Taken by the Phantom
Isabella King
(The Phantom of the Academy, #1)
Publication date: May 16th 2019
Genres: Adult, Fantasy, Romance

I’ve never felt at home at Juilliard. My stagefright always makes me choke when I’m under the spotlight, to my classmates’ delight. But when I’m dragged into a new world, to a new school—where singing is more than a talent, it’s magic—I can’t hide my voice anymore. This new power is tempting, but terrifying forces swirl around the kingdom of Cantus. Missing girls, rivals at my new academy, Rebels, demons slaying people in the street—and it all leads back to him. The mysterious, powerful Phantom, who lurks beneath the opera school and demands he be my teacher—a demand which soon grows into something deeper, darker. But if I want to survive this place, or have any hope of going home, I may have no choice but to give in to him… and all he desires.

Goodreads / Amazon—EXCERPT:I appraise the Phantom of the Opera in shadow and light. For an eternity, he says nothing. Neither do I. There is no barrier between us, yet I can’t make myself move. I’m porcelain shot through with fissures—if he touches me I’ll shatter.What if I want to?Finally, he speaks. “Prima Donna.”I stare at him. His one visible eye is dark, almost black. Set in his white face, against the pale of his mask, it is stark. Of course he is rendered in extremes. For the first time since our encounter here, he is less clothed than I am. He wears a white dress shirt, loose and open. He has a lovely body, finer even than it felt when pressed against mine. He’s more muscular than his tailored suits and sweeping cloaks would lead one to believe, with a sculpted chest, clear lines chiseled across his abdomen.It’s then that I realize he is also young, probably only a few years older than me. If he were from my world, he might still be a student. He might go to Juilliard; an upperclassman who might tutor me or play me opposite in a musical.Of course, in my world he probably wouldn’t wear a mask or live beneath an opera house.He wouldn’t kill. “I am not the Prima Donna,” I finally answer. My voice trembles, and I kick myself internally for showing even one crack in my facade. Still, neither of us have moved. I can see the hard plane of his stomach ripple when he breathes; his jaw is set, and a muscle ticks there. His hands are closed into tight fists. But he doesn’t move.Why?“Not yet.” At last: a step. I force myself not to retreat. “But after I am through with you…”Through with me? Heat licks up the back of my neck. I’m grateful for the darkness. What would he make of me blushing? What do I make of me blushing? “Through with me?”Another step. He’s framed in the doorway: a beautiful, horrifying portrait. Oils and lust and treachery all painted in broad strokes. “With my teaching.”I bark out a laugh. “You’re not serious.”He takes another step. We are toe to toe, and it takes everything in me not to run screaming through the Hall of Mirrors. I’m such an idiot. What was I thinking, coming down here? Staying when Charlotte left? Singing for him? The Phantom looks down his nose at me, lips parted. “Deadly so.”I snort. Narrow my eyes. “Oh,” I say, “so you’re funny now?”“I have always been in possession of quite a sense of humor, Krissy Davis.”“Even while you killed them?”He cocks his head, eyes flaring. I’ve pissed him off. Good. He lifts his hand, no longer gloved, but bare and plain as any man’s. Not monstrous at all. My knees shake, and I hope he doesn’t see. He touches his fingers to my jaw, tender as he might a kitten’s belly.“Especially,” he murmurs, his eyes on my mouth, “while I killed them.”

I’ve been broken. Time and again.My body.My heart.My soul.I’m tired of pretending I’m happy. Even when he makes it seem easy. But my heart is incapable of loving again.________________________

She thinks she can’t love.That there is nothing left in her to give to anyone.Especially me.But I would give anything to love her. If only my demons can stay in the past.

Add to Goodreads—EXCERPT:“You wished to speak with me, child?” he asked. Only the fact that he was older than her grandfather kept her from being annoyed by the endearment.“Yes,” she replied, bowing her head. “I want to know how to get to Annwn. The tales say there’s an entrance somewhere nearby.”He blinked and sat up straighter. “What business does a young lady have in the land of the dead?”“Someone I love arrived there recently, and I’m going to get him back,” Nia said, clenching her fists.The Archdruid sighed. “It hurts to lose a loved one, I know, but it is not for us mortals to interfere in the natural cycle of life and death. The gods have a purpose beyond our comprehension.”“There was no purpose to Celyn’s death!” Nia exclaimed. A hush fell over the hall, and her face flooded with heat, but she soldiered on. “If the gods have an issue with my plans, then surely they can stop me without your help. All I ask is knowledge. Will you deny me?”He frowned, and she wondered if maybe she had taken things too far. But then, he nodded thoughtfully. “I will take an omen. If the gods do not wish you to undertake this journey, they will tell us so.” It felt like just a more roundabout way of refusing, but Nia sensed this was the best chance she was going to get, so she nodded.Nia was led into the chamber behind the main hall, a room dominated by a colossal round hearth sunk into the floor. The Archdruid gestured for her to sit on one of the cushions around the edge of the room. Once she was settled, he tossed a bunch of herbs onto the fire. Fragrant smoke tickled the back of her throat. The shadows leapt and danced in a way that made her shiver with unease.“This will help us to see more clearly,” he said, seating himself beside her and picking up a pouch that rattled like raindrops on a hollow log. “Close your eyes, and when I speak the words, I want you to tell me what images come into your mind.”Nia did as he said, though she was beginning to feel anxious. It was well known that druids practiced magic, and though it was fun to hear about magic in tales Nia never thought she’d be participating in it. There’s probably a lot more magic in Annwn, she thought before turning her attention back to the Archdruid. The hollow sounds from the pouch seemed unnaturally loud.“Journey,” said the voice of the Archdruid, and the images swimming behind her eyes reformed, becoming rain lashing her face while the sounds of wind and water roared in her ears.“I see… a storm, on the ocean I think,” she said, shivering. Though her family had not been sailors, she knew a storm at sea could be deadly.“Good.” More rattling. “What about choice?”Again, visions flickered rapidly before her. “I see… a cauldron, and then… animals? A raven, a fox, others? I’m not sure.”“That’s fine. One more… what does your heart say about fate?”At the word, Nia felt like she was swallowed by darkness. In the distance she saw something shining. A thread, golden-white in color, fragile and all alone out in the void. Four new threads appeared. One was a violet so dark it was nearly black, one bright red, one cool blue, and one brilliant green. These threads wove around the original thread, and as a weaver, Nia knew that they were much stronger together. This vividly colored thread spooled upward into a tapestry. It was so intricate and beautiful that she couldn’t form words to describe it. When the vision disappeared the loss felt like a blow. She relayed everything to the Archdruid in a shaking voice.“Hmmm,” he hummed for a moment. “You can open your eyes now. I am ready to give my judgment, if you are still willing to hear it.”His words didn’t bode well for Nia in her estimation, but she was determined to see this through. She sat up straight, set her jaw in a fierce line, and nodded.The Archdruid sighed. “This omen tells me that this journey is important for you, and perhaps for others. You will not, I think, find what seek, but you will find your destiny. Are you certain you wish to enter Annwn?”

Or, worse yet, killed?

Goodreads / Amazon / Barnes & Noble / iBooks / Kobo—EXCERPT:I stripped off the flimsy plastic gloves that came with the dye and tossed them in the garbage can. Jake was still Jake, but a new and improved version with black hair. The beard might make a difference but would take a week or two to grow.Still, I stepped back and walked around him to admire my work.He studied himself in a hand mirror. “I hate it,” he said. “I don’t look like me. But I guess that’s the point.”“It brings out the color of your eyes.” A little flattery might help. But that gave me another idea. Glasses. “Wait here.”Like there was any place for him to go in my small apartment. There were several pairs of my old glasses stuck in a drawer. The prescription would screw with his vision, but if they changed his appearance, we could pick up a pair of low-level cheaters from the drugstore.
The first ones I found sported pink frames, bought on a whim, worn two or three times. While they would be a fun joke to play on Jake, I didn’t think he’d find them amusing. I dug deeper. The perfect pair with heavy black frames was in there somewhere.
When I found them, he was pretending to comb his hair while staring at himself in the mirror. The lines on his forehead made it clear he wasn’t happy. I thrust the glasses at him.
He slipped them on and grinned. “I forgot how blind you are, Angel.” He squinted in the mirror. “I can’t see a darn thing!”My eyesight wasn’t that bad.He slipped them down his nose so he could peer over the top. “Makes me look like a professor.”Not the ones I had in college. He was better looking. But I wasn’t about to say that out loud and inflate Jake’s ego.

So different than the one she used to wipe my come off her face.“But oh,” she says, turning to look at her ass in the mirror. “Panty lines.”And then, before I even realize what she’s doing, she reaches inside the side slits along each thigh and pulls her panties down, kicking them off to the side.“Lyssa!”“This is why I never wear underwear,” she explains. “I need to see if it looks OK without them. Because with them—”“You are not walking down the aisle with no panties on.”“Oh, yes, I am. This is a no-panties dress and you picked it out. So you have to live with it.”My cock agrees with her. Because I’m fully fucking hard now.She glances down at it, then lifts her eyes to mine, and says, “I hope you’re not thinking—”“I’m not,” I say.“—because if you wanted to do dirty stuff in here, we could get caught—”“Don’t worry,” I say.“—and Margaret would be so disappointed in us if she caught the best man fucking his best friend’s fiancée.”“What?” I say, doing a double-take.“That’s what I told her. It’s kinda hot, isn’t it?”“No,” I say. “It’s kinda sad, actually.”“Well, it was a lie, anyway. So that just makes it hot.““Jesus, Lyssa.”She mouths the words Wild Thing at me, then reaches down to grab my cock.I push her away, but she backs me into the mirror with a bang.“Everything OK in there?” Margaret calls from the other side of the door.“Just fine,” I yell back, glaring at Lyssa.“Come on,” she whispers. “Wild thing, hold me tight.” And then she giggles.“That’s not even how the song goes—”But I stop. Because the next thing I know, she’s on her knees in front of me, the button popped on my jeans, the zipper down, and my cock is in her hands.“Lyssa,” I groan.“Tell me no,” she says, then sticks the head of my cock in her mouth, pressing her tongue up against my shaft, before I even have a chance.“Would you like another dress?” Margaret calls.Lyssa eases her mouth off my cock with a loud smacking sound and looks up at me. “What do you think, Mason? Do we need to try on another one?”“No,” I call back to Margaret. “We’ll let you know if we need anything else.”“I could wrap it up for you,” Margaret offers, just as Lyssa puts my cock back in her mouth and takes me deep into her throat.“Uh… we’re not quite…. oh, God… done yet,” I say.“OK, I’m right out here if you need anything.”“Great,” I groan. Because Lyssa is giving me a full-on head-bobbing messy blow-job. And against my better judgment, my fingers are now tangled in her hair, urging her on.She pulls off me, both her hands on my thighs, pushing me back, and then she stands again.“What are you doing?” I ask.“Making you choose.”“Choose what?”She backs up against the mirror and whispers, “You know why you chose the dress with two slits?”I already know where this is going.“Because I can do this.” She pulls the center portion of material aside and flashes her bare pussy at me. “And you,” she says, grabbing my shirt and pulling me towards her so my cock bumps into her leg, “can put that inside me and I don’t even have to take my clothes off.”“I’m not gonna fuck you,” I whisper back.Why not? she silently mouths and simultaneously pouts.“Because you’re not mine, Lyssa.”She sighs. Frowning. Giving up. Because she leans back against the wall and wilts. “I want to be yours.”“You can’t be,” I say.“Why not?”“Because you’re engaged. And I’m just… I’m just your fucking babysitter.”She slides her hand between her legs, then withdraws it and places the tip of her glistening wet finger against my lips.I close my eyes and open my mouth, my cock totally in charge now. I suck on her finger the way she was just sucking on my cock.“Please,” she whispers. So low, I almost don’t hear her. “I promise to be good in every other way if you just… make me feel loved right now.”I pull her finger out of my mouth and say, “Lyssa,” feeling sad for her.“We can pretend,” she says. “Right?” She places both her hands on my cheeks and leans in. Kisses me.I kiss her back.I know I shouldn’t. I feel the guilt of a best man fucking his best friend’s fiancée, and I don’t even care.If her name is Lyssa Baylor then I want to fuck my best friend’s fiancée.“Everybody pretends,” she whispers past my lips. “It’s all fake, Mason. So who cares, anyway?”She pulls her dress aside again, reaching for my cock. And when she tugs on it, I do the unthinkable. I take two steps forward and we’re not even two steps apart. So now my chest is pressing up against her breasts, forcing her against the wall. She lifts up her leg and I brush the middle section of satin dress over the side of her thigh to get it out of the way.And after that, it takes no effort at all to slip my cock inside her.The one thing I told myself I wouldn’t do.I would eat her out, and let her blow me. And kiss her, and suck her nipples, and smack her ass, and all that other stuff. And it would be OK if I just didn’t fuck her.And now I’m fucking her.In her wedding dress.

Like now. He’s breathing hard and looking around the parking lot. We’re shielded from view behind his cruiser and my car. We can’t see anything, and no one can see us.I shift under him and rest my knees beside his hips. His arms are braced over me and I take a second to admire the view.“Grady?”He looks down. Our lips are only a few inches apart. “That was your Gremlin backfiring, wasn’t it?”“Afraid so.”He snorts and I grin.I wiggle and shift until my hips are lined up with his. I’m pressed into the hot pavement, and pebbles are poking my back—but I don’t ever want to get up. And apparently, Grady doesn’t want to either. He drops his forearms onto the pavement and cages me in.We press together, my breasts against his chest, my stomach against his rock-hard abdomen, my you know what against his zipper. Oh wow. I really like his zipper.I arch into him.“Ah, Gina?” His breath is coming out faster. There’s heat rolling off the thick ridge of him. He’s hard. Real hard. My eyes widen. His eyes narrow and his shoulders tense up.“Yes, Sheriff?”“We should get up.” He starts to rise, but as he does his joystick rubs against me and I moan. He stills. His jaw clenches and his eyes flare. Then they go all unfocused and he ever so slowly rubs his length along me.

After graduate degrees, global managerial positions and the nine to five grind, they decided it was more fun to bring joy to the world through happily ever afters. They deliver smart, strong heroines, and heroes who love them. You'll get that romance read afterglow...every single time. Better yet, their books are short and sweet - because let's be honest, sometimes quickies are best. They love their families, their golden retrievers, and bingeing on ice cream. If you want happiness, sweet fun, and steamy romance then Alexandra Banks is for you!
