Waking to a Dream
“Wake up, darling,” his voice a childish purr to my ears. A smile spreads across my closed lips, lopsided and sleepy. My hand dances in patterns by my side, absentmindedly stroking the still warm but vacant space beside me. I roll over, observing the left side of the bed, confused to see nothing but crumpled sheets. Warm beams of light, transcending through the open window and trickle down the opaque drapes; delicately floating on a warm sea breeze, soak the ornate bedroom in an angelic haze. Rich, floral scents and coastal sea birds in rhythmic chorus invigorate my senses.

Waking up with You
I wake up mumbling and groggy. The right side of my face feels squashed from sleeping face-down on my pillow. I slowly bend my fingers; they are numb and feel alien to me. My legs are stiff, the aftershock of a night one can’t ever forget. After our early dinner at Coco’s and a fine bottle of Cabernet franc, we eased into hours of dancing, our bodies close, in crowded hotspots around the city. I smile at the memory of how we were; how we laughed, how we looked at each other, and, how we kissed. I tentatively stroke my lips with delicately-stepping fingerprints. I remain in my nostalgic haze for a moment longer, a sweet reminiscence that only foreshadows future moments to come.

Shadows of the Underworld
Deep within the abyss of the underworld, where an eternal gloom reigned supreme and the haunting cries of lost souls reverberated, emerged an intricate love narrative, entwined with both sentimental tenderness and heartbreaking bitterness. Prepare yourself for the saga of Hades and Persephone, two souls inevitably linked by the threads of destiny, yet mercilessly torn apart by the stark irreconcilable difference of their divergent realms.

IT SHOULD HAVE ENDED.
It should have ended. Those four words echoed through my mind as I stumbled through the dark woods, my heart pounding with fear. I knew that I had made a mistake, that I should have turned back when I had the chance. But it was too late now. I was lost, and I was being hunted.

Vibe Check
“This is me, the Beetle.” All at once, his hands were on her; lips on hers. The kiss was hard, rough, soft, and long. His beard so rough on her lips; she ached for it to explore her body. A moan escaped her lips. She wanted to pull him closer, but she was off balance. Oh, this is dangerous, she thought.

Still Life
Redolent with sex, fading perfume, and… wine? Ah, yes, the dark stain on the rug. The scents combined as she returned to their nest. In the moonlight, raven-wing lashes spread over his cheekbones, some dark curls plastered to his forehead where perspiration had stuck them and then dried. She eased around him, his skin soft as a blanket over firm muscles. She couldn’t resist the urge to run her fingers through those dark curls. His eyes lazily half-opened, and the world faded away. He tucked her against his chest, she was consumed by a love that could not be duplicated.
