Snippet – Rule One

Rule one of dating a dragon sorceress: It’s best to save the affectionate threats for when her dragon’s not standing behind you. 🐉

"Did you just compliment me, Captain?"

"No." Maria tried to wipe the blood from Em's eye with her thumb, but the steady flow made it impossible. "I was complimenting myself, actually—for my brilliant instincts in hiring you."

Maria ripped part of her sleeve and tried to use the fabric to slow the blood flow, but it soaked through before she even found the source.

It was in Em's hair, on her neck...

Maria jerked her hands back. "Em, you keep bleeding!"

"Mm." Em closed her eyes and swayed. "It's just a head wound."

"Just?" Maria caught her by the arms. "I'm going to kill you."

Maria didn't realize her mistake until the dragon behind her growled.

Goddess of the Sea

I shared this snippet from Goddess of the Sea (Lesbians, Pirates, & Dragons: Book 2) for the #lesficfri theme, “hair” —because I’m sure blood-soaked hair was exactly the direction everyone else went with this. 😅

Anyway, I hope you’re all doing well this week. ❤️

I’m finally feeling better (after what feels like a year), and I’m planning on sending out our newsletter tomorrow. So, keep an eye out for that. ❤️

Snippet – Hungry Dragon

Scariest teenager Maria’s ever met. 🐉

Excerpt on green dragon-scale background:

“Emryn begged me to let him eat her,” Em assured Maria, after she'd taken a sip of rum, “but, you know, he's always hungry. He has the appetite of an adolescent. Well, he basically *is* one—in dragon years. He's only seven hundred years old.”

Maria sputtered in shock, “Seven *hundred?*”

Snippet – Touch

Another PTSD scene—but Maria’s, this time, instead of Em’s. 🖤

Background: The sea at night.

Snippet:

Emilia reached out—but hesitated.
"Do you mind if I touch you?"

Maria's hands muffled her laughter. "Never, darling. I never mind when you touch me."

Snippet – Don’t Worry

So romantic. 😅💙

Emilia stepped closer to her arrogant, *human* captain. "Don't worry. If blackmailing me, tricking me, and threatening to kill me wasn't enough to stop me from loving you, a siren princess won't be either."

Snippet – Shadow

I didn’t think I was going to share a snippet this week because I’ve been a bit depressed. But it usually lifts my mood a little, so… 🖤

The first naval sailor to notice the shadow moving above the trees screamed out, "Dragon!"

The other shipmen screamed and ran for cover, but the stride of a human simply couldn't compete with the flap of a dragon's wings.

Valentine’s Day Snippet

What’s so unusual about being raised by dragons?

"We had vastly different childhoods."

Maria raised both eyebrows. "It was my sex life that told you that?" she said. "Not the dragons?"

Em turned to frown at her. "No, no, no. You have it all wrong." She held up her hand. "The dragons were the most normal part of my childhood!"

Maria couldn't help but laugh. "You're only proving my point, love."

Snippet – Change of Heart

Maria loves being the bad influence. 🏴‍☠️

"Maybe, then, you'd have a change of heart."

Emilia stared blankly at her. "You want me to get drunk and be okay with murder?"

Maria spread out her arms. "Isn't that what piracy is?"

This snippet from Goddess of the Sea (Lesbians, Pirates, & Dragons: Book 2) was for the #lesficfri theme, “heart,” and I definitely meant to add it here on Friday or Saturday, not midway into the next week. But you know…depression spirals. 😅

I hope you’re all holding up okay. 💙

I feel like I’m saying that a lot lately, but I mean it.

Sending love. 💙

Snippet – Breathing Fire

What’s great about this is that you know Em’s discussed it with her dragons at some point. 😅

Maria leaned forward conspiratorially. "And it wasn't to breathe fire at my quartermaster?"

"Well... no," Emilia said. "Dragon sorcerers can't breathe fire. Some of them can wield fire, but we can't breathe it." She waved her hands. "Our bodies are too soft and fleshy."
