She sat bolt upright and reached for the lamp that sat on the nightstand next to the bed. As light flooded the room, she met the gold eyed gaze of the lion who should still have been closed inside her laundry room. “How did you get out? Now where am I going to put you until morning?” She sat up straighter as the lion’s body started to blur. Transfixed, Chandra watched as a man soon stood in the lion’s place. She felt her jaw drop open as he stared back at her with marked desire showing in his gold eyes. Chandra slowly took in his shoulder length dark brown hair, which happened to be the same length as her own, and his tanned muscular body. He wore a snow-white kilt low on his hips and nothing else. By the way she had to crane her neck to look up at him, she knew he had to be tall, even taller than her six feet. “You can put me in your bed until morning.” He spoke in a deep accented voice that seemed to go right through her in a good way. “What?” With all that delicious male body bared to her view, Chandra found it hard to concentrate. He smiled down at her, making his male model good looks even more spectacular. “You asked where you were going to put me until morning. How about in your bed?” “My bed? Who…what are you?” “My name is Sef. I’m one half of the Egyptian god Aker.” Chandra felt her nipples pebble beneath her pajama t-shirt as Sef’s gaze lowered to her breasts. “A god? You’re an Egyptian god?” She had to admit he looked the part standing there in nothing but his linen kilt. “Yes. My identical twin brother, Duau, and I are known as Aker. We guard the gates to the underworld.” Holy shit, there were two of them? “And because you are a god you can shape shift into a lion?” “Yes. You ask a lot of questions.” “I tend to do that when I’m nervous.” Chandra’s mouth went suddenly dry as Sef reached for his kilt and yanked both it and the loincloth he wore under it off his body. Unable to stop herself, she looked down his body and swallowed. His cock stood full and erect from his body. She squeaked as Sef lifted the covers on the bed and slipped in beside her. Chandra quickly moved over to the other side of the bed. “What are you doing?” Sef shifted to lie on his side propped up on his elbow. “You are my mate.” He reached out with one muscular arm and wrapped it around her waist as he pulled her down onto the bed next to him. He tucked her up against his large body. Chandra gasped at the feel of his hard cock pressed against her thigh. Her body responded to his nearness. A rush of wetness pooled between her legs. It had been so long since a man had held her in his arms like this. And never one as good looking as Sef. “I’m your mate?” She bit back a moan when he stroked down her waist and across her ribs to settle his hand just below her breast. “Another question,” he said with a chuckle. He leaned in and buried his face into the crook of her neck as he took a deep breath in. “Your scent tells me that you are. I want to be inside you, taking you as mine. I want to hear you cry out as I pleasure you.” A shiver of desire made Chandra shake at Sef’s words. Oh, she wanted him as well. Right now, her body didn’t care what he was. It just wanted him to put that hard cock of his deep inside her pussy. Pump it in and out of her until she came again and again. Chandra told her body to behave, but it wanted none of that. It had been too long denied to say no to what Sef offered. That she found him devastatingly attractive didn’t help either. Sef made the same purring sound as he’d done while in lion form as he nuzzled the side of her neck. His tongue came out and licked her skin as he kissed a trail up to her mouth. Chandra’s eyes drifted shut at the first light brush of Sef’s lips against her mouth. When he took her mouth fully, she gave up the fight. The man knew how to kiss. His lips took hers in a fiery kiss as he pushed his tongue inside her mouth. He tasted like pure sin. As his tongue dueled with hers, Chandra wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him until he came to lay half on top her body. Never one to hold back after she made a decision, she jumped in with both feet. She’d deal with the consequences, if any, in the morning. Threading her fingers through Sef’s long hair, she held his mouth to hers as she eagerly kissed him back. He moaned as she sucked his bottom lip between her teeth and gently bit down on it. She arched her hips against his erection. Sef lifted his head and looked down at her with eyes dark with passion. “I want to take things slow.” Chandra took his hand and shoved it inside her shirt, placing it on her breast. “More kissing and less talking. I can think of quite a few other things you can do with your mouth right now besides using it to talk.” Reviews As always, Marisa Chenery has taken us into uncharted territory, and thrown us curves we can't possibly expect. The tale is intriguing, the characters strong and engaging. This is one of the hallmarks of Marisa Chenery book, and Sef, The Lion of Yesterday is no exception. There is one more coming that I am aware of, and I am truly looking forward to its arrival.--Rose, Romance at Heart Magazine 4 Hearts:  Marisa Chenery continues this shifter series with another great love story. So far they're stand alone books with the common denominator being great eroticism and romance when gods meet mortals. Chandra's and Sef's tale is no exception. Ms. Chenery mixes some mellow humor and hot sex with a vicious demon who picks the wrong god to hurt when he picks on Sef. Book three proves to be another well crafted book where the scenarios seem to be playing out in living color in front of our eyes.--Dee Dailey, The Romance Studio 4 Angels:  Sef, The Lion of Yesterday is a fun read with plenty of hot love scenes. The interaction between Chandra and Sef in his lion form is adorable. At first afraid of the lion's power, Chandra learns to trust him and he's soon following her around the house like an oversized pet cat. As in previous books in the series, Marisa Chenery adds in enough detail to make the mysterious world of the Egyptian gods seem real and comprehensible. This is another great addition to the Egyptian Shifters series.--Maija, Fallen Angels Review 4.5 Tombstones:  This is the best of Chenery’s stories that I have read thus far. Sexy and interesting, the plot is exciting and leaves some questions for later books to follow: What is this demon planning? How will Sef’s brother weather the nightmarish beings? Likable characters portrayed in a likable writing style.--Jennifer, Bitten by Books All content ©Marisa Chenery 2009 - 2012. Web Design by Marisa Chenery.
