Hoping for a different answer this time. Read an excerpt from MEMORIES OF US #Romance #MMRomance #MPreg #PNR #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

Thank you to everyone who visited my blog last weekend! This weekend I'm sharing one last excerpt from MEMORIES OF US, an MPreg MM Shifter Romance that is part of my Shifter Towers series. It is available as part of a limited-time MPreg collection called SPECIAL DELIVERY: SUMMER. Next weekend, I'll switch back to VAWN, which is now available for pre-order.

I get my second covid vaccine this weekend, and I'm not sure how my body will react to this one, so I may be a little slow getting to your posts, but I will visit.

Set-up: Last weekend, Hayden realized Envi had returned, but he flew away instead of talking to him.

This weekend, I'm skipping ahead again. Hayden and Envi have reunited and spent time together, but Hayden believes that when Envi's cottage is sold, the singer will return to Saramto and forget about him again. Envi has other ideas. Enjoy! (This is in Hayden's point of view.)


“I am going back to Saramto. The cottage sold, and I have to get back and work on a project for another artist. But I want you to come with me this time. I don’t want to leave you behind.”

“I can’t.” The words blurted from my mouth before my heart could stop them.

“Why?” He flicked his finger under my chin and made me look up at him. “What’s keeping you here still?”

“My job.” I turned my head away, trying hard to think of other reasons. “And I’m not exactly fit for your lifestyle.”

**And here's a little more...**

He took my hands in his, slowly letting go of me. This was it. Our second last goodbye.

“You work at a job that doesn’t pay enough for you to take care of yourself, let alone a child. Let me take care of you. And it doesn’t matter to me what anyone else thinks.”

“But I can’t ask you to do that.” I didn’t want his pity, or for him to feel somehow obligated to take care of me. I’d make do on my own, somehow. I’d survived this long by myself.

“You haven’t asked me for anything, Hayden.” He brought my hands up to his lips and kissed each of them. “I’m asking you to come with me. Again. Only, this time, I’m hoping for a different answer.”



MEMORIES OF US

Part of SPECIAL DELIVERY: SUMMER

Envi gave up on the idea of claiming a mate long ago. Once upon a time he'd believed he'd found his perfect other half, but their dreams took them in different directions. Now, Envi dedicates his life to making music.

When his uncle passes away, and he is willed the man's cottage, Envi must return to the wetland park where he vacationed for much of his teenage years. The place where he crushed on the same omega for several summers before he became Envi's first love. But there's no way the omega he'd loved and lost still lives there. Or, maybe he does....

Memories of Us features an alpha jaguar shifter who never got over his first love, and a pregnant omega dragonfly shifter with no money and no one to turn to.

What will Hayden do when he sees Envi for the 1st time in 15 years? Read an excerpt from MEMORIES OF US #Romance #MMRomance #PNR #MPreg #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

Thank you to everyone who visited my blog last weekend! Just a couple more excerpts from MEMORIES OF US, an MPreg MM Shifter Romance that is part of my Shifter Towers series. It is available as part of a limited-time MPreg collection called SPECIAL DELIVERY: SUMMER. Then I'll switch back to VAWN, which is now available for pre-order.

Set-up: Last weekend, I introduced you to Hayden, Envi's first love.

This weekend, I'm skipping ahead again to where Hayden sees Envi for the first time in fifteen years. It is important to note that Hayden is in his dragonfly form when he sees him. Also, Envi's real name is Enrique Viani. Enjoy!


Switching direction, I headed to the cottage. From what I remembered, the place had five bedrooms, a long galley kitchen, and a huge deck. The last time I was there, the place was packed for one of many family get-togethers I’d attended. Shortly after that, a lot of family stopped coming for various reasons, including Enrique.

I wasn’t able to attend Salvatore’s funeral in the city and had no idea who’d inherited the property, but I kept buzzing forward.

The green Mercedes SUV parked out front made me a little confident that whoever had arrived was supposed to be there. If someone was looking to steal furniture left behind, they’d likely have something bigger to take more, or a vehicle that didn’t stand out so much.

Zooming around the perimeter, I didn’t see anyone outside. But as I reached the front of the house, I noticed the screen door opening. Out walked Enrique.

**That's ten, and here are a few more...**

I flew straight up, feeling my heart beat hard in my thorax. It had been so long, and he looked as good as ever. I much preferred him in the faded jeans and cream button-down he wore than the flashy outfits he donned when he was Envi, showing so much bare skin to the world.

I couldn’t stay. He’d recognize this form as soon as he spotted me. And I didn’t want to talk to him. Not when he’d only leave again. What did I have to offer anyway? I wasn’t young anymore, and was carrying another man’s baby. Yet another alpha who’d left me.

Meet Hayden, Envi's first love, in this excerpt from MEMORIES OF US #Romance #MMRomance #MPreg #LGBTQ #PNR #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

Thank you to everyone who visited my blog last weekend! This weekend, I'm sharing another excerpt from MEMORIES OF US. It is an MPreg MM Shifter Romance that is part of my Shifter Towers series. It is available as part of a limited-time MPreg collection called SPECIAL DELIVERY: SUMMER.

Set-up: Last weekend, Envi was getting ready to leave for his summer vacation, and remembering his first love whom he'd met at the place he is going.

This weekend, I'm skipping to the next chapter to show you what Envi's first love is up to. I'd like you to meet Hayden. This is in Hayden's point of view. Enjoy!


I waved to the last of the tourists before twisting and stretching my back. It never used to bother me this much, but now I was not only carrying a heavy knapsack on my back, but also a baby in the front. Only four months along, I still had over half of my pregnancy to go. But, I’d definitely started feeling the changes to my body. My stomach had gotten bigger, and my feet and hands swelled the moment I started work. My back ached. A lot. By the end of every workday, I was exhausted. And the scent of chicken made me want to gag. I’d been lucky, though, to have avoided any morning sickness.

**That's ten, and here are a few more...**

I heaved my knapsack back on and headed toward the tiny cabin I rented. A kitchen, bathroom, and one bedroom. Not much space at all. It was fine for me, but I had no idea how I was going to manage when my baby came. That is, if I decided to keep them.

I sighed, feeling the now familiar clench of my chest. I wanted to be a father. I really did. But, I wanted what was best for my baby more than anything. And I didn’t know if I could afford to give my baby the life they deserved. Not with my measly earnings. I could only hope for some miracle to come along. I rolled my eyes. Yeah, right. Even when good things happened to me, they never lasted.

Envi is trying ignore memories of him in this excerpt from MEMORIES OF US #Romance #MMRomance #MPreg #PNR #SpecialDelivery #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

Thank you to everyone who visited my blog last weekend! This weekend, I'm sharing an excerpt from MEMORIES OF US. It is an MPreg MM Shifter Romance that is part of my Shifter Towers series. But, it is now available as part of a limited-time MPreg Anthology called SPECIAL DELIVERY: SUMMER.

Set-up: Last weekend, Envi was getting ready to start his first summer vacation in a while. He's heading to Riekahae National Wetland Park, to his uncle's cottage where he spent his summers as a teenager.

This weekend, I'm skipping several sentences to where Envi is at home dealing with memories about his vacation destination that have come back to haunt him. Enjoy!


I unlocked the door with my key fob, then went inside, finding the place as uninviting as ever. No designer or amount of money could ever make it feel like home to me. Home meant people, and my place definitely lacked that. Though I’d never met anyone I wanted to make a home with. Not since…. Well, I couldn’t let my mind go there. That person was in the past, and I wasn’t about to run into him anytime soon. We’d gone our separate ways and moved on long ago.

I slipped off my shoes, set my bag on the hook and my keys in the dish before heading to the kitchen for a glass of wine. I needed to forget him. 

**That's ten, and here are a few more...**

I had, though. Long ago. Took all those memories of our time together and locked them away in the back of my mind. When I’d learned of my uncle’s passing, and my inheritance, those memories broke the lock and made themselves known once again. We’d first met when I’d been staying at the cottage the summer before I turned thirteen. And spent several summers as friends, and the last two as boyfriends.

My chest grew tight, and my throat felt as if it were about to close. Shit, I was desperate for that glass of wine now. Maybe a few. No. I still required the ability to drive in the morning. But I needed to forget right now.

Envi is going on vacation! Read an #excerpt from MEMORIES OF US #ShifterTowers #Romance #MPreg #MLM #PNR #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

Thank you to everyone who visited my blog last weekend! This weekend, I'm sharing an excerpt from MEMORIES OF US. It is an MPreg MM Shifter Romance that is part of my Shifter Towers series. But, it is releasing as part of an MPreg Summer Anthology called SPECIAL DELIVERIES: SUMMER.

Set-up: Last weekend, I introduced you to Envi through Ash's point of view in HIS OMEGA ON STAGE. MEMORIES OF US takes place a couple years later when Ash knows Envi a little bit more. 

Here's an excerpt from the beginning of MEMORIES OF US in Envi's point of view. Enjoy!


“Have a good night, Darnell.” I waved to the head of my security team as I got out of the company Palisade. “See you in a couple of weeks.”

The lion shifter nodded with a smile. “Enjoy your time off. But, if you need my help while you’re in that swamp, don’t be afraid to call.”

I chuckled. “I’ll keep that in mind. But I don’t think anyone in that part of the country will even know who I am.” I may have spent the summers of my teenage years at a cottage in the Riekahae National Wetland Park, but I doubted anyone from that time in my life still lived there. It seemed like so long ago.

Envi is getting his own story, but get to know him first in this excerpt from HIS OMEGA ON STAGE #Romance #MLM #MPreg #PNR #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

I missed last weekend, as I wasn't sure how I would feel after getting my first Covid-19 vaccine, and I also watched two digital online concerts. I took it very easy last weekend. But, I'm back with a new excerpt for you!

I'm going to switch stories for a bit. Both VAWN and MEMORIES OF US will be coming out soon, but I don't know the exact due dates. Memories of Us is another Shifter Towers stories, so a Gay MPreg Paranormal Romance. It is Envi's story, and it will be part of an anthology releasing soon. But, I'm actually going to share a snippet from HIS OMEGA ON STAGE, the story were Envi is introduced in person for the first time. 

Set-up: Ash (AI), TK, and Envi are on tour together. After their first tour stop, they are having dinner with each other and a lot of their crew. This is in Ash's point of view. Enjoy!


Envi arrived a short time later, heading to the back corner of the room with his phone pressed to his ear. Though the jaguar alpha was nice, and always helped me out when I asked, he was a private person. Very few people knew anything about his personal life, and I wasn’t one of them. I had no idea if he had a family or lived alone. Though my apartment was in the same building as his, I rarely saw him away from work, and never with anyone else.

TK, on the other hand, came down to my apartment, or invited Jun and I up to his penthouse at least once a week. So, I wasn’t surprised when he entered the banquet room, talking to his family on video chat. I didn’t see Jun with him, but I didn’t have time to ask where he was. TK plopped onto the chair beside me and shoved his phone in front of me. “Look, it’s Ash. Say hi!”



HIS OMEGA ON STAGE
Shifter Towers book four

Jun
For leopard cat shifter, Jun, being the rogue alpha in high school hadn’t helped him as an adult. Though he sometimes believed he was ready to find a mate, past experiences taught him that those he loves eventually leave him. So, he protects his heart by seeing omegas looking for nothing more than a one-night stand. Until he runs into someone from his past.

Ash
As the first omega signed to Adan Records, AI is anxious for the release of his debut album. Being a leopard cat shifter instead of an actual leopard like the rest of his family has always made him feel small and insignificant. But now he’s about to shine bright in front of the world, all on his own, without an alpha by his side. He doesn’t need one, and definitely doesn’t have time for one. Though when he runs into someone from his past who knows him as Ash, he wants to give this alpha all of his attention.

On Stage
But with all the problems that fame brings, will Ash be able to make a relationship work? Will Jun fight for the omega he’s sure is his fated mate? Or will they let each other slip away, believing what they have isn’t enough?

The leopard cats will play. Read a snippet from HIS OMEGA ON STAGE #Shifter #PNR #Romance #MPreg #Omegaverse #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

Thank you to all those who visited last weekend! I've been sharing snippets from the fourth book in my Shifter Towers series, HIS OMEGA ON STAGE. Like all the other books in this series, it is an MM paranormal romance. This is the last snippet from this story. In January, I will start sharing from my upcoming release, DEMON ON JACKSON STREET.

Set-up: In last weekend's snippet, things started to heat up between Ash and Jun. And while things were finally heading in the right direction between them, they still had many bumps in the road ahead of them, including paparazzi, medical issues, unemployment, and family issues. At that point, there was still over half the book to go.

This weekend, I'm going to end with a cute snippet, where Jun and Ash are in their shifted forms, playing as leopard cats. They are at TK's beach house, where they have a little more privacy than in the city. Enjoy! (In Ash's point of view)


I raced across the lawn, trying to get away from Jun, though I knew he was much faster than me. Feeling his sudden weight on my back end, I stumbled before we rolled together through the grass. As soon as we stopped, he pinned me down, his teeth digging into my neck. I pushed him off with my front paws then turned over and bit at his tail. He spun around and chomped into my side. He didn’t have a good grip, so I managed to get away. Spotting the garden pond up ahead, I bolted for it then leaped into the water. Behind me, I heard Jun sneeze. He didn’t come in, only batted water at me as he tried to smack me with his paw.

I splashed and rolled in the water for a bit before leaping out and catching Jun by surprise. We tumbled over the rocks and back onto the grass.

**That's eleven, and here's a little more for your reading pleasure.**

I jumped on Jun, but he lay on his side, no longer playing. Was he done? We’d been out in the sun for a while, having fun in the privacy of TK’s beach house. Arriving last night after both working full days, we’d been too tired to do much of anything, except cuddle in bed while talking, until we fell asleep. We’d slept in, too, something I hadn’t done in several weeks. And then after lunch, we’d come out here to play in the yard in our shifted forms.

I circled Jun then chewed on his ear to see if I could get a reaction out of him. He swatted me away before stretching his legs. So, I shifted back to my human form then ran my hand down his sleek, spotted body. As both a leopard cat and a human, he was bigger and stronger than me, but so very gentle. When we played in our shifted forms, he never used his full strength on me.

When I was in high school, I’d always been told to stay away from him, yet was never given a valid reason as to why. We grew up only a couple of blocks from each other, though my brother liked to pretend we were bused in. He had a whole morning routine to not get found out until he had a solid group of friends and then didn’t care. They thought it was cool he came from a rough neighborhood. Though that never stopped Nex’s hatred of Jun. Not once did my brother realize the more he told me to stay away from Jun, the more I wanted him to be my future alpha.

Now, we were dating, and the possibility of him being my alpha was even closer. I petted him some more, enjoying his contented purrs. Then, in the middle of running my hand across his silky, soft fur, he began to shift.

Jun's walls crumble when it comes to Ash. Read a snippet from HIS OMEGA ON STAGE #Romance #MPreg #PNR #MLM #Omegaverse #8Sunday


Hello and welcome to another Weekend Writing Warriors post!

Thank you to all those who visited last weekend! I've been sharing snippets from the fourth book in my Shifter Towers series, HIS OMEGA ON STAGE. Like all the other books in this series, it is an MM paranormal romance. Just two more snippets from this story until I start sharing from DEMON ON JACKSON STREET in January.

Set-up: In last weekend's snippet, Ash kissed Jun then put his head back on his shoulder like nothing happened.

This weekend, I'm continuing from where I left off. Things start to get steamy. Not graphic though. You can read the book for that. Enjoy! (In Jun's point of view)


I shook my head in shock, sure I hadn’t imagined it. “Are you really going to act like you didn’t just do that?” Sure, I’d told Ash that we should be friends rather than anything else, but I’d thought about him too much during the three weeks of no communication. And now that we were hanging out, I’d started to question whether I could remain nothing more than friends with an omega my leopard cat actually approved of, and whose scent comforted me, yet drove me crazy at the same time. We were both leopard cats. Perhaps there was a reason we kept ending up in the same place.

Ash squeezed my thigh before he chuckled. “After the kiss in the elevator, I’ve wanted to do that, but never found the right time. So, I took a chance.”

“Oh, so I guess you don’t want any more.”

**That's ten, but here's a little more for your reading pleasure.**

Because I suddenly wanted so much more, and didn’t know if I could remain on the couch with him before I found myself in a very uncomfortable situation. I couldn’t lie to myself. I yearned to be Ash’s alpha. Maybe not right away, but I needed to know if that was still a possibility.

He answered immediately, but not with words. Letting go of my thigh, he swung a leg over mine until he straddled me. He wrapped his arms around the back of my neck and rested his forehead on mine. “I will never say no to more kisses from you.”

Grabbing his hips, I pulled him closer and joined our lips together. His were so soft, and, while he seemed hesitant, maybe a bit inexperienced, he was quick to catch on. When he pulled away with a gasp, I continued to kiss down his jaw, to his neck. He tasted just as sweet as his scent.

He tilted his head back, giving me access to more of his bare skin. “You don’t know how many times I’ve dreamed of this moment.”



HIS OMEGA ON STAGE

Jun
For leopard cat shifter, Jun, being the rogue alpha in high school hadn’t helped him as an adult. Though he sometimes believed he was ready to find a mate, past experiences taught him that those he loves eventually leave him. So, he protects his heart by seeing omegas looking for nothing more than a one-night stand. Until he runs into someone from his past.
