Excerpts
Excerpt
1:
As soon as we crossed into the
tent, the burn of strong incense made my eyes water. Madame Miranda was sitting
at a small table complete with Tarot cards and a crystal ball. She was old and
craggy, and when she spoke, her coarse voice made a chill run up my spine.
“I’ve been expecting you boys. I
have something to tell you.”
Since it was Myles’ idea to
enter the tent, we made him go first. My brain was too foggy from cheap beer to
process what she was saying to him, but he went as white as a ghost and shot
out of his chair.
“Marcus, come sit down and give
me your hand,” she said, and my heart picked up. How does she know my
name? “Do as you are told, beast!”
Shit. She knows my nickname too, I thought.
I sat across from her, and she
grasped my hand in hers, running her dry, bony fingers along my palm.
“Yes, Marcus, you are quite a
beast. But you will find your soul mate in due time. Roses will lead you to
her.” She looked up at me and as her eyes bored into mine she gripped my hand
tighter. “But be careful, beast. If you keep secrets from your belle
rose, your love will fall like petals in winter and you will risk losing
her forever.”
Excerpt 2:
He surprised
me when he finally said, “Would you like another shot?” The way he said the
words made my alcohol-swimming brain believe that he might have meant something
else.
“I’d love for you to give me a
Tequila-O.” My eyes went wide when I realized what I had said. “I mean, I’d
love another shot.”
Seeing that the bartender was on
the other end of the bar, Marcus reached across the bar and snagged a bottle of
Jose, pouring me a perfect shot. He slid it across to me and I slammed the shot
back, keeping my eyes closed while Jose did his work, burning a line down my
center.
The sound of Marcus’s deep voice
brought me back to reality “Tessa tells me that you designed the themes for the
different rooms here. Do you have a favorite?”
I felt heat rush into my cheeks
from more than just the Tequila-O, and I sent a silent prayer that the flashing
lights of the club had covered it up for me. “Lust is my favorite.”
Marcus slowly moved closer to
me. With one hand resting on my bare thigh just above my knee and the other
behind my neck, he pulled me toward him as he bent down and whispered in my
ear, “Lust is my favorite too.” Then he released me and walked away, leaving my
skin cold and empty where his hands had been.
