My Tuesday Teaser this week is from Chained Hearts! “You will address me as Jah’lar and never, ever tell anyone what you see in me, understood?” Nick glared at Jah’lar, refusing to agree. The slight change in Jah’lar’s facial structure, how his eyes flickered from one color to another for a few seconds, were details Nick knew he alone saw. Those small signs told him it wasn’t the drug affecting his breathing. It was Jah’lar himself. Jah’lar’s eyes brightened from their original pale gray to a sharp, bright, deep blue for a few seconds. Nick leaned forward, gasping for air, but Jah’lar’s hand on his head prevented him from doubling over and collapsing to the floor. His throat constricted even more, pain flaring along its length as if Nick was being stabbed with tiny needles from the inside. “Let me try again. I’ll make it simple for you. I am nothing more than a regular man named Jah’lar, understood?” Vision graying out, Nick saw bits of twinkling light at the very edges of his periphery. “Understood?” Jah’lar’s voice was soft, kind, even. He skimmed his fingers over Nick’s hair, each time moving down and back up Nick’s neck. Nick nodded once. Jah’lar leaned down, warm breath blowing against Nick’s ear. “That’s it, not so difficult. I’ll take care of you.” Chained Hearts is available in eBook and Paperback.
