Duncan's Descent (10 page)

“No.”

Trass shrugged. “I didn't think so. Best of luck with your brother. He's made some powerful enemies. I don't envy him his course.” Trass closed his eyes, and between one breath and the next, vanished into the shadows.

“Duncan?”

He turned to find Sapphira's eyes wide. “You saw him?”

“A blood elf.” She grinned, her expression so rapturous it was all he could do not to pounce on her and take that joy into himself. “I am so going to love it here. I've always wanted to see one. A dragon and a blood elf. Now what about the havoc?”

What about them?
“They're dangerous and don't associate with anyone outside of their own. Apparently, my brother has pissed them off to no end.” He laughed and shook his head. “Trust James to fuck up my honeymoon.”

“Honeymoon?” Sapphira glanced around her. “I don't see any flowers, and I know I haven't received any gifts.”

“Angel, this is your gift.” He waved his shaft in her direction and chuckled when she rolled her eyes. “Come on. I have to find Teban and my father, not necessarily in that order. And then you and I have a date with whipped cream you're just going to love.”

Sapphira cleaned and dressed. When she joined him again, she looked as fine as anything he'd seen. “About that. The whipped cream sounds fine. But do you think we could add a skin flick to that? Another thing I've always wanted to see.”

Duncan grinned and kissed her smack on the lips. “Baby, you and I think alike. You're
definitely
going to love it here.” He took her hand and teleported outside of his father's lair. “Now don't worry about Asael. He'll love you. But not more than I do.”

Sapphira smiled. “I'm so glad I've fallen, Duncan.”

A subtle band of light clung to her, like the aura that shone around his father. And Duncan knew he'd found his own piece of heaven, right in the middle of hell.

“Welcome home, Sapphira.”

A prank gone wrong throws three unlikely partners together: A demon. A dragon. And an egg.

Ethereal Foes,
Book 1

In the ordinary world, forces are at work which keep the balance of the universe in order. Enter Eve Sinclair, a higher demon with a mission—to sway those souls on the brink of Decision, to push them toward hell, as they are meant to go.

After a prank played by her brothers, Eve finds herself holding the proverbial bag, accused of stealing a precious dragon egg. Worse, it's a royal egg, as she learns from Ranton, the furious commander of the dragon legion.

Not a creature to have on one's bad side, Ranton shifts between his human and dragon forms, keeping Eve off-balance and off her game. Normally a master at manipulating males, Eve finds that Ranton is more than a match for her…as is his brother, the new dragon king. In their arms, she's mere putty.

And soon they're not only molding her desires, but her heart.

Warning: this title contains the following: explicit sex, graphic language, ménage a troi, and steamy dragon love

When a demon and a dragon get busy, “burning up the sheets” gets real.

Ethereal Foes,
Book 3

James thought stealing a royal dragon egg was a terrific idea—until the prank went sideways. His sister and twin brother have done their penance. Now it's his turn. Ten days of servitude to Teban, the dragon prince—James's best friend. Such a light sentence has to have a catch, so James does what any good demon would do. He bolts.

His string of bad luck holds steady when he falls prey to a pretty woman with sharp teeth. Kihra is havoc, a race of lower-realm creatures even demons fear. When she joins forces with Teban, their torment becomes delectable sin. No vice is too addictive, no demand too brutal when it comes to satisfying his lovers' needs.

All seems hellishly perfect—until the angels arrive for some payback. Kihra's kidnapped, Teban is missing, and James suffers the beatdown of the millennium. But he has no intention of letting his lovers go, though he risks the wrath of the demon king, the ire of the dragons, and an angelic punishment that could start a world-ending war.

Warning: Contents highly flammable. Contains dragons and demons having a painfully pleasurable good time. Havoc—literally—ensues. Handle with care.
