It’s so funny, I sit here each week eyeing my backlist trying to pick a scene for each theme and find it difficult that after writing somewhere along the lines of 20+ stories, I can’t remember all the scenes. lol

Is that a sign of old age?

I was going to use a scene from Awaken again because the heroine is a singer and I dearly loved the scenes in which she sang the original song written for me by a friend.  But since the last post was from Awaken, I’m grabbing something different.

In the first Pentacles of Magick book, The Bonding, there is a fun pool scene. Grae is a witch and his element is water so it’s easy for him to play here.  And yes,  it’s going to get a little dirty. lol

Excerpt from Pentacles of Magick: The Bonding

Continuing through the room and beyond the other toys, Rena headed for the double doors at the end of the room. These doors were made of heavy steel and they didn’t just ease open. This was it. If trouble was to be found she imagined it would be inside the steel fortified room. With a sharp intake of air she pushed her shoulder against the door as hard as she could. When the door popped open easier than she’d expected, she found herself falling down onto her hands and knees.

A wall of hot, humid air slapped at her, surprising her. The smell of chlorine assaulted her senses. Chlorine?

She raised her eyes from the floor, squinting to adjust to the brightness, taking in her first look of the room. Her eyes widened at the sight before her. Where a normal estate like this might have included an indoor swimming area, not here. No ordinary pool for Graelen Scott. Before her was an elaborate swimming grotto complete with caves, waterfalls, and a black bottomed pool to mimic what one would find in nature. The area was breathtaking.

Having grown up near many natural springs, surprising her family with a natural talent for swimming and diving, Rena grew giddy at the sight before her. That was when she noticed the man swimming across the length of the larger pool. His bare, sleek muscled arms sliced through the water, propelling him to the other side at a good clip. Unable to resist, she ran along the pool’s edge, catching up with him before hastily removing her clothing and diving into the water, arching her body to place her right underneath him.

When his hands reached around her waist to pull her to the surface, she couldn’t resist a satisfied smile. Breaking the water’s surface she choked on some of the water that ran from her hair to her face.

“What the hell, Rena? You trying to scare me to death?” His booming voice sounded angry, but the undeniable spark of humor was what she saw in his eyes.

“Me? What about you? You could have left me a note or something letting me know where you were. I just spent the last thirty minutes scared witless because I couldn’t find you. And not only couldn’t I find you, but I couldn’t sense you, either.” She stopped and stood still. Reaching out. “I still can’t. What’s going on, Graelen?”

“It’s the water, it shields me.”

“What do you mean it shields—oh, water is your element. I was wondering about that. Wouldn’t have pegged you as water, though.”

“Yes, Rena, and in this room with this much water I am pretty hard to get to. Just being here restores all the energy you’ve been stealing from me these past couple of days.”

For a moment she was shocked, thinking she was robbing him of his crucial protective energy. Until, she looked into his eyes and realized exactly what he was referring to.

“Ohhh. You—you are incorrigible, teasing me like that.” She dove for him but he easily moved from within her grasp. He swam over to the edge of the waterfall and dove underneath it, reappearing on the other side. She followed. As she moved closer to the waterfall the water warmed quite a bit, soothing her own sore muscles. When she came up on the other side of the fall she realized it was a spa on this side tucked inside the cave.

It was hard to even imagine that she was still inside a house. There were exotic plants blooming sweet smelling flowers among the bank of rocks, the light filtering into the cave even resembled bright sunshine. Graelen had created a paradise in his home.

“You like?”

“Oh, Grae, it’s incredible. I have always been drawn to the water but this—” She waved her arms around. “This is beyond anything I could have imagined.”

“Good, I’m glad you like it. I spend a lot of time here whenever I can. My magick is strong here, and it makes even simple spells work better.”

She arched her brow, curious to learn more about his magick. “So what exactly can a water witch like yourself do?”

“Almost anything I want.” The look on his face pure mischief, and she wondered what he was up to. She didn’t have to wait long to find out.

She startled when long, warm fingers stroked her foot, caressing her ankles before traveling up her leg.

She looked at Graelen all the way across the spa, not moving an inch. “How?”

“Water is mine to command. To bend and use as I will. As long as I respect it, it will do as I wish. I can shape it, convert it and move it.” The fingers she felt on her legs continued to move up her legs, skimming the surface with a light sensual brush. She gasped at the sensation. She tried to remind herself it was just water but it didn’t feel like water. It was the same impression she got when Graelen ran his hands across her body.

As the caressing water continued to move, her pussy throbbed, aching to be touched.

“Oh, Grae, you should stop.”

“Should I really? You really want me to stop?” Just then a thick finger glanced across her clit, shooting a streak of pleasure throughout her. She pitched slightly forward before the water caught her, cradling her head above the surface. More fingers touched her, massaging her backside, streaking up and down her thighs.

When the first touch of what felt like a tongue swiped across her swollen labia, she cried out with the need to come, caught herself, and held on to the sensation. Part of Rena’s mind concentrated on the hot tongue lapping at her slit, while the other part pictured how many pairs of hands were touching her. One. Two. Three. With Graelen’s magick he could give her—
