and Luc over to your site. These guys are big tough Alphan males with golden
skin, horns and a primitive desire to keep the woman in their life safe and
satisfied at all times. However, they’ve been enjoying keeping each other
content in the needs of the flesh as they’ve waited for Aurora to arrive into
their lives – not that they could ever have imagined how she’d get there!
I hope you’ll check out RECKLESS which is just one
of several ménage a trois Planet Alpha erotic
romances available. It’s perfectly fine as a standalone read so go ahead,

Cover Information for RECKLESS
Aurora Zenith is
battling to survive in poisonous London. Working at a docking station to Planet
Alpha is not helping. Why? Because each day she witnesses lucky humans
rocketing to a better life in the stars. With a surname last on the list to
escape and a lung condition making her first on the list for death she’s
getting desperate … and reckless.
Seeing an opportunity
to stow away on sexy Captain Ciro’s shuttle to Alpha, Aurora acts first and
thinks later. Trouble is, without a plan she’s flailing in space and lost on an
alien world.
A string of rash
decisions and a hasty retreat make for a perfect storm of danger, deceit, and
lust. Will Aurora escape the evil Xyran who has her in his sights? Will Captain
Ciro ever tear his attention from his gorgeous copilot and notice her? And what
do the Alphans mean when they say a woman will complete them?
The only thing to do is
fly with them and see where she lands.
Excerpt
Tentatively, Aurora
approached the club. The smell of food grew stronger, as did the sound of
voices. Before her was a set of steps leading downward. A polished wooden
handrail was attached to the wall.
She took hold of it and
allowed her palm to slide down as she descended. Warmth wrapped around her, and
the sound of voices competed with the music. Passing several doorways, some
closed, some ajar, she arrived at a large wooden double doorway. It was only
open a few inches so she paused and looked inside.
Her heart sank. There
didn’t appear to be any females. She’d stand out way too much if she just
wandered in.
Several small animals
were on spits being roasted over a fire, and she guessed they were the source
of the heavenly smell. Alphans stood and sat around the fire, drinking from
stout glasses and apparently immersed in conversation. It was clearly a place
to eat and drink, and discuss the events of their planet.
The music came from a
large speaker at the far end of the room. Manned by an Alphan, he sat with a
surly expression next to a control deck, his eyebrows low and his mouth in a
tight straight line.
Looking around, Aurora
saw that most of the Alphans wore serious expressions. Unlike when humans got
together with food and music and friends, Alphans weren’t jovial. The ambiance
was solemn, though not threatening.
She licked her lips,
saliva pooling in her mouth. When had she last eaten freshly roasted meat? She
couldn’t remember. But there was no point getting her hopes up. There was no
way she’d get any of the food being prepared.
A sound behind her
startled Aurora. Turning, she realized it was coming from one of the rooms
she’d walked past. She heard it again. A low rumble of an Alphan’s voice, then
the scrape of metal on the hard floor, a chair perhaps.
Being sure to keep her
footsteps silent, she walked up to the doorway. She didn’t know why. Something
was drawing her to it— curiosity, fascination, a need for connection.
Peering through the
inch wide crack between door and frame, Aurora could hardly believe what she
saw. Captain Ciro and his copilot, Luc, were in the room.
Luc was sitting on a
low chair with his hands flat on his thighs, fingers spread. He had his eyes
closed and his head tipped back, his hair was tousled around his shiny horns
and hung down his back. It was much longer than she’d thought it was. His
throat was extended and vulnerable and his golden chest exposed as his pilot’s
jacket was undone to his navel.
Beside him stood
Captain Ciro. He was looking down with an expression of affection and lust.
Lust?
Aurora pressed her lips
together and clenched her fists. Were Ciro and Luc an item? It certainly seemed
as if they were.
Ciro stroked the tip of
his index finger over Luc’s mouth.
Luc dragged in a deep
breath, his chest rising and his jacket slipping a little wider.
“Shh ... be patient,”
Ciro whispered. “I need it as much as you do.” He ran his finger over Luc’s
chin, then the protrusion of his throat and down to his chest.
“It’s been a long day,”
Luc said, tipping his head back further as a tremble attacked him. “That was a
close call with those Xyrans.”
“It’s always a risk
when we pass that close to the Partin System.”
“I know, but—”
“Shh, there’s no buts.”
Ciro stooped and placed his lips a whisper from Luc’s. “The ucrium radiation
deflected their attention.”
“I know.”
Ciro slanted his head
kissed Luc. A hard, sure kiss that spoke of passion and support, love and a
shared history.
Aurora pressed her
fingers to her lips. She should leave. This was clearly a private moment in one
of the club’s private rooms. No place for a human female to be hanging out.
But she couldn’t. The
scene held her captivated. It was as if a magnet was holding her feet to the
ground.
Praying no one would
find her, she continued to watch as the kiss deepened.
Ciro was busy with his
hands, stroking Luc’s chest and belly, but Luc remained still. Almost as if
he’d been ordered to sit that way.
By who?
Ciro?
But Luc
was a mighty Alphan warrior. He could refuse to do anything he didn’t want to.
He wants this.
Ciro rested his hand
over Luc’s groin and squeezed.
Luc groaned, a
vibrating rumble that mixed with the music.
Ciro broke the kiss.
“You’re hard.”
“I need to mate,” Luc
said, “with you ... now.”
Ciro straightened and
began to undo the golden buckle on his belt, his movements swift and efficient.
He stared down at Luc as he did so, and it was evident, due to the large bulge
in his groin area, that he was erect.
Aurora’s head spun. She
had to go. She had to stay.
Ciro and Luc were
homosexual. Seeing them together, doing the deed, would be a fantasy come
true—a fantasy she hadn’t known she’d had until moments ago.
But why were they here?
In a room in a club?
Clearly they weren’t
too worried about being seen by other Alphans. But what would they make of her
watching?
They wouldn’t find out.
She’d stay just another minute and…
