BLURB:
When
Dr. Nick Gardiner goes on the run from a psychotic ex and ends up at Olympic
Cove, the last thing he expects to find is his friend Ian living with two
redheaded demigods and learning how to be a storm god. Adding to the confusion
is a wounded merman named Aidan who washes up in the cove, requiring Nick’s
professional help. As it turns out, the handsome mer and his partner Liam have
other plans for the ER doctor — to claim him as their agapetos, their
destined mate, and fulfill his need to submit.A chance encounter at a local junk shop reveals that Nick has his own role to play in the battle against the insane Nereid Thetis. Under the reluctant mentorship of the centaur Chiron, Nick must master the use of the Rod of Asclepius if he wants to rescue his mates from a ghastly fate and help Ian save the planet.

EXCERPT
Hefting
the Rod, Nick headed into the master bedroom and put it away in the closet. The
bed looked insanely soft and comfortable, and he felt an intense urge to do a
faceplant into the coverlet and let sleep take him away.
Someone
cleared their throat, and he turned to see Aidan and Liam in the bedroom
doorway. “Where should we sleep, Nick?” Aidan asked.
That
was a good question. He scrubbed at his face, trying to think. “Do you need to
go back into the water?”
“No,
we’re good for a day or two at least.”
“Okay.
I guess there’s always the guest rooms.”
A
flicker of disappointment ran through those green eyes, but Aidan nodded.
“We’ll let you get some sleep.” He turned to leave.
“No.”
Nick’s
eyebrows went up. “Excuse me?”
“No,”
Liam repeated, calm but unmovable. “We’re supposed to be your bodyguards,
according to Lord Chiron. That won’t be easy if we’re sleeping in separate rooms.
We need to sleep in here with you.”
Annoyance
bubbled to the surface, tempered by the allure of curling up between his mers.
“Look, no offense, but I don’t think that’s a good idea,” he said, trying to
sound firm. “I’m really tired, and I don’t think I’m up for anything tonight.”
Liam
stepped even closer. “We’re not supposed to leave you alone,” he said, hazel
blue eyes shadowed in the twilit room. “Listen to me, chuisle. You’re
exhausted, and understandably so. You were threatened by your former lover, and
then you had to deal with one of the most powerful gods on the planet, followed
immediately by a long study session. You’ve done enough for the day. Let us
help you relax.”
That
low voice, like a cello with its rich intonation, was impossible to resist.
“Just relax?”
Liam
smiled. “More if you’re in the mood. But it’s up to you.”
He
didn’t want to admit it, but he was already getting aroused at the thought of
both of them touching him. “I … okay. Yes.”
The
tall mer took his hands, lifting each one to his mouth in turn and kissing it.
“Yes, Maighstir,” he said with a smile.
It
sounded like ‘master’ with a Gaelic lilt making it into ‘maister’. Nick’s last
bit of resistance disappeared, and he felt boneless with pleasure at the
anticipation of what was to come. “Yes, Maighstir.”
“Mm.
Good boy.”
***
Liam
let Nick’s hands go. They dropped to the human’s sides and Nick’s dark head
tilted, exposing the long line of muscle and tendon just waiting to be
decorated with bite marks and sucking kisses. Oh, their chuisle knew how
to lure attention.
But
Liam knew how to wait. Instead of putting his mouth to Nick’s offered throat,
he whispered, “Now, we’re going to take off your clothes.”
A
shiver ran through Nick at that. Liam paused, trying to judge if it had been caused
by lust or fear. The reality of the situation came back to him—the last time
Nick had played with anyone, his trust had been shattered and his body damaged.
They were swimming through shark-infested waters here, and one wrong move could
drive their mate even further away from them.
He bent
close to Nick’s ear again. “If something upsets you, you will tell us
immediately, do you understand? We’ll sit down tomorrow and have a long talk
about what you can and cannot do, and I swear to you that Aidan and I will
respect your limits. But tonight is purely for your pleasure and comfort.”
He
heard Nick swallow, and the shivering died down. “Good. Now, take a deep
breath.”
Their
mate’s ribcage expanded, filling with the air all his kind needed. “Another.”
Liam ran his hands over Nick’s shoulders, enjoying the feel of the curved
muscle there. “Good. I’m going to take off your shirt.”
Moving
with deliberation, he slid all the buttons through their holes, tugging the
smooth fabric off and tossing it to the side. He took in a soft breath,
admiring Nick’s body. His muscles weren’t as pronounced as a mer’s, but his
back and shoulders had beautifully delineated hollows and rises that implied
strength and agility. Liam’s mouth watered with the sudden urge to bite into one
firm shoulder.
Instead,
he ran just the pads of his fingertips across Nick’s skin, tracing the outline
of his upper body. On the other side Aidan had stepped closer, running his own
fingers along Nick’s chest and abs. Their mate made a soft, hungry noise deep
in his throat, and Aidan flashed that irresistible smile. “I think you like
this, chuisle.”
“Mmm.”
Liam
leaned close, nipping Nick’s earlobe again. “Use your words,” he ordered
gently.
“Yes, I
like this, Maighstir.” The response was soft, almost dreamy.
Liam
caught Aidan’s eye, then glanced down meaningfully. At the same time he slid
his hands down Nick’s arms, gently ringing his wrists and drawing them behind
his back. “You’re still wearing too much.”
“Far
too much,” Aidan agreed, sinking to his knees. Liam watched over Nick’s
shoulder as the other mer started undoing Nick’s belt, teasingly drawing the
leather through the loops, before easing down his zipper. Nick made another
noise, deeper this time.
He
likes being restrained and controlled. Liam felt his own
desire rise, and firmly corralled it. Tonight is for him, to show him he
belongs with us.
Nick
gasped suddenly, twitching in his grip. Glancing down, Liam saw his other mate
planting an open-mouthed kiss at the base of Nick’s hardening cock through his
underwear.
“Did I
say you could do that, boy?” he asked Aidan, putting a growl into his voice.
The
green-eyed mer leaned back, face shadowed in the room’s dim light. “I’m sorry, Maighstir.
I couldn’t resist a taste.”
Liam
was tempted to correct him, but their focus had to remain on Nick. “I’ll deal
with you later,” he rumbled, and saw goosebumps rise on Nick’s skin. The idea
obviously appealed. “Hm. Would you like that, chuisle? I could tie you
to the headboard and make you watch me punish Aidan. I’d bend him over the end
of the bed and turn his ass a lovely red as you watched. Then I’d put him on
his hands and knees and fuck him while he looked at you.”
This
time both his mates groaned at the image he’d created. “I wouldn’t let him come
for a long time,” Liam murmured, enjoyed the sensation of his own cock plumping
out and pressing against the fabric of his shorts. “And every time I thrust
into him, his mouth would come closer and closer to your cock, almost close
enough to suck it. But never quite close enough. And all the time I was fucking
him, all you could do is sit there, hard and aching so badly, and watch us.”
Nick’s
head dropped back onto his shoulder. “Please, Maighstir,” he whispered.
“Mm.
Such a good boy.” He nodded at Aidan, and the other mer finished taking Nick’s
trousers down, then his briefs. “If you’re very good and earn it, I may let you
come tonight. No promises, though.”
BIO
Nicola Cameron is
an expatriate Chicagoan who has lived in England, Canada, Holland, and Sweden,
and keeps a confusing amalgamation of languages in her head as a result.
Currently located in the clavicle of Texas, she has finally mastered the proper
use of "y'all," much to her Chicago family's dismay.
Despite a healthy
interest in sex since puberty, it wasn't until 2012 that Nicola decided to try
writing about it. As it turned out, the skills she picked up during her SF
writing career transferred rather nicely to erotic romance. When not writing,
she wrangles cats, smooches her husband, makes dolls of dubious and
questionable identity, and thanks almighty Cthulhu that she doesn’t have to
work for a major telecommunications company any more (because there’s BDSM, and
then there’s just plain torture...).
