THE SETUP:
This scene is from NOBODY'S ANGEL (on sale Sept. 30). Master Marc is lying in bed with Angelina, who continues to deny she is a submissive. He thinks otherwise, so when she asks him to kiss her, he asks if it's a want or a need. She replies it's a definite need--having learned that needs are met by Marc faster than wants. Then he asks if he should kiss her as her Dom. She says he's not her Dom, so he gives her a sweet, sexy kiss--that does nothing for her. 

Then his expression changes and she knows he's going to kiss her as if he were her Dom. (A very hot display of dominance precedes this Six--thumb in her mouth, hand on her jaw opening her wide to plunder her mouth with his tongue. *fans self*) 

And then this six-sentence excerpt:

Marc pulled his tongue out just before he captured her lower lip between his teeth and tugged, causing her to release a breathless gasp. He bit her lip, not breaking the skin but hard enough to sting, bringing tears to her eyes. His hand skimmed teasingly down her jaw, over her upper chest leaving a wake of gooseflesh, only to grasp her nipple and roll it hard between his fingers, sending her hips bolting upward in response.

Angelina pulled away, panting. “I need you inside me, Marc.”

“Not yet, cara.”

Of course, Master Marc knows the difference between what Angelina wants and what she needs, like a good Dom.

Six Sunday: Apologize to the Lady (NOBODY'S ANGEL)

For this week's Six Sentence Sunday, I just looked at where I was in the editing of NOBODY'S ANGEL and found this scene. We're in Angelina's point of view at daVinci's neighborhood bar. This is one month after Allen (Sir Asshole, as Master Marc calls him) put her in deep subspace when he ignored her safe word during a flogging scene at the Masters at Arms club. 

When her now ex-boyfriend Allen shows up at the bar with his new girlfriend, Angelina enlisted the help of Marc D'Alessio (whom she doesn't recognize him as her rescuer from the club) and his SAR partner, Luke Denton. Tired of trying to get her alone, Allen approaches her table when Luke and Angelina are seated. Marc has just returned to the booth.

She's worried that a fight is going to break out in her friend's bar, what with all the testosterone surrounding her at the moment. Angelina speaks the first line.

“Marc…”

Allen looked down at her. “If I’d known you were into threesomes, Angie…”

She winced, but before she could form a response, Marc’s hand snaked out and grabbed him by the throat. 

“You’re going to apologize to the lady, and then you’re going to get your sorry ass back to your date, or I’m going to mess up that face you seem so fond of.” His voice remained calm, but lethal.

Six Sunday: New Beginning for NOBODY'S ANGEL (Adam & Karla)

I began rewriting NOBODY'S ANGEL this week, the second novel in the RESCUE ME series (due to be released on Amazon and Smashwords late September). This is Master Marc's romance.

However, Master Adam is on the minds of many of my readers since MASTERS AT ARMS was released last week. Why, on Saturday, he was with one reader in Australia, then had to rush to Indianapolis to be the "top" on a lucky woman's birthday cake, but then had to turn around to be back in Oz by nightfall. The poor man is exhausted! But, because he's still trying to avoid Karla, he welcome the diversion.

So, what do you think of Karla's new stage outfit at the club? Master Adam has gotten her to change out of her Maid Marion outfits!

Now, at last, here's my Six Sentence snippet, from near the beginning of Chapter One of NOBODY'S ANGEL. This is told from Dungeon Monitor Supervisor Master Marc's perspective, as he glances over at Adam whose gaze is locked on Karla up on the stage, singing an ethereal Goth song.

Damn. The look of intense longing on his friend’s face bordered on pain. If Adam wanted her so badly, why didn’t he just go after her? Marc knew they shared some kind of history together, but Adam was doing his damnedest to treat her like a daughter. Hell, the looks Karla gave him were anything but those of a daughter's. Not that Adam noticed—when he allowed himself to get anywhere near her, that is.

Masters at Arms is Published! (And Six Sentence Sunday!)

I'm so excited to tell you that MASTERS AT ARMS, the first novel and an introduction to the RESCUE ME series is now available at Smashwords (in all e-book formats) and at Amazon in Kindle format. Only 99 cents for a 58,000-word novel!

And here is a continuation of the MASTERS AT ARMS scene from last week's Six Sentence Sunday, for all of you who wondered how Master Marc would handle his unwelcome visitor from his past. I like his idea of torture, though. (Don't bother to count--I know there are more than six. But it's so short and I want to avoid a setup.)

     “Twice you have addressed me as Marco without using my proper title. You owe me two more orgasms.” They’d negotiated orgasm torture before, but broke up before they’d tried it. “I. Said. Come. Again.” He ground the words out against her ear. With her body restrained under his, he stroked her clit harder, faster. She couldn’t escape the pressure he applied. She was trapped.

     Just as he was.

     Trapped.

Six-Sentence Sunday: Ah, Shit. Not again (MASTERS AT ARMS)

Here's a new scene recently added to MASTERS AT ARMS that gives us a glimpse at what tore Master Marc (then Master Marco) and his brother apart just before Gino left home and was killed in Afghanistan.

Marc has just opened his apartment door to find his college girlfriend and the woman he almost asked to marry him kneeling on the welcome mat.

Ah, shit. Not again.

“I’ve been very bad, Master Marco.”

Melissa raised her head to look at him and smiled. She wore a very low-cut blouse, her breasts spilling from the gaping vee. Two years ago, he’d have dragged her inside, stripped her, and had her ass reddened within ten minutes.

That was before he’d found her in bed with his brother, Gino.

Six Sentence Sunday: Karla's Declaration (Masters at Arms)

This scene will need little introduction, because it's the beginning of the exchange. We're in Adam's head and 16-year-old Karla has told Adam there's something very important she has to tell him, but she doesn't want to do it with her extended family watching. (It's Thanksgiving Day.)

She's about to send Master Adam into uncharted waters. The humorous scene that follows makes me laugh every time I read it. And, yes, I can count and it IS 7 sentences. But one is only one word, so I figured you'd cut me some slack.

Karla splayed her gloved hand on his chest, over his heart, and looked up at him with those big sparkling blue eyes surrounded by that God-awful makeup and pink hair. She searched his eyes for a long moment, he didn’t know for what.

Fuck. He felt a niggling at the scar on the back of his neck—always a sign he wasn’t going to want to deal with whatever was incoming. God, he hoped she wasn’t about to say what he thought she was getting ready to lay on him.

“Adam, I l-l-love you.”

Double fucking damn.
