Then it dawned on Kayla what was going to happen. In a moment of calm, she saw it clearly.
Dirk doesn’t know who the changeling is. But if he has sex with Tara, so that he can be healed, it won’t work. Then he’ll know the changeling is Tara.
“Please,” Tara begged him, turning her face away. “Not like this.”
“It’s time for you to grow up, little sister,” Dirk said. He tugged out his penis, which was as dark and ugly as a club. “Now open your mouth, damn you. You’re going to give me a nice, long cocksucking before I fuck you.”
Kayla straightened up. It was now or never.
“Hey, Blackstone,” Kayla called as she stepped out where he could see her. “I’m the one you want. I’m the changeling. Let her go, and I’m yours.”

Outcast
(Forever Faire Book Two)
Excerpt
The door to the tack room suddenly opened with a squeal of hinges, and a shower of tiny white stars cascaded down to bounce around the floorboards. Ryan stepped inside and kicked the door shut before he finished transforming.
“We are not done,” he told her, his eyes glowing so brightly his gaze seemed to burn into her head.
Kayla set aside the blankets and folded her arms. “You touch me, or use your magick to make me want it, and I swear to God I will find a way to hurt you. Even if it takes me the rest of my dumbass mortal life.”
“I don’t have to touch you.” He swept up his hand, and bridles began to fall off their brackets. “Nor does my magick.”
Kayla felt something curl around her ankle, and glanced down to see two coils of rope encircling her boots. Regret finally seeped through her fury, for despite his thick skull and utter unconcern for her feelings, this was Ryan. Ryan, whose passion had taken her apart and rebuilt her. Ryan, who had made her feel hope…and this sick, twisted love that wanted her to go along with his horrible plan.
“Please, don’t do this.” She hated how pitiful her voice sounded. “I can’t take anymore, Ryan.”
“’Tis the same for me, my lovely one.” He flicked his fingers, and the buttons on her jacket fell off and rolled away. He bent down, not touching her at all as he breathed in. “I see you and it seizes me inside, with the gilt talons of your eyes. The dark satin of your hair peace-bonds my heart. I am bound to you by every blink of your lashes, by every crystal ring of your laughter.”
He had her bound by the wrists and ankles, and when the leather and rope tugged her back against the shelves of curry combs, Kayla didn’t fight them. Some perverse part of her wanted to see just how far he would take this.
“I dream of us now, every night.” Ryan unbuttoned his own tunic, stripping it off to reveal his broad, beautifully muscled chest. “In the cabin, in the snow, high atop some icy waterfall. We are naked and the world dwindles as we reach to each other. You whisper my name just before my hand covers your naked breast, and then I awake, alone and cold and hard. So hard.”
Kayla’s jacket simply evaporated, leaving her in her tunic and hose. She kept her gaze locked with his as he stripped off his boots and trousers. His pale white skin took on a subtle glow as he straightened, naked and fully erect. Only then did she feel the rest of her costume peel away from her skin, leaving her in her underwear. She could feel her panties clinging to her sex, which had grown damp and throbbed urgently now.
Ryan moved close enough for his body heat to sink into her skin, and put his mouth beside her ear. “I never have to touch you for you to make me like iron, my lovely one. Then all I must do is what is necessary to find peace.”
The whisper of his breath against her ear and cheek made her swallow a moan. “What do you do?”
He stepped back, watching her face as he reached down and wrapped his hand around his engorged shaft. “This.” Slowly he began stroking the length of his cock, his arm flexing and his chest heaving as he dragged in more air. “I remember how it was in the cabin, that night we first had each other. Touching you. Putting my mouth on you. Fucking you.”
Kayla turned her face away, but listening to his hand pumping made her clit pulse, and her nipples pucker into tight beads. “Is this why you tied me up? To torture me?”
“No.” He murmured something else, and light filled the room.
When Kayla’s dazzled eyes cleared, she saw Ryan bound by rope and rein to the shelves, and she was standing where he had been. Her panties and bra were gone, too. She should have run for the door, but her feet took her to him. “I think that spell backfired, my man.”
“This is how you have me.” He looked down at the full, straining bulb of his erection. “And I can find no relief from it. Not even when I use my hand and pretend it is you.” He lifted his head and smiled wanly at her. “Why should tonight be any different?”

ENJOY THIS BOOK?
You can make a big difference.
Reviews are the most powerful tools in my arsenal when it comes to getting attention for my books. Much as I’d like to, I don’t have the financial muscle of a New York publisher. I can’t take out full pages ads in the newspaper or put posters on the subway.
(Not yet, anyway.)
But I do have something much more powerful and effective than that, and it’s something that those publishers would kill to get their hands on.
A committed and loyal group of readers.
Honest reviews of my books help bring them to the attention of other readers.
If you’ve enjoyed this book I would be very grateful if you could spend just five minutes leaving a review—it can be as short as you like.
Thank you so much!
