Flash Fiction 9/11
The Language of the Fan
Jason held his
cheroot to the side and blew a thin stream of blue smoke into the garden. The
whiny stringed instruments from the ball couldn't hide the crunch of feet on
the path.
"What are you
doing out here?" He demanded hoarsely. Trenton would put his huskiness down to the
smoke, or maybe the bastard would know it was emotion.
"I wasn't
flirting with her."
"I know the
language of the fan, My Lord. She wanted you to meet her in the gardens."
"I'm only
interested in meeting you." Trenton D'Arcy swung Jason around by the arm. Jase
allowed the cheroot to slip from his fingers and stamped it out. His hands
landed on Trent 's
shoulders as the hope of the match making mamas took his mouth in a torrid kiss
that left them breathless.
Quickly, he
recovered his resentment and pushed Trent
away, his prick a hard ache inside his white satin evening breeches. "Damn
you! Why do you do this?"
"Because I
love you."
He winced at the bald
statement. "You should love some dainty demoiselle who can provide you
with children and social grace. I can give you nothing."

Great tease Lee. This may be my favorite of all I've read by you! Excellent imagery and power behind the emotions involved. Loved it!
ReplyDeleteOh I simply love it!!! I have a thing for regency stories... And this little teaser needs to be continued if you ask me!
ReplyDeleteI love it. I love the tension at the same time as the attraction. So much in such a little piece.
ReplyDeleteIn the movie Kitty (1945), Ray Milland teaches Kitty the language of the fan. Delicious scene, but I can see why Jase would be jealous. Love this tease.
ReplyDeleteLove this flash...you can flash me regency style any day Lee...*bats lashes*
