Just a little something I had in my head. I threw it into the massage challenge, but it's really more introspective and appreciative than anything else. I made a few changes. Hope you like it.

Touched

Every fine line, every wrinkle, I know them. Every perfect curve, every swell, I've traced them. I can find them with my eyes shut. With my finger tips. With my mouth. Every detail of her is ingrained in my memory. When I sleep. On a case. When I feed with another. The seemingly insignificant specifics of her body I know better than the back of my own hand.

So I look forward to these moments. Little ones in the grand scheme of things, but massive in my heart and soul, leaving me more fulfilled than any chi ever could. My hands gliding across her flesh once again, following the path they know so well. I close my eyes. My senses taking in every faint moan of pleasure, every breath of her vanilla scent, every movement of her very human body.

You never realize your power of touch until you focus on it, both giving and receiving. The feel of her silky skin beneath my fingers. Every tiny tremble I elicit. Every time one of her muscles contracts and relaxes against the stroke I apply. Each subtle sensation turning my body electric and bringing a smile to my lips and my heart.

She likes to think she's sneaky, that I don't know this little game we play whenever she wants this is because she's so sure she'll win. She is smart yes, beyond brilliant for sure, but not when it comes to this. Or maybe she is, and knowing that I like to lose is her plan all along. Either way, I couldn't care less. It's a bet. One we make often. One I know she loves to win and I have no problem losing.

Does she know I throw the game? Does she care? It's irrelevant anyway. We're both winners here.

She's enjoyed the few times I've beaten her, making her pay up with the same sensual massage she requests from me, but this way is much more rewarding, for both of us. No matter who begins, it always ends the same, with both of us having a turn voicing our satisfaction of a game well played over and over, much louder than Kenzie would prefer. But I like to be the one in control. You could say I like to be on top, but really, its all about her. I revel in any opportunity to show Lauren that no matter what my nature is, or what my body demands of me, she is my soul. She is my one true north. The one I will always need in more ways than she understands or believes she is worthy.

So now I sit here straddling her back, both of us naked, flesh pressed against flesh. With every pass, every knead, every stroke along her shoulders and torso, I worship her. Not just her body, but her mind, her heart, her kindness, her humanity. I savor every second that we have together. Nothing is ever a given. Even with centuries ahead of me, this crazy Fae life I'm stuck in could end at any minute, but I will never take her for granted again. I will never let our anger, or differences, or pasts, or futures get between us again. For life is too short. Hers far more than mine.

As I roll her over and stare down into those adoring brown eyes that sparkle like none other, sparkle only for me, I feel complete. Her eyes are the one place I see everything good about me, about life. Not the darkness I hold within. Not who my parents are. Not what the prophecies say. Only hope, acceptance, love and light.

A mischievous smile tugs at her mouth and my stomach flutters. She pulls me down to her, lips sweeter than the finest chocolate or ripest fruit. A kiss so tender my heart skips a beat. Only one can make this succubus swoon. Like a blessing from above, somewhere beyond the heavens or realms of my father, her love fills me, gives me strength. It saves me from the empty life that could have been. The life of a creature that would otherwise know only pleasures of the flesh. No matter where I am, she's always with me. Will always be with me. For all the gods and demons of this Fae world, I've been lucky enough to be touched by an angel.
