Full-blood vampire Vladimir Madison paced outside the big dark RV parked in an RV court between Philadelphia and New York. An invisible barrier his twin brother Aleksei said was alive blocked his passage.
Vlad frowned. With the help of their younger sister, Katie Dumont, he and Aleksei had finally tracked down one of the twins who had been calling out to them. Aleksei had managed to penetrate the so-called living barrier. He'd been gone for what felt like hours. Left alone, Vlad's anger raged. He raked a hand over his long, dark dreads, staring with glowing eyes at the RV.
Father. We need you. You must help us or I'll be coming to call you to account for deserting us.
He sucked in a breath. Those words had haunted and tortured him since his unnamed son had whispered them into his mind weeks ago. At the time, he had no idea the individual calling out to him was his half vampire, half shifter offspring. He and Aleksei had spent what felt like an eternity searching for the twins. Each one had called out to him and Aleksei separately. The knowledge that one of the twins had been poisoned lent an air of added desperation to their search.
Vlad closed his eyes, remembering his response to his son's cry for help. Whoever you are, I await you. Now here he stood, restless and angry. Using the special bond he and Aleksei shared, Vlad reached out to his twin. A combination of joy and anguish flooded his mind. Whoever Aleksei had encountered inside presented no threat, but brought a level of pain that made Vlad ache for him.
He shook his head, impatient to be allowed inside, to see the males... the men who were his... sons. His sons. Reaching deeper, he made brief contact with the male inside, touching his mind… and felt no particular connection. That was unexpected, as well as unwelcome. Vlad had resigned himself to being a father. Yet, strangely, he did not feel like a father. Was he a father? If so, why didn't Aleksei and his sons -- no, there was only one other male inside with Aleksei -- but why didn't he come out?
Closing his eyes, Vlad reached out again, issuing a soft command.
Come.
He felt an immediate and powerful response... one that did not originate from within the RV. In fact, it seemed to come from... Vlad swung around. He found himself facing a tall male with glowing gray eyes, short dark hair, and bared incisors.
"Bastard! Filthy bastard!" The male's right hand shot out with blinding speed. Vlad tilted his head to the side. A clenched fist brushed his ear. Undeterred, the baby vamp pressed his attack. Vlad blocked a flurry of blows with his forearms before losing his temper. He lashed out with a speed of which only a centuries old vampire was capable.
Just as his fist was about to connect with the other male's face, Vlad felt a strange tightness in his chest. Something inside him told him he did not want to hurt the male in front of him. He halted his fist and danced back from the baby vamp. The two considered each other in silence for several moments.
Vlad glanced at the RV. Whatever was happening inside, Aleksei needed to be undisturbed. Vlad turned and flashed toward the surrounding park with the other vampire racing behind him. It soon became clear the baby vamp could not match his speed. Without giving himself time to wonder at his actions, Vlad slowed down, eventually stopping. He turned to face his pursuer and would-be attacker. "I am Vladimir Madison."
The other male took a deep shuddering breath. "I am Etienne Gautier and I know who you are... I know what you are."
The other vampire's voice dripped with venom. His eyes shot off hate-filled virtual stabs aimed directly at Vlad's heart. He clenched his right hand into a fist and pressed it against his chest to assuage the sudden ache there. "Who are you?"
But even as he asked the question, he knew the other male's identity. He could feel an undeniable connection to this baby vamp. It was that connection that had allowed him to stay his hand when he would have delivered a near fatal blow to the other. It was the same connection that had allowed him and this… boy to call out to each other.
This boy -- this angry baby vamp -- was his son. Vlad gasped, feeling as if the air was being sucked from his lungs. His son. While he had felt nothing for the male in the RV giving Aleksei such pain, he felt a wealth of emotion in connection with this male... his boy... his son.
Vlad allowed his incisors to ascend. He looked at his son with eyes that no longer glowed. What did one say to an adult son one had never met? How did one express an unexpected but powerful need to protect that son? The emotions assailing him were bewildering. He'd only ever felt real devotion with his elder siblings, Aleksei, Tat, and Drei... and now with this angry baby vamp.
Showing affection or consideration for anyone other than his siblings was alien to him. Yet the anger and pain he sensed in the other male tore at him, making breathing difficult. He had to do something to help his son.
Having no experience of his own on which to draw, he responded as Aleksei had to him and their younger siblings many times. He opened his arms. "I am Vladimir Madison. Come to me... my son."

Jake's taken longer than a guy should to write his dissertation on the modern sex industry. He can't stand the thought of leaving behind the friends he's made at twentysomethingtwinks.com -- and he won't be able to live with himself if he doesn't act on some of his favorite fantasies.
That is, if shy-guy Jake can figure out a way to take the first step, and he has no idea where to begin.
A chance encounter and a night spent at the studio with a double handful of screen stars give Jake the chance to seize his dreams. All of them. And Jake's not the only one who's hoped for this. They've all wanted a taste of him for a long time now, and there's nothing to stop any of them from getting what they wished for.
Aaron. Cody. Gabriel. Dylan. Brandon. Maddox. Ross. Thom. Skyler.
And Jake.
Ten men, ten ways to misbehave. It's going to be a night to remember.

"How're you doing down there?"
Jake glanced up from his tablet PC to Thom, who'd taken one eye off the camera to check on him. "Me?"
"No, the invisible man next to you." Something tightly knotted in Thom's shoulders had eased and loosened since he'd hooked up with Skyler. He smiled more, and carried himself as if he were lighter than the scale indicated. Of course, if you didn't know him, you'd never know the difference.
Jake thought he'd gotten to know these guys better than any outsider ever had, or ever could. Almost. "I'm good," he said. "Twenty minutes, by the way."
Thom knew exactly what Jake referred to -- the time Aaron and Maddox had been going at it non-stop. He tilted his head sideways at the two Twentysomething studs sprawled out on the wooden pier, a beach blanket separating bare asses and knees from weathered gray planks. "I'm thinking about seeing if they can break the record."
Jake framed the pair with thumbs and forefingers. Maddox lay on his back with Aaron poised over him. Classic sixty-nine, Aaron's knees bracketing Maddox's head and his hands planted on either side of Maddox's hips. Miles of bare tanned and tattooed skin laid out for the sun to warm, and thick, dark cocks that plunged between lips, up and down.
He knew Aaron's tells by now. The stretch of his grimace and the way his stomach contracted -- "He won't last. Three more minutes and he's done for."
"Huh." Thom's eyebrow lifted. "Good eye. I'd have called two."
"Close enough."
"That only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades. And porn."
"A miss is as good as a mile in porn." Thom returned to the camera. "Guys? Take a breather, calm down before Aaron blows."
"Jesus Christ," Aaron gasped when Maddox's cock slipped free of his mouth. "Cody's getting his tongue pierced tonight. I don't care what I gotta promise him in return."
Maddox cackled, dark and wicked. "Aww, whassamatter? Big tough runner man can't stand up to a little metal?"
"Screw you." Aaron rolled off and flopped on his back. He stroked his cock, still thick and unrelieved. "Maybe. Thom, what do you want us to do?"
Maddox licked his lips, the silver bead at the end of his tongue glittering. "Direct us, big guy."
Jake's flash drive pen fell from his fingers. What would Maddox's mouth taste like now? Like spunk and metal and peppermint? The urge to find out almost drove him out of his comfortable cross-legged position at the water's edge behind Thom.
He cleared his throat and sat still, as quiet as a mouse. It was the only way he could keep it under wraps, this need to join in that'd started driving him nuts right around the time Aaron showed up at Twentysomething. Or maybe it'd always been there, and it took another newbie to make him understand.
"Direct you? Don't tempt me." Thom frowned at the sky. "I don't like the looks of that," he said, nodding for Jake to check out the gathering thunderheads. "Got dark way too quick."
"The cameras are safe in the rain, aren't they?"
"The cameras are." Thom grimaced. "The guys aren't. We're not insured against Acts of God and if lightning flash-fries Maddox he'll set the county on fire with all that electrified metal."
Jake stifled his laugh.
"Finish it up," Thom called. "Maddox, straddle him. Come on his chest. Lick it off. Aaron, as soon as he's done he's going to finish sucking you off. Cool?"
Aaron groaned. "You're gonna kill me."
"Is that a no?"
"Fuck, no. That's a 'bring it on'." Maddox had already crawled up Aaron's body and was poised with cock in hand, taut as a drawn bow, ready to aim and fire. "You think the tongue stud was wicked before? You ain't seen nothin' yet."
"God, I hope not." Aaron kneaded Maddox's ass cheeks, bubble-round and exactly the right size. "Give me your best shot."
Splinters of lightning cobwebbed across the sky, from cloud to cloud, followed seconds later by a rippling boom.
"Not literally," Thom scolded. "Maddox?"
Maddox wasn't listening, too busy with the heft of his cock flashing in and out of his tight fist. Aaron wasn't listening, his grip white-knuckled on Maddox's ass and his hips rising spasmodically in vain in search of something to fuck into. Maddox swore fit to impress a sailor when he striped Aaron's chest with spunk.
More lightning struck when he'd licked up his come and fed it to Aaron in a long, wet kiss. Aaron drank it down, still jerking, and stiffened. "Fuck, fuck, coming --"
Maddox moved faster than the lightning itself, down Aaron's torso with his mouth open and ready to catch the spurting jizz. He lashed his tongue stud against Aaron's cockhead and rolled his balls to milk out all he could.
Jake breathed in and out through his nose to calm down. He'd gotten good at taming wayward boners in the past few weeks. Good thing, too, or Aaron wouldn't have been the only one coming hands-free. God.
"Nice work," Thom said when Maddox slumped bonelessly over Aaron. "Get your asses inside on the double."
"What, no afterglow?" Aaron rasped. "I don't think I can move, man."
"I'll haul you in by the scruff if I have to," Thom said, already disassembling the camera setup. "I'm serious, guys. Move." Lightning flashed and thunder roared. Jake eyed the sky and listened to Thom, agreeing with him, "I think we're in for a storm we won't forget any time soon."

Blurb:
Control is essential for a dragon. Fiery breath, knife-sharp nails, and teeth that can shred a human in moments.
The day Brenton lost control is the day he ran from the one woman who can complete him, his fire companion. Now he's back and he's going to reclaim Sky Lilly forever and always.

There she was on her knees, like a good little sub. Sky Lilly was blindfolded, her hands bound behind her back in the fur-lined cuffs he'd picked out. The best part of it all was that she was naked. Every inch of her milk chocolate skin was exposed to his hungry gaze. Fire blazed through his veins as his cock hardened and pressed against the butter-soft suede of his pants. He had to take a deep breath in order to keep himself from going to her and fucking her senseless. His scales rippled under his skin, and his dragon pawed the space between them, begging silently to be let out.
Soulerrrrr, it purred in its gruff voice. Soul mate.
Ours, Brenton replied. He made his way further into the room, trying to keep as much space between them as possible. His dragon was already too close to the surface for it to be safe for her. Puffs of silvery smoke floated within view as arousal built inside of him. Desire skittered up and down his spine. His balls throbbed as the need to mate increased. His bones expanded and retracted, setting off sparks of pain.
Stop, he commanded his dragon. We cannot shift here. It would scare our mate.
The dragon paused. Claim later, it rasped.
Yes, later. Now go.
The dragon retreated deep into Brenton and he felt his body settle back into its human frame. The aches and pains faded away until Brenton could breathe without blowing out smoke. He began moving around the room, keeping her in sight as he selected his implements of pleasure for tonight. Sky had made a special request, and he had agreed to give it to her.
She wanted to be ridden hard tonight and not have him hold back. He would be more than pleased to give this to her. Yes, he had broken the rules, his rules, but it was worth it. She was worth it. He chose his signature suede flogger, an anal plug, lube and a vibrator with clit stimulator. These should do for now. He carried the items to a small table near her and laid them out with great care.
"Sky?"
"Yes, sir?"
"Are you ready to begin?"
"Yes, sir," she replied in a husky whisper.
A tremor ran through him at the tone of her voice. Her arousal scented the air, joining the musky perfume of incense. He tilted back his head and looked up at the ceiling. Brenton closed his eyes. His hands curled into tight fists, his nails digging into the palms as he tried to keep himself in check. Easy, easy, she's not ready for all of me yet, he admonished himself.
"Sir?" she softly asked.
He bit his bottom lip to hold back a groan. His hands trembled. Just the sound of her voice tested the limits of his control. He gazed at her and bit down hard, drawing blood. The metallic taste rushed over his tongue, reminding him for a second that he had to stop himself from reaching out. His gaze moved over her curves, her small high breasts and lush hips. Goddess, I want to fuck her so badly. His cock jumped as he imagined the feel of her tight, wet sheath contracting around him as he pounded into her hard and fast.
A groan escaped and he silently swore.
"Sir, are you okay?" she asked. Worry tinged her tone, which made him melt a little. She had only been with him for three months and already they'd formed a bond that, to him, was unbreakable. He felt as close to her as to his brothers. In his soul he knew she was his fire companion. He would have to wait to tell her though. She had just come out of being bonded to a dragon lord. Sky would want freedom first before settling down again. For now, he'd take this time with her.
"I'm fine, Sky," he lied. Brenton was hanging on by a thread. He hadn't had sex in three months, all because of her. It had shocked him when his brothers pointed out that they hadn't seen him with anyone in quite a while.
Truth was no one else had caught his eye the way Sky had. He couldn't picture himself being with anyone else. Taking another to his bed felt wrong. Brenton hadn't yet told his brothers about Sky. Not yet, this was too new. She was his, all his, and he didn't want to share her with them just yet.
They knew her already, but they didn't know what she meant to him. Part of him hated keeping something like this from them, but he'd shared everything with his siblings all his life. Sky would be only his. He took a steadying breath before proceeding with the session he'd planned especially for her.
"I'm going to start by using an anal plug. You've expressed interest in being taken there. I'm going to help you up. You are to lean over the bench and relax. This may hurt or cause you some discomfort. If you need me to stop, use your safe word." He held his breath and waited for her reply.
"Yes, sir."
"Good." He braced himself to touch her. The dragon had peeked out. Its forked tongue slithered out of its mouth, tasting the air. Brenton's scales rippled underneath his skin, threatening to overtake him. Go away, it's not time yet.
The dragon huffed, silver steam slipping from its long jaw. Soon?
Soon.

Blurb:






Perry Scranton's chocolate shop in Silver River, Colorado, sells more than just orgasm-worthy truffles. His specialty is magical chocolate that leads whoever tastes it to their true love.
In spite of his magical matchmaking, Perry remains single. He expects he will remain so, since he's gay, just turned forty, and lives in a tiny mountain town where his dating pool is so limited it might as well be nonexistent.
Until Foster Carlisle walks into his shop, tall and lean and hot as hell. With a strange feeling Foster might be "the one," Perry hands him a very special piece of chocolate and hopes for the best...

"That'll be nine-fifty, Mrs. Carson." Perry Scranton tied a neat ribbon about the package of chocolates and handed them to Milly Carson. Expensive, he knew, for a half-dozen chocolates, but they were worth every penny.
"Thank you so much, Mr. Scranton." She looked at the package, then back up at Perry. "You're sure they'll work?"
Perry smiled. "I'm never really sure, ma'am, but I haven't had any complaints yet."
The statement seemed to please her, for she smiled, then leaned over the counter to speak directly to Perry.
"You ought to make some of those special chocolates for yourself. You could use a sweet young thing in your life."
Perry nodded a little. "Well, I think I'm getting a bit too old for sweet young things."
"Still. Worth a shot, isn't it?"
With a chuckle, she left the shop.
Perry watched her go, then turned his attention back to the cash register. He straightened the bills, making sure they all faced the same direction.
She wasn't the first person who'd pointed out the irony of the business he did. He sold chocolates to lovers, chocolates that were meant to bring lovers together. No one but Perry really understood how it worked. If he told anyone else, they wouldn't believe him, anyway.
But it had never worked for him. He'd tried, once or twice, putting his special magic in a truffle or two for his own table, when a likely prospect had happened by. But the likely prospects had barely looked twice, moving on to other men.
He'd told himself at the time they just hadn't been the right one, but now, with his fortieth birthday two weeks in the past, he was beginning to think there would never be a right one.
Especially not here. When Milly Carson had mentioned "sweet young things," Perry was pretty sure she'd meant female things. Perry wasn't all that interested in female things. He liked his partners with dicks, thank you very much.
At forty, in a small town like this, he was more than past his prime. He might as well resign himself to a life of matchmaking for everybody else, while he entertained himself in the evenings with crappy porn, a tube of KY, and his own hand.
The bag of chocolates he'd just sold Millie would bring her daughter to her true love. They'd bring Perry nine dollars and fifty cents and another plus sign for his reputation.
He snapped on fresh plastic gloves and turned to the ganache he was molding for the next batch of truffles. Not magic ones this time -- just plain, ordinary, to-die-for dark chocolate truffles.
Well. Maybe a little magic. Just enough to keep them all coming back.
He was carefully pouring melted chocolate over the exactly formed mounds of ganache when the bells above the front door tinkled again. Perry looked up with a smile to greet the arriving customer.
And froze.
The young man who walked in was easily the hottest thing he'd seen in all his ten years of living in Silver River, Colorado. Tall and lean, with stylishly spiky dark hair and eyes so bright blue they almost seemed to glow, he sauntered into the store, taking in the shelves and gift baskets.
"Afternoon," Perry said, his voice surprisingly calm in spite of the turmoil that had begun in his body. "What can I do you for?"
A poor turn of phrase, he thought as the words came out of his mouth. The young man looked up and grinned at him. "Just checking you out," he said.
Perry blinked. Another interesting turn of phrase. He wondered how the young man had meant it.
"You're Perry Scranton?" he asked. "The owner?"
"Yeah." He held out a hand over the counter and the other man took it.
"Foster," he said. "Foster Carlisle."
"Good to meet you." He reluctantly released his grip on Foster's hand. Their palms had fit together neatly, and the handshake had been just right -- not too tight, not too limp, and not a bit sweaty. It made Perry's thoughts drift to places he shouldn't be considering. Not right now.
"They say this is the best chocolate in the county," Foster was saying. Perry had almost missed it.
"They say the truth." Perry smiled. "Maybe the best chocolate in the state."
"If you do say so yourself."
"I do." He reached behind the counter and withdrew one of the fresh truffles. "Like to try one?"
"Hmmmm." Foster eyed it with a coy tilt to his head. "Maybe I just will."
Delicately, he lifted the truffle from Perry's palm. The tips of his fingers brushed Perry's skin. Again, Perry felt that vague thrill.
He took a closer look at Foster. He was easily ten years younger than Perry, which under most circumstances would have stopped Perry from taking a serious look. He knew his limits, and men under thirty-five or so were off-limits.
But there was something...
"Oh, God," said Foster, who had popped the truffle into his mouth. Perry preferred to see people down the truffles more delicately, to allow for a chance to savor the flavors he slaved over so diligently, but since Foster was a first-timer, he'd make allowances. Especially since, at this moment, Foster was making one of the most enticing orgasm faces Perry had ever seen.
Perry smiled. "I told you."
"Oh, God." It seemed to be the only thing Foster could manage to say. "God, oh, God." Then he shut up and just closed his eyes, mouth working around the chocolate.
Perry's smile faded as he made another realization. His cock had risen, steel-hard against the back of his zipper. Not that it was an unusual reaction, especially when faced with a good-looking young man making a sequence of orgasm faces, but it was... different somehow.
Perry frowned. He'd never felt quite like this before, but now that he was focusing his attention on the sensation, he thought he recognized it. It was the same feeling he got when someone came into his shop who seriously needed Perry's special brand of magic. Combined with the desire spiraling through his own groin, it made Perry wonder.
No, it made Perry hope.

Authors After Dark Convention Recap by Selena Illyria

Authors After Dark Convention Recap
By Selena Illyria

Authors After Dark Convention- A Convention for Paranormal/Fantasy authors and readers.
It took place on October 23rd-24th in Suffern, New York.

First off I have to say a big thank you to Jacquelyn Frank, Stella Price and Bianca D’Arc who did an amazing job putting this small convention together. It was wonderful and I look forward to next year.

The first day of the Convention, from the word start it was go, go, go. Not unusual for convention. Most Cons there are a thousand things going on at the same time , workshops, mini-parties, mini-events , meetings, etc. For the Convention, what was refreshing was nothing was piled up on each other.

The Con started off with two mini events, both casual and yet full of energy and fun. Because there wasn’t a lot going on and only a hundred attendees, it made for a more intimate setting. But just because there weren’t a lot of people don’t think it wasn’t full of energy , fun and noise. LOL. Take the Candy shop mixer, giving away the first of the door prizes was an event on it’s own. Every win was celebrated and the prizes given away were awesome, from books to promo to T-Shirts, I even think there was an iPod given away at one point.

Once the door prizes were given away you could eat and wander around and check out some of the things that were up for the raffle.




The raffle was set up to benefit the Pets Alive Sanctuary, which is a No-Kill Sanctuary.

The Candy Mixer was followed by tarot, palmistry and rune. I only looked in but there was a line for it and it all looked very fun.


The next day, we started off with a buffet style breakfast, where more door prizes were given away. After breakfast you had the option of wandering around the bookseller section or attending the Vampire panel (which was a whole lot of fun). The one thing I really appreciated was the panels were one right after the other rather than held at the same time. I missed the Faerie panel but was able to catch Witches and the Craft panel, which gave me a new idea on how to approach plotting for my books.

After that it was Luncheon and a Baby Shower for Audra Price. Happy Ninja! (Inside joke). This was an example of what was put out at the place settings. Very naughty, yes?








SI Note: I didn't see this chocy until the next day. LOL. At first I was wondering what they were doing. On closer inspection I knew I had to take a pic. LOL

After Lunch, there was book signing. I have to give a shout out to Lindsey E. who won a book from me a few weeks ago and has read a few of my books. It is so awesome to meet readers. Here’s a piccie of my place at the signing table.







Yeah, I’m dork for taking a pic of my place at the book signing but I don’t do these that often. The cool thing was that some people from the Pets Alive Sanctuary came by with two adorable dogs (the cuteness was overwhelming).


Once thing slowed down it was time to get ready for the Masquerade Ball, which I didn’t really dress up for. I’m sure you can find a pic of me floating around somewhere. LOL. I just wore a simple dress, boots and my jacket. More door prizes, I actually won a book! Yay! And then the ball/party kicked off.

If you see a pic of me, you’l l notice the jacket was a main stay, I was freezing for most of the time. It’s the only complaint I have. LOL. I have no blood, the vampire sucked it all out. LOL. Kidding! You think. Flash, hon, you missed some awesome costumes. Here are two examples:

Carol dressed as Jane Austen as a vampire





Ann dressed as Morgana.





Quick note about Carol and Ann’s costumes, they were handmade. Gorgeous and Very awesome, yes?

And Lindsey:





There were so many awesome costumes. I have to find the pics. I should mention dinner was delicious. The steak…yum, doesn’t even describe it. I did a bit of dancing, not much and left the party close to midnight I think? Can’t quite remember. LOL.

The next day was the last and I have to say it was sad leaving. In such a short amount of time, a weekend, I’d had so much and meet so many wonderful people.

We had breakfast (more books at the place settings) and then the Charity Raffle Results. AAD managed to raise $!,500 for Pets Alive. I will say this much, the amount of tickets purchased for the raffle, you could probably make a dress or two out of it. LOL.

After breakfast it was the last panel for Shifters and Demons, which I was on. That was a fun panel. *Grin* And then, sadly it was time to go. I am looking forward to next year, even started planning. All I can say is the Authors After Dark was well worth the money and the weekend and would gladly do it all over again.
