I wanted to just drop a bitch....
Tonight you will lie down to sleep at 9pm.
Until then, you will not watch television or look at the computer. No screens. No books. No phone calls. No magazines. You may write in your journal, eat, and take care of the house. I own your boredom.
You will take your clothes off as soon as you lock the door. Turn the heat up to eighty two. Shower. Remain naked for the rest of the night. I own your nudity.
Lie down on the floor at the foot of the bed at 9 p.m., no sooner or later. You will sleep there. You may lie on the rug or the floor. I own your comfort.
Don’t touch yourself. I own your pleasure.
Don’t look in the box. I mean it. I own your curiosity.
~From Separation Games

So it's a sign from heaven. Canaries need to BR.

Sit here, so I can whisper in your ear. Want a cup of coffee? No? All right. Let me get to the point.
This book had me on pins and needles. It was...you know that feeling you get when you're reading and you're kind of....how do I put this? Soaring? Like you're reading the words and you feel like you're in front of an orchestra that's being conducted masterfully? And your heart gets...like "literally"....a centimeter higher in your chest?
(A centimeter may not sound like a lot but your heart goes where it goes so that little bit is a big deal. I'm trying to give a sense of metaphor and a sense of grounded reality at the same time so bear with me)
Well, this book had all that.
And you're getting up off the chair, saying -- "It's the first in a series, I'll wait."
(pats chair)
Hear me out. I'm going to tell you how to do this, because I understand your dilemma. I do.
Buy this book. Read it through. All 600 pages. DO NOT READ CHAPTER 30. Just sit with Chapter 29 and a big shit-eating grin on your face and close the book. Let the glory and joy and happiness sink in. Let the last chapter sit for another day.
When book 2 comes out, buy it or don't. Your call. But if you do? THEN you read chapter 30 and you'll be propelled into the next book, heart and soul.

The first time I doubted my decision to marry her, I wasn’t sure if I was sleeping or not. How had I missed the manipulation? The calculation? She’d needed me to save her family business. But I was going to save it before she offered herself to me. Way before I asked her to marry me.
It wasn’t that.
I owned her. She was mine.
But no.
Vulnerable. Powerless. I couldn’t hold what I possessed. The feeling was freefall. The earth coming into sharp focus as I hurtled toward it at the acceleration of gravity.
I don’t need to punish you to paddle you. I don’t need an excuse. You’re mine, and I can paddle you when I please. Because I feel like it. Now bend over the table, arms out, palms down. Do you need something to bite?
The first night of the rest of my life, I imagined breaking her. I imagined her crying for mercy. For release. For me. The smell of her skin. The taste of her tears. The color of the parts of her that got my cruelest and kindest attention. How would she beg for my forgiveness? How would I take her then? Gently? Would I bend her body? Her mind?
My fantasies crossed into psychopathic. Anger and dominance had no place together. Revenge and sadism never played in the same scene. The idea was to cause pain, not damage, and rage clouded a Dominant’s judgment.
Yet the scenes I imagined with such clarity were familiar. Years before, I’d managed them all with utter control and complete consent.
The first time my wires crossed, I scared myself, and the fear was cathartic.

THIS IS THE FIRST PART OF A DUET.
Part two comes out Jan 3rd!

Here's tomorrow's:

Don't post to Facebook :) Keep it fun.
(this was supposed to be a two second popover then I had to upload ALL the teasers to my website so if I wanted to link here I could do it)
(shakes fist at goodreads)

(swoon)
I love you guys.
OK Here's a Marriage Games teaser.
PLEASE NOTE:
This is a scene from Adam's PAST. I don't like spoilers but his wife in the book is DIANA and there's no fucking cheating in this book.
It's just my line. Me no crossy.

I'll post here too. But we can't do polls in GR. If you're on FB go vote!

“You can really hurt her.” Charlie stamped his cane. “Do you understand? Her mind. You can break her mind. Is that what you want?”
“It’s not. I’m not going to do anything she can’t handle.”
“Have you ever spent more than a few hours with a sub who wasn’t trained and willing?”
“She’s willing.”
“She. Is. Not. She can’t consent cleanly. You’re holding her life’s work hostage.”
“Hostage? She’s holding me hostage. She has my guts in her hands. I don’t care about the company, I care about her. She’s my life, do you understand? Have you ever loved a woman? Have you ever held her at night so tight because you couldn’t sleep thinking something might happen to her? Have you ever built a future around a woman? Ever thought of every tomorrow, every year, every decade with her? Dreamed of your old age holding her hand? I can only function with her in my life. I can only breathe if I know she’s there. I gave her my fucking soul and she threw it away. Months ago, maybe years ago. She made a decision to throw me away. She’s prepared for this divorce and I’m swinging in the wind. Raw. With nothing. No defenses. Now what am I supposed to do?” I stood up and threw my coat over my shoulders. “This is not about money. It’s not about some publishing company. Not for me. If I don’t do this I have no chance of recovery. I’m as good as dead.”

Nope. Every writer gets their own story and they publish themselves under the Kindle Worlds umbrella. You create your own account with Amazon and Amazon pays you directly.


What is it?
A Drazen fanfic world.
Have you wondered what it would be like if Jonathan and Monica met in a small town?
If Paulie had lived and found love?
What the deal was with Darren?
What if Jonathan was a shifter? Vampire? Werecat?
And what if you could write these stories, publish them on Amazon and make money doing it?

I want to open this world with ten stories, written by YOU.
If you're an author who would like to see if my fans would like your work (and maybe bring them to your catalog) or if you've been thinking of writing but didn't know where to start, or if you want to make a little extra cash, this could be a thing for you.
I will have no editorial control over your work. You have to conform to Amazon's guidelines, but they're pretty liberal. You keep your characters. You control your story.
We're looking at a 7/28 release. Stories need to be 10K+ words (even ONE WORD over) and I thought I should give you the heads up.
I'll have many more details, but for the time being you can check out the Greyslake world to see how it rolls.
https://kindleworlds.amazon.com/world...…
hope you'll join me on this fabulous journey! I cannot wait to see what you perverts come up with!

Preorders on Amazon suck for reasons I won't bore you with. So it's going to be a live release. If you want an email when Margie goes live, you can sign up here...
