The story about Atriedes, brother to Daemon in
Deadly Liaisons. I have started it and it is 20,000 words into the making, called Dangerous Liaisons.
He resisted the dark huntress…now he’ll use all his powers to make her his own.
Tezra Campbell treads a dangerous line between her job as a telepathic investigator for the Hunter Council and her alternate life as a renegade. Beneath her cool, professional exterior lies a dark obsession to find the rogue vampire who murdered her parents ten years ago and left her sister a traumatized shell. An obsession that drives her to use herself as bait.
Daemon, former bastard prince of Scotland and now head of the American vampire clans, sees Tezra as a danger to herself and to his people. Especially if the killer vampire takes her bait. Concerned his own brother might be accused of the crime, Daemon takes Tezra into custody, intending to keep her out of the way so he can find the killer himself.
Things don’t work out the way either planned. The more she fights him with her telepathic powers, the more she stirs up his sexual bloodlust—the kind only a mate can cool. And Tezra begins to wonder…is her desire for him real, or just a way to use Daemon to find the murderer?
It’s a deadly game they both aim to win—even while they try to keep their hearts intact.
Warning: Romance with a bite!
And: The Ancient Fae
Work in progress. Ritasia's story is at 28,000! 4th book in the World of Fae series.
I have the title written. :) I had more, but lost it. *sigh*
And another Highland historical. A Highlander to Love. 12,000 written.
And The High Elf, sequel to
The Shadow Elf. 2,000 words, I think. Eloria is tasked with the job of bringing Persephonice back to the ship...but what if she can't find her on the elf planet? Or what if she does, and Persephonice doesn't want to return with her? Eloria's commander happens to be Persephonice's father. What if he's so angry if Eloria doesn't accomplish her mission, he abandons her on the primitive planet too?
Persephonice is given the mission of distracting the shadow elves who are bound to learn what is blocking their water source before they discover a space ship is sitting in the middle of their river. That's how all the trouble begins.
Persephonice is an overseer--an observer and recorder of information about inhabitants of civilized worlds. Only she's lost her lifemate and cannot be an overseer without one. She's given a second chance if she can prove she's worthy if she can survive an inhospitable planet inhabited by elves and other mythical creatures she's only read about, very little of which is known of them except that they constantly battle amongst themselves and are not civilized enough to safely observe.
The shadow elf, Dracolin, a warrior given the task of learning what is blocking their water source, doesn't expect to find the most unusual creature he's ever encountered--a red-haired, green-eyed land-bound mermaid. That's only the beginning. She understands and can speak his language, falls off cliffs without injuring herself, and swims like a mermaid--without the fishtail.
Everyone is intrigued with her--except some fear her uniqueness and want to destroy her. That is the problem with observing uncivilized worlds.
Of course, Tom's story in Silence of the Wolves, about 20,000 words.
The Jaguar shifter 2 story, the beginning.
And I've been thinking about the new Highland wolf story. Cearnach keeps bugging me...some woman runs him off the road and...
You see sometimes that's how it all begins....
And I've got the beginning of the Emerald Isle of Mists, from the trilogy of the Magic of Inherian.
Scepter of Salvation
The problem is I get stuck with a conflict or plot, and so I play around with another story, so that I can at least feel I'm getting something accomplished. And by doing so, I do get more of the other stories written. Then when I go back to the one I was stuck on, I often can work some more on it. :)
Plus the scenes begin to pop in my head for the various stories. And I HAVE to write them down or I'll forget them. Then what happens is I can't quit writing on the story, and voila, the story is on it's way. :)
Now, if I wasn't working full time, I could write during more hours of the day!!!
Don't you ever get distracted from what you're doing? Start one project and see something else that needs to be done, begin working on that, and neglect the other?
I know it's not just me! :)
Have a totally terrific Sunday!
I've ordered print copies of The Dark Fae so I'm ready to give some away at guest blog posts as soon as they come in! Woohoo!
