Harey by Arlene Webb
Arlene
Webb here, hoping to spark interest and reviews on a story I wrote from the
heart that is currently at an awesome price. I love if you’d grab a copy and tell me what you think of my take on the origins of
Easter.
It
wasn’t only betrayal and sex and true
love and sex and acts of heroism and sex when writing a fictional account
about the man behind the Easter bunny. I came across an episode in Briton’s past
that was quite shocking. I do hope I gave voice to the fallen, and anyone who
reads my story will think upon ultimate sacrifice in this M/F/M ménage that
began on a summer day in 612 AD.
Gwas can outrun a horse, knows how to hide and steal, but is ignorant
of the ways of men. The last thing he expects when he is rescued from a
miserable existence by a blue-eyed, blond haired angel is to be promised as a
Druidic sacrifice to Eostre. Unfortunately, the only direction Gwas wishes to
flee is straight into the arms and knife of his savior, Gareth.
Maura knows Gareth is no angel, but she adores him with a passion that
time and loneliness cannot dent. When he rides in carrying an injured lad who
fears her on sight, she is drawn to open her heart to the abused orphan as
well.
Gareth is caught between his liege lord and brother’s fist, and an
emotional dilemma that grows harder and harder to deny with every passing
season. If he must defy man and gods in order to embrace his heart’s desires,
so be it.
When the clash of old and new religions puts lives in peril,
ultimate sacrifice bears witness to enduring love. Winter gives way to spring,
and the evolution of a colorful myth spreads across the land.
Excerpt:
I
am no angel. Gareth’s
shoulders slammed into the ground. A heavy body covered him, and the adrenalin
jolting through him made him feel like a powerful animal. But I am in heaven. He tugged his arms free, wrapped them around
Harey and grasped the back of Harey’s head. And I do not care if adulterous
sodomites go to hell. He jerked him upward and took his lips.
No time for tender exploration. He
had to show Harey who he belonged to, and it was not some bloodthirsty deity,
or the daughter of a mass murderer. What if Aethelfrith, the devil who had
ordered one thousand, one hundred and sixty-five men killed so they could not
pray against him, had still lived? Harey would have walked into his knife with
a smile, a pet hare, and promises of painted eggs.
I
will not let this man leave me again. Never. Not ever. He’s mine. Gareth fought back his moan and deepened his kiss. Harey tasted so good, fresh and sweet like
Maura, but firm and bony where she was all curvy softness. He intensified the
pressure, relishing the feel of the lips he had desired for so long, and Harey
yielded. Gareth rammed his tongue in, danced around, and then back out to
repeat. He had never held a body to mirror his own like this, captive over him,
and the sheer joy of not being gentle saturated him.
