Thirteen Lines from "Touch Not The Ungloved Cat"

Here are thirteen consecutive paragraphs from my contribution to a FREE erotic short story collection coming Oct. 31 on the Beyond the Veil blog. Enjoy!

His admission did nothing to calm her, and she began pacing the cage, whacking the flats of her hands against the bars, wild eyes searching the steel for any weakness.

“William.” Her tone went strangely flat. “I have to get out of here.”
She paced in ever decreasing circles until she ended up frozen in place in the center.

He cautiously approached the cage, eyes narrowing as he watched her breasts rise and fall, rise and fall. Then stop.

“You have to breathe, love.”

After an agonizing few seconds, her chest heaved.

“It’s a natural reaction. It will pass.”

She wrapped her arms around her smooth, flat belly and turned her light silver eyes on him. “What would you know about my reactions to anything?”

“Because you and I…we are the same kind.”

Eyebrows slammed together. “We are nothing alike. I would have sensed it.”

“No. You wouldn’t. You were raised outside the enclave and never taught the finer skills.”

Suddenly she was at the bars of the cage, lifting her arms to grab a handhold high above her head. “I’ll show you skills. Just let me out.”

Her nipples were tight little buds, and he couldn’t keep his hungry gaze from caressing them. Her warm scent washed over him. Sweet mother of Camma, she was ripe and ready. He wasn’t sure if he’d be able to get her back to the enclave without mating with her.

SJ Willing kicks it off today with a section from "Somethings Popping Up In Dunvegas." I'm following up tomorrow with "Touch Not The Ungloved Cat." Look for more entries over the next two weeks from authors Xakara, Jenna Leigh, Jody Wallace, Bianca D'Arc (who created our logo!) and more.

It's wedding season!

My cousin's son is getting married this weekend, so today I only have time for a quick ghost story post over on the Beyond the Veil blog.

AHA! You clicked the Read More link, didn't you? The great thing about this feature is you can truncate long, rambling posts behind a cut. The downside is, you can't turn it on and off, because you have to hard-code it into the blog html code. Hmm. I think Blogger could take a hint from LiveJournal and figure out how to fix this.

Anyway, here's your reward. You Pavlovian specimens, you. [wink]

i. am. exhausted.

In a good way.
