Yup, it’s a new month and I’m still here with teases of In Pain and Blood. I’m so very, very close to the end. The rest of this month will be pieces from chapter 14, one of the raunchier chapters currently only available in full to those signed up to my spellster series exclusive newsletter.
Rainbow Snippets is a Facebook Group where people post six sentence pieces of their LGBTQ+ novels.
Blurb: When a routine inspection goes awry, Dylan is left unleashed and alone. Afraid he’ll become prey for the King’s Hounds, he struggles to make his way back to the only safety he’s ever known. Or is it?
In this bit, Authril has just entered Dylan’s tent when she’s supposed to be on watch…
She stood there, her hands on her hips and her legs planted. “We’ll be fine, but you said things a few days back that suggested you might wish to sleep with me.” Those gorgeous sea-green eyes roamed the tent, the floor. Everywhere but directly at him. “I’m here to take you up on that offer.” That gaze fell on him. Hot and wanting.
Dylan stared at her. His mouth moved, but nothing came out. This was the last thing he would’ve expected from the woman.
“Are you still willing or are you content standing there catching flies?”
“I… Yes.” Realising the ambiguity of his answer, he tried to make himself clearer. “That is to say— I mean… now?”
Do follow the link above, or check out the Snippet Sunday Folk, to see other snippets.
He doesn’t sound like “now” is a good time, LOL.

Haha! That’s what you get for being a dork and flirting with people, they get the idea that you want to sleep with them.

I can almost hear a squeak in his voice. LOL I think he passed “flustered” and went directly to “panic.”

Authril’s a pretty confident woman around men, it’s other women where she comes undone.
As for what he could say… “yes” would be a good option.

That’s the sort of reply I give all the time and then have to explain what I said ‘yes’ to. Still, it’s kind of understandable he got a bit tongue-tied there. 😀

🙂 That sort of ambiguous reply is usually deliberate around here.
