about Kissed by a Dark Prince, including an excerpt from this paranormal
romance novel.
Kissed by a Dark Prince (Eternal Mates Romance Series Book 1)Felicity Heaton
Olivia thinks it’s her lucky night when a dangerously handsome unconscious fae ends up on her inspection table. He’s her chance to redeem herself with her employer, the demon-hunting organisation, Archangel. But when the tall, dark and deadly immortal warrior awakes, she gets much more than she bargained for…
Attacked by his enemy in the elf kingdom, the last thing Prince Loren expects when he comes around is a beautiful angel watching over him and medical technology of the mortal realm. Hazy from his injuries, all he can focus on is the pulse ticking in her throat and the sweet allure of her blood.
One single bite reveals she is his eternal mate, triggering a bond between them that will leave him weakened until it is completed… or broken, and pulling Olivia into the crossfire of his ancient feud.
To protect his people and his mate from the machinations of a madman, Loren must risk everything by working with Olivia at Archangel to find a way to break the bond blossoming between them.
But will Loren be strong enough to place duty before desire and give up the one thing he has waited millennia for and craves above all others—his eternal mate? And will Olivia be able to resist the incredible heat that burns between them and the temptation of her dark prince’s kiss?

Kissed by a Dark Prince – Excerpt
It had been two days since he had woken a
captive of a mortal organisation and taken the female’s blood. Every time he had
closed his eyes to catch some sleep and speed his healing, she was there
waiting for him in his dreams.
Erotic, intense, incredible dreams.
Loren palmed himself again and then dragged
his hand away. He was only inviting the dreams if he pleasured himself because
of them. He dug his hands under the soft pillows beneath his head, caging them
there, and stared at the wooden ceiling of his rooms.
Why couldn’t he get his mind off her?
She haunted him every waking hour and every
sleeping one, filling his head with thoughts that had him needful of her and
aching, hard at some extremely inappropriate times.
Loren sincerely hoped that his clothing had
concealed the erection he had sported during a council meeting. It had refused
to go away, dragging his mind through the gutter, making him imagine taking the
female right there on his throne. He hadn’t heard a word his trusted advisors
had said as they had gently berated him about his lack of caution that had led
to him being injured and left at the mercy of demon hunters.
He scrubbed a hand down his face and then
shoved his fingers through his black hair, yanking it back hard enough to hurt.
He hadn’t experienced lust in forty-two
centuries, not since he had gone to war with his brother. He also hadn’t thought
of anything other than Vail and their war in that time. He didn’t like it. He
needed to focus on his brother now that he had re-emerged from hiding.
Searching for his brother had occupied most
of his days since their war had begun. Vail cloaked himself, making it
impossible for Loren to find him through the link between their blood, so all
searching had to be done manually, using scouts and his dwindling army to
follow up rumours and find clues.
His brother had been gone without a trace,
clue or rumour to follow for almost four centuries.
Loren’s guard had been down three nights
ago when walking the castle grounds, needing the space from his aides so he
could think. Vail had defeated him before he had even managed to rally his
senses and begin to defend and retaliate.
Somehow, he had ended up in the mortal
realm. Was Vail there now?
It unnerved Loren. Vail had never taken
their battle to the mortal realm and the council were concerned that he
intended to reveal the existence of his kind to the humans.
Loren’s people were already low in number
as it was, weakened by attacks resulting from his brother’s nefarious plots
throughout the centuries. He wasn’t sure they would survive should the mortals
discover a way into this realm and send in their armies.
The council were using this latest attack,
and almost successful attempt on Loren’s life, to force him to agree to drop
his attempts to capture Vail and end him instead. Loren closed his eyes, his
chest aching at the thought of killing his brother, his only family. He was
still convinced that Vail could be saved, but he was the only one who felt that
way. Everyone else, even his second in command, Bleu, believed that Vail was a
tyrant and deserved to die in exchange for the lives he had taken on the battlefield,
both by his own blades and by underhanded tactics.
Loren had a duty to his people.
The council took great pleasure in
reminding him of that and Loren could never argue against it. His duty was to
his people and he would do all in his power to protect them.
Even kill his brother.
He wasn’t sure he had the strength to do it
though. Whenever he saw Vail, he wanted to capture him and bring him home. He
wanted to save him and he hesitated because of it, allowing his brother to
escape.
Now, Loren feared that it was a fool’s
dream and that he would live to see his kingdom fall and his people suffer
because of his love for his brother.
Because of his inability to place his
people before his only family.
The council weren’t on the battlefield to
see what he witnessed. Whenever he met Vail in battle, they dealt each other
blows, but it had always felt as though they were toying with each other,
neither of them desiring the death of the other.
The times when Vail’s female were present
were different though. The witch had been present at many of their fights over
the centuries and each time Vail had been a savage, wild man, focused and
determined. The sight of his brother like that left Loren with the feeling that
his brother had completely lost his mind.
Whenever they had crossed swords without
Kordula present, Vail still seemed crazed, but not savage or mindless. He
flitted between attacking and retreating, as though he was split between them,
his mind torn in two.
Loren heaved a sigh and pinched the bridge
of his nose.
He still ached. No longer the ache of
arousal. The wounds on his body were healing but sore, a lingering reminder
that Vail was dangerous and had almost killed him this time.
Why now?
He couldn’t recall everything that had
happened. There were pieces missing and he had a strong urge to return to the
female doctor and finish finding out how she had come across him.
Not a wise idea.
Common sense warned that he really wanted
to return to her because he had another strong urge, the one that occupied his
dreams and had him rising beneath the sheets again.
Loren sat up and shifted his legs over the
left edge of his expansive mattress. He shed the dark purple sheets and rose
from the bed, stretched and tried to ignore how hard he was again. It was no
use. He had ignored it for two days and it wasn’t going to go away until he
found release. Many in his court would suggest finding a female to slake
himself on but he didn’t want a stranger in his bed, a female who would be
there under orders no doubt, doing her duty for the kingdom.
He hadn’t bedded a woman since long before
he had gone to war with Vail. He wasn’t going to start now. He wanted his ki’ara. His fated female. He wanted the
one destined to be his forever.
He crossed the room, heading towards the
arch to his right, beyond the wardrobes that lined the opposite side of the
wall to his bed. His bathing room was half the size of his bedroom, all dark
stone on the floor and walls. A beautiful crystal chandelier hung above the
bathing pool that was set into the floor. The crystals shone in different
colours, casting them around the room.
Loren bent and swept his hand through the
water in the large square pool. It was warm. He stepped down into it and sunk
under the surface, holding his breath and letting the water heat every inch of
him. Coloured light rippled and danced across the surface above, and a sense of
peace flowed through him. When the need to breathe became urgent, he broke the
surface and moved to the side of the pool closest to his bedroom. He leaned
back against it and closed his eyes, resting the back of his head on the edge.
Thoughts of the female instantly invaded
the darkness behind his closed eyes. Loren focused on the warmth surrounding
him and how peaceful he had felt while under the surface, trying to shut them
out. His cock ached again, rigid beneath the water. Loren ignored that too. He
would soak to ease his tired muscles and sore body, and then he would rise and
dress, and would speak with Bleu.
The female danced back into his mind,
wearing the parted white coat and very little beneath. He pictured her standing
across from him, at the edge of the pool there, her brown eyes dark with desire
as she raked them over him.
She cocked her head to one side and ran her
fingers down her chest, circling her breasts with them, shifting the two sides
of the white coat and flashing her dark nipples. He groaned and she smiled,
hooked her fingers into her coat and slowly opened it, revealing all of her to
his eyes. She let the material slide down her body and pool around her bare
feet, and then stepped into the water.
Loren swallowed hard, transfixed by her as
she waded towards him, her hips swaying with each leisurely step, teasing him.
He ran his arms along the edge of the pool,
waiting for her.
