Here we are, a bit of a sample from The Demon Lord: “Leave it,” he commanded. She paused with her hand outstretched, the robe untouched as she turned her face to him. “I thought to protect you.” “I need no protection.” He sounded so amused by the possibility that she might somehow be capable of harming him. Perhaps he was right. She straightened, allowing the robe to remain where it was. The desert air would dry her almost as fast as the fabric. Nevertheless, she bundled her hair in both hands and allowed it to fall down her back. The damp tendrils swept against the swell of her bottom like the cool tip of a lover’s tongue. “You seem very certain of that,” she said. He took two steps toward her. She backed away, placing her at the edge of the water, where the fallen rain lapped at her heels. A soft laugh rolled from his chest at her cautious retreat. “I’ve heard the tales of the things goddesses do with mortal men.” “And I’ve seen the results of what demons do with mortal women.” It was a reckless response for her to make. Demon offspring were monsters who clawed their way from the womb and tore their mortal mothers apart, feeding on their flesh. She held her breath as the night shifted around them. Shadows danced to the music of a wind that rustled dry, tumbled brush and tall, brittle grass. His gaze blackened. “You’re as immortal as I am. You have no more love for spawn than we do. Can you tell me the spawn goddesses create with mortals are any different from ours?” “There are no such offspring,” she said. “Goddesses are barren.” “It’s far more likely that mortal males could never plant their seed in an immortal womb.” He stepped closer. In order to evade him, she would have to reenter the pool, but this time, Allia refused to give ground. He again reached out to touch her, to trace a light finger down her cheek and along the side of her neck, to tease the length of her collarbone to the base of her throat. “Many magnificent things might result if a goddess and demon were to mate.”
