoughts running along the same line as his were? He wanted to feel her hands on his flesh, touching and stroking him, pleasuring him and bringing him to climax. Did she desire the feel of his hands on her, using his strength and dominating her as they made love?<\/p><\/blockquote>\n <\/p>\n Did you enjoy today’s tease?<\/p>\n <\/p>\n When the mysterious and beautiful songstress reappears in Snow\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s room at Vampirerotique, she awakens a fierce protective streak and stirs dark desires that drive him to claim her as his female, even when he knows his touch will destroy her innocence.<\/p>\n A single forbidden taste is all it takes to unleash emotions in Aurora that she shouldn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t possess, tearing her between duty and desire, and luring her into surrendering to her wildfire passion and embracing hungers that burn so hotly they threaten to consume them both.<\/p>\n One act of kindness can lead to one thousand acts of sin though, each a black mark against the bearer\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s soul and another grain of sand that slips through an hourglass. The clock is ticking and time is almost up.
