The only time he wasn’t worried about the future was when she visited. Her stopovers were so infrequent however, that he had never been able to find a pattern; some timing to count on, to look forward to, to fantasize about.
He waited, mostly empty, impatient, merely existing, barely breathing, until she appeared out of Nowhere, took his shaking hand, and made love to him without the slightest whisper. She ravaged him hungrily, fully, silently.
Rising on her haunches, sated, his skin in her teeth, blood dripping seductively from her ravaged lips, she leaped once, twice, and again to reach the next detour out of Forever and back to the place from where she had come.
Another tormented soul waiting for a moment’s bliss even as it seeks to destroy him. Nicely done!
Yes, what is it about that? I’m not sure he’s human, but based on his ability to keep himself needy and “tormented” –as you said, he certainly acts that way.
Whoa! Scary and wild.
Halloween is near…
A “wild” ride indeed!
Wild is my new middle name. LOL!
Britton…wow I did not expect that. Well done. Remind me not to go to his house anytime soon.
The question is, could you satisfy him?
Wild evanescence indeed…really felt his anxiety and then the sated moment before it all starts over again!
Hello Lisa! Yes, poor guy seems to be addicted…
Certainly didn’t turn out to be what I had expected, so you’ve nailed that one (no pun intended)! If this was an ongoing story, you’d have a certified reader of it here – very well done.
Mark, thank you for coming by, and for your encouragement.
Poor guy.
My kind of girl, though.
Did I really count only 4 sentences here?
Cheers!

Ooh, good catch. I just amended it. Thank you!
With or without the suggestion of vampire love, the wildness of unabated passion has a way of making time stand still. You capture that wonderfully here.
Thank you Deborah. I seem to be very aware of passion in its various forms lately. I am quite fascinated by the contrast between complacency/apathy and passion-how each can leave us in a desprate state, but just the one can lead to bliss.
She seemed more animal than human, some “wild monkey love” going on there!
“She” is one powerful being indeed!
It’s hard to tell who is the most needy – they both seem to need something that only the other can provide – very passionate!
I had not considered her own need, only her ravenous appetite. You have nailed her deeper truth!
I want to know where Nowhere and Forever are, so I can go there and meet this woman!
Yes, powerful passion worth pursuing, despite the obvious danger. Oh to be sated, if only for a second!
This was powerful !!!
Excellent. I liked the imagery in this, and the use of Nowhere and Forever as place names. Well done.
Thank you Sandra!
This is slamming! Raw, intense, powerful!
Hi Michelle – I’m so glad you enjoyed this one and felt its power!
