Hello and welcome to another Hump Day Hook. I have finally
decided to tear myself away from the Redcliffe novels and offer you a little
something different. Here is an excerpt from my as yet unpublished novella The
Darkenss of Love. It follows the story of Marcus Scott, who appears in
Redcliffe, and is set during the industrious Victorian era. This snippet is an
intimate scene between Lord Gregory Stockton and his beautiful young wife,
Sarah.
“My dear, I
am sorry,” he said quietly, “I forget how sensitive you are to cool
temperatures. Allow me to warm
you.”
He slid
his hands down her sides, smoothing over the rich taffeta, and she stood very
still, enjoying his caress despite her embarrassment at his bold
behaviour. Resting his hands on her
hips, Gregory lowered his handsome youthful face and tenderly kissed her
rosebud lips. His body reacted as it
always did to her tenderness. She was
delicate, so beautiful, and always so compliant for him. His teeth itched as his fangs fought to free
themselves, and it took all his self-control not to bite her white skin, and
drink deeply of her sweet blood.
