Hello, lovelies! It’s time to warm up your palms for some Saturday Spankings blog hop action! Today I’ve got a scene from later in ‘Taken by the Enemy’ where Emmie clashes with Lucian again. They just had a huge argument, and Emmie (as usual) can’t control her mouth. This blog hop requires short snippets so I know this cuts off just as it gets juicy, but let me tell you… she ends up with quite the warm ass.
NEWS: ‘Taken by the Enemy’ is officially done and in the hands of my editor! It will be with the publisher by the end of the weekend and so I hope to be able to make more official announcements about that partnership soon. Until then… enjoy!

“You’re a bastard.” Emmie glared at him, well aware of the threat he’d made to reveal her name.
Lucian stepped close to her, his voice low and dark, “That’s what you really think of me?”
“Yes.”
“Then maybe you should leave.” Lucian’s body was tense with restrained anger, and she knew it, but she couldn’t stop herself from pushing him.
“Maybe I should,” she spoke quietly. “Maybe I should go find one of the free men and see if they treat me any better.”
He grabbed her by the shoulders and spun her around, slamming her back against the wall of his house, the whole structure shaking with the force. He hissed close to her face, “You want to go fuck someone else?”
“Maybe I do!”
Lucian growled, his grip painfully tight on her skin. “You think they’d treat you any differently? You think they’d take your smart mouthed comments in stride?”
“I bet there’s at least one of them that would like my smart mouth, it just may take me trying out a few before I find them.” She leaned her head forward, meeting his gaze at close range. “Maybe I’ll need to try a lot of them.”
There was a dark, lurking rage behind his eyes, but his voice was deadly quiet. “You have no idea how gentle I’ve been with you.”

*shivers!* He can be so delightfully scary sometimes, but Emmie challenges him – which may be just what he’s been looking for. Who knows? You’ll have to keep coming back to see! For now, check out these other lovely authors on the blog hop below.
Jebus! I’m not sure challenge is the right word for what she’s doing. I think clearly she is taunting him. Look out girl, I have a feeling your in for quite a time with this guy.
Great suspense here Jennifer. ☺
I agree! I think that even if she’s not aware of it in this scene, she wants him to react to the taunt. Thanks Melody! :)
Melody has it exactly right. She is taunting him into taking action, and he’ll no doubt do it, too. Great excerpt, Jennifer
Aww, thanks Kathryn! Trust me, there is quite a bit of action after this outburst. ^_^
Oh my goodness! She is really poking the bear! This bad boy is burning a hole in MY iPad. I think tonight’s the night. Can’t wait!
He burned a hole in my brain for weeks, so I get it! It’s off to the publisher! *squeals*
The dark rage behind his eyes coupled with the deadly quiet voice? YIKES!! Great scene :)
Awww thank you! Yeah, he’s intense. It’s hot. Haha!
Ooh, this is intense. Well done, Jennifer!
Thank you! I love it too!
