Witchy Woman
by
Lorna Eames
Life can be a challenge when you’re a witch under a curse,
especially if you’re doing everything in your power to fight your destiny. Alex
Dragomir thinks her life is under control. She doesn’t actively use magick and
she hasn’t met a werewolf who can stir the curse within her earning her the
title of ‘Ice Princess’.
Everything changes when she comes under attack by rogue
werewolves. Lock LeCount, enforcer and totally delectable werewolf steps up to
be her bodyguard stirring the embers of the curse to life. Turning back to the
magick Alex once fled seems her only option but it draw her closer to Lock, as
they discover the ability to meld their preternatural powers to fight the
enemy. Along with the curse comes her uncontrollable response to Rumor, the
enigmatic bad boy who attempts to lure her to his bed.
Fighting new found feeling of desire and finally facing her
magickal heritage takes its toll on her sanity, making her question everything
and everyone. Who can Alex trust and will her growing powers be enough to save
her from the fate awaiting her?
The song ended and the tempo of the music slowed. His hands
wrapped around her waist pressing his muscled hips and thighs against her. She
followed the slow sensual movement of his body. Fingers lightly stroked her
back, mesmerizing her with their touch.
Alex felt the warmth of his breath at the base of her
neck, stirring the embers of the fire Rumor had started earlier. The words to
the song seeped into her brain fogging her thoughts with the sensual undertones
they inspired.
Rumor leaned in taking advantage of their closeness. Warm lips
caressed the sensitive side of her throat, shivers moved through her body. Alex
tilted her head slightly, giving him greater access to her slender neck. A soft
moan escaped her lips. His tongue licked its way up the side of the neck behind
her ear, gently nipping the tip of the lobe. Desire flowed through the blood in
her veins, taking with it her resistance. Rumor whispered something low and seductive
in her ear as his wolf emerged taking control of the man.
“What did you say?” She stopped moving. The music blasted around
them, everyone else moving, dancing.
“I asked if you wanted to go find a room in the back.” His hands
moved down her back to slide over curvy hips, drawing them back against him as
he began to move again.
“Do you really think I’m the kind of girl that’s gonna hop in
the sack with you after knowing you a couple of hours?” Alex jerked out of his
embrace. Anger flowed through her taking control. “Think again, buster. I don’t
know what kind of girl you’re used to dating but I’m not a whore for the pack.”
“I know you want me, Alex. I can smell your desire.” He pulled
her roughly against him. His wolf was on edge, the smell of her arousal
overriding his common sense.
Alex could feel how excited he was. She didn’t need a nose for
that. “I do want you but that doesn’t mean I’m going to do anything about it
tonight.” Alex’s eyes flashed angrily conveying the fury within.
“You can’t blame me, Alex.” He leaned and sniffed her neck. “You
smell like you’re in heat. You know how it affects wolves.”
“So, this is my fault? Sorry Rumor, not a good enough excuse.”
Her hand moved from her waist, traveling slowly down between them. He felt the
point of the knife pressed up against the leather of his pants at the base of
his scrotum. “I’m only going to say this once.” A sudden chill hung on the edge
of her words. “Take your hands off me now. I won’t hesitate to neuter you.
Believe me I know how to do it and what I cut up I don’t fix. You’ll have to
find another doctor.”
Lorna Eames is a sucker for a happy ending. She writes
paranormal romance books because even witches and werewolves need love. When
not writing she is often found at a hockey game or exploring sunny Las Vegas
where she resides after transplanting herself there from northern Indiana.
She has two wonderful, supportive daughters, a wacky son-in-law and an
extremely skittish black cat. Her first book Witchy Woman is coming soon from
Crimson Frost Books.
