BLURB:
William
Shakespeare said All the world’s a stage, but he hadn’t counted on
shifters under a theater’s hot lights. Lovers Sam Hightower and Grant Newsome
live for the stage. Although they have enjoyed the wanderlust of traveling
theater for many years, each has grown tired of the road and wants to settle
down. They also have a secret. As shifters and no part of any pack, they are lone
wolves in every sense of the word. The full moon brings out the beast in them.
Even
though their work as gaffers—lighting techs—puts them in contact with a large
variety of willing, sexy men and women to share their love, they prefer men.
They find a dancer, Luke Pearce, who makes their blood run hot, but Luke has a
secret of his own to test them. Add scenic artists and lovers Charlotte and
Lina to the mix, and you have a wild and sexy fivesome.
To
spoil their fun and to their surprise, Sam and Grant discover another shifter
in their midst, but this young person is so inexperienced and terrified she
could expose them to the human hunters and get them killed. How can Sam and
Grant protect themselves as well as the people they love?
EXCERPT
After many decades, Grant
had grown weary of running and hiding, and that evening drove his melancholia
home harder than ever.
There he sat with Sam in the Portland forest, part
human and part wolf, smoking and drinking, waiting for their meal to appear. Grant
sat in front of Sam while Sam rubbed his shoulders.
So much had changed over time. Now, he relied on
his iPhone to keep track of moon phases. Before his trip to Freiberg, he hadn’t
even noticed the moon in the sky at all. No matter where he lived or toured, he
had taken to hiding out in the nearest forest on those couple of nights each
month when the blood lust took over his mind and body. No one was safe when he
transformed, and he did what he could to avoid harming people. A deer or stray
dog quenched his blood lust while he hid from the world in the safety of the
deepest area of the forest, waiting until the full moon decayed the five
percent he needed to be out of trouble. He only transformed at night, and his
gallon jug of monkshood rye alleviated his symptoms somewhat, but in the end,
he knew he was a danger and needed to hide, not only to avoid killing people
but to keep away from the local authorities.
He crouched on the forest floor, swatting the
black flies that bit through his thick fur. He wished there were some way of
reversing the curse thrust upon him. He wanted nothing more than to sit at home
with Sam, drink some beer, and watch a porn flick while making love to Sam
again. He cursed his bad timing and rotten luck. He could say “if only”
until the tides reversed. Nothing would change the fact that he would go feral
every full moon. While he accepted his fate, he did not like it at all. Each
full moon he fell into a rage that often came with thoughts of suicide, but when
he thought of Sam and his sweet nature and even sweeter body, he realized he
had reason to stay alive.
Sam sat next to him, smoking a cigarette, and
Grant handed him the jug. Why did Sam seem to take to the change better than
he? Or did he really take to it better? What if Sam only pretended so that
Grant wouldn’t feel so bad? Misery loved company, but Sam, being a good-natured
sort, didn’t wallow in sorrow. He considered the moonlit change a monthly
inconvenience, much like some women considered their menstrual cycles. An irritant.
If only Grant felt the same way.
Sam gulped as he drank, making slurping noises
that grated in Grant’s ears. Sometimes Grant considered the potion the only
control he had over his life.
“I feel miserable. I hate the full moon,” Grant
said. “Sometimes I just want to curl up and die.”
“It will last only another day or two and then
things will be back to normal.”
“What kind of normal is this kind of life?” Grant
let his chin rest on his chest as Sam rubbed the kinks out of his shoulders. “My
entire body hurts. The monkshood rye helps, but I’m as sore as I know I’ll be
every month.”
“I know what you mean. We need something strong
for the pain, like morphine, but I don’t know where to get it.”
“I’d rather have cyanide.”
“Don’t talk like that. We can get through this.”
Grant groaned in ecstasy as Sam’s fingers rubbed
down his spine. Even though his entire body ached and he wanted to do nothing
more than sleep for the next two days, his cock reacted to Sam’s amorous touch,
growing larger and becoming sensitive to the slightest touch.
“Hey, I found a great movie for us to watch,” Sam
said. “The Brotherhood of the Wolf. I
figured it was the perfect movie for our time of the month.”
“Never heard of it.”
Sam turned to Grant and gave him a look Grant was
all too familiar with. It was the you’ve got to be shitting me look,
since Sam enjoyed relishing in the ways of the world much more than Grant.
“You can’t
be serious. What kind of werewolf are you when you’ve never heard of The Brotherhood of the Wolf?”
“I just don’t get into those kinds of movies. I
like action movies. You know that.”
“Tell you what. I’ll bring it home in a day or
two, and we’ll watch it. It’s really good, and it won’t gross you out.” He
grinned. “It’s French, too.”
“That means it has subtitles. I hate reading
subtitles. No thanks, I’ll pass.”
“How about An
American Werewolf in London?”
“I told you, no werewolf movies. I’d rather watch Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels again.”
“How about The
Transporter Two? I hear it’s so bad it’s good. What about that one?”
Grant shuffled on the ground, picked up the jug of
monkshood rye, and gulped some down. Pointedly ignoring Sam, he gazed into the
forest, hoping something big and tasty would come out soon. Maybe a deer if they
got lucky. He was famished, and he wanted to eat rather than waste time and
energy talking about movies he didn’t like.
“C’mon, what do you say? It’s got Jason Statham in
it. You like him.”
“Okay, that sounds good. Just no werewolf movies,
please. What got into you to watch werewolf movies when the moon is full? That’s
like watching Rosemary’s Baby when
you’re pregnant.”
“I like to have fun with it, rather than mope
about like you. You wallow in it. My first werewolf, and you turn out to be overly
sensitive.”
“Oh, knock it off.” His sensitive ears picked up rustling
in the brush several yards ahead. “Now shush. I hear food in the bushes. Shh.”
A ‘possum emerged from the brush, oblivious to the
danger that lurked only a few yards away. Grant had not tasted ‘possum in
several months, and he welcomed the change. He needed to eat meat when he
shifted, but he didn’t want to call attention to himself by eating his neighbor’s
pets or any animals that would be missed. That left the usual gopher, raccoon,
or rat if they missed getting anything in the woods.
What I would
do for some fresh venison, though.
He eyed up the unsuspecting creature’s flesh,
salivating so much he could almost taste its meat, red and bloody, raw and
metallic. Inching in, ever so slowly, so as to not so much as break a twig, he
crept towards the ‘possum, and when he was ready to pounce, he heard a loud ka-boom
from behind.
The ‘possum shrieked and fled into the forest. Birds
flew from the trees. Furious, Grant turned on his heels and growled at Sam.
“Dammit, Sam, you sneezed, and that ‘possum got away
from me.”
“I couldn’t help it. Allergies. I took Claritin
early evening before we changed, but I guess I need a prescription.”
“Ya think? If you sneeze again and drive away a
perfectly good meal, I might have to disembowel you myself.”
“C’mon, I said I was sorry. Lie back and I’ll make
it up to you.”
Grant stretched out on the grass, arms behind his
head and legs extended, waiting for Sam’s gentle touch. When Sam’s hand stroked
his chest, his heart skipped a couple of beats. Even Sam’s slightest touch aroused
him. His cock jumped a little, in anticipation of what he knew was coming.
The sex will
take my mind off my hunger. There’s nothing as distracting as a good blow job, especially from Sam.
Grant relished Sam’s exquisite blow jobs, and he
knew Sam would not disappoint him.
I need him,
need his touch on me, anything to take my mind off this burning need for flesh.
Sam’s lips brushed Grant’s shoulder, then traveled
down his chest to rest near his groin. Closing his eyes to fully enjoy Sam’s
kiss, he waited for those soft lips to reach his cock.
Brushing against his head in tight, slow circles,
Sam’s lips wrapped around Grant’s cock, and in response Grant dug his fingers into
the earth. With a gentle movement, those lips and mouth stroked his shaft,
making it jump in Sam’s mouth.
No other man
ever had this kind of effect on me. I can’t resist the mere touch of him
against me.
Sam’s tongue, slick and warm, flicked in circles
around Grant’s shaft. His erection grew harder as Sam’s tongue moved faster
around him. Sam alternated between stroking Grant’s shaft with his tongue, then
sucking hard on his head, all the while rolling his balls in his hand.
Moaning with pleasure, Grant tensed as Sam took all of him
deep into his mouth, sucking and licking, driving him wild. Grabbing Sam’s head
in his hands, he pushed him harder against his cock, taking in his entire
length. The approaching orgasm made his heart race, but the sounds of motors
interrupted his passion. Grant opened his eyes in time to see a shooting star skitter
below the full moon.
