“Yes to all of that.” He kisses my jaw. “Wow.”
“Indeed.”
“Here, let me.” He pulls back slightly, his eyes take on that look of intense focus, and then we are clean. The mess between us gone, and we’re lying simply skin to skin.
“That’s incredibly handy.”
“Isn’t it?” He grins.
Gently, I run fingers along the length of his wings. “These are magnificent. Can you feel that?”
“Yes.” A tremor brings him even closer.
“What’s it feel like?”
“Mmm…nice. Sensitive like the skin behind your knees or at your wrist. I like it.”
“Me too.”
“I was afraid you wouldn’t.”
“I know. I regret that. I’m sorry.”
He matches my caress; only he explores my horns. “And this? What does this feel like?”
“Just a bit of light pressure. They aren’t all that sensitive. My tail, though…”
He switches to stroke my tail instead where it clutches his waist nearly of its own accord. “You were saying?”
A delightful shiver races up my spine. “Oh, that’s extremely sensitive.”
“Where? How so?” He lavishes his attention along the length and to the soft little nub at the tip.
“Gods, that’s nice. Like”—I search for a proper explanation—“like when your nipples are teased and you feel it in your groin. It’s like that.”
He lets out a breath and gives the nub a gentle squeeze. I quake; it feels so good.
“I see. Lovely.”
We explore each other in the warm, magicked air, one slow touch at a time. One new piece of flesh at a time. One drawn-out moan at a time.
I’m overjoyed to be alone with him like this. No one around, no one on the other side of the walls, no sounds from others, only the soft sighs of our breath between us.
To think, this will be our future. Close enough to The Twig to maintain our friendships, far enough to bask in our privacy and enjoy each other however we like. And oh, how I enjoy him. He’s hard again. I am too. With so much possibility between us, I’m drunk on choices.
Sebastian tweaks my nipple, snagging my attention. “My turn. Fill me. I need you.”
A fine choice. Smiling, I grab him, flip him over, pin him to the blanket, and give his neck a love bite.
“Anything for you.”

Our house isfull to bursting with friends and family. Candles flicker and glow in each window, packages tied with ribbons lie stacked at the hearth, and a feast is spread for all in the kitchen. Sweet and savory scents collide to tease our appetites. Joyful conversations ring out around us. Laughter and warmth swell in the rooms.
