Marious’ Story by M.A. Abraham – Cover Reveal-Pre-Release Giveaway

Marious’ Story will be released on August 6, 2012.  This is the second novel of M.A. Abraham‘s The Elven Chronicles series.  Below is an excerpt from the book, as well as the details of the special promotion Giveaway being graciously offered by M.A. Abraham!

Excerpt:

“Now that,” Marious spoke as he walked through the door and tossed a wide smile at the entire assembly before him.  “I was willing to place bets on.  I have brought you a small basket of strawberries and honey-laced cream to go with them.  If I had had any idea there were this many here I would have brought more.  No matter, these are all for you.  Along with a little surprise to set off your day.”  With a bow Marious held out a basket filled to the brim with beautiful ripe, red strawberries, covered with a cloth.

Tamarak set down her flowers as she took the basket and sat on a chair, as she uncovered the container she gave a cry of delight.

As Marious had said there were fresh picked strawberries in the basket as well as a dipping container filled with heavy sweet cream.  On the very top of it all were three white owl feathers.  A smile spread across Tamarak’s face as she raised brilliant shinning eyes at Marious.

“Feathers from Elsa.  They could not have been easy to get.

“No, but for you, worth every bit of effort it took.”  Marious openly flirted with her.  His efforts didn’t go unnoticed.  The three Dark Elves frowned.  The Duke Lexior gave a big grin of amusement, and the Prince Brennor narrowed his eyes in a menacing fashion.

Serenity chose that moment to join their group and Marious brought out another small basket from his other side and graced her with a bow and a smile, as he had with Tamarak.  Making it look as if he had not just played favorites.

“My beautiful Serenity.  You leave us all standing in awe of your great beauty.  I know you do not like strawberries, so I brought you this instead.”

Marious held out the basket to her and Serenity smiled as she teased.  “Honey laced cream in here as well?”   She had heard him list the contents of the other basket.

“Nothing else would do for someone so precious.”  Marious continued to sound as if he was flirting.

Serenity uncovered the basket to find it filled with raspberries and she smiled.  Her reaction was more reserved than Tamarak’s had been, but no less gracious.

“You know how I love raspberries.  You are a sweet boy.”  Serenity purred.

Serenity dove into her berries, dipping one into the cream and popping it into her mouth with a look of ecstasy on her face.  She then dipped another and offered it to Torrent, who tossed her a wicked look as he smiled into her eyes and accepted the treat.  He slowly lowered his lips over the fruit and allowed his tongue to caress the length of her fingers as he slowly sucked the fruit into his mouth.

Serenity’s eyes widened as she allowed him to lick the cream from her hand and his lips.  She would have offered to share with anyone else but no one appeared interested, for the look in Torrent’s eyes warned them all off.  Serenity gave him a look of suspicion and went to join Tamarak.
