  Tears pooled and she fought them back with a smile. "'Tis not just you who are foolish at times. I too act before I think and make stupid mistakes, Braedon." He rubbed her back. "Aye. 'Tis true you are a bit high-spirited, Trista. You will need to learn your place."

  She smiled and looked up at him again, knowing this time he was teasing. "Is that so." He grinned. "Aye. I fear there might be...discipline in your future."

  "I see. I will have to learn to tolerate such...discipline, then."

  "However," he continued, "you will also have to teach me about these amazing powers of love that you seem to possess, for I have failed in the past in recognizing their strength. And for that I am sorry." This time the tears pooled and fell as her heart filled with the enormity of her feelings for him. 'Twas not every man who could admit his mistakes, or even admit his feelings. "I love you, Braedon, King of Greenbriar."

  "I love you too, Trista. Your love is what gave me the strength to fight the wizards. I have never witnessed such courage as I saw from you that night. You were willing to give up your life for Donny. I know many men who are not as courageous as you."

  Pride swelled within her. "Thank you." She kissed him, pouring her love and magic into his heart, hoping he could feel it, could sense it. From the way his eyes glittered like sapphires, it seemed he did.

  "I cannot promise to always behave," she said, reaching down to grasp his cock, "but I will never let your life become dull and routine."

  His cock lurched to life under her hand and he winked. "I can tolerate a little misbehaving now and then, my faerie."

  About the Author

  In April 2003, Ellora's Cave foolishly offered me a contract for my first erotic romance and I haven't shut up since. My writing is an addiction for which there is no cure, a disease in which strange characters live in my mind, all clamoring for their own story. I try to let them out one by one, as mixing snarling werewolves with a bondage and discipline master can be very dangerous territory. Then again, unusual plotlines offer relief from the demons plaguing me.

  In my world, well-endowed, naked cabana boys do the vacuuming and dishes, little faeries flit about dusting the furniture and doing laundry, Wolfgang Puck fixes my dinner and I spend every night engaged in wild sexual abandon with a hunky alpha. Okay, the hunky alpha part is my real life husband and he keeps my fantasy life enriched with extensive "research". But Wolfgang won't answer my calls, the faeries are on strike and my readers keep running off with the cabana boys.
