Happy Sunday. Welcome to Sexy Snippets and Weekend Writing Warriors, where authors share 7-8 lines/sentences of a book or work in progress. For those who have been visiting, the hero won a kiss from the heroine, but refuses to claim it. He’s milking the anticipation game for all its worth. She’s a clan alpha, so control is part of the game. Take a peek.
“Now, you owe me two kisses.” He lazily slid his thumb over her lower lip. His scent, laced with desire, made her dizzy.
“Are you going to claim them?” She didn’t recognize her own voice, it was so husky, so needy.
“One, now. The second when you’re naked.”
“I say when…”
“I do.”

Blurb:
On the night of the full moon, any male shifter can call the Trials to race against Talia Orion, alpha of the united wolf-eagle clans. Clan law requires Talia to marry the winner of the Trials, a grueling twenty-mile marathon through dangerous, rugged terrain. Talia, the product of an unhappy, political alliance masquerading as a marriage, trains obsessively to ensure she avoids her parents’ fate. Her newest vampire trainer, Hayden Mitchell, makes her powerful even as he knocks down her defenses, and finds his way into her heart. Hayden has loved Talia since the first moment he saw her. As the destined ruler of the vampire clan, he has another agenda to politically unite Talia’s clans with his own—what Talia fears most, and will never forgive him for.
