Poisoned By Desire

What force of nature is more dangerous than love? Desire. Desire is just as potent as love but more deadly and the high is so addictive that most would say the consequences are worth it. Most except for Julian Doyle. He's guilty of both Love and Desire, and because of this recklessness, he has watched the world change for over a century. Cion has lived her life with the knowledge that the world is not as it seems. Sprites, ghosts, and demons live among the masses, and she is one of the 'lucky' few to know it. Cion and Julien are two completely different supernatural beings. Will they be able to withstand the forces trying to keep them apart? *** To kiss him sober is out of my league. But somehow with all these excuses, I still close my eyes and brace for him. I want to feel the heat of his lips but feel nothing. His breath is on my ear as he mutters, "Your name is beautiful." Poisoned by Desire is created by Lydia Clarke, an eGlobal Creative Publishing signed author.

Chapter 15: Trust Issues

Julien’s POV

The next day I woke up feeling lighter. Yesterday had started so f*cked up, but it ended better than I could have imagined. I drove Cionna home after we hung out on the bridge for a while, and we had plans to have dinner tonight at Marco’s Italian Bistro.

I can’t believe how lucky I am. After what happened with Josey, I knew staying in town any longer wasn’t a good idea, but I didn’t mind postponing my move to spend time with Cionna. She is a breath of life I needed before returning to solitude. She makes me want to live again.

I smile at the thought of her. She is so bright, funny, and beautiful. I’m in such a good mood even a long day at work couldn’t ruin it. Thanks to my lovely hardon problems and leaving work unexpectedly, I have to work a ten-hour shift today. I will do it without a single complaint because when it’s time for me to clock out, I’m leaving.
