Hunter laughed full heartedly as he fell down on the blue wrestling
mat. "Love? Tell me something? Are you going to trip your attacker?"
I had put my foot out in front of Hunter's right leg as he walked
past me and tripped him. I thought it was a step up but what were the
chances that my attacker would give me an opportunity to put out my foot?
"I'm sorry Hunter. I'm not as physically strong as you are." I fell
onto the mat beside him.
"I know. I'm just trying to show you that magick does not solve
everything. Next time you're in trouble use magick only as a last resort if
it is a mortal attacker." He pulled me close to him.
"Why not just use what power I do have? Distract him from me with a
noise. like sirens! Then I can run away!" I looked into his eyes
pleadingly. Physical defense did not appeal to me.
"Fine. Stick to your strengths I guess. Whatever makes you happy."
Hunter pulled me close to him. The heat and energy coming off his body
amazed me. It reminded me of how much I wanted to be with him. alone.
A wave of flirtatiousness rose within me, "Hunter, are you
insinuating that I'm weak? That I can't take you down?" I rolled in such a
way that I pinned him to the mat. A knee on each side of him and a hand
holding each wrist down, I kept a good grip.
He laughed once again, "You can take me down. but can you keep me
down, Morgan?" With a grin pressed on his face he rolled me to the right
turning the tables. His wrists twisted playfully from my hands and gripped
my forearms. Passion overtook the moment. Hunter's eyes fell into mine. The
deep green of his eyes were like puddles from the earth.
Suddenly, his lips fell upon mine. The harshness in his touch didn't
hurt. Footsteps started along the gym floor. Hunter and I stopped to see
who it was. There was no one to see.
