Silver and deep eminence leaves flittered and fluttered upon the branches above, creating a mirage of magical sights. Yet as they shimmered, no light danced through their leaves in this world bereft of celestial beauty, forever enshrouded by a ceiling of black. And though I greatly missed the sun, moon, and stars, I'd gladly trade them all away for this tenderhearted moment that I shared within the arms of the otherworldly man... who had his freaky tongue down my throat.

The eerie call of undead ravens echoed throughout the mystical woods, while the light of the lantern continued to set the amethyst cluster aglow. It's luminescent prisms softly beamed like an enchanted throne for the mighty tree which twisted it's roots around it. And just as the thicket of roots furled against the glowing stones, my legs wantonly wove themselves around Valarendrik's waist, eliciting a low primal growl from him. 

His roaming fingers caressed their way along my sides to grab at my hips, then he pressed the long hard evidence of his desire against my heated center. Upon feeling his masculine touch, a quiver of excitement twinged just below my bellybutton, while my core became aroused with aching need. The memory of my first orgasm flowed through my mind like the river in which it was wrought, triggering a surge of lust throughout my entire being.

Hastily, I began to push his jacket from his broad shoulders, revealing the distinguished muscles of his perfectly sculpted upper body. He tugged it off the rest of the way, then carelessly let it crumple to the mist laden ground without breaking our kiss. It was now my fingers turn to caress down the ash kissed skin of his chest, feeling the hard outline of his provocative pectorals, then drift further down to the seductive sequence of slopes forming his tight abdominals. Just the alluring feel of him alone was enough to set my blood aflame, and I had no doubts that I wanted this man.

He reluctantly broke the kiss then lovingly looked down into my eyes. "Lucilia?" 

"Yes, Valarendrik?" I breathily replied, while gliding my hand back up his stomach, then over his strong biceps.

His pointer finger lightly traced the arch of my brow, leaving little pleasant tingles behind. "I am truly overjoyed that you've agreed to this. But..." He hesitated for a second. "I can not honorably continue without informing you of something first."

I nervously bit my lower lip, wondering what it might be. "What is it?"

He slightly shrugged while waving his hand in a circle. "Well, you see, not only are males of my species instinctually aggressive and dominating during copulation, we also produce a fair amount of precum that acts as a, um, powerful aphrodisiac." A spiky fang poked out over his bottom lip, as he anxiously stared down at me, trying to discern my reaction.

...Um, what?

My brows furrowed in confusion. "Your precum is an aphrodisiac?" 

He shrugged again. "It's a defense mechanism to send the female into a lust filled daze, so they'll become too disoriented and overpowered to, um... eat the male." His crimson eyes nervously shifted between mine a few times. "Do you still wish to continue?"

"It won't hurt me, will it?"

"No, I would have never asked this of you if it would." A few strands of his silky hair flicked over my upper arm, tickling it a bit.

I awkwardly cleared my throat. "Alright well, I don't think that's going to be a problem then. So yes, let's just continue on."

An excited smile brightened his features, then with unsteady hands, he unclipped the serpentine clasp of my cloak, letting the shadowy silk slip from my shoulders and loosely swirl upon the thick root below me. Using my feet, I quickly kicked off my flats, causing them to disappear within the slithering mist with a couple of swirling puffs. He leaned back onto his knees to allow me to sit up.
