KISS OF THE INCUBUS
by C.J. Harwin
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
An incubus who feeds off the sexual desires of others, Roth de Lis has
never been denied the pleasure of a woman’s body...until now. Lilah, once a
warrior maiden in the service of a goddess, languishes on Earth after being
cast out from the slopes of Mount Olympus.
Lilah
will do anything to return home to Olympus, including betraying Roth. As she
spins her web of lies, Roth begins a slow, wicked seduction that eventually
threatens to consume them both. But when Lilah’s deceit comes to light, will
their torrid love affair be able to overcome a pact with the darkest of gods?
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
EXCERPT
The moonlight made Lilah hum with power, giving her
abilities a much-needed boost. She glanced at Roth, still out on the ground.
She didn’t want to reveal her bow and arrows to him, lest he guess where she
got them. Anything that gave him any insight into her past was a threat to her
future. But there was no other way out. Lilah stilled and summoned her bow. It
sprang from her grasp, a wisp of silver growing into the curved tips and taut
string. It resonated with power in her hands as she pulled a similarly
effervescent arrow from her quiver.
The fury’s wings, translucent and covered in a fine
black fur, flapped to keep her hovering above the ground. Lilah noticed the
fury examining the markings on her neck. She pointed at Lilah and said, “Not
you, servant of Artemis. My master wants the incubus.”
“The incubus is mine. If you want him, you’ll have
to go through me first.” The glow of the moon and her instinct made her ready,
spoiling even, for this fight. It had been far too long.
“So be it,” the fury rasped before splaying her
claws and diving for Lilah. Its battle cry pierced the night.
Lilah rolled to the left and let her arrow fly,
punching through the creature’s wing and soaring off into the night. The fury
let out a shriek that had blood running from Lilah’s ears. But she didn’t care.
She was in her element.
