Excerpt
“Settle down, little one. No one is
going to hurt you here.”
His gaze darted to the hallway Chris had
disappeared down, and he let out a low rumble.
I smiled and answered his silent
question. “Not even him. He will come around.” After he’d got
over having a werewolf in the house and came to terms with the idea
that werewolves were real, that was.
“Trust me. Now settle down.” Though
keeping my tone calm, I put as much force as I could muster behind
the words.
I wasn’t a shifter, and the animal had
no reason to obey me. But power was power, no matter where it came
from, and I was praying it would be enough. Otherwise, I was screwed.
The wolf growled, shifting his center of
gravity lower down his back as he prepared to jump.
I was familiar enough with werewolves to
know they reacted to strength and dominance, so I tried again,
putting more of that behind my words. “Enough!”
The growl subsided without dying
completely, and the eyes holding mine became more alert, the anxiety
in them half-replaced by curiosity.
“That’s it. Settle down.”
The wolf whimpered and crouched until
his belly rested on the floor. He regarded me carefully, his upper
lip still curled in a threat. He didn’t trust me. Not yet. The
feeling was mutual.
I wasn’t his alpha, nor did I want to
be, but I needed him calm
and obedient. My heart, which beat loudly when I first faced the
animal, had lowered to a more normal rhythm. Sweat soaked through my
T-shirt, and I was willing to bet money the wolf could smell the fear
on me. I held his gaze, bringing up even more power.
Calm down, damn it!
The wait stretched on; a nerve wrecking
staring contest. I didn’t move, barely breathing. Slowly, the
wolf’s body went slack, the lip uncurling. The pupils shrank back
to normal size, for a wolf anyway, but some of the angst remained.
“That’s it. Good boy.”
One of his ears flicked, head tilting to
the side.
“I need to check how bad you’re
hurt.”
The wolf tried to crawl farther back,
clearly not happy with my suggestion.
“No, I mean it. You’re hurt. I need
to see what is going on.”
The growl was back in his throat.
“Enough!” I used power to put
strength behind the command. “Shift!”
His eyes widened, but the force behind
the words could not be ignored. He tried to fight me, I could see it
on his face, but I kept my gaze and the stream of power steady,
waiting for him to submit.
Eventually, the tension left his body
and he stretched out on the floor. The pupils changed slightly, their
color softening to a warm brown. The fur rippled as the muscles
beneath rearranged themselves. The shoulders widened, the neck
thickened, and the muzzle retracted.
About the
author
Born
in Romania, land of the Iele and Vlad the Impaler, AIMEE BRISSAY has
spent all her life surrounded by stories. She has ridden side by side
with d’Artagnan and The Three Musketeers to retrieve the Queen’s
diamonds, set sail on the Erasmus in search of the Japans, fell in
love with Rhett Butler and roamed the Wild West alongside Old
Shatterhand. She has walked in the footsteps of the Olympian Gods and
searched for Zalmoxis’ sanctuary in the Carpathians. In her mind,
she’s never been the damsel in distress but rather the knight in
shiny armor fighting for a cause. Aimee Brissay loves each and every
one of these characters with a passion, and has always had a soft
spot for the men-on-men fellows.
With a background like this, turning to writing was no surprise. Aimee discovered Men-on-Men erotica early in life and has never looked back. After that first story, she devoured all the books she could find. And when she ran out, she decided to write her own. Aimee Brissay has over 10 stories published, varying from contemporary to fantasy and BDSM, men-on-men, men-on-men-on-men or on-women, and anything in between.
She
can write anywhere, even in a crowded room or a busy subway station,
but she loves solitude. When she’s not at her evil day job or
she’s not torturing her characters in her latest WIP, she can be
found writing or playing with her cats. Or her newly adopted
dog, because 5 cats are just not enough.
She
welcomes messages from readers and promises to answer all of them as
soon as possible, though that can mean anything from one hour to a
month.
