Blurb(s):
In the kingdom of Teruna , the red-cloaked Seruani teach the
Terunans the art of love. Taken from their homes at seventeen to be trained,
they are shunned as outcasts by society and considered the lowest of the low.
So when Prince Tanish falls in love with the Seruan Feyar, the man who took his
virginity and the only one to share his bed, he is not about to declare that
love. No one can ever know, because the consequences would be too painful to
consider for both of them.
When the king of
Vancor visits Teruna, he promises that his
son, Prince Sorran, will marry Prince Tanish to solidify the alliance between the two kingdoms, with the
proviso that the virginal Sorran is instructed in the art of pleasing his
husband-to-be. When Tanish’s father chooses Feyar to be this instructor, the
lovers decide Prince Sorran must be taught that this is to be a marriage in
name only….
A resentful prince, unwilling to share his lover.
A resentful Seruan, unwilling to share his prince.
And the shy prince whose very nature sparks changes in the lives of all
those around them.
Teruna is about to
change forever.

Excerpt:
“We are
alone,” Sorran said after a few minutes. “Tell me of the cashor. You have intrigued me.”
Tanish
thought for a moment how best to begin. “It is worn by the Seruani.” Sorran’s furrowed brow told him what he needed to
know. He sighed. “The Seruani are those men and women who
provide a special service. They instruct us in the pleasures of the flesh. A
husband whose wife no longer wishes to share her bed with him, those who have
lost their partners, youths who seek their first experience to be with someone
knowledgeable—all these people can pay for their services.”
Sorran’s
forehead smoothed out. “Ah, I understand. We have such people in Vencor.” That
frown was back suddenly. “But I am still confused. Why would someone not pay us
heed if we wear the cashor?”
Tanish
stared at him. “Because Seruani are
considered the lowest of the low. When a youth is taken to be trained as a Seruan, he or she loses all contact with
his or her family. If a Seruan was to
be seen in the street by a family member, they would not be acknowledged. In
truth, they would be shunned.”
Sorran
pulled at Forena’s reins, bringing the stallion to a dead stop.
Tanish
halted Nerita and twisted in his saddle to regard Sorran. “What is the matter?”
Sorran shook his head, his expression pained.
“In Vancor, such people are revered. They are viewed as mystical.”
Tanish
was astonished. “But why?” He could not believe such a difference in attitude
could exist.
Sorran
tilted his head. “My teachers tell me that when two people make love, their joy
can be such that they almost touch the heavens. Surely one who can help you reach
such levels is a person to be cherished, valued, revered.”
His
description brought tears to Tanish’s eyes. To think that but for an accident
of geography, Feyar could have been born into a land where his gifts would have
had worth, where he would have been treasured. Tanish bowed his head, eyes
closed, overwhelmed with emotion.
A soft
hand came to rest on his arm. “What ails you, Tanish?” Sorran’s voice was low
and lilting, his concern audible.
Tanish
opened his eyes and gave Sorran a feeble smile. “For many years I have wept at
the thought of those chosen to be Seruani,
shunned by their families and society. I have wished for change.”
Sorran
smiled, his dark eyes flashing. “But you are to be king one day, just as I will
be. A king wields so much power.” He leaned closer, his gaze fixed on Tanish.
“If a king does not like a law, he has the power to change it.”
Tanish
shook his head. “To do so would be to insult those who drew up the laws in the
first place.”
Sorran
quirked his eyebrows. “Who created those laws? And when?”
“I do
not know. It has always been so.” Tanish had reflected upon that many times.
Sorran
frowned. “That does not mean it must remain so. And laws can be changed a
little at a time. Take small steps, but always be sure of your goal.” He patted
Tanish’s arm. “Win the people’s hearts first, and then lead them where you will
go. If you act justly, your motives clear, they will follow you.”
Sorran’s
earnest expression seemed older than his years. Tanish gazed at the prince in
wonder. Sorran’s words resonated deep within him, sparking a flame of hope—and
something else. For the first time in a long while, Tanish felt at peace with
his destiny.

About the Author
Born and raised in the north-west of England ,
K.C.Wells always loved writing. Words were important. Full stop. However, when
childhood gave way to adulthood, the writing ceased, as life got in the way.
K.C. discovered erotic fiction in 2009, where the purchase
of a ménage storyline led to the startling discovery that reading about men in
love was damn hot. In 2012, arriving at a really low point in life led to the
desperate need to do something creative. An even bigger discovery waited in the
wings – writing about men in love was
even hotter...
K.C. now writes full-time and is loving every minute of her
new career.
The laptop still has no idea of what hit it... it only knows
that it wants a rest, please. And it now has to get used to the idea that where
K.C goes, it goes.
Where
to find K.C. Wells:
K.C. can be reached via email (k.c.wells@btinternet.com), on
Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/KCWellsWorld), on
Twitter (@IslandTalesPres or through comments at the K.C.Wells website (www.kcwellsworld.com ) K.C.
loves to hear from readers.
