MMMMMMMonday - Master of the Universe

I have been such a Lemon Sister-slacker lately.....

But a few things have been keeping me busy.

1. Triathlon Training

This picture is funny because everyone looks so fast! I'm all tortoise, baby!

2. Planning fun events for a big Chicago Trip for Eclipse (15 girls are meeting for this epic event. East Coast, West Coast, Midwest and the South are all present. And even 1 lovely girl from the UK and 2 lovely ladies from Germany! SQUEEEEEE!!!)

3. Betaing my awesome fics (Clementines and Your True Colors)

4. Falling in love with fanfic again.....

My dear Betti has been harassing me about Master of the Universe by SnowQueens IceDragon. She's like: "I know you'd love this one!" "Have you started reading it yet?" "You'd know what I was talking about if you were READING THIS FUCKING FIC!"

And I've heard about this fic from tons of people, including the gals over on Twitarded...I just well, for lack of a better word I'm up to my eyeballs in Fairy books right now (just finished Ink Exchange by Melissa Marr) and I just can't be bothered.

So I was bored one night, not sleeping do to one reason or another and clicked on the link to the blog Betti gave me. THIRTY EIGHT chapters later - it was 3:00 and I sent a rather nasty email to Betti saying something like, "What the hell were you thinking telling me to read this fic! I'm supposed to be sleeping! GAAAAHHHHH YOU ARE EVIL!"

Holy shit you guys - I know most of you have read this - but it's worth it, even if you're falling out of love with fic, to read it. Just start - get to chapter 5. If you aren't up til 3am then just quit reading this blog...cuz it doesn't get any better than this!

Long story short - this is a very AU/AH fic about Edward (the Dom) and Bella (the supposed soon-to-be-accidental-sub). But you know what - whoops - they fall in love. There is mystery, humor, great side characters (I HATE MRS. ROBINSON!) and lemons. Oh wait - I need that bold and in all caps: LEMONS!!!!!!!

Nearly every chapter has them. They are all juicy. They are all hot. Did I mention the chapters are super short! So it's like 1 lemon per 1000 words. It works for me!

So, I know several of you don't like us reccing the multichaptered fics...but this one is worth it AND it's complete - I finished it in 3 days (ok, nights!) of reading. I think there are 87 chapters and a special EPOV outtake. The Epi is coming along shortly....

Here's a little tease:

“After you Miss Swan,” he murmurs, opening the door for me. He looks so casually elegant. I pause, fractionally too long, drinking in the sight of him… oh my… And I slept with him last night, after all the tequila and the throwing up… And he’s still here, and he wants to take me to Seattle, I just don’t understand what he sees in me. I head out the door recalling his words – I’m drawn to you – Well, the feeling is entirely mutual Mr. Cullen, I think, as we both walk in silence down the corridor towards the elevator. As we wait I peek up at him through my lashes and he looks out of the corner of his eyes down at me. I smile and his lips twitch.

The elevator arrives and we step in. We’re alone, and suddenly for some inexplicable reason, possibly our proximity in such an enclosed space, the atmosphere between us changes, charging with an electric, exhilarating anticipation. My breathing alters. His head turns fractionally toward me, his eyes darkest jade. I bite my lip.

“Oh, fuck the paperwork,” he growls and he lunges at me, pushing me against the wall of the elevator and before I know it, he’s got both of my hands in one of his in a vice-like grip above my head, and he’s pinning me to the wall using his hips… holy shit. His other hand grabs my ponytail and he yanks down, bringing my face up and his lips are on mine. It’s only just not painful. I moan into his mouth, giving his tongue an opening and he takes full advantage, his tongue expertly exploring my mouth. I have never been kissed like this. My tongue tentatively strokes his and joins his in a slow erotic dance that’s all about touch and sensation, all bump and grind. He brings his hand up to grasp my chin and holds me in place. I am helpless, my hands pinned, my face held and his hips restraining me. I can feel his erection against my belly… He wants me… Edward Cullen, Greek god wants me. And I want him, here now, in the elevator.

“You are so sweet,” he murmurs, each word a staccato.

The elevator stops and the doors open and he pushes away from me in the blink of an eye, leaving me hanging… Three men in business suits look at both of us and smirk as they climb on board. My heart rate is through the roof, I feel like I’ve run an uphill race. I want to lean over and grasp my knees, but that’s just too obvious. I glance quickly up at him. He looks so cool and calm, like he’s been doing the Seattle Times crossword. How unfair, is he totally unaffected by my presence. He glances at me out of the corner of his eye and he gently blows out a deep breath. Oh, he’s affected alright, and my very small inner goddess sways in a gentle victorious samba.

The businessmen exit on the second floor. We have one more floor to travel.

“You’ve brushed your teeth,” he says, staring at me.

“I used your toothbrush,” I breathe.

His lips quirk up in a half smile.

“Oh, Isabella Swan… What am I going to do with you?”

The doors open at the first floor and he takes my hand and pulls me out.

“What is it about elevators?” he mutters, more to himself than to me. I can just about keep up with him because my wits have been thoroughly, royally, scattered all over the floor and walls of elevator three in the Heathman Hotel.

Stay classy out there Lemonland- and drink a mimosa or two, or ten for me around 10:30am Sunday morning when I'm done killing myself out there in a my swim, bike, run!

MmmmmmMonday - In The Light Of Day

Good MmmmmmMonday Morning, dear reader!!! It's time to get back to basics with a MmmmmmMonday post that gives us exactly what we think of when we think lemons....

No, not that!


Yes! That's what Mama Pushy is talking about!!

Yes, Edward is back and in full panty melting mode! I am going to mix it up a little this week by having a new Edward/Bella pairing for me: Youngward and Cougarella. Now, I know what you're all thinking... Youngward is not new for The Lemon Sisters! We've already rec'ed Your True Colors, the amazing fic by our unbelievably talented friend, Betti.

BUT! Dear reader! Your True Colors does not boast a Cougarella and today's pick does. *smirks at self serving logic*

Yes, today I wanted to share the extreme hotness that is In The Light of Day by TKegl. In this story, Bella, the Creative Director at an advertising firm, has a rough run of luck. But she decides to turn it all around with a night out on the town with her best friend, Alice. Whom does she find admiring her at the club she and Alice wind up at? None other than the decidedly younger, but still sizzling hot, Edward! What starts out as a one night stand though quickly becomes more when these two are thrown together the next week at work. Awkward? Yes, but in that "I'm so hot for you and want to screw you on top of your desk" kind of way! Here's the tease from the one night stand:

He grabbed my hair, tilting my head up so he could plunge his tongue deep inside my mouth and I continued to stroke him. His hands dropped to my shoulders, hooking his fingers under the straps of my dress, then sliding the silky fabric down my body to pool around my feet in one fluid motion.

Whirling around, he pressed me back against the door, his eyes raking over my body, taking in my black strapless bra and matching satin panties. My hands flew back to the sides of my head with his frantic motion and he took both of them in one of his, holding my wrists firmly over my head.

"Shit," he muttered again as his mouth descended on my satin-covered breast and his hand slid between my legs.

I had to hand it to Alice. The guy definitely knew what he was doing.

He dropped to his knees, pressing his hot mouth over my dampened panties and I writhed, aching for more friction. He slid my panties down my legs, his tongue working insistently as fabric gave way to flesh.

"Jesus," I moaned as he added his fingers to the mix, thrusting deep inside me and twisting to tease my g-spot. I tangled my fingers in his hair and ground against his mouth, finally pausing to pull him up gently.

He looked up at me, his eyes wide and lips wet. "Do you want me to stop?"

"God, no," I groaned. "I definitely want more of that later, but right now I need you inside me… hard… and fast."

He smirked and stood, licking his lips and then his fingers as he kept his eyes locked with mine. Reaching into his back pocket, he pulled out his wallet and as he extracted a condom, my eyes fixed hungrily on the flesh exposed by his low-hanging jeans. He didn't remove them, just rolled on the condom and moved toward me, grasping my hips and taking one, long lick up my neck to my earlobe.

"I can do hard and fast," he said in a gravely voice, before plunging deeply into me.

I cried out, wrapping my legs around his waist as his hands went to my ass. His fingers pressed into my flesh demandingly as he pounded me into the door.

"Is this… what… you… want?" he growled in my ear, punctuating every word with a powerful thrust.

I moaned, words escaping me amidst the glowing pleasure curling in my center… twisting tighter and tighter…

"Say it…" he insisted, lifting me slightly to get a deeper angle. "Do… you… like… this… baby?" He was pounding furiously now, demanding my confession.

"Yes… God yes," I managed to mumble through tingling lips.

"Touch yourself," he commanded and I obeyed, trailing one hand to the swollen nub of flesh on fire between us.

"Shit," he growled in my ear. "I'm going to… fuck…"

I felt him begin to pulse within me and that was enough to tip me over the edge. White-hot pleasure shot through my body, radiating out from where we were joined and sizzling like an electric current along every nerve ending. He thrust twice more, then pushed deep, climaxing with a low moan as I rode out my own incredible orgasm.

Oh, yes! Youngward can definitely deliver!! And while this story's a little longer than what I normally recommend (it's just a little over 10K words), TKegl packs it full of so much lust and smexy times that you'll relish every word! The judges sure did, because it won first place in the Cougar Revolution Anonymous One-Shot Contest!

And I happened to find this story because TKegl wrote another amazingly hot one-shot for the Fun With Your Clothes On Contest, called All Aboard. You may remember us mentioning this contest because we also entered it. And voting starts Wednesday, April 21st. Just saying. So definitely check In The Light of Day and All Aboard out, you seriously won't regret it!


Enjoy!!!

What the hale!!!???

It's Friday!!!!

I had this post started in my head and made the lamo mistake to NOT write it down. And so I'm flipping through my blog roll and realize, "Hey YOU! Yes, you - so called Lemon Sister! You forgot to post!"

GAH!!!

Well, first I have to get some shameless promotion out of the way. When Pushy and I got together for our TLS weekend of shenanigans, we wrote a fun and steamy little one shot for the Fun With Your Clothes On Contest, named Show Some Class. Well, we teased it the other day but now it's posted and will be ready to be voted on to make the first round on April 21! We'd love your vote if you love the story! It's short and sweet and one of the few NON B/E stories.

Oh hell - I'll just tease you again with it:

Every day he watched me walk into debate. His eyes would slowly make their way up my legs, making my skin tingle as if his gaze were a physical thing. Every day at lunch he stood a little too close to me in the lunch line murmuring compliments and endearments in my ear with his seductive voice, no matter how rude I was to him about it. Every day he found a way to show up no matter where I hid once classes were out. Being the daughter of the president of the school meant certain things were expected of me and I certainly couldn't hide out in my room and pray for him to leave me alone. But short of total isolation, I wasn't sure how I was going to get him to stay away.

And if I was honest with myself, I didn't want him to stay away. No matter what I said to him, no matter what pointed barb I threw at him or dirty, disdainful look I gave him, he always smiled his sexy little smile at me, making me weak in the knees and hot all over. When he would brush up against me, it took every ounce of self control I had not to press right back. Watching him practice out on the rugby field, all hot and sweaty and manly made me want to throw him down on the pitch and rub my body all over him. But then I would hear that skank Jessica saying the same thing and I realized what fantasizing over him was turning me into. And I refused to become in any small way like Jessica "I say yes to everyone" Stanley.

So, while I suffered on the inside, on the outside I stayed cool. I remained the ice princess everyone called me behind my back. It didn't matter what my classmates said or thought. All that mattered was that I could look myself in the eye and know I was true to myself. I had plans. I wanted to go to Harvard. I wanted to become a lawyer. Maybe one day go into politics. I wasn't going to get to any of those places being some trampy mattress jockey in a plaid, Catholic school girl skirt.

Yes! So - next week - go read, go vote! We want to make it into the top 15! Wheeee!

Let's see - what else.....

A couple of my favorite stories updated...with some sexy lemony goodness.....

Your True Colors - sigh...Kiddoward. Did you see that Betti actually got a pic of the lovliness who inspired this story!!! Squeeeee!

The Training - by Tara Sue Me: Two words...Phone Sex

Late Night Encounters - by Kyla713: no lemon this time...but super romantic...*sigh*

What smexy updates are you excited about from this week??

Happy Reading!!

MmmmmmMonday - The Interview with NotWhatYoutThink

For those of you waiting for pictures from the big Lemon Sisterpalooza, you'll have to wait just a little bit longer. We'll dish about our absolutely fabulous day very, very soon - so stay tuned. But today is MmmmmMonday and we promised a thrilling interview. On Saturday, and as the final event of our amazing day, Pushy and I got to interview the lovely and mysterious, NotWhatYoutThink, author of Your True Colors.


NotWhatYoutThink may actually be What, or rather, exactly Who You Think she is. A few of our dear readers have figured it out by now, based on her rather unique writing style. And others may have just accepted her as everything she made herself be. But, it's time to come clean and set it straight. To me, this is incredibly important for Chapter 11 of Your True Colors , which is one of the best chapters in fanfic (and not just the lemon, though it is amazing!) I have read it. I urged NWYT to make this her actual debut. And thankfully, she agreed.

Introducing Betti Gefecht!

Are you surprised? Relieved you figured it out? Or just so happy to see her sweet face?

Just in case some of you don't know her yet, Betti Gefecht is not only a wonderfully talented Twihard (the bloggy buttons and banners created by her alter-ego, The Button Guru, are coveted by just about everyone in Twiland, she writes a super fun blog, has two additional alter-egos, Artsy and Fannie, who love to rec fanfic AND she is also a Twitter regular) but a wife, mother and accomplished musician. Now she can add amazing fanfic author to her resume of awesomeness. Check out her blog to fan-stalk her like I do! It should also be noted that she is German - so writing her fanfic in English is also quite an accomplishment, as English is not her first language.

Betti was so gracious to skype with me and Pushy. As you can see, we had a blast!

[Note from Pushy - Yes, I'm smacking UYP's arm there. She's one sassy chick!]

So first, the interview:

So the big question, why did you choose to be Anonymous and not Betti?
*groan* Because the story is based on true events in part and I wanted to wait and see if it works. I needed unbiased opinions, and I didn't want people read it just to be nice to their friend Betti.

Who is the real Kiddo?
He is young, blond and gorgeous; my morning goodie on my train and an intern who no longer works in the area. He's been the hero of a few of my wet dreams for a while.

Why/When did you begin writing Your True Colors?
Because it was in my head and Kiddo's real, but I was worried about English as second language. I wrote the prologue and put it aside for two weeks, then continued....But why? Because I wanted others to read it and I wanted to post it on FFn so I needed to add some Twilight to it to make it interesting for the readers. But I'm quoting Twilight a lot in my RL too, just like Annie.

We love your Illustrations. Did you make the Illustrations first or chapters?
At first it was the chapters first, but now the illustrations are pushing the chapters based on the vague outline.

Do you write or draw your Illustrations on paper, or the computer?
Everything is on the computer - all are photo manips.

Were you worried people would guess it was you when "NWYT' put up the blog?
Yes, but I have the button guru as a shield, so I figured people wouldn't wonder about the typical Betti-look of the blog.

Were you worried if anyone will be upset now that you've 'come out'?
Yes, but I always said if someone guesses and asks directly, I would always confess - and so I did. I also get a lot of PMs about the story and am worried those people will feel cheated on. I really hope no one will hold the hide-and-seek against me though; I just wasn't very self-confident as a fanfic writer.

How many chapters are left? Do you outline? How will YTC end?
Yes, I have a rough outline. But Annie and Kiddo don't want to get out of bed, so I don't know how many chapters. There are two alternate endings right now.

How scary was writing the first lemon?
*hides her face behind her hands and laughs* Very scary, because I wasn't sure that I knew all the English words to write it, I barely know them in German to be honest. But I just pictured it, so I wrote it down and there it is. I'm really glad no one watches me while I write; I act out everything! That means Betti moaning and panting in front of her computer. Really embarrassing.

Do you have plans to write anything else?
No plans, nothing in the works. This will occupy me for quite some time.

So, what's up with Law, he's not as old and crotchety as we thought.
When Kiddo takes Annie to meet Law it ends badly. Because he sees something between them he doesn't like and gets jealous. Law and Annie are the same age and are attracted to each other, which adds some discomfort.

[Note from Pushy, I have been authorized to share that since Annie is based on Betti, they are both in their forties: Betti is a smoking, hot 48!]

Would you like to talk about your diabetes and how it affects Kiddo's character?
I like to add things that I have experienced and are somewhat unique. What's going on with Kiddo is something I had to research but most parts of the characters are just taken from parts from my own life.

Who is the most misunderstood character so far?
Law right now. And most people are wrong in their guesses about what's "wrong" with Edward. But there are LOTS of hints already, so when you find out you'll read back and say, "OH, of course!!!" I'm intrigued by the strong sympathy with the characters readers show in their mails and PMs; they're discussing and asking about them as if Annie and Edward were real people. I would have never expected that, but I love it!

Will any other characters make an entrance?
Annie's boss becomes more important to the story.

*Mr. Betti interrupts to say hello! We want everyone to know he looks very dapper in his cap!*

What is your favorite chapter and what do you know what your readers' favorite chapter is so far?
I don't know about the readers, they always say each new one is the best, but right now my favorite is 15 - where Annie meets Law and things get really heated up and Kiddo gets jealous and reveals his issue. *laughs* Or maybe 16 where things out of this world happen.

Dear Reader: What are your favorite parts of the story?
UhYesPlease: I always come back to the part when Annie is dumping her purse out and Kiddo has to hold everything, especially when Kiddo sees the undies! The entire dialogue just cracks me up! However, my favorite chapter is 11 - as you'll see when you read it!

OnePushyFox: Well, I'm like the rest of our readers and have only read up to Chapter 10, but my favorite part was when Edward meets Carlisle the budgie. It's so sweet the way he connects with the bird. I know, I'm a dork, right?

Is there anything else you'd like to share with our bloggy readers, Betti?
First off... omg - I'm really relieved that I can stop pretending now, it was getting more and more complicated lately. I'm happy and thankful that so many people read my story and stick to it, and that no one said, "Go home, learn English!"
And I want to thank you, UhYesPlease, for your help and encouragement; YTC wouldn't be written without you.

Oh yes... and just in case: Real Kiddo, if you happen to read this - you have my number. Call me, ok?


It was such a pleasure for Pushy and I to have the day together and end it with a awesome interview with Betti! I adore being her beta and I can't wait to see what happens with Annie and Kiddo. They have my heart.

[Note from Pushy - I had an amazing time too!!!! And getting to talk with you and Betti was a blast.]

And now, as promised, here is a teaser for Chapter 11 . It's up on ff.net - so get on over and check it out!

His left arm trembled with the effort to hold himself up, but he paused once more.

“Don't move,” he breathed again.

And though I half felt as if I was losing my mind, I surrendered and let him take charge. Surprisingly, the other half of me relished the idea of not being in control.

“Ok... it's ok...” I assured him, panting.

He pulled his right hand up and placed it next to my shoulder, supporting his weight on both arms now. His trapezius muscles bulged as he did, begging for me to sink my teeth into them. The head of his cock skimmed my swollen clit. I bit my lips, craving for him to move.

Christ... Kiddo, fuck me already!

I raised my arms above my head and grabbed the headboard, desperately trying to give him what he had asked for. All I could think by now was that I had to have him inside me or die.

Please... Just. Do. It.

After a few more agonizing moments, he arched his back and his hips thrust forward in one slow, powerful move. He threw his head back and gasped, as he entered me fully. My walls tightened around him immediately, the sensation of him finally filling me was incredibly intense.

He pulled back a little, and a loud, sob-like cry escaped me. In a split-second, he stopped dead once again and let go a suppressed groan. It was sheer torment.

When he eventually thrust into me again, I grabbed the headboard harder, trying to keep myself from moaning, because it finally dawned on me that he was...

...he isn't teasing, he is...

...struggling with his self-restraint. My utterly adorable, but inexperienced young lover was trying to prolong this, and my ecstatic noises obviously didn't help his cause.

I could tell from the way his eyes kept holding mine, he was trying for me. He had opened his mouth in ecstasy, as he was slowly – much too slowly – moving in me, and whenever the slightest whimper escaped me, he would hold still for a second. His eyes wanted to roll back in his head, but he forced his gaze back on me again and again, appraisingly... lovingly.

He wants this to be about me.

The realization almost brought me to tears... this beautiful boy was the sweetest living thing. He wanted me to come first – and God, I would let him have that!

I reached one hand down between us to rub against myself. It wouldn't take long; I had been close literally from the very first moment he had entered me. I couldn't suppress another moan though, making Kiddo hold on again, and suddenly I felt his hand on mine.

“Please let me... let me do this for you, Annie.”

Thanks again, Betti! And as always - teasing you, our bloggy readers, has been our pleasure - have a great MmmmmMonday!

Our very first Lemon Sister author interview!

I know we've said it before, but one of the best things about this whole Twilight Sisterhood has been meeting all you lovely ladies (and the occasional gent). I am so in awe of everyone's kindness, wit, humor and talent! And I'm so blessed by your friendship.

Awwwww - group hug!

What better way to show our appreciation of your loyal bloggy friendship and also give a nod to some amazing talent in the fandom, with an interview with one of our favorite, new, fanfic writers.

Not only did she wow us with her amazing mini-lemon for this week's MmmmMonday's post, but she's also pushing ahead her posting schedule so we can hit a full fledge grab-the-headboard-or-seat-of-your-chair lemon for the upcoming MmmmmMonday post.

That's right, we are going to interview the virtually unknown NotWhatYoutThink, author of Your True Colors on ff.net! It will be a MmmmmMonday two-fer - Interview and Lemon Teaser!

NWYT is a little tricky to get ahold of. She's VERY shy, and when she approached me to read a few chapters of something that wouldn't get out of her head I said, "Of course!" And not just because I didn't want her to creep back into her timid shell - but also because I had a sneaking suspicion that it was going to be good. See, my old friend, NWYT is multitalented - she really knows her stuff. She was smart enough to get the amazing Betti Gefecht to draw illustrations for her to showcase on her blog (since she's not on Twitter). It's taken a me a few weeks to talk her into it - but she is ready. Ready to 'come clean' of sorts and declare herself an authentic-true-to-life fanfic writer! It may be a hobby - but she's the real deal! And this is a pefect time to do it - as I've hinted in my MmmmMonday post, chapter 11 is smoking hot. And really, NWYT needs to take credit where credit is due!

Keep your blogroll and Twitter checked - we're going to put the interview up, ready to post at 12:00 AM CST Monday.

And of course, this amazing lemon will be teased - and then you can head over to ff.net and read the whole darn thing. Don't forget to catch up on Your True Colors - Chapter 10 has already been teased on NWYT's blog and will be up today!

PS - OnePushyFox will be visiting me on Saturday!!! She's taking a whole day, driving 8 hours round trip, leaving her family behind, just to have lunch, watch New Moon and create some bloggy madness/hijinks with me! To say I'm excited is pretty much the understatement of the century!!!

[Note from OPF - I am THRILLED beyond belief to be making this road trip. And UYP, I'm expecting you to be wearing your Rack of the Week shirt! Mini-Edward has been pestering me about getting to see you "up close and personal" in that thing!]
