Clik here to view.My turn to post today, and I have absolutely nothing to say. I think my brain has been fried by not only all the heat we’re suffering here in Melbourne, but also from all the edits I’ve been doing of late. So, I’m going to take the easy way out, and post a little snippet from the next Dark Angels book, Darkness Unmasked. Enjoy Image may be NSFW.

I headed back upstairs. Azriel still sat on the sofa, and I shook my head as I walked over to my desk to grab my coat, purse, and keys. “Don’t you ever get bored, sitting there doing nothing?”
He raised an eyebrow. “Who said I was doing nothing?”
I glanced around. “Well, that’s what it looks like from where I’m standing.”
“Well, perhaps you should stand a little closer.”
I grinned. “I keep trying. You keep pushing me away.”
He rose and plucked the jacket from my grip, holding it out for me. “I did not mean in the physical sense.”
I snorted softly as I shoved my arms into the sleeves. “Well, I can hardly get close to you mentally. The connection isn’t two-way, remember?”
“I was not talking about either physical or mental connections.”
I swung around, but he didn’t move his hands, and his fingers trailed across my skin. His touch was warm, electric, and stirred to life the unsatisfied embers of desire once more. “What other connection is there?”
He hesitated. “For you and I, perhaps no other.”
It was the “perhaps” portion of that statement that had me intrigued. “But reapers do have other choices?”
“Yes. It is the manner of our beings. This world of yours is filled with a vast array of energy harmonies, and it is a beautiful and wondrous thing to listen to.”
“And rather noisy, I would have thought.”
He smiled. “You learn to tune out the noisier melodies.”
I arched an eyebrow. “You don’t seem to have much luck tuning me out.”
“No, but then, you’re noisier than most. And more determined.”
