Out
Now! - Something Else by Nia Farrell
Grace Murphy
is the
local
psychic
medium who
dreams of
her
soulmates
–Nico
White, a
bisexual
American
Indian
musician,
and J.T.
Santiago,
an ex-Navy
SEAL and
former cage
fighter
with PTSD
on top
of the
guilt that
he’s
still
carrying
from other
lifetimes
that
they’ve
shared.
J.T. is
a dominant,
but he’s
never had
a male
submissive
and Grace
and Nico
are a
package
deal. It’s
a learning
curve for
all of
them, with
J.T.’s
initiation
into MMF
and MM
relations
and Grace’s
introduction
to BDSM.
With
Grace’s
yin, J.T’s
yang, and
Nico’s
center
balance,
the three
of them
come
together as
far as
J.T.’s
PTSD will
allow, but
forging a
future
means
healing the
past,
however
painful it
might be,
in an
interracial
paranormal MMF ménage BDSM
erotic romance.

Excerpt
With
the appearance of him, I feel the shift in my own energy, like
he’s a generator crystal that’s amplified every sense, common or
otherwise. My zipped perceptions are razor sharp, dead on accurate,
and delivered with lightning speed. When half hour readings go to
twenty minutes, I start giving discounts and the line never ends, not
until the ten minute warning that the fair doors will be closing
soon.
At
five p.m., one of the New Age shop assistants starts walking the
aisles, clearing the crowd and the room’s energy with a ringing
pair of Tibetan tingshas. I smile my thanks when she manages to herd
the last hopeful from my queue. Smile bigger yet when I see that my
Latino angel has returned.
“Hi,”
I say, sounding rather shy for someone who’s had no problem all
day, delving deep into other people’s lives and issues.
His
lips tuck upward, and he nods his head toward the back of the room.
“I promised my cousin I’d help her. Lena says it’ll take an
hour.”
Lena.
Pretty face, rocking body, bedroom hair, tats. Amazing silver jewelry
and unique leather goods. “I like her.” Actually, I envy her. I
have gifts, but Lena has the skills to make her visions a reality.
It’s what sets her stuff apart.
“She’s
got to get home. Sick kid,” he explains. “Daddy’s challenged
enough when Ariana’s a healthy two-year-old. I’ll be free once
Lena’s on the road. Will you be around? I can meet you somewhere.
We could grab a bite to eat. Talk. If not tonight, then later.”
Déjà
vu. Six months ago, I’d said nearly the same
things to Nico.
I
suggest O’Toole’s, two blocks east. “Do you know it?”
He
nods grudgingly, clearly not a fan of the Irish pub. Sensitive to his
inner turmoil, I offer an alternative. “Or Jerry’s?” It’s a
local bar and grill, edgier than sports and just shy of biker bar.
God,
his smile. I feel like I’ve died and gone to heaven.
“Jerry’s,”
he says. “In an hour or so.”
I’m
still processing when Nico comes to check on me. He’s moved our
vending van and already has his stuff loaded, and I’ve done almost
squat.
“Hey.”
He touches me, sliding his darker fingers up my ivory arms until they
reach my elbows. When his thumbs start rubbing circles in the bend of
each arm, my root chakra kicks into overdrive, and my fucking knees
grow weak.
“He’s
here,” I whisper, damn close to trembling. “He’s meeting us at
Jerry’s after six. Help me pack so we can go get a table.”
That
time of night, on a Saturday, there’s usually a line out the door
one or two blocks long. I know I have spiritual helping hands at work
when we get there and are seated at a booth in the quieter back with
only a fifteen minute wait.
I’ve
said nothing more to Nico about Lena’s cousin. It occurs to me that
I never asked and he never offered his name. We’ll all know each
other soon enough, and way beyond a first-name basis.
Just
thinking about what’s coming makes my panties wet enough to stick
my dress to the worn wooden bench beneath me.
Our
waitress, Cherry, slides coasters on the table and sets down our
drinks, a bottle of pseudo beer for Nico and a glass of orange juice
for me. I don’t want anything, either brewed from nature or crafted
in a chemistry lab, to dull my senses tonight. No alcohol. No soda.
Juice and water it is.
A
menu sits to my right, waiting for him to show. Across from me, Nico
scans both sides of the laminated page and sets it down, his decision
already made. I take longer, wrestling with my baser meat-loving self
when I know I should shun it, but really, where’s the fun in that?
I turned vegan once in high school. It lasted all of two weeks, but I
stayed quasi-vegetarian for three years. Dairy, eggs, and seafood
gave me the protein I craved, but it took cutting out the warm
blooded meat to raise my vibration and get it to where I needed it to
be. Because that’s when the dreams started. Visions of the past
lives we’ve shared. Memories of the three of us.
Poised
on the brink of our next go-round, I have to wonder why we keep
coming back like this, like frigging musketeers. Is it because we’re
stronger together, or dysfunctional apart? Jesus, I’d like to think
I don’t need them, but I know how much more, how much stronger I am
since meeting Nico. My body thrums to think of what it will be like
to have both of them with me.
In
me.
Fuck.

she writes about pleasure, she can share the fantasy worlds
she visits and introduce readers to characters who remain with her

crafting a story, Nia draws upon a rich diversity of life
experiences, which include singer/songwriter, prize winning needle
artist, private pilot, Reiki Master/Teacher, crystal healer, psychic
fair reader, jewelry maker, physician’s assistant, factory worker,
waitress, genealogist, period reenactor, and children’s author. If
this life isn’t enough, there are plenty of others to choose from.

Nia
lives on a farm in Southern Illinois (far, far from Chicago, in the
heart of “Little Egypt”). A seventh generation Illinoisan, she
is descended from Mayflower Pilgrims, American soldiers from the
Revolutionary War to World War II, and Scottish nobility. She enjoys
playing in the past and visits Ren fairs and historical reenactments
in period attire, sharing her love of history and her passion for
music. While her husband and two grown daughters may only read her
nonfiction work, she appreciates their support in pursuing her
dreams, one of which is being published in erotic romance.
