A New Journey, Part III

“This is bliss…”

“Is it really?”

“Yes, it really is.”

Wu Jian stared down at the woman using his lap as a pillow. Scintillating blonde hair several shades close to brown traced artful curves across her body and trailed down the chair like a curtain. He ran his fingers through those locks. Her hair was softer than the finest of fabrics. It was a clear indication that she spent a lot of time grooming herself. Most alchemists had greasy hair because of the chemicals released when they were refining pills.

Zhou Lihua’s body was a work of art. He glanced at her wide hips as she lay on her side and wondered what it would feel like to grab those hips whilst in the throws of passion. He shook his head. There would eventually come a time when that happened, but it was not now.

“Can you tell me more about our itinerary?” he asked.
