Into the Deep
by Lynn Saunders
Luminescence is the moon-drenched sea at midnight, starlight
sparkling against rolling black waves. A slide of sand
beneath his toes, a surge of the tide, a tang of salt, and
he resurfaces a few yards out, shaking water from his hair.
She is a silver fairy, knifing toward him through the
darkness. Surely, capture by such a creature means losing
his heart, yet perhaps it was never his to keep. She reaches
for him, takes hold. Now, he thinks, I'll tell her all my
little secrets. Now she'll hear them.
He draws her near, through water dark as ink. The version
of himself mirrored in her gaze is wild, a predator with
sea-slicked hair and moon-bleached gray eyes. He wants to
show that ferocity, what he is capable of, to reveal
every hidden piece of himself and fill each empty corner
with a part of her.
Slick skin glides beneath his fingers.
"Say my name."
