The Quieter Kingdom

36 Smell

"This is a dream, every perception gaining speed…"

Her kisses are soft and urgent. He feels winded, as if he is in a race and unable to keep up. It's difficult to decide whether or not he should just give up and give in…

Or whether he should roll her off and put himself on top, take charge and take her…

The back of his mind whispers warnings that are unsure and half-hearted. Her brothers are but a few paces away, along with a large camp that would find his current position with their Golden Queen quite alarming.

Her breath finds his ear and he makes his decision.
