-“Alex.” Bemused
frustration colored his tone.
I grinned. “I’m
taking a quick shower. I’m
gross. I need
to be clean.”
“You shouldn’t be doing that.” The door jingled. It wasn’t locked. “Alex!”
“I’m naked,” I warned.
Silence and then, “Is that supposed to make me not want to come
in there?”
Teaser #2
Seth chuckled, and then his mouth was
making its way to mine, and I opened for him. The edges of his hair tickled my
cheeks as the kiss deepened. His fingers drifted down the front of my blouse
and then they were sliding over the bare skin of my stomach. I wrapped my
leg around his, and we were moving together on the bed. His lips were
dancing all over my flushed skin as his hands slid down, fingers finding the
button on my jeans. A second later, there
was a knock on my door and a booming voice.“Alexandria?”
Seth stilled
above me, panting. “You have got to be freaking kidding me.”Leon knocked again. “Alexandria,
I know you’re in there.”
Dazed, I blinked several times. The
room slowly came back into focus as did Seth’s disgruntled expression. I almost
laughed, except I felt… off.“You better
answer him, angel, before he barges in here.”I tried, but failed. I took a deep
breath. “Yeah.”
I cleared my
throat.“Yeah, I’m in here.”
There was a pause. “Lucian is
requesting your presence immediately.” Another gap of silence followed.
“He is also requesting to see you, Seth.”
Seth frowned as the gleam is his eyes
faded. “How in the world does he know I’m in here?”
“Leon… just
knows.” I pushed at him weakly. “Get off.”
“I was trying to.” Seth rolled over,
running his hands down his face.
I scowled at him and sat up. A wave of dizziness swept
over me. My gaze moved from Seth to my curled hand. Slowly, I opened
it. Glowing in iridescent blue was a glyph that was shaped like a staple.
Both of my hands were marked. He leaned
over my shoulder.
“Hey, you got another one.”
I swung at him and missed by a mile. “You
did that on purpose.”
Seth shrugged as he straightened his
shirt. “You didn’t mind, now did you?”
“That’s not the point, you douchenozzle. I shouldn’t
have these.”
He glanced up, brows arched. “Look, I didn’t do it on purpose. I
have no idea how or why it happens. Maybe
it’s happening because it’s supposed to.”
“People are waiting,” Leon called from the
hallway. “Time is of the essence.”
Seth rolled his eyes. “They couldn’t have waited another thirty
or sixty minutes?”
“I don’t know what you think you were going to get accomplished in
that extra time.”
Still feeling a little dizzy, I swayed when I stood and
looked down at my unbuttoned shirt and bra.
Now how did that happen?
Seth grinned at me.
Shadows
(A Lux Novel Prequel to Obsidian) By Jennifer L. Armentrout
Teaser#1
“Whenever anyone starts a conversation off like that, I’m pretty sure I am going to flip out.”
Ah, good point. “It has to do with Beth.”
His brother’s face went blank.
“I went to see her yesterday, at her house,” he continued. “And something happened.”
There was still no response from his brother. A quiet Daemon was a Daemon about to explode. “I don’t know how it happened or why, but it did. We were kissing…and I lost hold on my human form.”
Daemon sucked in a sharp breath and started to stand but stopped. “Jesus…”
“It left a faint trace on her.” And here comes the bad part. “And she knows the truth.”
Like a switch being thrown, Daemon was up and in his face in a split second. “Are you serious?”
Dawson met his brother’s hard stare. “I don’t think I’d joke about something like this.”
“And I didn’t think you’d be so damn careless, Dawson!” Daemon flickered out and reappeared on the other side of the room, his spine rigid and shoulders tense. “Dammit!”
Teaser #2
“Your girl is going to turn into one huge, mother—”
“Finish that sentence and I will stab you in the eye with the spork Bethany’s about to pull out of her bag for her apple sauce.” He smiled gamely. “And she’d be very upset if I got her spork all messed up. She’s rather fond of the thing.”
Yeah, she would be upset over that…for many reasons.
Andrew sat back, his jaw tightening. On the other side, Daemon did the strangest thing. He laughed—really loudly. It was a nice sound, deeper than Dawson’s.
“A spork,” Dee said, grabbing her bag. “What is a spork?”
Bethany’s mouth dropped open. “You’ve never seen one?”
“Dee doesn’t get out much,” Dawson replied, grinning.
“Shut up.” Dee pulled out the fork and spoon in one and smiled. “I’ve never seen one of these! Ha. This is so handy.” She looked over at Daemon, eyes dancing. “We could get rid of over half of our silverware and get like ten of these and we’d be set for life.”

Existence by Abbie Glines
Chapter One
Don’t look at him and he’ll go away. I chanted in my head, as I walked toward my locker. It took an extreme amount of willpower not to glance back over my shoulder. Not only would alerting him I could see him be pointless but it would also be stupid. The halls were already full of students. Although, if he’d followed me inside the school I would have seen him easily enough through the throngs of people. He would stand out just like they always did, unmoving and watching.
“GAH! Have you seen Leif? I mean honestly can he get any hotter? Oh, yes he can.” Miranda Wouters, my best friend since elementary school, squealed as she grabbed my arm.
“No, I haven’t seen him. Football camp must’ve agreed with him,” I replied, forcing a smile. I couldn’t care less how hot Leif Montgomery looked. Miranda rolled her eyes and opened the locker beside mine.
“Honestly, Pagan, I don’t get how you can be so immune to such intense hotness.”
I managed a genuine laugh and slipped my bag over my shoulder. “Hotness? You didn’t just say hotness.”
Miranda shrugged, “I’m not an endless well of descriptive words, like you are.”
I chanced a peek over my shoulder. The halls were full of normal people, living people. They were talking, laughing, and reading over their schedules. It was all very real. I let out a sigh of relief. This was the first day of my senior year. I wanted to enjoy it.
“So, what class do you have first?” I asked, relaxing for the first time since I’d spotted the dead guy lounging outside on the picnic table staring directly at me.
Teaser
“You’re the one thing I want the most in the world yet the one thing I cannot have. Because to have you completely would be impossible. You can’t go where I walk.” He stopped and cradled my face in his hands. “The purpose of my existence is not to have a mate. It is lonely and cold. Until now it has been all I've known. Then you became the appointed and everything changed.” He dropped his hands from me and backed away as a pained desperation clouded his eyes. “Go, Pagan. Run, please, run. I am not what you think I am. I am not ‘intelligent, honest, talented, and compassionate’ although hearing you say those words in my defense felt like warm liquid pouring through my cold veins. You want to know what I am and I can’t tell you. If you knew, I wouldn't have to beg you to run.”
I hope you liked my teasers and the chapter intro
Leave me a comment with your teasers, or link to them.
