Excerpt
He caught movement out of the corner of his eye and
stopped a second to glance up. His heart stopped as he stood there staring at
what was walking up the carpet, not able to believe his eyes.
The black leather jeans seemed molded to his long lean
legs, the sides intricately laced showing just the right amount of skin, enough
to show off his perfect legs but not so much that it made you scream cheap. No
those pants screamed “Fuck Me!” if they said anything at all. If Jaron had to
guess those jeans alone probably cost more than he made in a week. The black
sheer shirt, although silky in appearance, was loose flowing and like the pants
had laces up the sides, but at intervals where the shirt looked like it would
fall off at any moment. The aviator glasses accented his chiseled features
instead of diminishing from them like many sunglasses tended to do.
He paused a moment, smiled at the crowd, tossed his
head so that his collar length dark hair swung about his face. This action
alone brought another round of ear shattering screams. He grabbed a marker from
someone and started signing the many magazines, scraps of paper, or whatever
the fans had managed to grab when they realized who was walking in and that he
was willing to sign a few autographs. He turned back toward the nightclub and
swaggered toward the door. Swagger was definitely the way Jaron would have put
it. No one walked with that much swing in their hips naturally.
Great, this was just what he needed, not only would he
have to hear about his failure to get in from Ashton but Marco Romero also
would know that he had failed to get an entry into what was surely to be the
hottest club in the city.
“Come on pretty boy.” Marco smiled at him as he
grabbed his arm and turned him around. Slinging his arm over Jaron's shoulder,
he pulled him close. A surge of desire coursed through his body as he realized
that Jaron seemed to mold perfectly to his side, almost as if he was made for
him.
There was no way that this could really be happening.
No way that Marco would take pity on him and get him into the club. This was
fantastic, this was so going to go into his article. He was one step closer to
his all access to Marco and he knew it. He didn’t know what the sudden change
was but it didn’t matter, he was going to use this to his advantage.
Jaron noticed that even the guards at the door seemed
to be awe struck by the appearance of the hottest star in the century. He felt
like he was standing in the middle of a strobe light with the constant flash of
the camera and Marco’s model pose. He tried to copy his pose, to not be one of
those people who stood awkwardly by the star’s side. He’d seen it in several
pictures that were printed and always said if he got his chance he would be
ready. He spent hours in front of the mirror even now perfecting his pose.
“Should have known you would have an invite,” he
muttered under his breath.
“Oh I don’t, do you really think they would turn me
away though? Do you know what could happen to this club if I was to mention
that they refused me entrance? Do the words ‘here today gone tomorrow’ mean
anything to you?” He smiled, giving a slight nod to the bouncers as they rushed
to open the door for him. “You are now cool by association, isn’t fame grand?”
About the Author:
A.J. Kelton are the dynamic
writing team of Angel and Jordan. The couple met online several years ago on an
Alexander fan site and have been friends ever since. Angel soon found that
Jordan had a flare for storytelling with several half-finished stories on her
computer. Angel encouraged Jordan to finish the stories and with help in
creative description she decided to send the stories off to MLR press. They
were both shocked and excited when they got the news that Faelon was accepted
for publication. While Jordan may have a flare for storytelling she doesn’t
enjoy the smaller details in getting a story ready for publication. That is
where Angel comes in; she spends countless hours getting the story ready after
line edits, going over each line in proofing and formatting, making decisions
such as covers and fonts, all things that Jordan just has problems focusing on.
Angel is always on the
lookout for her perfect mate, a cross between Ethan from Under the Australian
Sky and Evan from Marco. Until Mr.
Perfect appears at her door, or in front of her booth wanting an autograph she
loves to read, take pictures and attend concerts of all kinds. She loves all
things 80’s. Angel lives in Texas with her two dogs, Daisy a beagle who she
insists is nothing like snoopy and her Chihuahua Bonita.
When not writing Jordan loves
to read anything from Amish romance to the dark taboo books of fiction both M/M
and Het. She is a very avid reader, except when writing because she doesn’t
want to be influenced by what she is reading. Jordan loves to travel and often
her latest vacation spots show up in his books. While Jordan is always looking
for that perfect place to live at the moment she can be found in Kansas.
Both writers have solo
projects coming out in the future, Angel with Misunderstandings under the name
Angel Rothamel. Jordan with Legion under the name Rider Jacobs.
Both authors would love to
hear from you. You can contact them at AJKelton@AJKelton.com. You can also find them on Facebook under both AJ
Kelton, Angel Rothamel and Rider Jacobs.
