The Road to Damascus

Sooo. Chapter 13 was also published awhile ago.  Maybe re-read it. Jim & Seb are terribly busy falling apart. And Dr Chandra is in it - we love her.  The next chapter is more recent, I promise.

“Damascus? If you see any lightning, run,” he said weakly.

It was a joke - but it was wrong. Everything was all wrong.

Something had crossed over in their world - when had it happened?

Shouldn’t he know?

Sebastian was staring at him like he’d sprouted a second head.

“St Paul? Road to Damascus??” Jim sighed. “Does no one know anything anymore?! Paul was converted to Christianity when-“

“When God spoke to him and blinded him with a brilliant light,” Sebastian interrupted. “Yes, I know…”

“Good for you, Sebbie,” Jim said, patting his cheek. ‘So if you see any lightning, you’re to get the hell out of there immediately. Can’t afford an attack of conscience now, darling…”

Sebastian raised his eyes and a charge went through them as they stared at each other.

Jim felt something like horror rising in him and he pushed it away in irritation like one would bat away a fly.

Who’s feeling an attack of conscience now, Jimmy?

“Why, Jim?” Sebastian asked in a quiet voice.

“Why what?” he replied, looking away.

“Why everything?? I’ll do whatever you ask, you know that… I’ll follow you into hell if that’s where you’re going… but I don’t understand anything anymore…Why are we doing all this?”

Wild Things series: Book 2!

Readers of Red in Tooth and Claw... take heart!

Chapter 1 of The Stars Threw Down Their Spears has been posted!

A year after the events of Red in Tooth in Claw: Sebastian Moran has been working for Jim Moriarty, taking care of his Boss's every need as his head of security, right hand man and personal plaything... and things are going swimmingly. Except when they're not... Jim has become thoroughly obsessed with The Plan, AKA the Magnum Opus of his criminal career... but Sebastian is beginning to think The Plan might go terribly wrong... and not in a fun way.

Jim removed his hand, and let it brush it against Sebastian’s hand on the table. He stared intently at Jim, barely moving.

Trying to read me, honey? Jim thought, and stifled a grin.

“She asked who I’d be sending, by the way... she didn’t mention you of course, but oh, she was thinking it! Curious about the lasting impression she left on the second most dangerous man in the world, since she can’t get her hooks into me...” he said silkily as he split open another edamame shell, and plucked out the beans, dropping them on his tongue one by one. “She believes her charms irresistible to everyone - especially you, now that she’s had a taste for you...” Jim sighed and swiped up his glinting metal chopsticks. “What a coup it would be to think you were secretly melting in her presence!”

He expertly snapped up a piece of beef teriyaki, and looked at it, feigning fascination. “A lamb dressed as a wolf loves to direct your attention to their teeth... and their sharp little claws. It’s adorable, really...” he drawled before touching his tongue to the morsel, and then ripping it from the chopsticks with his teeth.

After Sebastian had left, Jim sat in front of his laptop, staring at the screen without reading a word. There was a doubt in his mind which was so secret even he had barely thought about it since that fateful evening... and now it had surfaced with a vengeance.

He believed in his assessment of Madam Adler... but he didn’t know with 100% certainty if his soldier, technically bisexual, would perhaps be secretly affected by her charms after all. His nails dug into his palms at the mere thought and he stared at the grooves in his flesh now filling with blood. As he licked his palms and the taste of iron coated his tongue, images floated in his mind of what he might do when his wayward soldier returned home.

Careful, Tiger...

If you have yet to read Red in Tooth and Claw, off you pop. ;)
