Rhythm Me ~ Ashia

When I think of words I think of it as a rhythm. There is a subtle rhythm that beats when you read. One you probably don’t even notice. With each of my books I’m bringing you into that rhythm.

Here’s one of my books.

The Hunt
A Blackstone Haven Snippet
By Taige Crenshaw
February 2017
Featured Characters Book: Power of Attraction
Genre: Paranormal
Series: Blackstone Haven
Length: Snippet

Wesley glanced at Peyton standing across the yard talking to Pandora, her sisters, aunts, mom and other women at the party. He wondered what mischief the women were up to now. As if sensing his gaze Peyton glanced at him and winked. Although he was too far away to see the look in her gaze he figured it was that mischievous I am up to no good one. Then again maybe he really didn’t want to know. And he sent up a quick prayer it didn’t involve him.

“I hope that whatever they are up to doesn’t involve us.” Ian standing to his right said.

There were sounds of agreement from Savage, Zyric, Peyton’s dad, uncles and brothers as well as other men standing with Wesley.

Wesley figured as he was the men were looking at the women and from their body language, looks toward them and just plain when they got together it lead to trouble they knew they were up to something.

The women suddenly all laughed then headed toward them. Watching Peyton as it always did made Wesley hard. She had this innate rhythm that made him think of music that was wild untamed and so sexy.

“Shit.” Zyric said. “Pandora is smiling.”

Wesley glanced at her and saw she was. That didn’t bode well at all.

“Sinai too.” Ian sighed. “We are so screwed.”

Wesley noticed the wide smirk on Sinai’s face and yeah that was even worst. The women stopped a few steps from them. He noted those who were involved with someone stood before that person while the others just paired off with someone. So it was a man facing a woman.

“Oh lord.” Peyton’s father said. “My wife is…”

As he spoke all the women clothing changed. Wesley felt the magic surge in the air and from the sensation he knew it was Peyton’s mother. The high-collared skin-tight leather body suit, ankle boots and various weapons adorned each women and was meant to intimidate. The body suits and boots matched and were in different colors based on person wearing it. But all Wesley saw was how sexy Peyton looked in her dark rich red clothing. She winked at him again.
Move slow. She telepathically brushed his mind with her words.

Confused he didn’t know what she meant. Peyton’s mom strode out of the line and walked before them. He’d only seen her in more casual flowing clothing. It was amazing how what she wore seemed to change her mannerism. As she walked he could see where her kids had gotten their power and intimidating persona when on the hunt.

“Usually we have a competition. This time the ladies and I decided let’s make it more entertaining. Also to get in some practice.” She smiled and it wasn’t at all comforting. “So we’re the hunters and you will be our targets.” She started back down the line toward them. “We’ll give you a five minute head start.” She then went on to tell them the rules of engagement and that the weapons were loaded with rubber darts that was more of sting, any others like whips and ropes were for containment once caught. The winner of this would be determined by counting who was caught. So if more males were caught by women then the women won and vice versa. “So any questions.”

“Are we allowed to use our own weapons?” Ian asked unsheathing his claws. “Or powers.”

“Of course.” She smiled. “We want to at least give you a fighting chance.”

Wesley knew she didn’t mention not injuring each other since this was all in fun. And they would ensure that it was that and nothing else.

Peyton’s mother stopped just to his left and spoke again. “May the best women win.”

“You mean men.” Peyton’s dad retorted.

“Whatever you think I mean dear.” Peyton’s mother smiled wider.

“God woman you look…” Peyton’s dad grabbed her mother and pulled her to him kissing her.

“Mom…Dad.” The kids cried out.

“I’m scarred for life.” Sinai said covering her eyes.

“We’ve been that for a long time.” Peyton said sighing. She came forward and tugged on her mom.

The couple clung them released each other.

Peyton’s mother breathed out then said in a husky voice. “Don’t try to distract me man.”

“Anytime woman.” Peyton’s dad winked.

“Go.” Peyton’s Mom yelled.

People moved. Ian took off in a run toward Sinai then jumped in mid-air he shifted and from his trajectory he should have taken her down thus winning.

“Not that easy, kitty.” She shimmered and was gone.

Ian landed almost delicately on the ground, he made a growling sound then took off. Wesley shook his head. Seemed like Ian thought he was the one hunting Sinai but Wesley knew the woman was actually lulling Ian into a false sense of the chase.

Pandora pulled a wall of water and laughing she surrounded Zyric and herself. Suddenly the air peeled back and the shadows enveloped them. With Pandora using her gifts and Zyric the shadows Wesley figured they wouldn’t see them again for a while. Then again many of the others who were couples probably wouldn’t be seen for a while. He wondered if the women realized that even if caught the men wouldn’t mind so much. He hardened even more thinking of what he and Peyton could get up to.

“Aren’t you running?” Peyton asked right in front of him.

Wesley looked down and blinked. He hadn’t heard her approach. “I’m moving slow as you said I should.”

“At least let me chase you a little.” She pouted. “Make the blood get all flowing and stuff. Then when I catch you I can have you.” She leaned in and said next to his ear. “Anyway I want too.”

“Maybe I’m the one who will catch you.” Wesley countered.

“Ohh…” Peyton said. “That works for me.” She wavered then was gone leaving laughter in her wake.

He centered himself then connected with her mentally. Wesley smiled turned then started to run. Time for the hunt.
