#ScienceFiction #Fantasy Saturday 80 - Demons walk the streets of the future #sffsat #UF #PNR

Hello! Welcome to my snippet for this week's #sffsat, and long time no see, right? It's been a crazy, crazy year, and I've just come back from a seven week break from the internet. Well, mostly off the 'net. To celebrate my return to blogging and to #sffsat, my futuristic paranormal romance No Angel is free to download today, so I thought I'd share a snippet to tempt you. Here, my incubus hero Lucien has just left Hell and a meeting with His Infernal Highness, and is brooding over the almost impossible task he's been set - to track down and seduce an angel...

He stalked the streets of the city, the part that he had an unspoken claim on. Around him, those few humans venturing into the cold, wet weather walked with silver rain sticks in their raised hands, the buzz of invisible energy umbrellas keeping them dry. Beams of light from flying vehicles criss-crossed the clouded sky above. The odd blaring of collision warnings or irate drivers too impatient to wait their turn at the aerial stop signs broke the incessant hum of traffic. Towers and gothic arches in black marble and black glass surrounded him, glinting in the bright gleam of lurid neons. Mirrored panels reflected the 3D adverts that would spring up in front of commuters, like pranksters leaping out of hiding. Lucien strode through them all as they tried to seduce him with the latest social drug, eating place, bar, or males and females available for company. Next, it offered things to increase his libido, at which he laughed, then cosmetic alterations to enhance his appearance. Lucien snorted. As an angel, he'd been beautiful. As a demon, he'd kept his looks, but his demonic nature had sharpened his high cheekbones and narrowed his face, turned his already dark skin a shade darker. He could class himself as drop dead gorgeous and appreciate the utter literal nature of the phrase.
