Excerpt #1 from Dreams of the Forgotten

Every week this month I'll share excerpts for one of my books.  This week, because it is a holiday week will only have 2 excerpts from Dreams of the Forgotten (Sumeria's Sons #3).

Silver Blog Hop Followers, your list will always be at the bottom if you are looking for snowflakes!  :)

Blurb:

Tristan and Ushna are building a secure infrastructure for their rapidly growing tribe and family. Tristan is plagued by dreams he barely remembers. The return of childhood friends is anything but joyous. The Mechanizations of assassins are uncovered. The Magi and Warrior Orders are in chaos. The children of Tristan’s former Twin Flame are winning a place in their hearts as Tristan nemesis, Daniel Sullivan, causes more confusion. Amidst it all, Tristan struggles with the urge to bind Ushna to him but he can’t because Ushna already had a Flame waiting for rebirth. Tristan would do anything to protect that bond, even if it means losing Ushna in the next lifetime unless he remembers his dreams of the forgotten.

Prologue


The sun was warm on my naked body, white haze over my closed eyes.  The grass was slightly itchy against my skin but I didn’t care.  I, Tristan Janick, felt whole.  I hadn’t felt like that in such a long time.  Not since I’d let my former Twin Flame claim me then turn around and refused me in return.  The euphoria from the sex, the orgasm, and the effect of the bonding bite had quickly dissipated with his denial.  I didn’t find peace and was forced to break the bond. Even with my husband, Ushna Ahura-Yzda, the man who meant more to me than life itself, I was less.  Breaking the bond with my Twin Flame took something from me, something vital that left me incomplete. 
Sometimes I wondered if that was the reason why my predator, that primal part of me, desired to claim Ushna so much.  I could feel it, the possibility of being complete, whole with him.  The temptation to reach out and grab it was always there, but then I’d see Brian’s handsome youthful face, reminded that my husband, Ushna would never be completely mine.  All Lycans were blessed with a Bashert, a destine Twin Flame, someone who would love them and be the balance, the eternal companion.  Brian would’ve been Ushna’s Twin Flame if he had survived to adulthood.  My consort would’ve never paid me another look as a potential partner because he would’ve had his Twin Flame.  Why would they need me?
But here and now, I felt wonderful.  It was a gift and I basked in it because I didn’t know when this feeling would go away again.  I breathed in the clean, warm salty air as I listened to the water trickle close by.  A hand landed on my flat stomach and stroked, petted almost, and I refused to open my eyes and break whatever spell I was under.  Mentally I followed that hand down my stomach to the nest of pubic hair, the fingers running through the curls, not touching me anywhere else, even though I was steadily growing hard.  Hot breath blew in my ear, sending shivers down my spine, and I smiled with closed eyes.
Footsteps approached before cold water started sprinkling down on me.  The contrast between the cool droplets and my sun warmed skin made me inhale sharply and sit up with a yelp.  Deep soothing laughter sounded at my side but I ignored it as I looked into the blue eyes of a huge, wet white wolf.  His nose touched mine, tongue lolling to the side as he regarded me in return. 
He was beautiful.
“Did you have to do that, Nikita?” asked the laughing voice.  I glanced to the left at the man lying next to me on the grass.  Tall, broad, and dark with arresting green eyes, the man watched me with heat as his hand stroked my naked hip.
I’d know this man, this soul, anywhere.  I wasn’t sure how I knew him but I did.  The body and the face were unfamiliar but it was as if I could actually feel his flame, his soul, and recognized it.  I looked back at the white wolf in time to see him transform, falling into his human body.  Nikita wasn’t dark but golden.  Sun streaked dark blond hair, piercing blue eyes and a firm, aroused body.  I knew him as well.  I could practically feel the connection between their Flames, but it wasn’t the man next to me that Nikita was looking at with desire.  He was gazing at me as if he would devour me in front of his Twin Flame and my fight or flight response kick in.
I quickly crab walked backwards to put distance in between us.
