#WIP-it-up-Wednesday #CorbinsBend Exile to Unity

Hello everyone, welcome to WIP It Up Wednesday. Thanks to Melody Parks for getting this hop going. I'm only sorry I'm late to the party :( This is my first time participating, so apologies if I get the format wrong.

There is a rumour going around that we're permitted to include published work so I am sharing a little of my latest release Exile to Unity. Here Jim has threatened (promised?) his wife a spanking before they go out to dinner....

He knew she’d be jittery with excitement. Jim liked to intersperse punishments with erotic spankings as he knew Ange reacted so differently to those. They excited her beyond belief. It seemed he could leather her senseless in the name of erotica, whereas the minute punishment came into it, her pain threshold went out the window. Putting her make up on, Ange smiled her greeting as he re-emerged from the shower,still wet and wrapped only in a towel. She looked lovely. Jim admired how she had kept her figure, unlike him. He knew he was looking better these days after his sessions in the gym, but he’d certainly let himself go for a time. He liked the thought of going out with this babe on his arm and the realization made him glow with happiness.

“I don’t know how you do it, but you’re even lovelier now than when we first met,” Jim said wrapping her in his arms, kissing the back of Ange’s head.

“And you’re still full of the old charm, but thanks, anyway,” she laughed. 
“Open your legs.”

Ange complied and he slipped his finger in under her dress. As expected, she was soaking wet. “Dirty bitch,” he teased, making her blush and smile. “Go lean over the bed and pull your dress up above your waist.”

As she did, he went to the wardrobe and pulled out a belt, one Ange had a particular fondness for, a stainless steel butt plug and a tube of lube.

Blurb: Exile to Unity, Corbin’s Bend Book Three

When their preference for BDSM becomes embarrassingly public, Angela and Jim O’Brien decide to start afresh in Corbin’s Bend, a community based on a common ethos of spanking, a place where Ange hopes they can belong.

Ange soon learns that in this new environment,  Jim is not beyond chastising her with a good sound spanking as the couple face their past demons and try to recover the closeness they once shared.  New challenges soon face the couple.  Will their difficulties destroy them or can their move be what Ange initially hoped for, an exile to unity?

Here's another snippet from His Forever Summer

 She looked at Kieran; he was relaxing with his eyes shut, soaking up the sun. Instinctively, she took her ice cold water bottle and dumped it over him. He shot up, eyes blazing, and Carla decided the best thing was to laugh and run, make a game of it and let Bethany and Kirk have their conversation in private. She took off. Kieran dashed after her. She was laughing so hard he caught up easily and cornered her.  Once trapped, he backed her right up against the wall. Carla started wrestling him off but he defeated her by tickle torture, something Carla couldn’t stand.  He then lifted her up, threw her over his shoulder and walked over to the pool. He placed a playful swat on her behind, and unceremoniously dumped her into the freezing cold pool.

                Laughing at how indignant she was, he held out his hand to pull her out. Just as she was reaching the side of the pool, Carla kicked against the wall, pulling herself, and Kieran back down into the water. For a moment, they were entwined in the water. In spite of the cold, there was a heat between their bodies. Kieran’s eyes were dark. He pulled her toward him and she knew what was on his mind. She was not going there, not with a non spanko. She splashed cold water in his face, laughed and extricated herself from his grasp.   Once again, her acting without thinking had nearly landed her in an awkward place. Carla vowed to be more careful around Kieran, so he wouldn’t think she was giving him the come on. The first man in forever that she wasn’t interested in, and he tried to make a move on her. Carla had to laugh at the irony of it. 

Thanks for visiting and participating. Hope you're lucky in the prize giveaway. Don't forget it closes at 11:59 ET tomorrow.

Who wants some more details on Kieran and Carla's first meeting? What? No one? Grr...well I'm going to force them on you anyway because I am no good at taking a hint :)

When she got to Jim’s house, she could hear the TV. Dammit she had forgotten that Kieran was arriving. She should have picked up the blueprints last night like she was supposed to, but she just wasn’t in the mood for being sociable.  Well, she’d pay for it now, she realised with a sigh as she rang the bell, rather than using the house key.

                A tall, lean, unshaven man opened the door wearing only a pair of cut-off jeans. He smiled lazily, sweeping the door wide, totally unperturbed that she had caught him half naked.

                “The lovely Carla, I presume?”  Carla felt her face heat. Was he laughing at her? What had Jim told him about her? Or maybe he was one of these Irish rogues she had heard about, flattering a woman into the sack. Well, he could save it; no way was she bedding Jim O’Brien’s brother. Even if he was gorgeous….and muscular….and had molten chocolate eyes. Not even the cleft in his chin was going to tempt her. Or the dimples in his cheeks. Or indeed the twinkle in his eye. No! Stop it! Especially not the twinkle in his eye, she mentally scolded, you know a twinkle is not good news.

                “I’m here to pick up some blueprints,” she said, quite abruptly. “They’re in the office apparently.”

                “Ah, that would be my bedroom now,” he said, eyes dancing with mischief. Carla gave a flustered reply, and headed toward the office. It smelled of man and beer. Definitely one to watch: drinks too much and enjoys flirting, she decided. She almost felt relieved.  As if writing him off as husband material gave her a sense of freedom. She didn’t have to impress.  She located the envelope and returned downstairs, deliberately averting her gaze from the open door of the master bedroom. She didn’t like to think what went on in there. She wished she could hate them, or even sneer at them as a miserable couple. But Carla didn’t have that luxury.  She headed toward the front door, not even bothering to go to say goodbye, but Kieran’s voice halted her in her tracks. She paused until he reached her.

                “Will you have a coffee with me? My charming family abandoned me and left me to my own devices on my first day here and I don’t like talking to myself. The replies are most unsatisfactory.”

                Although she still got the feeling he was having a joke at her expense it seemed rude to refuse so she went to the kitchen and filled a mug of coffee.

                “Pancakes?” he offered.

                “No, I’m dieting,” she said too quickly. He eyed her up and down.

                “You’re officially mad. Have you looked in a mirror lately? You’ve a beautiful figure.”

                That’s it, he’s definitely mocking, she decided. He was becoming safer territory by the minute.  Two could play at that game.

                “And you must be pretty comfortable with your body, since you like to entertain half naked,” she retorted.

                It was Kieran’s turn to look flustered. “Shit, sorry. I forgot, be right back.” Carla listened to the sound of his bare feet on the steps as he took them two at a time. She felt smug at making Kieran feel as uncomfortable as he made her. When he returned he had a crumpled tee shirt on.  He made some remark about his poor packing skills and not having got round to ironing. His embarrassment was quite endearing. It put them on a level footing.

Any comments here will enter you in a draw for a package of goodies from Ange or a $5 Blushing Books giftcard.

Happy blitzing!

In honour of the blitz, I am of course sticking with the Corbin's Bend theme, with a snippet from my next novella, tentatively titled His Forever Summer. This is the next 8 consecutive sentences of when Carla meets Kieran for the first time. She has already made up her mind to have absolutely nothing to do with Jim O'Brien's younger brother... The preceeding 8 can be read here

              Not even the cleft in his chin was going to tempt her. Or the dimples in his cheeks. Or indeed the twinkle in his eye. No! Stop it! Especially not the twinkle in his eye, she mentally scolded, you know a twinkle is not good news.

                “I’m here to pick up some blueprints,” she said, quite abruptly. “They’re in the office apparently.”

Horny Hump Day Exile to Unity (Corbins Bend) Playing him well.

Thank you for joining me on Horny Hump Day.

This is from a scene in Exile to Unity, my Corbin's Bend novella, book three in the series. Each novella is by a different author, and each can be enjoyed as a stand alone book, or as part of a series.

Excerpt

She massaged his shaft with one hand and pressed on his balls with the other, reducing the aching pressure.

God, that woman really does know how to play me well, he thought, as he felt his body come back under some control. 

But still her scent on his upper lip was playing with his mind, egging him on, forcing him to claim her.

#SatSpanks A time to submit in Exile to Unity #Corbins Bend

Welcome back to another Saturday Spankings. Hope you all had a great week. After you have done your rounds of hot snippet, don't forget if you have some time to spare that there is a book launch party on Spanking Romance Reviews for Katherine Deane's new book, Coach's Discipline with fun and prizes a plenty.

This is a snippet from Exile to Unity, my first Corbin's Bend Novella. Don't forget to watch out for news of my next one, His Forever Summer either here or on the Corbin's Bend blog.

*****
Jim has been trying to get Ange to come around to the idea of domestic discipline and so far she is fighting it all the way. However, when she realises her marriage could be at stake she suddenly agrees to it, without explaining her reasons. She volunteers for a spanking along with a willing apology that had been a bone of contention a short while earlier.



He felt her stiffen as he raised his hand, but now that they had cleared the air, and she had offered her body so willingly, it became more of an erotic spanking than a punishment. He started off with a slow warm up, and allowed her body to relax and feel the sensations. As he spread the heat all around her beautifully rounded globes, he watched the pink flush spread and her body become open. Only then did he spank harder. Gradually he increased the heat, and as she struggled, he paused for a moment, before starting again. He could almost physically see the endorphins enter her body and he knew he could strike harder still, while still keeping connected without a struggle. Harder and harder he slapped, until he felt her give her body over to him completely. He was surprised to see Ange’s tears flowing and her shoulders shake in a silent sob.

Poor Jim. He would need to be psychic to understand her reaction to what would normally have been a pretty pleasurable experience. One of those occasions where you wish the other half came equipped with an automatic translation device....
