The third installment in my Wolf Caller trilogy will be released laster this week. Here’s a little taste….
Wolf Caller 3: Yearning by Silvia Violet
“Damn it! I can’t feel a thing.”
Derek growled and pulled back. “You’re not trying hard enough.”
“The hell I’m not. I want to find Two as badly as you do.”
“Then concentrate.”
Serena’s head was ready to explode with frustration. She rose from the pillows where they’d knelt to attempt the magical work. She had to get away from Derek before she said something she’d regret. As walked away, Luke gave her a sympathetic smile and Isabel patted her arm.
“Pack leader?” Isabel used her most formal address, the best choice considering Derek’s current mood. “We need to take a break.”
“We don’t have time to take a fucking break,” Derek snarled.
Isabel sighed. “Continuing when we’re tired is not productive. We would do better to rest and try again this afternoon.”
“Fine.” Derek rose and walked to the window. He stared out at the overcast morning. Silence was as close as he would come to admitting that Isabel was right.
“I will take my leave then,” Isabel said. She smiled at Serena.
“I’m sorry,” Serena mouthed.
“It’s not your fault.” Serena read the words from Isabel’s lips.
The work she and Isabel had done to open the solar box they recently recovered from enemy hands had strengthened Isabel’s magical abilities though the two women had not gained the ease of mental communication Serena shared with Luke and Derek.
Serena and Derek had previously thought such a power boost could only come through mutual orgasm. But the physical contact she and Isabel had shared as magic had rushed through them had been enough. A temporary mind link had opened between them, and Serena’s magic had touched Isabel the same way it had Luke and Derek, giving Isabel greater physical strength and magical ability.
Serena sat on the sofa, drawing up her knees and resting her head on them. The intense magical work she and the wolves had attempted had given her a raging headache and made her achingly tired.
Since breakfast, Isabel had been coaching Serena, Derek, and Luke on using their combined magical strength to reach out and sense Agent Two, the Toulousian spy who’d discovered the Albionians ability to harness the power of the sun. Theoretically, if Luke and Derek could boost her innate abilities, Serena could focus on a particular person and pull certain thoughts from his or her mind. From Isabel’s understanding of the technique, the thoughts would come as impressions, images, or feelings rather than clear words. She would not gain the ability of general mind reading. Rather, if she focused on a particular question, she might be able to draw the answer from the person’s mind, like a forced mental interrogation.
Serena and her lovers had made three unsuccessful attempts to forge a link with Two. On the second try, Serena felt a strange warmth for a moment as if she were about to make contact, but the sensation faded as quickly as it had come and was never more than a flicker. When they tried again, she felt nothing at all.
She understood Derek’s frustration. If she could make contact with Two they could discover where he was and what his next move would be. They had to prevent Two from obtaining another of the secret solar boxes. Albion could not afford for its enemies to discover how to use this new power source.
Currently only the Prime Minister and members of a secret branch of the Office of Clandestine Affairs knew about the solar boxes. They were operated by werewolf magic, but Derek feared that if Two learned the box’s secrets he could find a witch or a wizard who could unlock it’s magical secrets.
Serena found the strength to raise her head when she heard Luke and Derek arguing in harsh whispers. Suddenly, Derek shoved Luke against the wall between the room’s two windows. The pack leader closed his hand around his lover’s neck. “Never question my orders again,” he growled.
Serena’s heart pounded, and she leapt to her feet. She caught Luke’s gaze. He shook his head nearly imperceptibly, but she ignored his warning. “Let him go.”
Derek snarled and turned to face her, keeping his hand on Luke throat. “I am pack leader here. I think the two of you need a lesson in obedience.”

Great Review for Station Leave
Sep 29, 2007 Filed under: Uncategorized
Nicole Harvey at PNR reivewed Station Leave and her kind words are making me dance and it’s 6 am on a Saturday for me so you know it must be good. Here’s what she had to say:
“Nick is one of those men that is a strong, take charge man that draws me and I am sure many other woman that read this book. It was just pure heat between the two that kept me flying until the last word. The day I was lucky enough to read Silvia Violet’s books was the best day that is for sure. She is so gifted with words, the way her stories just get better and better.”

First Draft of Wolf Caller 3 Finished
Sep 29, 2007 Filed under: Uncategorized
Whew! I finished the first draft of Wolf Caller 3: Yearning this week. I’m about 1/4 of the way done with the second draft which for me goes MUCH faster than the first. Once I’m through with that, I’ll do a third quick read-through for grammar/spelling/sentence structure and send it off to my editor. Then I’ll get to work on editing To Capture A Spy, my erotic Regency that I want to sumbit to Samhain. I’ve also been plotting a book for Farrington, a secondary character in A Carnal Agreement and A Persistent Attraction.
Excerpt: Wolf Caller 1: Control
Sep 20, 2007 Filed under: Uncategorized
Since I’m working on the last volume in the Wolf Caller series, I wanted to post a sample from the first book, Wolf Caller 1: Control for those of you who would like to know about this series.
Wolf Caller 1: Control by Silvia Violet
Serena slipped through the open doors into the courtyard and took a deep breath of the chilly night air. She’d been at the party for several hours and was beginning to grow weary of the endless, inane chatter. The evening promised no excitement. She’d broken things off with her last lover before going to the country with her cousin, and she’d not yet settled on another though she’d had several propositions.
She sat on a bench and looked up at the night sky. A couple’s laughter echoed from the far side of the courtyard, but otherwise she seemed to be alone. Her thoughts drifted to the wolf she’d met in the woods, and her heart rate sped up.
“I was told I’d find you here.”
She jumped and looked up at the man who stood beside her bench. She’d not heard him approach. Fuel-powered lanterns lined the courtyard, giving off enough light for her to see him as well as she would in the darkened ballroom. He belonged in an erotic dream. He wore his thick, dark brown hair unfashionably long, and he’d pulled it back into a queue. His eyes were light brown, almost golden. They were lit with something she could only guess was lust.
He was tall, several inches over six feet. His shoulders were so broad she feared for the seams of his black coat. The rich burgundy color of his waistcoat brought out deep red highlights in his hair. She fought to keep her eyes from drifting downward, though she desperately wanted to see if his pants fit as tightly as his coat.
“Have we been introduced?”
He lifted a brow. “Don’t you know who I am?”
She studied his face again. There was something familiar about him, but she couldn’t imagine having met this man and not remembering his name.
The beginning strains of a waltz floated onto the patio. “Shall we dance?”
Serena knew she should refuse. To please her mother, she walked a fine line between flouting convention and upholding the reputation of her family. She was always discreet with her lovers, rarely dancing publicly with them. But whoever this man was, she wanted him badly. She wasn’t going to risk him walking away.
She took his proffered hand and allowed him to help her up. She expected him to usher her inside. Instead, he pulled her into his arms and began twirling her in circles right there in the courtyard. He was a skilled dancer, and his arms felt as solid as she’d imagined them to be. He pulled her tight against his chest, and she fought the urge to lay her head on his shoulder and run her tongue along the strong line of his neck.
Serena prayed that no one would wander out from the ballroom. Not only was she dancing with a stranger, but the lack of distance between them was scandalous as was her desire to rip off his clothes and fuck him at the home of one of the Upper Circles’ biggest gossips.
The stranger slid his hand down her back, and cupped her ass, pulling her even tighter to him. His rigid cock pressed into her belly, and she groaned. He maneuvered them to the edge of the courtyard and out into the gardens. As the music faded, he pulled her onto a bench and took her mouth in a ferocious kiss.
His tongue plundered her, taking her breath and any will to protest. She put her arms around the stranger’s neck and held him against her, returning the kiss with equal ferocity. Just as she was growing desperate for air, he pulled back and looked at her, his eyes practically on fire.
“I want you.”
She smiled drunkenly. “Who are you?”
He smiled. “Lord Valmont, at your service.”
She exhaled slowly. She’d been snared by a champion seducer. She should be annoyed, but her heart pounded with anticipation. She’d been especially restless lately, and the werewolf encounter had unsettled her further. Perhaps a liaison with a dangerous man was just what she needed.
“I should have known. You have quite a reputation for seducing women without so much as a proper introduction.”
He looked suddenly serious. “I assure you. We have met.”
Serena licked her lips with deliberate slowness. “I would remember you.”
“Don’t you?”
She shook her head.
“I remember you very well.” When he smiled, Serena saw fangs.
Oh Goddess, no. The wolf. Derek Valmont wasn’t just a dangerous man. He was a werewolf.
She brushed her hands along her skirt and stood. “I should go.”
His hand closed around her wrist, like a iron cuff. “I don’t think so.”
He jerked her onto his lap and fisted a hand in her hair, holding her still. She struggled at first but soon discovered it was fruitless. He was stronger than any man she’d ever met. His lips took hers again. The need to fight drained out of her as hot, throbbing pleasure assaulted her. Her pulse pounded in her ears, and her pussy clenched with need. She’d had skilled lovers before but none of them had made her this hot this fast.
Valmont pushed her skirt up, and caressed her leg. When his hand found her slick folds, he growled against her mouth as he teased he her. His fingers flicked across her clit and down through her wetness, dipping just inside her but refusing to give her more satisfying contact.
She arched against him shamelessly. He pulled back from her lips and moved his hand from the back of her head to her breast, pinching her nipple as he finally pushed a finger deep inside her. She groaned and ground herself down on him.
“How does it feel to be the one who’s lost control?”
Writing Update

I’ve finished 8K on Wolf Caller 3, and I’m still hoping to be done by October 1. I got stuck last week and now I’m suffering from tendonitis in my wrist so work is going slower than I’d hoped. I’ve also been doing some Regency era research in preparation for my next project.
