In Julie Cox\u2019s <i>Capricious: A Texan Tale of Love and Magic<\/i>, satyr and Fox Pass native Luke is settled into a comfortable routine of drinking beer with his best friend, cultivating his small plot of land, recharging the raw sexual energy that fuels his magic, and willfully ignoring his feelings for his friend Sally. But Luke\u2019s daily life is thrown into disarray when he becomes the target of mysterious enemies who won\u2019t hesitate to hurt his fellow myth-folk to get to him. With the help of his friends, and some earthshaking satyr magic, Luke works to protect his town\u2014and sort out his feelings for Sally\u2014before it\u2019s too late.<\/p>\n<p><strong>About the author:<\/strong> Julie Cox is the author of <a href=\"https:\/\/circlet.com\/?page_id=350\"><strong>Chasing Tail<\/strong><\/a> and numerous short stories in Circlet Press erotica anthologies.

The satyr kicked the door closed behind him, picked the merrow up, and set her on the desk, a steel counter long ago commandeered from the kitchen. She wrapped her thighs around his hips, letting her waitressing skirt hike up high. He kissed her fiercely, the practiced kiss of someone who knew exactly how the other person kissed, how she liked to be touched\u2013lips against her ears and her neck, hands cupping her breasts and then moving under her shirt and bra to stroke her hard nipples. His cock throbbed against the front of his jeans, and she unzipped his pants, pushed his boxers far enough down to get her hand around his cock, and began stroking him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cChrist, girl,\u201d he gasped, \u201cyou\u2019re cutting right to the chase today, huh?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI don\u2019t have long,\u201d she said. \u201cI gotta get back to the floor and keep an eye on things. Maybe we\u2019ll have time for foreplay another day. But today, baby, I want you to take me like crazy. No pretense, no long work-up.\u201d She reached up and grabbed his horns behind his head, soliciting a soft sound of want; she clearly knew exactly what that did to him. \u201cWe both know what we want, a fast and furious fuck before heading back into the fray. I been thinking about how I was gonna fuck you since you walked in.\u201d He gasped when she pressed against his cock. \u201cI took my panties off before I called you back here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>His cock against her bare, slick pussy, he needed no further encouragement. He slid his hands underneath her rump and entered her in one smooth motion. She cried out, a wonderful noise, and moved against him as he thrust into her, giving her all his length in each stroke. With each thrust she made the most delightful noises in his ear, her pussy squeezing tight. She was so hot around him\u2013he loved how she felt, how wet she got, the silky texture of her skin. Her clit was positioned so that he rubbed against it with every motion. Not all women were built like that; she was lucky. Still, she slid a hand between them, pressed her clit harder against his thrusting cock, and her legs shook, the pleasure sending tremors through her already.<\/p>\n<p>He sped up, harder, listening with rapt pleasure as she gasped repeatedly and bit his shoulder to stifle her cries, her body shaking as she came. He didn\u2019t give her long to recover. He unbuttoned her shirt partway, roughly brought her breasts out above the fabric, and ducked his head to suck her nipples. He drew out of her and flicked her clit gently between his fingers until he felt her starting to move again, wriggling with want, with the absence of him. He took a condom out of the drawer where she kept them and slipped it on, well practiced, with one hand. Turning her around, he pushed her down against the desk.<br \/>\n\u201cOh man!\u201d she said, and he felt her jolt, the steel cold against her breasts, but she didn\u2019t pull away. He kicked her legs apart, held her against the desk, and rammed into her. She yelled, her body bucking with pleasure, raising her hips to take in more of him. He had her, thoroughly and vigorously, and she reveled in being had. She called his name, asked for more, thrust back against him. He gave her more.<\/p>\n<p>When she came this time, her juices ran down her legs, and her voice was ragged, spent. He came hard, his body rocked with pleasure, and his knees threatened to buckle. Only when she was quiet again, relaxing under his hands, did he reluctantly pull out of her. She stood, a languid, loopy smile on her face.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHell, you\u2019re good,\u201d she said. \u201cI needed, so much, to get fucked like that. Thank you, Luke.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you,\u201d he said, kissing her. \u201cYou have no idea how much lustful energy you put out. I won\u2019t have to go to a strip club for a month. That being the equivalent of satyr Hot Pockets, the dinner of last resort.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGlad to be helpful,\u201d she said, retrieving the panties she had discarded earlier and rebuttoning her shirt. She fished a box of sanitary hand towels out of her desk and handed them to him. \u201cThe breasts-on-cold-counter thing was pretty damn cool.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat can I say, I was inspired.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m gonna go clean up,\u201d she said, starting clumsily toward the bathroom. \u201cAnd Luke?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He raised his eyebrows.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou get low on magic again, you just give me a call, you hear? Just don\u2019t mention it to Sally Wilson.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He bowed his head low, though his brow furrowed with incomprehension. \u201cAs your majesty commands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI ain\u2019t a queen anymore; that was a past life. Now, I\u2019m just a normal merrow running a diner and occasionally fucking this hot satyr friend of mine when we both need it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe charming lives we lead,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>When he walked out of the office, several people in the diner stared; a couple looked distinctly away. Orson just smirked at Luke from below his substantial mustache.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo things went well, I take it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought that office was soundproofed,\u201d Luke said. He wasn\u2019t embarrassed at all, just surprised.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cNot soundproof enough, evidently. But I can tell you this, all these boys in here now, they\u2019re gonna be coming back. Allison\u2019s sex life don\u2019t exactly hurt her business.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo I\u2019m a feature,\u201d Luke said cheerfully, picking up his hat and leaving a handful of cash on the table as a tip for their waitress, who was blushing furiously and not looking at them.<\/p>\n<p><strong>To read more, download <em>Capricious: A Texan Tale of Love and Magic<\/em> today!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>[wp_eStore_fancy2 id=14]<\/p>\n<div class=\"eStore-product\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ebook $6.99 ISBN 9781613901106 Paperback $14.95 ISBN 9781613901113 304 pages; 82,760 words [wp_eStore_add_to_cart id=14] The ebook edition is also available at: Amazon, Barnes &amp; Noble, Smashwords, Kobo &amp; AllRomanceEbooks.
