Time for another Guest Feature. and I feel extremely lucky to be hosting an author and friend that I admire and follow. I'm sure you will too. So give it up for Kendel Davi, a wonderful writer who deserves all the recognition we can give.
Thanks for the invitation to share, Naomi.
I’ve been writing since I was just a teenager but I didn’t diving into writing erotica until I was a sophomore in college. I had transferred to a university in another state. I had a serious girlfriend at the time and in an act of attempted fidelity, I wrote down my erotic desires in my journal so I wouldn’t act upon them. Ironically, she came to visit me and while I was in class, she decided to read my journal and was convinced that I was cheating on her. Ironic, right?
However, what that did was free myself to explore all of those desires in the flesh as well as it allowed me to meet a woman who was equally curious and open where we could explore these desires together. I was living in New York City then and I allowed myself to witness or personally experience a diverse cornucopia of carnal delights but what stuck with me more than the acts themselves where the people involved. It was a multicultural, sex-positive world that opened up to me where the people I met not only share what they liked doing by why they liked doing it.
I didn’t write erotica for several years until I stumbled upon an old footlocker where I had placed my journals. Shortly after that I was in an accident that required surgery and while on the mend, start to explore publishing my work. Naughty Nights Press published my first short story Umoja Means Unity, an interracial group sex story with homoerotic overtones. Around the same time my short story Tongue Tied came in second in the Girlzporn.com 1st Annual Short Story contest. I was hooked after that. I devoured as much erotica as I could trying to learn as much about the business side of the industry as I could but I started to notice that a great deal of the stories and novels that I read where reflective of my experiences as a person and writer of color. I did find some wonderful work out there but I had to dig deep to find it and felt my voice would be a nice addition to what already existed out there.
That’s where the idea of Sensual Characters, Limitless Diversity comes from in my writing. For me it’s all about complex characters working through their emotional burdens through their sexual desires.
I still work hard to get to the truth of my characters in my writing, which allows me to be open-minded about the kind of sex I write about. It’s all about the hero/heroine’s journey and as much as I understand creating categories and genres when marketing your work, I just write the stories that I feel strongly about.
I want my readers to know, whether the story is M/M, F/F/, group sex, transgender, interracial, historical, comical, BDSM themed or any other grouping that their getting a Kendel Davi story, filled with complex character construction and erotic situations. As an erotic writer or color, I see the world from that diverse point of view and the stories and character I write about reflect that. That’s who I am, that’s what I write about, and will continue to explore from my unique point of view.
The excerpt that I want to share with you is from my short story
A Not So Simple Kiss.

The excerpt that I want to share with you is from my short story
A Not So Simple Kiss.
Blurb:
Alyvia, a mid-level fashion model, is asked to write a book about her life to raise her profile by her agent. She hates to write. She doesn’t dwell too much on her journey from a small southern town to the runways of New York, but once she paired up with Roman, a novelist and TV writer who is assigned to help her with this task, she finds herself consumed with his luscious lips.
Alyvia has a new problem, now. The thought of Roman’s lips are more of a distraction that her lack of desire to write until she finds a way to motivation herself, Roman’s lips for her words. After their deal is made they soon find themselves exploring each other and discover new ways to inspire Alyvia to write.
Excerpt:
Roman studied my pussy, grazing his finger across his lips, lost in thought. I grabbed the edges of my t-shirt and held it like a dress right before you curtsey. My legs swayed with anxiety, waiting for the words to flow from his lips. Then he dipped his fingers into his mouth and placed them on my inner thigh.
“The smoothest cocoa skin, accented with the finest black sugar sprinkles, sheathed the entrance to her temple. As many times as this thought has crossed my mind, being here now allowed me to marvel in its beauty. An exquisiteness that couldn’t compare to the limitations of my mind for I had never witnessed anything so elegant.”
Damn, he was good. I felt his breath on my leg when he spoke. Each syllable kindled my desire. Then he ignited my aching need when he caressed his fingers upward.
“Rich, like a burgundy dahlia, my mouth waters to nourish it, massage life into its petals with my tongue, and worship it.”
He could’ve stopped right there and I would’ve been ready. This was worlds away from Damn, girl. That pussy looks tight. I eased my hips towards him, feeling every breath he took, waiting for the moment where his lips and tongue would touch me but Roman was just at the beginning of his journey. As he continued to move his hand up my leg, Roman extended his middle finger, brushing against the length of my pussy while his other fingers softly parted my misty lips. My eyes sparkled as he opened his mouth and extended his tongue. Waiting for his wet flesh to touch me forced my legs to shake but Roman rolled his tongue into a funnel and sent a focused jot of intense air to my clit. I shut my eyes as my body flooded with heat. His determined cyclone forced me to clutch his hair and draw his mouth to me but his middle finger put a stop to that when he curled his finger and slipped inside my pussy ever so tenderly. My essence clung to the skin of his digit as he stopped the stream of air from his tongue to speak.
“A solitary ruby hangs above the glistening rosy walls of her entrance where my finger has gained purchase. Its beauty made more alluring by the ebony skin that encases it, drawing me closer. And with a curl of my finger I accept its invitation to anoint her temple with a gentle kiss.”
Roman bent his finger, shooting my hips forward and landing his lips against my clit. I held his head tight to my body as he sucked my erect knob like a hungry baby on his mother’s nipple. My body quaked from the delicate movements of his finger. I gripped his head, expecting a rapid lashing from his tongue to push me over the edge but there was no rush. Each lick was designed to soothe, caress, and excite me. His deliberate pace, as enjoyable as it felt, was also killing me in the gentlest way. My past had me anticipating that he would soon stop. Forgetting where he was right now was exactly where he intended to be for the night.
