This is the epilogue to ‘Shadows Fall’, but it doesn’t give anything away about the story, so well… Happy M/I-reading Disclaimer: the usual, so definitely not mine.

Her skin was like velvet, and he wanted to caress it forever… Up and down her spine, and down even further to touch her hipbone, then all the way up to her breast…

She smelled like fresh rain and orchids, a vivid garden and he wanted to bury his nose in the crook of her neck forever, breathing in deeply.

Her voice was that of an angel as she purred his name, her laughter like music to his ears… Then her moans… Heavenly chords when he moved his fingers across her delicate skin as if he was playing the piano.

Their lips met in a passionate, yet tender kiss….

She tasted like honey and wine… The devil in disguise, but he couldn’t turn away anymore. She pushed him back a little, smiling her secret smile before licking her lips. Then she kissed him again, caressing him…

Velvet wine when she let him into the heart of her…

thrust…

Orchids in the rain as they danced

Thrust… thrust…

And sweet, sweet honey…

She rested him against her breast, their breathing still heavy and ragged, and he started listening to her heartbeat…

thudthud…thudthud…thudthud…

Like the steady tread of a galloping horse…

Calming like an eternally flowing river…

Serenity… and he’s found his home.
