Totally Different

The silhouette kept speaking, but I was past listening. My entire world had narrowed down to him. The shape of his body, the warmth of his presence, the steady thrum of his pulse just beneath his skin. My instincts screamed at me, louder than any voice, louder than logic itself.

Jasmine purred in my head, her voice a silken whisper that dripped with excitement. "Yes, yes, hurry up, Mara. He's ours. He was always ours. What are you waiting for? Sink your teeth in already!"

My fingers curled into the fabric of his cloth, drawing him closer, pressing my trembling body against the solid warmth of his.

The moment my teeth sank into his neck, the world spinned.
