Tantalizing Tuesdays - Meet the Parents


Every Tuesday a bunch of talented writers choose a picture that inspires them to write a 200 word teaser. 
 Thanks to Doris and Raven for sharing their pic inspiration and don't forget to check out their take on it here along with all the other writer peeps taking part.


Meet the Parents

Ryan settled into the comfy armchair as he faced the firing squad. He'd worn his best suit to show Sara's parents he was a man of means but the silk tie around his neck was growing tighter by the second.

"So, Sara tells us you're a banker?" Mr Henderson turned his six figure salary into an insult with a sneer.

"Yes, sir. I'm more than capable of looking after your daughter." Sweat broke on his top lip. This was so much harder than he'd expected.

"I think my Sara can take care of herself, son. You make sure you treat her with the respect she deserves."

"Oh, Alan, leave him alone. They clearly love each other and that's all that matters. Welcome to the family, Ryan. Now, where's that bottle of champagne we've been saving?" Mrs Henderson herded her recalcitrant husband out the door, leaving Ryan alone with his betrothed.

"You are killing me here! I'm trying to present myself as the perfect son-in-law and here I am with a bloody hard-on!" He adjusted his crotch as Sara uncrossed her legs opposite him.


"I thought you preferred me going commando?" She gave him a sinful smile and flashed him again.

#SexySnippets


This week saw the release of Evernight Publishing's hot shifter antho, Alpha's Claim. 


My story, Extinction, is included in amongst some fabulous stories. Care to read a #SexySnippet?

Holly's first impression of Lucas had been that he was an egotistical arse, not that he was some sort of sex attacker. But what possible explanation was there for him to be here minus his clothes?
"It's not how it looks. I can explain." He got to his feet and gave a full frontal view of everything Mother Nature had bestowed upon him, and boy she was one generous lady.
"Really? Because it looks as if you broke into my house and climbed into my bed uninvited." She tried to maintain eye contact, but it was difficult when his huge penis was vying for her attention.

She waved a hand in the general direction of his manhood. "For God's sake, put that away."

Alpha's Claim is now available at Evernight Publishing, Amazon, All Romance, and Bookstrand

Check out the rest of the #SexySnippets over at The Nuthouse Scribblers blog.

#FlasherFictionFriday #FFF

Check out these other authors and their 100 word take on this week's picture - Flasher Fiction Friday



After all her effort Vanessa's evening was turning into a nightmare. The knowledge that with one itsy bitsy spell she could salvage it was hard to resist.
"Only use your powers in an emergency." Her mother's warning rang in her ears.
Well, this situation was critical. Daniel was waiting in the other room and she needed to make him fall in love with her.

She scraped the burnt offerings of dinner into the bin and summoned all her energy into the palms of her hands. One magic infused soufflé and she would have him just where she wanted him.

Flasher Fiction Friday - Bound #FFF

This is my first attempt at Flash Fiction, so fingers crossed...



"Hard at it?" Jess made her way down into their cellar-cum-dungeon.
Elijah was hunched on the floor, shirtless, replacing the shackles with shiny new chains.
"I need something to vent my frustration on at this time of the month." He threw her a sexy grin.
"We'll make up for it next week, Babe." She was every bit as horny as he was, watching his muscles bunch as he worked.

"Hold that thought. It's time for you to go," he said taking the strain of the steel around his wrists. 
His eyes had already changed to those of his wolf.

Friday Flashers have 100 words to tell a story from the provided picture prompt. Don't forget to check out the rest of those taking part. Flasher Fiction Friday

Excerpt – Scars by Kiru Taye
"There's something I need to show you in our suite upstairs."
The corners of his mouth lifted in a boyish grin as the lift doors opened. Her gaze fixated on his lips—sensuously full, they were a mix of firmness on the edges and softness on the inside—and she wondered if he would kiss her.
Her pulse rate skyrocketed as they rode up and he pulled her into the circle of his arms. He looked so handsome in his fitted charcoal suit, broad torso tapering at the hips. Leaning this closely to him, his taut muscles beneath the soft silk fabric offered protection as well as a glimpse of the possession to come. With her head on his shoulder, his all-male spice permeated her pores with every breath she took.
"You do know we can't leave our guests at the reception just for a quickie," she said. Tilting her head so she could see his face, she curled her lips in an I'd-like-you-to-take-me smile. Her womb contracted in agreement.
Truth was, she needed to get laid—the hot, fast, sweaty kind. Since she agreed to marry Ben they hadn't been together, not even for a hand job. The mad rush to organise a wedding ceremony in such a short period of time, his insistence for her to move her things into his waterside penthouse apartment in Chelsea, combined with a pretty hefty schedule at work for both of them had left little time for anything else.
"Who says we can't?"
He kissed her, a ruthless sweep of his tongue and demand of his lips. She clutched the lapels of his jacket, hanging on as sensation assaulted her.
Beneath her dress, her lacy thong got soaked as she squirmed against him. She'd worn the skimpy underwear to avoid panty-lines showing through her dress. Perhaps she should've chosen something sturdier like French knickers.
When he lifted his head, she was breathless, panting.
"Ben?" she asked when she finally got her voice back.
The dark colour of his suit emphasised the intensity of his eyes and complemented his tanned skin. With his South African heritage, his skin tone was always on the golden side, despite the recent bad weather and lack of sunshine.
"No. But I've got the next best thing for you."
They stepped out of the lift, and he opened the door to the bridal suite. She followed him in, heart pounding in excitement.
"By the time the reception is over, you'll be begging me to fuck you."
