From 'Wild West Island Getaway' ~ a Mid Week Tease ( @rmsotera #erom #paranormal )

Welcome to the middle of the week!
Mid Week Tease is an event where authors are spotlighting a few lines or a paragraph or two from their stories. Readers, you get to sample some delicious snippets and be teased, titillated and tantalized into the weekend!

Our contribution to MWT this week is from Wild West Island Getaway. The gang has traveled to Grand Cayman. Bristol and Damon are on their honeymoon. Cassie and Dak are at odds. Cassie's hanging out at the pool and meets someone new. Enjoy!

* “Ma’am?”
* Distracted out of her turbulent thoughts, she shielded her eyes against the bright sun hanging in a deep blue, cloudless sky and glanced at the man standing near her. “Yes?”
* “May I get you anything?” A slight British accent colored his voice.
* A cloak of patience emanated from the black-haired, hazel-eyed, gorgeous specimen of a man waiting on her answer. Cassie wanted to roll around in his calmness like a feline in a pile of catnip. She swept her gaze up and down his tall, athletic frame, landing on his gold and black name tag.
* Damian.
* Snippets from the movie “The Omen” flipped through her mind. Evil kid. But his name was Damien, with an E not an A, wasn’t it? She smiled at the worker. Damian or Damien, either way, the young fellow looked like he could be trouble. All sorts of fun trouble.

Our contribution to MWT this week is from our wip Wild West Island Getaway. The gang has traveled to Grand Cayman. Bristol and Damon are on their honeymoon. Cassie and Dak are at odds. Cassie's gone off to think and find herself and encounters someone new. Enjoy!

* She assumed the position without question. Ethan placed the rock on her hands to weigh them down. The rough mass, long and wide enough to cover both hands and most of her fingers, pressed upon and nipped her palms. Slowly, the compression and pricks to her muscles and tendons turned into an aching burn. Letting the mild pain float through her, she tested her mobility. She couldn’t move her arms. “Innovative.”
* “I’m good that way.” Ethan straddled her thighs, pinning her lower half to the blanket. “Have to think quick on my feet during my cases.” He bent down and kissed her chin, trailed hot kisses down her throat and nuzzled his face in the crook of her neck. His hands untucked the hem of her shirt from her shorts.
* Electric heat coiled in her shoulder where his lips met her skin, twisted down and joined the sizzling charges shooting along her abdomen where his fingertips skimmed in lazy circles. His sensual assault almost had her glossing over what he’d said. Cases? “In your work as a cabana boy?”
* “Sure.” Licking the notch between her neck and chest, he unbuttoned her shirt, then sat up. “If your hands start to hurt let me know, otherwise, be quiet.” Ethan moved the folds of her blouse away and traced the lace at the top of her strapless turquoise colored bra. “Front clasps. Good.” With a snap of his fingers, he unfastened the hooks. In one smooth motion, he plucked the fabric from her and exposed her breasts. “Lovely.”

* “Stay right there.” He glanced around the area, stepped away and picked up a good sized rock.
* What the hell does he plan to do with that? Images of him bashing her head in flitted through her mind. After all, she didn’t really know the guy. Maybe he was some kind of psycho, and she’d been charmed into his trap. A momentary bout of panic ran through her.
* He cocked his head and peered at her with a baffled expression. “You’re not afraid, are you? Cat, darling, trust me. I won’t harm you.”
* Rooted to her spot, she determined whether or not she should give him credence, decided she could and managed a nod.
* “Good.” His sinfully accented voice rumbled. “Now, lay down on the blanket on your back. Put your arms above your head, palms facing the sky.”
