Ah, good day to you, reader, so good of you to come. You're in for a special treat today, I'm changing my format. It has been pointed out to me that it's probably not your wish to be my lover in my stories, so I'll create a new dream lover with each story. And if you choose to step into her shoes, that'll just be our little secret, okay? (Wink) I'm looking forward to the new textures this will allow me to feel and explore as I write. May it fuel my ever-present sensual passion.
That said, tonight I want to take another pass at a previous story I wrote, 'Wolf Calls'. I had greatly pulled my punches as I wrote that, taming it much more than I had wanted to in order to continue to hold your approval. I'm not going to go back and re-read it first, I'll just write this fresh for you and see where it goes. So are you ready for my new writing experiemnt? I promise to make it wild and passionate. A little edge-of-your-seat excitement if you catch my drift. (Wink) I'm not sure just where to begin, so I'm just going to jump in with both feet and let the story write itself again. I'm not sure where this story will go exactly, but if it rubs you the wrong way then I apologize, this story is unique in my collection, so none of the others will affect you the same way as this story will.
The skies above are darkening, the wind sends its pitched tones through the trees, through the leaves. There is the slight chill of encroaching autumn. Tinges of pink have begun to trace the horizon glimpsed through the forest. The leaves above, still a moist green this time of year, flap back and forth as they are blown by the occasional gusts. Moisture gathers in the sky as it drinks its fill. Anything is possible tonight.
I stand beneath an ancient oak, a hand pressed to the soft, deep moss on its trunk. I'm breathing deeply of the forest smells. Pungent moist soil. Fertile moss. Humid, late summer air. A breeze also brings me the tangy scent of pine though I see them not. Soon enough, the Sun will fade until my visibility shrinks to the size of the clearing I stand at the edge of. The oak I touch seems to have pushed back all the trees beside it as it grew. This is my place, this clearing, this tree, well off the path the villagers tread. I take stock, extending my senses as I close my eyes, feeling the forest breathe as I revel within the unfathomable nature of Nature. A gasp. From me? No, to the west. I feel it now. I feel her. She walks along the path, feet unsteady as she hurries to her destination before light fades.
Darkness brings danger here, even within my forest. The villagers call this Stillmoon Park even though there is nothing tamed or cultured about this natural expanse. It is named Stillmoon for its reflecting pools of clear water, which is strange for standing pools to be crystal clear. Stranger still, the villagers legends that to gaze within the pools on nights when the Moon shows full will reveal a glimpse of future truth to them. Who am I to disprove their belief?
The unsteady footfalls come closer together as well as nearer to where I stand listening. There is urgency in their sound, the glimmer of haste in their flavour. Closer. Closer. I fade into the invisibility the trees offer up to me. I become shadow.
Her steps wander little yet branches snap and pop as her path takes her further from the common forest tracks. It...tastes...like she's coming this way. I can only hope. Still no scent yet, the gusts travel in wierding paths through this part of the forest. That is why I have never been tracked here. This wood protects me as I have watched over it. Symbiotic comfort.
A puff of air fills my nostrils. Yes, she is of moderate age, leaning towards the younger. Scent of a light perfume, perhaps only soap as the texture is crisp. Closer. The next scented wisp is pulled into my mouth so as to taste her. At one hundred yards I taste her sweat, a tinge of fear, the urgency clearer now. Her intent unknown, yet she is welcome here, I taste no malice. Closer.
The dark above has deepened the hues to umber and azure, Moon fading into position by inches. I tread softly around the tree, a shadow soft and still. Ivory white canines flash an instant in my smile, she has come to me, I see her fully now. Piercing hazel eyes that scan the brush for signs of my location, hair now slung loose from the long trek. I see her lips curling upwards to a satisfied grin. Softened material holds her in ways pleasing to the male eye, silently offering up her ample breasts to be caressed, adored. Hips full and soft, almost designed for the gripping. Her village clothes complete with engraved dagger strapped over her chest. I gave mention of the forest's danger.
I step from my cloak of shadows. A sharp sound accompanied with the clamour of steel across the boulder by my thigh. As I speak, my voice comes out a rumble, to my ears I perceive a heavy Russian accent, perhaps my name is Boris. "Your senses ever-keening, Tatjana, it is good to see you again, too."
The leather of my boot catches the metal edge, flipping it back through the air until Tatjana snatches it into her grasp by the hilt. Her smile comes playfully, lips visibly becoming fuller as her arousal heightens. Her own voice heavily accented tonight, "sorry I am late, Lover, the millhands proved to be all hands. My work harder as result."
