I would love to share with you a Scene from my upcoming Paranormal Romance with Fantasy and steampunk elements, Homecoming. This Scene is not part of the entry, just something steamy to start the fest.
 

His gaze dropped to her mouth, and he trailed his thumb over her lower lip, transfixed. His mouth tugged faintly at the corners as it came crashing down on hers, rough like his voice and impatient and desperate. His tongue swept across her lips, seeking entrance, and she opened up to him, let him claim her. He showed her how much he’d missed her with his lips, telling her she was his with his fingers gliding along her jaw, then folding on her neck and pulling her close. So close no air passed between their bodies. He deepened the kiss, sliding his hands to her hips and pulling her flush to his body, his claws digging into her skin. The kiss, the way he held her, reminded her of the last kiss he’d bestowed on her before she left him. Passionate. Reverent. Tender. A kiss that said “You are all mine. Mine until the end of time.”

Her hands slid up to circle his neck and pulled him lower, wanting more, everything. Her fingers skated their way up to dig into his cropped hair and she moaned. Gods, she was powerless to him.

He groaned at her response, pinning her to the wall with his hips. “Sera,” he murmured against her lips, following the words with a nip of fangs on her lips. “My Sera.”

We look Forward to reading your Scenes! :)
