One hot blurb for my audience, coming up! To be followed by a hotter excerpt...


Jawk
Tales of the Chosen

Pleasure. Trust. Possession. Is a betrayal of the heart forever?

Jawk Brighton makes a living by waiting tables, but to provide for his family, what else will he do? His roommate gets him a job at Batchelors, a hip restaurant/club in the Top Tier district of Tarth City, where he comes under the scrutiny of wealthy patron Luc Saint-Cyr. When Luc offers Jawk a deal too good to pass up -- one night showing him and his friend Wulf Gabriel a good time in exchange for eight times his usual pay -- he takes it. All three have secret agendas. The question is, will Jawk's secret keep him in Luc and Wulf's shared bed, or will their secret games land him in the bed of the one person they're striving to undermine?

Content: M/M sex, M/M/M sex, voyeurism, multiple partners, alien sex, more M/M sex - and a heated and softly padded dungeon floor for those "tender" moments...

Ah yes, delicate. That's me. lol

I'm googly-eyed waiting for the cover. Laura Givens is working on it and she's done all four of my other titles. Click her name to see what I think of her work (I blogged an article about the secrets revealed in her covers). Or click here to visit her website.

Rachel made my day when she pm'd me with "Loved Jawk." Succinct. Music to an author's ears. Thank you! *cyber hugs*

[Kayelle Allen]

Those who have read my other books know that Luc Saint-Cyr has been in all of them. He was a hero in Wulf, but he's also a major character in At the Mercy of Her Pleasure, For Women Only, and Alitus.

The Chosen are:
Called to serve
Honored to protect
Obedient to the vow
Safeguards of the truth
Enablers of life
Neutralizers of threats

This book changes everything the Chosen believe and stand for and rearranges loyalties in ways no one ever anticipated. It also reveals secrets hinted at over the last four books... If you like Luc Saint-Cyr, this book is a must read!


====================
Jawk, Tales of the Chosen
Excerpt from Chapter One (pre-edited version)


Tarth, Tarth City
Top Tier District, Batchelors 4
Sumertsag 77, 4664 Tradestandard date

Waiter Jawk Brighton bowed to the booth full of businessmen. "Have a safe trip home, gentlemen. I hope you'll come back to Batchelors again soon." He made no attempt to hide his fangs as he smiled. Ears down and out in respect, he placed a hand over his heart, bowed once more, then took a step back and walked away.

As he turned the corner toward the kitchen, he caught a glimpse of them in the mirrored wall. To a man, all seven leaned out to ogle his ass. Haven't they seen a Kin before? Or maybe any ass will do. He shrugged. Being the first Kin to work here had brought him plenty of attention last night, and record-breaking tips. Geez, and they think cats are curious... Everyone wanted to see him up close, touch him, and ask questions. Cool eyes. Can you see in the dark like a cat? Say something in meow. I thought Kin had fur. Do you really have claws? Are they sharp? Is it true Kin can't whistle because of their fangs?

But the worst had to be, "Here, kitty, kitty!" followed by laughter.

He blew through the right-side kitchen doors and scanned the staff ID bracelet on his wrist. Up popped a tray at his station, and the hoverbot underneath lassoed itself to his arm. Holding the tray overhead, he swept back out the other side. The time-elapsed-in-kitchen clock over the door read 2.7 seconds.

He chuckled. Beat my trainer's best and it's my second day on the job. Who's the best, now, huh?

The human-oriented Batchelors 4 with its crystal and white tablecloths catered to the upscale gay crowd in the empire's capitol city. These days, the powerful feigned a gay inclination even if they never acted on it, simply to be seen here. Whether a proper business lunch, a tycoon-style impress-the-hell-out-of-the-client dinner, a few friendly drinks, or a casual pick-up, business deals rose and fell like the fate of empires in Batchelors' candle-lit booths.

"Who's thirsty?" Jawk grinned at a table of three businessmen, all of whom looked up from notes they were making. He parked the hoverbot next to the table. "A Black Mystery for the handsome gentleman in white who seems to be all work tonight." He placed a napkin and the black vodka in front of the man on his left and was rewarded with an immediate smile. "Gin for my friend with the gorgeous ginger-colored hair." He held the gaze of the customer a moment longer than necessary, then served the last drink with a quick flourish of his wrist. "And whiskey straight for a fine-looking gentlemen who..." He turned over one hand as if waiting for him to finish the sentence.

"Isn't," his friends finished for him, to laughter all around.

Jawk winked at him. He released the hoverbot, which rose to the ceiling and returned to the kitchen. "Gentlemen, your server's taking a quick break." He pulled a square paper napkin from his apron pocket and turned it on the table so it formed a diamond. His name was scrawled across one corner. "I'm Jawk. If you want me--" He widened his eyes in a flirty smile. "Oh, pardon. I mean if you desire my services..."

The men broke into chuckles. Jawk laughed with them.

"Just tap this button." He stuck out a claw and touched a glowing button on the table. Batchelors' holographic menu popped up. "I'll come immediately." He patted his chest as if flustered, flashing them another smile. "Oh, well -- it might take me a little longer than that..."

More laughter. Jawk clasped his hands behind him. "Anything else for you, gentlemen? What other appetites may I satisfy tonight?"

He programmed their generous food order into the menu and shut it down before bowing away. He grabbed up an errant hoverbot that hadn't returned to its docking station, then picked up a pitcher and refilled three beers on his way back to the kitchen. His orders were up, and he served the trio of friends before routing to the other side of the club to fill in for another server going on break.

Two tables away, wearing a tuxedo and dark glasses, sat the man he'd come here to spy on.

No way to sugar coat it. Spying was exactly what it was. It had taken him three solid years undercover, posing as nothing more than a hard-working college student. Which he was, truthfully -- he'd busted his ass getting those grades. But he'd finally gotten into Batchelors, the favorite hangout of Luc Saint-Cyr.

The Harbinger. The Man. Crime lord extraordinaire, whom no law enforcement in the empire could pin down. And also a legitimate businessman. Hell, the simple power of his name alone was a business. The number one mover and shaker, a tycoon and entrepreneur unlike anything the Tarthian Empire had ever seen or likely would again.

And unknown to all but a tiny handful of people called the Chosen, he was immortal. A Sempervian. He'd amassed generations of wealth and power he could use to his advantage. Taking Saint-Cyr down would be the story of the year, defeating him the coup of a lifetime.

Jawk's college roommate, Nij, had given him two huge breaks in one. Since Nij was graduating, he needed someone to replace him at Batchelors, and Jawk jumped at the chance. Setting the cherry on top of the ice cream, he asked Jawk off the record if he was open to a threesome with a patron interested in meeting a Kin.

Always cautious, Jawk had wanted clarification. "You mean, you, me, and a client from Batchelors?"

"You, a client, and the client's lover. They're into dom/slave games. He likes to tie him up and watch. You can't let the bosses find out. They'd fire your ass in a flash. Still, damn good money. I worked one party he threw, and it paid for an entire semester at school. Had spending money left over from tips his friends sent afterward. I shit you not. You into the scene?"

When the client turned out to be Saint-Cyr and his lover, Wulf Gabriel, everything fell into place. After work tonight, Saint-Cyr was giving Wulf a surprise.

"Jawk, how's it going?" Mr. Vandermeer, one of the owners, held out a tray, which Jawk took. "They keeping you busy out there?"

"Oh, yes, sir. We're packed." He grinned, ears forward. "This place runs smoother than a hoverbot on oil. Everything's right where you can find it. I'm having no trouble keeping up."

"You're doing a great job. I've heard good comments so far." He patted the side of Jawk's arm. "Keep it up. Glad to have you on board."

"Thank you, sir." He bowed. After he put away the tray, he started stocking the bar near Saint-Cyr's table.

The Man's ability to slug back whiskey and not get drunk was legendary. He sat alone, swirling a stirrer through his Whiskey Sour, and watched the crowd. He had the biggest booth, all the way in the back, with a view straight to the door. Six different employees cautioned Jawk his first night never to seat anyone there. It was the Man's and no one else's, no matter how busy they got. When Saint-Cyr walked in, he got seated. Now.

The immortal had an impressive presence and an imposing height. Six-five, according to the dossier.

Saint-Cyr suddenly sat up straight as a wistful smile bared his heart, but he swiftly steeled himself back into icy control and brushed a hand down his tuxedo jacket. "Finally."

With his Kin hearing, Jawk could hear his whisper, despite the noise of the club. He turned toward the commotion at the door. Wulf Gabriel had arrived.

The empress herself, showering jewels on one and all, could not have staged a more impressive entrance.

Even the staff, who knew better, flocked around him. Wulf's masculine beauty, strong jaw and chiseled features had rocketed him to the top of the fashion modeling industry fifteen years ago, and time hadn't dulled them. In addition to his physical appeal, he was the producer for the hottest music groups on the scene today.

The club's two owners shooed everyone back to work and hugged him. Their dossier said Wulf had known them for years. He kissed them both like they'd been lovers, and started across the room toward Saint-Cyr. Every person along the way stopped him to talk and shake his hand. Wulf cast his lover an apologetic smile and made a kissing motion.

"It never fails," Saint-Cyr whispered. "Every time we meet in public." The drink stirrer snapped between his hands. He flipped the pieces on the table and drummed his fingers. "Patience, old man, patience."

Jawk's wrist ID buzzed, signaling he was wanted in another area. Tonight's the night, Saint-Cyr. Enjoy your freedom. After this, you're a marked man. He pulled himself away from his quarry and hustled toward his new section.

Darr

You are tooo kind....

[Kayelle Allen]

All you Luc fans out there, this is your opportunity to interview "the Man" himself. He has his own room in the forum. Check it out here.

Last I heard, he was willing to answer questions about almost anything. That ought to prove interesting...

[Luc Saint-Cyr]

I wonder at the wisdom of posting here, since the book reveals so much about me. But I must say it is an odd sensation reading about oneself from an opposite point of view. Seeing Jawk from this perspective is enlightening. One might almost begin to understand his motives.

Almost.

But it is gratifying to see him in his element. His appeal is genuine. Perhaps I should describe him for you. Jawk is young, but wiser than his years. The top student in his class at Tarth Technical College, he is the first Kin male to attend the school. I am six feet five inches tall (tradestandard), and Wulf is six feet even. Jawk falls somewhere between us. He is a delectable golden honey color all over, and has "skinfur" which has a very soft, velvet plush feel, except on his hands and face. His hair is curly and a deep blond almost as dark as his skinfur, a pale honey. His eyes are green with golden flecks that disappear when his pupils dilate. Mmm, speaking of which, because he is Kin, his pupils are catlike vertical slashes, and he has fangs. Very interesting to kiss, I must admit. One of my favorite things is a Kin's kiss, because their tongues are every bit as scratchy as a cat's...

For those interested in knowing intimate details, I suggest you read the book. However, I am open to some questions, as Kayelle mentions in her post above. Everything except the plot. There are some things no one should reveal.

Take that in whatever way you wish, Kayelle.

Luc--

I noted as I read Jawk's story that Wulf didn't seem to care for the scratchy tongue while he received a blow-job from Jawk. How do YOU like cat-tongue hummers?

Rachel

Cat-tongue hummers... What a quaint phrase.

There are some secrets a gentleman never tells. However, since I'm on a forum called SiN, I imagine it's permissible to reveal a bit.

The feel of a scratchy tongue is an acquired taste for humans. From birth, Kin are licked by their parents as a sign of affection, so to them, it's an every day occurrence. The first time for a human, as in Wulf's case, is often considered painful and not altogether pleasant. Rather like the sting of a whip, in fact. However, for those who appreciate the sweetness of pain, it's an incredible experience. Had he been willing to undergo the experience again, he might have come to like it. But we both know how that fell out.

I say all that to say this: I find it highly pleasurable. The erotic feel of pain is something I usually prefer to give. But with Jawk, there were times when ... how to put this ... the "tables were turned." He was able to overpower me, which is not an easy thing to do.

Being, as Kayelle puts it, the alpha of alphas puts one above that sort of thing. So to find an alpha who was my equal in both strength and stubbornness was a rather enjoyable ... shall we say "surprise."

[Kayelle Allen]

As the author, I should say Jawk surprised me, too. I started out writing a scene where Luc was the top (as always) but Jawk had a few talents he'd hidden from me and pulled them out as needed.

I should let his character sign on here. It might make an interesting debate.

[Luc Saint-Cyr]

Debate?

So long as Jawk doesn't reveal intimate secrets (and you and I know what those are) I have no problem with him signing on. However, he will have to make the usual two replies in the Heroes and Heroines forum area won't he? And I believe he needs a "room" of his own? I would not like to disrupt Michael's rules. He's so touchy, you know. (Michael is the person you refer to as "Mike", but I eschew nicknames. In response, he called me Lucifer. Such an interesting character... Are you certain you didn't write him, Kayelle?)

[Kayelle Allen]

Me? Write "Mike"? Goodness, no. Trust me, Luc. He is an original.

[JeanP]

Better watch it, Kayelle. Sounds to me like Luc is still "The Man" and is going to give a hard......er, difficult time.

[Rachel Fox]

Luc--

Thanks for the response -- I sort of figured that would be the answer, but it is nice to have it confirmed.

Rachel

You are SO right! lol in both senses of the word hard.

[Luc Saint-Cyr]

Jean, my dear. How nice to see you here. How have you been?

[Anne Cain]

OMG...*fangirls over sexy Luc's appearance in the thread*

[Luc Saint-Cyr]

My dear Ms Cain. *bows* How wonderful to see one of my favorite artists here. One day I would love to be painted by you. Camel hair brush perhaps? I'm not a bit ticklish.

[Anne Cain]

Oh, Luc...*heeheehee* I only use sable brushes and chocolate-based mediums, because clean-up is so much easier. Do you think Wulf would like to help...?

[Luc Saint-Cyr]

Mmm, chocolate-based sounds wonderful. Easy clean up indeed. One can simply lick away the evidence.

I would be happy to enlist any help you require, my dear. Your wish is my vice.

[Luc Saint-Cyr]

Note to Anne ...

Thank you for the painting, my dear. I've gained five pounds but am certain with the right exercise I will work it off. Are you up for another round? I was thinking of starting a blue period. Or red. Whichever you prefer.

[Kayelle Allen]

I hope to have a cover soon. I've seen a draft and there are some changes coming but it will be by Laura Givens so you know it will be fabulous! She's done all four of my other covers and I can't wait to get my hands on this one.

[Kayelle Allen]

I approved the cover this evening so I hope to see it here very soon. *fangirl squeal*

I adore this cover. Laura Givens is amazing.

[Shayla Kersten]

Woo hoo! Great news, Kayelle! I'm anxious to see what LSB comes up with for Forever!

[Mike]

What's the rush? We have Forever

[Shayla Kersten]

*cackle* Hey, Forever took forever to write. That was enough waiting! LOL

[Kayelle Allen]

[Mike]

Laura serves.

[Rachel Fox]

So, that is what Jawk looks like. Can I pet him?

Rachel

[Kayelle Allen]

Originally Posted by Rachel Fox

Rachel

Yes, you can. But he bites. And ... um, licks. With a scratchy cat tongue...

And here's a bigger picture so you can see him up close and personal like. Thanks to Laura Givens...

[Tina Burns]

Laura is amazing in her details! Wow.

[Kayelle Allen]

Originally Posted by Tina Burns

Laura Givens amazes me. And she's so willing to work with authors to get exactly what they want. I love Laura's work!

In the middle Tales of the Chosen book, Alitus, the hero is an enhanced human called a Better. His kind was forced to wear burka-like veils, so their pheromones and hypnotic voices could not affect "normals". Check out the character in the back and to the left - he's wearing a Better Veil. Who is it? *mwah hah hah* Have to read the book to find out.

[Rowan McBride]

I agree about the details--wow. And the veiled person is a teaser! Clever and evil at the same time.

[Kayelle Allen]

Almost finished with the edits. Can't wait to get this book out there and see what people think. This is a pivotal book, because it's the fifth in a series. With this story, everything changes.

Will people guess the ending? I had four beta readers, and none of them expected what happened. This is why one of my critique partners said, "Think you know what'll happen next? No way! It's by Kayelle..."

I've always loved a twist at the end of the story. Something satisfying that makes you go, hmmm...

Jawk, Tales of the Chosen has that kind of twist. Oooh, it's so hard to wait!

[Red Garnier]

Oh Kayelle, I love the excerpt!! And cover!! YUM YUM!! And nice to meet you Luc!

[Luc Saint-Cyr]

I'm planning a party for the weekend of the release and will post more about it asap.

[Kayelle Allen]

Jawk, Tales of the Chosen is out Jan 14, 2008 - 17 days from today.
I'm putting together an online party for that weekend and will post
more about it very soon. I'll be posting a piece of trivia every day
between now and then. I'll start out with two for today.

TRIVIA #1
The Chosen are a secret society in the Tarthian Empire, and this is
their creed: "I am Called to serve, Honored to protect, Obedient to
the Vow, a Safeguard the truth, an Enabler of life, and a
Neutralizer threats. I am C.H.O.S.E.N."

TRIVIA #2
Imagine if you could smell the emotions of others. Being in a crowd
of happy people would be heavenly, but what if there was an angry
mob?

The feline Kin can smell emotions, and their hyper-sensitive noses
also clue them in to things like a lover's desire. So today's trivia
is a list of emotions and their scent (or close equivalent). In the
book Jawk, Tales of the Chosen, Luc Saint-Cyr takes Jawk with him to
a business meeting, and Jawk uses a special flick of his cat-ears to
let Luc know when anyone in the room is lying. Now, wouldn't that be
handy!

Emotion-Scent
Anger-Peppery
Anger/Pride-Snuffed candle
Bewilderment (confusion)-Oranges
Cinnamon bread-Contentment
Conceit-Citrus (mix of orange/lemon/grapefruit type smells)
Curiosity-Butter
Desire-Brown Sugar
Desire (deep, sexual)-Musk
Disgust-Mold
Doubt, distrust-Yeasty, spoiled
Dread-Flat and metallic
Excitement (Good)-Vanilla
Excitement (Sexual)-Cinnapods (Cinnamon)
Family-love-Crisp autumn morning
Fear-Tart
Gratitude-Mint
Hope-Air after a rain
Lies-Bitter
Longing/Despair (over loss)-Bittersweet chocolate
Mirth-Peppermint
Pride-Tanned leather
Rejection-Sharpness of taste, stinging
Respect-Fresh linen
Risk-Kai peppers (hot spice)
Sadness-Stale beer
Shame-Vinegar

Along with a complete glossary of the Kin language, the above list
will be included in Jawk, Tales of the Chosen.

Look for more trivia tomorrow! I will post one item every day until
01/14/08 when the book is released.

Here's the blurb...

Jawk, Tales of the Chosen.

TRIVIA #5
In Jawk, Luc Saint-Cyr mentions his adopted son, Senth Antonello. Senth (or Senthys, as Luc prefers to call him) was adopted at age three. On Kelthia, one of the Tarthian Empire’s worlds, professional thieves often ‘adopt’ children and train them as apprentices. Few thieves ever reach “Arcane” level, the highest in the guild, without extensive training from childhood. Senth is the youngest of Luc’s adopted boys. His five brothers, who were all already on their own by the time he came along, had been the sons of another Arcane level thief. When he died, Luc took over their education, and four now make their living as pros in the Thieves’ Guild. To Luc’s chagrin, the fifth became a cop.

In the book For Women Only, Batchelors is a cool little restaurant/bar in Tarth City, located in the Kelthian District. The owners, Trink and Yvan, are friends of Khyff Antonello, the hero. In a pivotal scene that takes place in the bar, we learn a few interesting details about Alitus, whose book is the central story of the Chosen trilogy.

We meet Trink and Yvan again in the first Tales of the Chosen book, Wulf, when they encourage Wulf to seek help from their friend and benefactor, Luc Saint-Cyr. Unknown to the two men, Wulf grew up around Luc, because his father was one of the man’s Chosen.

The book Alitus opens with the hero paying a visit to two women he had sent to Batchelors to intercept Khyff.

Jawk, Tales of the Chosen begins in Batchelors -- the hero is employed there.
