Is It Love?



Her heart fluttered; the heat between them was intense. Moving in sync, they grooved and got the best of the night. She moaned, and he begged for more, with his salacious arousal heightened.


He didn’t want to go there with her. She was someone who deserved more and better than that. He took what she gave and responded appropriately, leaving the obscenities at bay where they belonged.


After they copulated, he became bold and realized that she was still hanging around, something he was not accustomed to. With her, it didn’t seem to bother him, and he wondered why?

I know her life ain’t easy, and at the same time, I still fall into the same small talk I desperately want to avoid. Cause just looking at her I know it’s not easy.

Hiram is perplexed but willing to indulge as I force his arms open for the hug of a century, I’m squeezing so hard he issues a little cough, but I don’t let go because I think I’ve found what I’ve always been looking for and realize that I can make the Carpathian Mountains my home after all. I’ll learn to sew pretty embroidered blouses and sell them at the ma
