Welcome back to Tuesday Tales! This weeks prompt is this picture.
As much as I love my Historical Paranormal, I couldn’t fit it in with this picture prompt…so I’ve written a partial scene from my Halloween Lake Point story (due to release in October), Witch Way. As a reminder, my characters are Felicity and Craig, you met them one months ago on another picture prompt (where I forgot the word count limit ~ahem~). So here we are just a few days after they “met”…and fell in lust at first sight…which is fine with Felicity…:
Felicity smiled when she was handed the key. “Thanks, Katie.”
When the librarian snuck back into the office to play on the internet, Felicity grabbed her laptop bag. She strolled through the opening between the cases under the elegant clock.
On the other side, Craig leaned against a shelf waiting. At her wink, he slipped into step behind her. “Where are we going?” Even his hushed voice seemed loud in the empty, quiet library.
“Shhh.” She led him through the stacks. She turned right and headed to the room under one of the high domed windows. There were four such rooms in the library, but this was her favorite.
Craig bumped into her when she stopped to unlock the door. “Oh, sorry.”
“No problem. Why are you looking around like you’re in awe? The library hasn’t changed at all since we were kids, except there are computers now.”
“I’ve never actually been inside.”
She held the door open and stared at him. “Excuse me?”
“Wasn’t much of a reader.”
“Right. You were more of a doer. Now get in here quick.” She dragged him inside and shut the door, locking it behind her. “Will you shut the blinds?”
The room was a square with windows into and out of the library. She loved this room for the nice view of the town, but today the view didn’t matter.
As he shut the blinds, she set her bag in the corner and pulled off her jacket. She hopped onto the table and grinned when he turned. “This room’s soundproof, did I mention that?”
“You’re serious? Here?”
“You bet your sweet ass I’m serious. I’ve wanted you since I saw you save that dog the other night. What about you?”
He gripped her thighs and yanked her close, his lips crashing against hers with intense passion.

Well hot diggity dog! Things are heating up in the non-fiction section! Nicely done.
lol. You betcha!! Thanks, Vicki. These two are going to be different than my usual Lake Point story, for sure. They’re all about lust at first sight, love second. 😉
Wow! A hot scene in the back room at the library. Yum! Well done, low key and then wham! Passion happens. I love it!
Thanks, Jean!! I’ve had this library scene in mind for a LONG time…ever since I went to the sound-proofed room at my own local library to work one day. Craig and Felicity are going to be such a fun couple to write!
Love it, love it, love it!
Interesting use of a library. Great scene

Guess the others have said it all. hot scene 😉
caught my attention!!!
my words exactly … are you serious … well done … hot hot hot … I hope we don’t have to wait for another picture prompt to get to read more of this 🙂
Wow! Now in all the gazillions of times I’ve been in a library, I’ve never quite *ahem* used it in quite this manner. Steamy scene that I never would have thought to put in a library. Great job!!
Soundproof, heh? Makes me wonder why I never paid attention to all those various doors in the library. I will now.
Nice, I guess a library would be an interesting place for that kind of activity. Sound proof to 🙂
