Quad McDaniel’s life changed forever the night he was
attacked by a wolf. Now, he turns furry every full moon. Avoiding red meat and
anything that makes him aggressive is his prime goal in life. But when his
convertible breaks down in some Podunk town, becoming the beast within is no
longer a choice. It’s instinctive.
Gypsy Govanivinch just wants to live a quiet life in Trinity
Valley, running his roadhouse tavern. He doesn’t need an overly aggressive
shifter coming into his town and messing with his peaceful little world, no matter
how gorgeous the man looked.
Life never asked Quad or Gypsy what they wanted. It simply
gave them what they needed, whether they agreed or not. Fate brought them
together but it’s up to Quad and Gypsy to stay alive long enough to appreciate
what they’ve been given. And when others work to prevent that, fighting
together might be the only chance they have of surviving.

STORY EXCERPT
Quad McDaniel threw his cell phone into the passenger seat
and banged his head repeatedly against the steering wheel of his black Mercedes
SL600 Roadster convertible. He couldn’t believe that his brand new car had
broken down. He had just bought the damn thing two days ago.
So much for the perfect car!
And now his cell phone wouldn’t get any reception. Could his
day get any worse?
He climbed from his car, slamming the door closed hard
behind him in frustration. Looking around, he couldn’t see much in the dark,
except for some glowing lights off in the distance. Resigned to his fate, Quad
locked the car door and began walking toward the light.
When he reached the parking lot, he gazed up at the tavern
sign…GG’s Roadhouse. Well, damn, he was in redneck hell. The multitude of
pickup trucks and motorcycles in the gravel parking lot should have told him
this.
He heard loud music spill into the parking lot when a man
dressed in tight jeans and a sleeveless flannel shirt walked outside. Quad knew
his day wasn’t going to get any better when he watched the guy climb into his
souped-up truck. He could only pray that there was a pay phone inside.
Like those exist anymore.
He walked into the two-story roadhouse, stopping briefly
right inside the doorway to look around the interior. He was actually surprised
at how nice the place seemed. The first floor of the large room seemed to be
broken into different sections. To the right of him was a large wooden bar that
ran almost the entire length of the east wall with several intimate tables near
the far end.
Directly in front of him was a large wooden dance floor that
went all the way to the far wall. The ceiling directly above the dance floor
was two stories high with a wooden beamed ceiling and a large mirror that went
from the first floor to the balcony on the second floor. To the front right
corner of the dance floor was a DJ booth and karaoke setup. He could see
several people dancing on the dance floor to the loud beat of the southern rock
music playing.
Looking toward the second floor, he could see that it was in
the shape of a square with the balcony overlooking the dance floor in the
middle. There were also several tables and booths on the second floor, as well
as pool tables. A few of those tables were being used by bikers and rednecks.
On each side of the dance floor on the back wall was a set
of double doors leading out onto a wooden deck overlooking a clear blue lake.
The second floor had double doors that he assumed led out to a balcony covering
the deck.
Looking up the wide, wooden stairway to the left of the bar,
he could see that directly above him must be the management offices, and below
them, the restrooms. Just beyond the bathrooms, he could hear sounds coming
from what he assumed was a working kitchen.
All in all, it was a pretty sweet setup. If this place were
in his neighborhood, it would be an upper class restaurant. He could envision
it with upscale clientele, waiters dressed in white shirts and ties, and a top
class chef. It would make a lot of money. Too bad it was in the middle of
nowhere, filled with rednecks and leather-clad bikers.
Quad strode toward the bar and took a seat at one of the
vacant bar stools. He lifted his hand to signal the bartender and lost his
train of thought. The sexiest man he'd ever laid eyes on stood at the other end
of the bar.
He couldn’t have been more than five foot six and maybe a
whopping one hundred and forty-five pounds. The stranger wasn’t a skinny bean
poll like most of the twinks Quad knew. In fact, as far as he could tell, the
bartender had lean muscle in all the right places. The man also had a
seductive, wild beauty about him that called deeply to the primal alpha male in
Quad.
Wisps of tendrils escaped the silken mass of long, braided
snow-white hair and caressed the sides of his perfect high cheekbones. There
was both a delicacy and a strength in his face. Pale green eyes were ringed by
black lashes. His lips were full and rounded over even, white teeth, and smooth
skin glowed with golden undertones.
Shapely thighs and a firm ass tapered into long straight
legs. The man’s tight, faded blue jeans rode low on his hips. A ribbed, black
tank top barely covered him from his collarbone down to just above his
bellybutton. A thick, studded, black belt drew Quad’s attention to the man’s
tight, flat muscular abdomen.
Quad’s tongue almost fell out of his mouth when he spotted
the little piercing in the twink’s bellybutton, which was encircled with a
sunburst type tattoo. Oh, man, would he love to nibble on that.
A Celtic tattoo encircled one of the man’s smooth, left
arms. That made two tattoos that Quad could see. He wondered how many more the
gorgeous little man had. He would give almost anything to go on a treasure hunt
and find each and every one.
“What’ll it be, honey?” Mr. Sexy asked with a silky,
southern accent. His voice alone could mesmerize Quad. It was sexy and smooth,
like aged whiskey. He could listen to him talk all day long. Quad wondered
briefly if the man would sound the same during sex.
“Hey, honey, you just going to stare at me all day, or you
gonna order something?”
Quad just stared. He didn’t even blink when the little twink
waved a hand in front of his face. He was too busy envisioning what he wanted
to do to the man on any available flat surface.
“Honey, you okay?”
ADULT EXCERPT
“You smell tasty,” Quad groaned.
The smell alone affected his body. Quad’s cock was hard,
pressing against his jeans. Moving his hips, he rocked against Gypsy, and the
beautiful elf shivered as their erections touched. He preferred Gypsy like
this—soft and pliant. Quad didn’t like sparring with the other man with his
tongue. No, Quad had much better things he could think to do with his mouth
then argue back and forth with the elf.
Quad slowly leaned his head forward. He gave Gypsy plenty of
time to either turn his head or tell Quad to fuck off. When Gypsy merely
moistened his lips, Quad took that as a sign. He pressed his lips against
Gypsy’s. A jolt of electricity ran through his system and he stiffened. He’d
never felt something so powerful.
The kiss started out slowly, a gentle exploration, as they
both opened their mouths and their tongues touched, dancing. It didn’t take
long before the kiss became frantic and wild. Quad ran his hands down Gypsy’s
arms, touching the soft flesh. It was unlike anything he’d ever felt
before—smooth, hard granite. No other man possessed skin as supple as the elf.
Quad ran his hands under Gypsy’s shirt, outlining the hard plane of muscles
with his fingertips.
Gypsy turned his head, disconnecting their lips. “I don’t
want slow, wolf.”
Quad smiled wickedly. If the elf wanted hard and rough, he
was more than willing to oblige. Quad grabbed the collar of Gypsy’s shirt and
tore the material from the man’s body.
“That’s one thing I love about being supernatural.” Gypsy’s
eyes gleamed.
“What’s that?”
“We can be as rough as we want.” Gypsy grabbed hold of
Quad’s shirt. He mimicked Quad’s action, ripping his T-shirt wide open. It
proved how strong Gypsy truly was. He might not be carrying a lot of muscle,
but that didn’t mean anything. “Don’t hold back, wolf. I’m not some delicate
little human.” He ran his hands up Quad’s chest before tweaking his nipples.
“Fuck,” Quad breathed out.
He really liked this side of Gypsy.
Quad cupped Gypsy’s face with his hands and connected their
lips. He needed to taste Gypsy. The sweet scent filled his head, making him
drunk, and he wanted to taste it on his tongue. Gypsy wrapped his arms around
Quad’s waist as he melted into him, their bodies connecting. The sleek skin of
Gypsy’s chest felt cool against his hot skin, chilling the fire that ran
through Quad’s veins.
Quad growled when Gypsy’s tongue met his, swirling. Quad
moved one hand to the back of Gypsy’s head, holding the man in place while he
fucked his mouth with his tongue. He dropped his other hand to Gypsy’s ass, and
gripped one cheek. He pulled Gypsy closer and moved Gypsy’s body back and
forth, rubbing their cocks together. Gypsy moaned into Quad’s mouth. He started
moving his hips without Quad’s assistance.
Quad knew the kiss could go on and on. Already, he felt
addicted to Gypsy’s talented tongue. As the minutes ticked by, Quad knew it was
only a matter of time before he came in his pants. The only place he wanted to
come was with his shaft buried deep inside the elf’s ass.
He forced himself to pull back. Quad kissed Gypsy’s jaw. He
planted open-mouthed kisses down the man’s chest as he slowly dropped to his
knees before the beautiful elf. He ran his hands up and down Gypsy’s chest,
touching and caressing as he continued to kiss every square inch of skin he
could reach. There were so many things he wanted to do to Gypsy. He just hoped
there was enough time.
Quad gripped the elastic band of Gypsy’s pajama pants and
pulled the material down his legs. Gypsy’s hard cock pointed straight at Quad’s
mouth. Licking his lips, Quad gripped Gypsy’s waist, holding the man steady. He
stuck his tongue out and licked the bead of pre-cum glistening on the tip of
Gypsy’s dick.
“Good lord,” Gypsy whispered.
“Mmm…” The taste of Gypsy exploded on his tongue and Quad
knew he needed more, so much more. “I want to feel you wrapped tight around my
cock, baby.” He didn’t know where the endearment came from, but it felt right
to say. Quad wrapped his palm around Gypsy’s cock and the sweet elf bucked his
hips, fucking his hand. “Bed,” he growled.
He didn’t want to get started yet. He preferred to lay Gypsy
down before devouring the man. He wanted to spread Gypsy out on the mattress.
“Come here.” Quad led Gypsy to the bed. He laid the man
down. He stared at Gypsy, letting his eyes wonder as he drank the man in,
memorizing each curve. “You’re beautiful.”
“Thank you.” Gypsy smiled, as his cheeks pinkened.
Quad removed the rest of his clothes before joining his
soon-to-be lover on the bed. He’d prolonged things long enough. Situating
himself between Gypsy’s legs, Quad wrapped his hand around the base of his
shaft and his mouth around the tip.
“Fuck!” Gypsy shouted.
Quad swirled his tongue around the girth of Gypsy’s shaft as
he lowered his head, swallowing the man’s cock down his throat.
“Ah…ah…ah…” Erotic sounds spilled from Gypsy’s lips spurring
Quad on
Quad swallowed repeatedly, tightening his throat muscles. He
bobbed his head, taking the entire length into his mouth. Gypsy shoved his
fingers through Quad’s hair. He tightened his fist, holding the strands as he
started moving his hips, fucking Quad’s mouth. Quad opened wide, allowing Gypsy
to do whatever he wanted. The elf’s entire form was shaking, and Quad knew he
was getting close. He could easily recognize the signs
Gypsy’s breathing changed. “I’m gonna…” that was the only
warning he received before Gypsy came, shooting warm jets of cum across Quad’s
tongue and down his throat.
Slowly pulling back, Quad licked and kissed Gypsy’s shaft.
He lifted his eyes and stared at the elf. With his mouth open and cheeks
flushed, Gypsy was incredibly beautiful. It was an image Quad wouldn’t soon
forget
“I want you to fuck me.” Gypsy said as he started to turn
over onto his hands and knees. “The lube is in the bedside table.
“You’re a demanding little thing, aren’t you?” Quad teased
“I know what I want.” Gypsy looked over his shoulder. “And I
want your big dick in my ass.”
