So sorry I'm late with being part of this blog hop - entirely my own fault. I hope everyone has a very good All Saints' Eve and All Saints' Day (as we in the Anglican community actually prefer to call it!), and as a special treat, here's an extract from my gay werewolf story, Martin and The Wolf:
So Lucas and I were left alone.
I thought what would happen was that we’d chat for a while, politely and
about nothing in particular, and then he’d make his excuses and move on.
Leaving me to get another cocktail—non-alcoholic this time—and drive home at an
appropriate moment. On my own. To my empty house and my single lifestyle.
None of that happened.
Instead, Lucas reached out and gripped my arm. The heat of his fingers
seared through my thin cotton shirt and into my flesh. Or at least that was
what it felt like. It felt like being branded. I gasped and opened my mouth to
say something—though, God alone knows what—but didn’t get a chance. Because the
next second the man’s lips were crushing mine, and his tongue was ravishing my
mouth. He tasted of wine and spices. For another heartbeat, I simply stood
there, taking the sudden assault, then my body woke up. For real. I dropped my
drink on the grass. I didn’t intend to, but it slipped out of my grasp.
Luckily, it didn’t break. Then I wrapped my free arm around his shoulders—my
other arm was still imprisoned in his grip—and held on. I realized I was
moaning, but I couldn’t help it. It was just so damn good, and so unexpected.
He growled a response into my mouth, but I didn’t want to hear what he
had to say. I just wanted him to keep on kissing me. I didn’t need to worry.
His body pressed against mine, all muscle and purpose, and he walked me
backwards until we were deeper into the trees, away from the light. I came to
an abrupt halt against the rough stonework of a wall. It was then that he ended
the kiss.
I was panting, hardly able to catch my breath at all. My glasses were
half on, half off, and my lips felt bruised and swollen. God, but I missed his
tongue.
His hand caught my chin, held it firm. He shook me, not so it hurt, but
as if wanting to make sure he had my complete attention. Which he did. No
question. Without a word, he removed my glasses, folded them up and dropped
them into the grass. I prayed they wouldn’t break either.
Then he spoke.
“I want to mate with you,” he said. “Are you willing?”
I almost laughed. Maybe I would have done, if my cock hadn’t been
straining against my briefs and my skin searing at his touch. For a second I
told myself he couldn’t be serious. Not here, so near the house, though we
were, I think, protected by the trees, and in Frank and Miranda’s garden to
boot. Then I understood how serious he was.
“Are you willing?” he said again, his tone low, urgent. “Tell me.”
Unable to find any words for this situation, I nodded and made a sound
of assent. Almost a whimper.
“Good,” he said, letting me go. “Then turn around and take your trousers
and pants off.”
I obeyed. It didn’t even cross my mind to do anything else. Almost
immediately, I heard the sound of a zipper and the hard slickness of his cock
against my arse. It felt delicious, but there was something we had to do first.
“Please,” I managed to whisper. “Condoms…”

I'm usually not a paranormal type, but something about m/m and shifters works for me. Adds a level of uncertainty to the relationship dynamic...
