The challenges that lay ahead seemed distant as we reveled in the present, holding onto the promise that each shared moment offered.

The memory of our shared kiss lingered, a reminder of the depth of our connection and the potential of our shared future.

And then she took me by the hand and led me toward the bed.

The meal had been an even bigger success than I expected.

The food looked rich and bright, its flavors just as incredible.

The flavors exploded across my tongue and zipped up into the depths of my brain.

And then we kissed.

But it wasn’t just a kiss.

It was something else, something so much more.

If my eyes weren’t shut at the time, I swear I would have seen sparks, but not sparks of common fire but sparks of magic, or two threads from life’s tapestries rubbing together to create a Moment.

A Moment of truth and honesty and, yes, intimacy.

I took Ceara by the hand and led him toward the bed.

It was little more than a cot — several pallets pushed together with a thin layer of foam acting as a mattress.

But it was all we had.

Hell, it was all we needed.

All thoughts of the Supervisor’s plan left me and I felt calm and confident as I sat down on the bed and allowed myself to be alone with the beast.

He sat beside me and I leaned forward and pressed my lips to his.

I could still taste the sharp tang of the fruit he’d shared with me.

His tongue was long, like an eel, and it slid easily inside my mouth.

He was a surprisingly good kisser, lacking any of the haste and roughness I might have expected of a creature so large.

I leaned back onto the cot and he came with me, careful to brace most of his weight on his forearm or else he might have ended up crushing me beneath him.

His lips never left mine, and we battled slowly, sensuously at first, exploring, probing.

He kissed down my face and found the base of my neck.

He sniffed, breathing my scent in deeply, and I noticed the change in him immediately.

My pheromones had evidently sent him into a berserker rage, except it was controlled, even if only shallowly.

His lips returned to mine and this time they were filled with passion as he kissed me so long and hard that I lost my breath.

By the time he broke it, I was panting for oxygen.

He hitched up the flimsy uniform they had given me to wear and immediately pressed his mouth to my sex.
