Shepard was more than a simple commander.

His word was almost God's.

He was a god.

His strength, was overpowering. His sight, was overbearing. His life, was seen to be overrated.

However, when she saw the god Shepard was, she could say easily he was not that. She learned centuries ago that to judge a book by its cover is simply suicide. Shepard was wrathful in a battle, in a hunt for a kill, yet gentle and smart. He was a leader. She had wished she had his strength years ago.

When he came to her, it had been so hard to resist.

She wanted his strength, his power, his blood and his skin.

Those beautiful eyes. She had never dreamed in years that one so young could touch her. She told him he must not give into temptation.

She was as well say this to herself.

As she tried pushing him away, she joined her hands with him.

As she tried to avoid his eyes, she stood and looked at his stormy blue.

As she heard his simple, but powerful words, the words of a god, she wanted to become a goddess at that point. Yes, yes she could find happiness with him...

'No.'

"In... another time." She told young Shepard, locking him away with her own power. His breath was on her purple lips. She could taste him and it tasted good, cool, relaxing. But her own pains stopped her from reaching her lips. Shepard could have any other woman and they would fall for his charms. She had fallen long ago.

But her pain resonated more.

So she walked away, away from the Starboard Observation deck, and imagined his kiss, never looking back to see his hurt eyes.

In another time, another space, she was Samara, the goddess, and she was his.

End.

A/N: I always wondered how Samara felt when Shepard tries starting a romance with her. And yes, to me, it seemed she wanted it, especially when she almost gave into temptations. To me, the only way she could have stop it was because she had pains in the past she cannot deal with as of yet. She's afraid of losing another. She has lost the daughter she has admired, maybe the lover she has lost, making her follow an ancient Code, even though the Code doesn't permit her from love. She doesn't want to fall in love again... but too bad, cause she is. Hehehe. I always wanted to do this. I hope you guys enjoyed.
