Onyx Goodness

Yesterday I was interviewed over at Fresh Fiction and I talked about the story behind the Lux Covers and some things we have planned for the future. There was also a Onyx teaser. I went ahead and posted the teaser below, mainly because this blog feeds into everything so that everyone will have a chance to see. But don't forget to check out the interview and enter to win a copy of Obsidian.

Anyway, here is the Onyx teaser. It will probably be the last for awhile.

"You okay with all of this?" I whispered to Daemon.

He shrugged. "Not like I can stop her."

I knew he could if he wanted, which meant he didn't have a problem with it.

"Cookie?" he offered, holding a cookie full of chocolate chips.

Upset tummy or not, there was no way I could refuse that. "Sure."

His lips tipped up one side and he leaned toward me, his mouth inches from mine. "Come and get it."

Come and get...? Daemon placed half the cookie between those full, totally kissable lips.

Oh, holy alien babies everywhere...

My mouth dropped open. Several of the girls at the table made sounds that had me wondering if they were turning into puddles under the table, but I couldn't bring myself to check out what they really were doing.

That cookie—those lips—were right there.

Heat swept over my cheeks. I could feel the eyes of everyone on else, and Daemon... dear God, Daemon arched his brows, daring me.

Dee gagged. "I think I'm going to hurl."

Mortified, I wanted to crawl into a hole. What did he think I was going to do? Take the cookie from his mouth like something straight out of an R rated version of Lady and the Tramp? Heck, I kind of wanted to and I wasn't sure what that said about me.

Daemon reached up and took the cookie. There was a gleam to his eyes, as if he just won some battle. "Times up, Kitten."

I stared at him.

          Breaking the cookie into two, he handed me the larger piece. I snatched it away, half tempted  to throw it back in his face, but it was... it was chocolate chip. So I ate it and loved it.
