Muffy Wilson

@SexyMuffyWilson

Verité, heir apparent in royal lineage and whose ascension comes at a time of other impending stipulations, was unable until to assume her rite of passage to the throne until she found the perfect mate. Secret stipulations to her royal ascension detailed in the Royal Grail would only be revealed to the Princess when the time came. She was chartered by her father, who was unable to give Verité counsel, to find the man that would share her life, her future and her bed…but not the throne.

Failure to do so doomed the coterie.

Rockledge, a prince and royal protector of his father, the King and his older brother who was heir apparent, fought with strength against those that threatened silently to take everything by deceit and trickery from his family.

Verité woke in the blazing sun on the royal sands of the beach on a distant shore that Rockledge, who discovered her sleeping, protected.

I was born when we kissed; I lived in your embrace while we loved. I died when we parted.

Would they fight, side-by-side, to the death defending all that they loved and cherished? Or would they seize their rite of passage, rise to the ascension of royalty themselves bound by danger, loyalty and love?

“This is yours to determine, my child. But, I have faith in the stellar qualities you possess and your teaching. You have studied hard, learned long and steady. And above all other, you place the wellbeing of the coterie. We must prevail to propagate. We must do our duty to protect our cluster clan.”

“Yes, Father, I have always known that if I must pay with my life to preserve the dominion, then I would be so directed to fight to the death.”

“This is that time.”

Involuntarily, I rose to my feet with the dust devils dancing in the sunbeams. My head remained downcast. This was a solemn occasion, no doubt.

“Yes, Royal Father.”

I lifted my gaze as I said his name and locked my eyes on his.

“I know only little, from the history the Queen Mother imparted to me when you were born, that you must travel from here to find your mate before you are in the Worthy Year of your life. This mate must be a mortal and prepared to live in your company here, so that the propagation of our family will continue.”

“But, Father…!”

“The clan will die out without the integration of seed from a royal mortal.”

“Alas, my father…”

“This is how it must be. We are, none of us, able to sire your heirs. Over time, our seed loses the power to procreate and every one hundred years, new blood and semen must be filtered into the children that follow.”

“Oh, Goddess above. Where will I go? When…?”

“Soon, my child, soon.”

“How will I know, my father?”

“You will know, my child. Of this I am certain. Every female before you has prevailed to achieve their destiny. They return to fulfill their duties with a chosen mate. And life prevails again.”

“You must leave and return with your mate before your twentieth year.”

“But, Father, I am not yet eighteen. Why tell me now, when there is still so much time?”

“Because there is actually very little time. The alchemist has determined that I have few years left and you must be prepared almost immediately to assume supremacy.”

“Father, when…how…this is all too much!”

“Comport yourself with dignity, Verité. This is your destiny for which you have trained all your life. You are strong, independent, fierce. You are creative and fast, smart as any that have ruled before you. I have raised you as I would have my sons, had they lived. Now you must live for us all. You must be your woman, secure your mate, and return to become Queen Mother.”

Who is Muffy Wilson in her own words?

I am a wife, mother, daughter and sister first and an author of provocative romance about love, sex, hope and passion second. I was born in Texas to traditional parents. With two older brothers, I was the youngest, the family "princess," indulged and pampered. My father was a career Colonel and pilot in the U.S. Air Force which required our family to travel extensively. I spent her formative years in Europe and 'came of age' in France (a state of affairs that gave my father much cause for concern one loooong summer on the Italian Riviera!) which forged my joie de vivre and love for books, writing and education.

~ Live, Laugh, Love with Passion

What is one thing you would like the world to remember you for?

I am a simple person. I would like to be remembered as a good person, loving wife and nurturing mother. I never met a stranger nor turned anyone away that needed help. And I have tried hard to learn from my mistakes but I am not always successful in that endeavor!

What got you into writing?

An old boyfriend from high school. We reconnected after all these years and he writes real estate self-help books. I took a significant departure from self-help to provocative romance.

Are you a full-time author or do you have a day job as well,

and if so, what do you do?

When I first started writing fiction in 2010, I was still working as a General Showroom Manager for Ethan Allan and then Robb & Stucky, both high-end furniture companies. I entered the world of real estate sales as well, but I have since retired and devote most of my free time to writing and anything that will keep me from doing any housework!!

You’ve written a lot of other books. Is Erotica the only genre you write in? And if yes, how do you keep doing it? I got bored after one book… How often do you need to take masturbation breaks (if any)?

OMG, that was funny! You surprised me with that one!! Actually, in the beginning most of what I wrote was short stories and I took plenty of masturbation breaks! Now my books are more story than sexual content. I get bored with the repetition and in truth, our lives do not revolve around sex but are complimented by it. What is more important is the human bondage that precedes a sexual liaison that I find most interesting. Like you, I have branched out but sex is still a fundamental part of the human condition after all, people are enigmas.

Finally, what can we expect and look forward from you in the future? Plug away…

Last year was a very busy year from me. I worked very hard and produced a number of wonderful stories I was honored to have featured in several collections. I wrote several standalone features and a few series. Much of my new work has been a real leap of faith for me into the Paranormal and Sci-Fi-Shape Shifter genre. It has been fun and a real stretch for me. 2017 will prove to be an even bigger year for me as I have six books and collections releasing in the first six months. So, there will be plenty to look forward to in 2017.Check out my Amazon Author Page, Goodreads or my website.

Thank you so much for having me visit. This has been one of the most interesting interviews I think I have ever done! And fun, too. I so appreciate your thought provoking questions. Clearly you have read my work and you know how important that is to an author, that someone actually picks up our hard work and sits down to read it. It doesn’t get any better’n that!

Fun, Sci-Fi & Mayhem! The Darziods' Stone by @RichardSmithTT #ASMSG #BookBoost #RPBP

A special stone hidden in a quiet cove in Cornwall more than 200 years ago, is the object of a desperate search by two opposing factions. When Harry and his school friends discover a code whilst holidaying in the cove, they assume it will lead them to hidden treasure. But dark forces, with seemingly supernatural powers, are working against them. The teenagers soon find themselves caught up in a deadly battle, and will be lucky to escape with their lives, let alone get their hands on the treasure.

Fun, scifi and mayhem!
"This is an exciting story! There were quite a few plot twists that I did not expect. I was on the edge of my seat much of the time. There is also magic, action and bravery exemplified as these teens battle against forces they have little comprehension about."

About The Book 'The Darziods' Stone'

When the school summer trip to Blackpool gets cancelled, Harry's parents offer to include Harry's friends in their trip to Tredock Cove in Cornwall. Amelia, Mitch and Asad are grateful - Cornwall will be great and even if it isn't as great as Blackpool, anything is better than being stuck at home, right? Ryan is less convinced. He's not the most open-minded of boys and he sincerely believes that Cornwall is full of carrot-crunchers. But he goes along anyway, even if it is reluctantly. Even Ryan doesn't want to be left at home by himself.

And it doesn't take long for the quiet break in Cornwall to turn into something much more exciting - and frightening. The kids find a secret code and become convinced that cracking it will lead them to hidden treasure. And it might well do, but the code will also lead them to something much more dangerous... because as readers of The Darziods' Stone will already know, thanks to a prologue dating back to 1798, Tredock Cove was once the scene of something very sinister indeed. A ship returning from the Napoleonic wars once stopped off there. Its captain and boatswain were murdered and the rest of the crew disappeared, never to be found. The world never knew this but an experiment conducted by a band of prisoner alchemists, led by the evil de Richlieu, was to blame.
As our heroes search for treasure, they find themselves pitted against these ancient forces and they will need some extraterrestrial help if they ever hope to defeat them.

(@joannamaz)

Loti is finding it hard being a witch in modern times; joining a coven could be the making of her. The only thing standing in her way to her initiation into The Fire Coven leaves her cold - having to steal a powerful magic ring from an incubus could be her undoing.

Determined to prove herself she struts into a well known magic club in the Red Light District hoping to put her carefully thought out plan into motion.

• step one- seduce Maxwell Henderson,
• step two - steal his enchanted ring

Unfortunately not all plans come to fruition and the evening doesn't pan out how she planned. Things get out of her control quickly when confronted with the devilishly handsome Maxwell and Loti ends up spending a very intense night with him instead.

The next day she wakes up alone in his bed with the realisation that all her magic is gone. Devastated she confides in her cousin Sophia who informs her that she can get powers back, but only if Max falls madly in love with her.

Will Loti be able to resist the temptation of Max or will she follow through with her plan to regain her magic and accept her powerful destiny?

The stream of sunshine were caressing my face and I stirred on the bed awake. I felt warm, and very well rested. I stretched my arms wide, realising that my own bed had never felt so comfortable. The space around me was clean and slowly my eyes adjusted to the bright light that was streaming into the room.

I was laying in bed naked and I had no idea what the hell happened to me last night. Maxwell Henderson, the incubus demon had managed to seduced me. His scent was still overwhelming, drifting around the room. We had sex, probably the most amazing sex in my life.

I pulled the covers away and got out off the bed. My hair were tangled and my make up was probably ruined. I tried to make myself looking great again using a makeover spell if case he would come back to the room, but nothing happened. I tried again, but it seemed like my magic was gone. The familiar tingling around my body wasn’t there anymore. The magic that normally brew inside me had been completely wiped away. I looked around with panic, thinking that this was impossible, I was a witch and my magic had been with me since I was a little girl. Something must have happened last night, something bad.

My entire plan was ruined. Maxwell Henderson had managed to tricked me. He gave me the most unbelievable, multiple orgasms and then he left me here in his room alone. The coven assured me that my magic was supposed to be immune me to Incubus lust, so what the hell happened last night? I had lost my head the moment he approached me in the lounge.

I started searching for my mobile phone frantically, hoping to figure out what the hell happened. I located it under the bed and a second later I was dialling my cousins number. Max must have let me in his bedroom alone for a reason. He must have known that I was after his precious ring.

“Hey sweetie, what’s up?” my cousin Sophia sang, sounding very cheerful this morning.

“I’m in Maxwell Henderson’s bedroom. Just woke up and my magic is gone,” I hissed to the phone, completely freaked out. All right, I was one of the most powerful witches in the family, but right now I felt completely useless.

“What? What’s happened? Have you managed to steal the ring?”

Max could walk in here at any time, so I had to be quick. Sophia was intelligent and she was always stuck in her bedroom, studying complicated spell books. She was the only one that I could rely on.

“I showed up in the club, ignored him and before I know it we were having sex upstairs in his apartment. It was amazing that’s all I could remember. The rest of the night is a bit blurry,” I explained. “Tell me Soph, what the hell happened to my magic?”

There was a silence on the other side of the phone. I got up and started pacing around. Maybe this was only temporary, and soon my magic would come back.

“Did you see the ring?”

“Yes, he was wearing it when we did it,” I muttered, annoyed that she didn’t understand how serious this situation was.

“He must have stolen your powers, enslaved it to the ring when you two connected on the emotional level. This could only happen if there is strong physical attraction between two parties,” she explained, like she was citing from the spell book. Blood rushed to my ears, and suddenly I couldn’t breathe.

“This is bullshit. No, I need my magic and that damn ring,” I said. “This wasn’t supposed to happen. Lucinda said that witches were immune to Incubus lust.”

Maybe she lied, witches did lie to each from time to time. I wished that I was more prepared.

“Hold on, I’ll see if there is a way to reverse the spell,” she said. My stomach was in knots. I needed to get the hell out off here, get back to the coven and figure out my next steps. My magic was my life. In the background I hear how Sophia was turning the pages of her book. I massaged my forehead, as the flashback of that night began moving in front of my eyes. Heat rushed down between my legs. God, this was pathetic. He wasn’t even here and I was getting turn on. No other human or a warlock had ever made me lose my head like that.

“Oh dear ….” I heard on the other side of the phone.

“What? What is it?”

“It says here that you can break the spell only if the incubus will fall in love with you,” she read. I had to sit down, because my knees felt like paper all of a sudden. Sophia couldn’t have been serious. Maxwell Henderson wasn’t capable of loving anyone. He was a demon and he prayed on women lust. “Hey Loti? Are you still there?”

How long have you been a writer and how did you come to writing?

I have been writing for about 5 years now. From my teens I had been saying that I was going to write a book on day. And during a summer break I was really bored, so I sat down and came up with idea for my first series The Whispers of the Sprite. Then I started doing research about self publishing and that’s how my journey began.

How did you come up with this storyline?

One of my street team members asked me to write the story about Incubus demon. I started researching and came up with the plot straight away.

What are the best and the worst aspects of writing?

I love plotting new stories, but truly detest editing.

What inspires you to write?

Everything around me, other books, films and dreams. I come up with new ideas all the time.

How did you conduct your research for Stolen Magic?

I have started reading legends about Incubus demon, magic and other mythological creatures from that era. I have the plot within an hour and then started creating my characters.

What are 3 of your favorite quotes from Stolen Magic?

I had been waiting for this moment since I was sixteen years old. My mother was part of the Fire Coven, my grandmother and great-grandmother too.

If Incubus demon looked at any human woman, she was his regardless.

“I’m in Maxwell Henderson’s bedroom. Just woke up and my magic is gone,” I hissed to the phone, completely freaked out.

Any more Favorites from Stolen Magic?

“It says here that you can break the spell only if the incubus will fall in love with you,” she read.

What would your friends say is your best quality?

Wide imagination

Are reader reviews important to you? Why?

Yes, reviews can help sell the book and more reviews get authors exposure to other book review sites, blogging communities, and book clubs.

What do you do when you don’t write? Like in “Real Life”

I take care of my daughter (she is 8 month old right now) and watch TV shows on netflix and read!

Tell us about your other books?

I write contemporary and paranormal romance. My latest series is about demons and royal family. The series is set in London. I have written over 20 novels in the past 5 years.
