Excerpt:Her mind was not only shielded, but utterly untouchable. He pushed against the space her mind existed in. When nothing changed, he pushed harder. The focus did nothing to her, but the humans standing around her stumbled back. How was that possible? Humans rarely were able to keep him out of their heads, especially when he truly focused on them. Their brains just weren’t strong enough to withstand the assault.He watched a blush creep up the female’s cheeks and realized he’d been staring at her for several long moments. With a grunt he broke eye contact and busied himself with his equipment. He couldn’t decide if he wanted to get out of the bar and forget the female, or find out how she was able to block him. She was a mystery that needed to be solved. His perfectly structured life had just hit a snag that he wasn’t sure he could let go. He hadn’t been thwarted in close to a thousand years. Vampires, humans, shifters, and even demons were susceptible to his control. How did this little human woman end up with such power? Had she been sent to him on purpose as a distraction?The thought that another vampire was using this woman against him pulled a growl from his chest. He sent his senses out into the room, through the walls into the surrounding streets, but found nothing unusual. Perhaps he was being paranoid. He hadn’t faced an assassination attempt in hundreds of years. He was too old for most vampires to even deem approachable.He wanted to know how she was keeping him out, even if it was just to answer the question. You could taste her, make a blood connection. The idea of a blood connection made other systems in his body come to life. He fed daily from some human or another, but actually to feed for a connection, not just sustenance, was something he hadn’t done in many years. He would speak with her, and if her answers didn’t satisfy him then he would feed from her. He could then delve into her mind and solve the questions she posed. He shook his head. He’d already spent far too much time thinking about the human female.
It was never safe to tempt the vampire nature by focusing too long on a given human. They usually ended up as sheep under the vampire’s care once they became fixated on someone. Alex already had a healthy population he fed from. He no longer kept a stock of sheep at a house, but he did frequent a set of humans that gave freely of their blood. He had no intention of taking another for his stockpile. This female needed to walk out of his life quickly before he set his sights on her.

Excerpt:The woman watched him with an intelligent gleam to her eyes. Her skin was a beautiful olive hue that spoke to a deep Mediterranean lineage. Her hair was black. Not the dark brown that so many called black. It was black enough that it shone blue in the harsh lights of the bar. Long and slightly wavy, it beckoned to be grasped and used as an anchor while he plundered her mouth. Her body was beautifully curvy. Plush breasts and hips were outlined by her conservative attire. He watched her chest rise and fall with each breath, watched the pulse at the crook of her neck beat. Each blink of her beautiful dark eyes was marked in his memory.He was captivated.She wasn’t staring at him with a blank look like all the others in the crowd. She saw him, really looked at him as a man. He hadn’t been truly seen by a human in so long it felt strange, unnerving and gave him a sense of vulnerability he found disconcerting. Humans saw what he projected, a fuzzed perception of a male. Most couldn’t see through that outer shell, and the ones that did quickly averted their gaze. He was formidable as a male specimen, but add in the power and utter lack of emotion and he was terrifying. He liked it that way. He didn’t have to pretend to care if no one could really see him. This human woman watched him with rapt attention. She’d tunneled through the fuzz, through his shell, and really saw him. A spike of anxiety flitted through his mind.When he struck the last note on his guitar he stood for a moment, listening to the applause and whistles. His attention was riveted on the woman, and he watched her slowly raise her hands to salute him with her soft clapping. Her lips had parted and her breathing had sped when their eyes had locked. Perhaps she was feeling some of the same confusing emotions. Maybe the fast pulsing of blood through her veins was due to her reaction to him. He hoped for the second.Alex shook himself from his thoughts. What did he care if she saw him, or even more, what did he care if she was affected by him? All humans were affected. That was part of being a predator of their species. His body exuded power designed to toy with their feeble minds, to show them things they wanted to see. She seemed to be an enigma, though. It had been so long since someone saw him for a male alone, instead of a powerful vampire. There was one way to determine her thoughts, another of those powers borne of living as long as he had. Digging into thoughts and memories of a human brain was easy. At first when that power manifested, he found it fun to use, now it was just second nature. A tool in his arsenal to be used for protection and hunting. He touched his mind to hers, planning to burrow into her thoughts and be done with the questions. What he found was astounding.

Excerpt:Alexandre DiMassone stood in the smoky room, absorbing thoughts and emotions from the fifty-odd patrons milling around the bar. He rested against the wall, hiding in the shadows cast by the sparse lighting. He breathed in the scent of humans and grinned. This was his secret passion. He lived for Friday nights. They allowed him to immerse himself in the stink of humanity. By the end of the night he would select one fromthe masses and make a meal of them, but until then he would enjoy the noise, the smells and the beating hearts of the prey.His turn to take the small stage approached. From the conversations around him it seemed that many of the females had come to see him perform. He couldn’t help smirking. If they only knew what he was, and how much danger the entire room was in while he stood within the walls. Some days he toyed with the idea of killing all of the humans around him with a single thought just to see if he still could. Or to take control of their minds and march them out into the rain to watch their confusion when he released his hold.Some days he had to find reasons to get out of bed because of the boredom and lack of reasons to rise. He’d seen them all, tasted them all, and fucked them all. There wasn’t a single experience he hadn’t had already in his almost two thousand years. Nothing touched the cold, disconnected heart that beat slowly in his chest. He couldn’t even remember the last time the organ had raced for anything. Even chasing prey and feeding didn’t matter any longer. He did both to remain alive, but even that was becoming a bore. He sighed before pulling his guitar from his case. He’d chosen an old Italian lullaby that he’d adapted to an acoustical rock song. The words wouldn’t matter anyway, once he started singing the spell would be cast, and everyone would move by his command, his thoughts. Was it cheating to use his gifts? He used to think so, but when he entered a song nothing else mattered. It was the one time, the one place where he could lose himself for a few moments and feel something. With the emotions came the outpouring of his powers. He wasn’t harming the humans by letting them bask in his control. He wasn’t using it to send them all running into traffic. No, he let them feel the song the way he did, the way music should be felt. They should fall at his feet and worship him for the amount of true living he gave them while he sang.He took the final step onto the stage and immediately the attention of the building shifted to him. He picked the first chord and began to sing. His eyes closed on their own, his thoughts flowing back through time to his mother and her love of the song. The memory of the smells of Italy, sitting with his mama while she sang to him flowed through his thoughts. The energy inside began to build, his heart opened and he let the energy flow through him into the crowd.His mind drifted through the short song. He quickly closed off the memories of when the song had meaning, or had been sung to others. Those were too close to the surface when he sang, too easily they could hurt him. He focused on the music and the energy flowing from the crowd to him. When he was finishing the song he opened his eyes and found himself held by the most gorgeous chocolate gaze he’d ever seen. He faltered for a millisecond before catching himself and continuing the last few notes.

Excerpt:“Geez, Meg. You couldn’t pick someplace a little more our style for tonight? This place is oozing desperation.” Renae stared at the building and grimaced. The shack thumped with music so loud her molars shook while they sat in her car in the parking lot. The structure might have been brick, or adobe, or just twigs held together with twine and bubblegum for all she knew. At the moment, it looked like a condemned building waiting for a wrecking ball to wipe it mercifully off the face of the earth. Dirty windows were held together by a spiderweb of duct tape. There were shingles missing from the roof and at least three busted lights along the front. The whole thing screamed, “Go back before it’s too late.”“You, my dear, are a spoilsport. This is one of the jumpingest places around here. And, I have it on good authority that there is a very, very hot guy who sings on Friday nights.” Meg smirked as she climbed out of the car. “See, I brought you to a show, not just a bar.”“Whatever, but if we get mugged I am completely blaming you for the rest of our lives.”“You are so cute when you’re grumpy.”“Shut up, Meg.” Renae sighed as she climbed out of her car. She brushed her hands down the long tweed skirt she’d thrown on. “Let’s go.”The two walked toward the door and Renae swore she saw a rat or two running from the building like they even knew it was a deathtrap. The girls had been to some seedy places before, but this one really took the cake. They approached the unmanned door. The peeling paint and dented exterior didn’t do a thing to boost her confidence in the establishment. She grabbed the handle and pulled the heavy door open. Immediately she was engulfed in the smells of a bar—beer, wing sauce and smoke. The music became exponentially louder and washed over her ears, deadening them slightly and setting up a nice ringing deep in her head.A hand tugged mercilessly on her arm and when she turned to scowl, she found Meghan grinning from ear to ear. She mouthed something, but Renae wasn’t good at reading lips, and there was no way to hear her friend over the cacophony of sounds. With a tug and a push, Meg maneuvered them inside the door. The smells and noise didn’t improve with the few steps they took.
Renae wasn’t impressed. They weaved their way through overheated bodies, most smelling unpleasant. Nothing in the place gave her any reason to stay. At least not until a deep male voice rang out into the room. Her body reacted immediately. Her heartbeat sped and her stomach fluttered. Oh. My. The voice wasn’t just deeply male. It was commanding, arousing, and utterly irresistible. Her feet moved her into the crowded bar, and toward the tiny stage without her conscious thought. With the first glimpse of the blond god singing into the microphone, her brain collapsed in on itself and disconnected. She couldn’t have told anyone the words that were coming from his perfectly formed mouth, but she definitely could have described every inch of his face.

Excerpt:With a sigh she pulled her cell phone from her pocket and dialed Meghan. While Renae listened to the ringing she thought about her best friend. Meghan was outgoing, cute, skinny, blonde, and hell on wheels. Renae’s exact opposite, in fact. They usually made a good pair. Meg was the one that planned their adventures, and Renae was the one who made sure they made it home safe afterward. She just hoped she could stand her ground against her forceful friend. If history was any indication, she should just go change her clothes now.One ring. Two rings. Maybe Meg wouldn’t pick up. “No, you aren’t backing out on me.” The knowing tone of her friend’s voice came through the phone loud and clear.Damn. “Come on, Meg. I’ve had one hell of a day. I don’t want to go to some stupid bar so you can troll for a piece of ass.”“Come on. Really? You’re going to back out on our Friday night thing?” A touch of whine had Renae gritting her teeth. She hated it when Meg begged. “You have to come. Please? For your own good you need to get out of that house. And, it shouldn’t be just me trolling. You’re going to have to get out there eventually.”Renae could feel herself giving in already, letting her will bend. Hold strong, little grasshopper. “No. I’m staying in. If you want to see me, you have to come here. We can watch a movie and eat ice cream.”Meg huffed on the other end of the call, all wheedling attitude gone and replaced with the spitfire’s normal commanding voice. “Renae Ann Gioli. You are going to go upstairs, put on some clothes worthy of a shitty bar, and get your slow ass to my apartment. Period.”Renae knew what was coming. As soon as someone whipped out the full name she crumpled like a limp piece of paper. “Fine. Be there in twenty.”“Fine.”“Fine.”“You’re stalling, Renae. Get going.” Meg hung up with a decisive click.
Renae did as instructed, grumbling the whole way. She stomped up the stairs, noting that she needed to dust the photos hung on the walls. Grumping into her room found her staring at her closet, the need to reorganize flitting through her mind. With a sigh she dressed, primped and powdered until she felt mostly ready. She grimaced at her own reflection and then headed to her garage. She’d go and probably have a good time, but she wasn’t going to admit it.

Excerpt:Renae stood in her living room staring at the floor. She willed herself to make the decision. Either get ready to go out or call Meghan to cancel. She didn’t want to go to some smoke-filled, stale-beer-smelling, loud-music-playing, bar. Meg was pretty good at picking hick bars for their traditional Friday night outings. Renae really just wanted to sit on her couch, stare at the boob tube and ignore the world for a few hours. But she knew that it would take Meghan five minutes or less to make a trip to a bar fun and worth going.Renae sighed.Her accounting appointments had been brutal. She should have known better than to schedule the two contractors back-to-back on a Friday. They had wanted to argue every receipt and every expense. She didn’t know why they had her doing their books when it seemed that they didn’t trust her. Her disgust during the meetings had her spouting off at both men, and then having to apologize when their egos had been bruised. Stupid men. If Renae could claim anyone as her best friend it would be Meg. They’d been friends since high school and still chummed together whenever they could. She was the only person who had been there when Renae’s parents died, was the only one there for each and every breakup. Meghan was her family, her friend, her sister. She’d understand Renae’s need to stay home and away from backwoods country folk. Not that she normally didn’t enjoy a good country boy on a Friday night, but she couldn’t get enthused over the thought of loud music and handsy guys.

Tattoo Tuesday - Jason JC Kurtis #tattooTuesday #sexyink

Welcome Jason JC Kurtis to Tattoo Tuesday


Give me four sentences that sum you up: what you do, who you are, where you've been...
I've been building my body for almost 18 years. I'm 27 years young. Everywhere I go I draw a crowd LOL (not purposely) I'm a Criminal Investigator Combat Vet Sergeant in the Army. I'm also a certified Personal Trainer I love helping people achieve what they believed was the impossible, and last but not least Personal Security Team Mission Leader.



My Passion is acting and modeling. I've been doing this for 11 years now :-) My dream is to be an actor or model and set my family up for life so no worries from them. I've also been all over this globe to such places as India, Afghanistan, Norway, Ireland, England and Germany. I've lived in Pennsylvania since I was 20 then moved to NC. After that moved back to PA, then off to the army where I lived in Missouri, Maryland, Colorado and soon to be Hawaii.


What was your first tattoo?  Does it have meaning to you?
My First Tattoo was my praying hands tattoo on my left shoulder. It's my favorite tat, it means everything, God is Love and without him nothing is possible.

Do you have any that you regret getting?
All my tats mean something to me. I regret nothing :-)


Do you have more tats planned?
I don't have more tats planned right now. I would like to be more established in the industry then go for it :-)

Do you buy into tattoos being addictive once you start getting them?
The feeling for tats I believe is all mental and a sign of expression. No, I don't believe it's addicting as I believe you can stop. But my one addiction I have is working out I WON'T STOP till I'm dead LOL



What's your life plans for the immediate future? Long-term?
I have 3 Years left in the active Army those remaining years will be spent in Hawaii or if I can get out sooner I definitely will. I plan on moving to Los Angeles, using my GI Bill to pay for college work as a personal trainer and pursue my dream of being an Actor :-) If it doesn't pan out OK I'm fine with that but at least I took a shot no regrets, remember.

If you were a superhero, what would your power be? Your weakness?
I would have the Power to read Minds, or BEING A PSYCHIC. I always wanna know what people are THINKING. My weaknesses? Loud booms bangs or pops, for example fireworks. Since returning home from my first deployment I have been scarred ever since. PTSD Sucks but hey, you drive on!!!!!



Favorite TV show or station?
Favorite Tv show is the Office. I love that show. I love Tru-TV hahahahah

What's your 'go to' comfort item (food, place, drink, etc)?
My go to is the gym it's my sanctuary or fortress of solitude. I am all natural and have the tests to prove it. I'm always striving to be better :-) I pride myself on never using Roids. They are unnecessary and for losers who wanna BUY muscle.



If there were no $ or time limitations, where would you be right now and what would you be doing?
I would be traveling the globe I'm a huge history buff.
