Show Me The Stars Ch9

Here she is! I hope the wait was worth it.

This is not a tentative, getting-to-know-you kiss like the other night. This is I want to fuck you, I’ll die without you.

I can't look at you and not want you (AO3)

sneak peek

Not to be alarmist, but the next chapter of Show Me The Stars is almost ready to be posted! This little fucker has challenged me for the last two months, but I finally got the better of it.

Snippet below the cut - it's Cassian's house party and it's a hot one 😉

“Oh, I’m good.” Is he nuzzling her hair with his nose, or is she imagining that? “Did you miss me?”

Either way, she can’t help but tilt her head, granting him better access. “Mm. A little.”

“I missed you. In fact, I-”

He straightens up and she realises the other two are back. She pulls his arm away, making him release her, but it’s too late. Cassian and Azriel’s knowing looks are the definition of smug.

She refuses another shot. The two she’s had in the last two minutes are already zinging their way to her brain. Rhys moves to her side, his dark blue eyes glinting as they finally meet hers, as he knocks back both his drink and hers. Then his gaze travels lazily, deliberately down her body, and there’s no mistaking the darkness that takes over his features. He wants her.

Holy fuck.

For the past month she’s grown used to the sensation of fluttering butterflies whenever she sees him. But now, after Wednesday night and with all of their growing feelings for one another, it’s so much more than that. Now it’s visceral, like some divine hand is deep inside her abdomen, grabbing hold of the very core of her being and tugging hard. It steals her breath away; makes her heart stutter behind her ribs. You’re so hot, she wants to tell him, helplessly. Like an accusation. It’s not fair that one man can be so devastatingly sexy, can have this much of an effect on her with a single look.  

“How does it feel to be old, Cass?” Rhys asks, still staring at her, and his jibe manages to register in the small part of her brain that remains present in the room - so much so that she playfully hits him on the arm. “Ouch!”

“You’re such a fucker,” she breathes, and his housemates laugh.

“I wasn’t talking about you,” Rhys says with a smirk. “You’re not old. You’re perfectly mature.”

“I think that might be worse?”

“Yep, it’s worse,” Cass agrees.

“Like a mouldy cheese,” Azriel adds.

“Fuck you two.”

Show Me The Stars Ch8

“Don’t think about me tonight, when you go to bed.”

“I never think about you.”

His amused, ocean-blue eyes pierce all the way through her soul, and everything inside her throbs. “I never think about you either.”

Ready for a beach date? It’s just a kiss (AO3)

Show Me The Stars, Ch 7

“You have more freckles now than when we met. I love them. They’re almost my favourite thing about you.” “What’s your favourite thing about me?” she breathes. The entire world has disappeared. They could be standing on the moon for all she cares. His smile grows wider. “Everything else.”

Chapter 7: My favourite thing about you (AO3)

Thank you for the love on the previous chapter! Hope you enjoy this <3

Show Me The Stars Ch6

Feysand modern AU, set in beautiful sunny Australia.

Feyre is a feminist. She firmly believes that her orgasms belong entirely to her, and not to anyone else. She’s never come for a man before; only ever for her own pleasure. But for her young, sexy barista, with the most devilish grin she’s ever seen - she would come, over and over again. She would beg him to say it, to command her. Come for me, darling.

Chapter 6: you look good on my bed (AO3)

Chapter 5: Hot barista problem

She opens her mouth to speak and then bites her bottom lip instead, unable to decide what to do. Rhys frowns. “Don’t do that,” he says. “What?” “Bite your lip.” A group of people push past them on their way out, knocking him into her. Suddenly they’re pressed together, and he looks very serious as he murmurs: “It’s too fucking sexy, Feyre. I can’t handle it.” “Stop,” she breathes. “No. You stop.”

I missed you while I was away (AO3 link)

Show Me The Stars Ch 3

Chapter 3: you little fucker

“Maybe you need to- ” “Don’t,” she warns, knowing exactly what he’s about to say. He grins at her as he completely ignores her. “-Date a guy in his twenties. No baggage. Emotionally available. Plus: much better stamina.”

Time for a beer by the beach.

Show Me The Stars Ch 2

Chapter 2: But holy fuck you're hot

“Come with me.” Rhys’s voice beside her ear sends a shiver all the way through her. She glances up at him and his big smile makes her knees feel weak. Then his palm in on the small of her back, guiding her forwards towards the stairs, and she allows it without any resistance. He could take her anywhere right now, do anything to her, with the way the wine has softened her edges. Her willpower.

Thank you for all the likes and shares, I hope you're enjoying these two cute little Aussie lovebirds. Here you go, over to AO3...
