โThe night eats her up and she ๐๐๐๐๐ a lower rumble outside of human audible range. But she is ๐๐๐๐๐๐, and will race the moonlight until she outruns the sunrise.โ

the moonlight bestowed the eternal kiss upon her;
& he, born of night, hunted the wicked beneath the spell of her balefire.

There are days I wake and do not recognize the shadow I cast. The wild in me whispers, faintโlike wind through dying leaves. I used to run with stars in my teeth, but now even the night feels heavy.
Still, somewhere beneath this silence, the pulse of the forest beats for me.
@TenderPerdition โYou get one hour. The clock is ticking.โ
She nods. โThen we start now.โ
The moon cuts through the clouds above, full and watching. I donโt shift. But something inside me ๐จ๐ข๐๐ก๐๐จ.
@TenderPerdition Not in words. In hunger.
Bonnieโs gaze is too steady. I hate that it makes me feel seen. โWhat do you need from me?โ I ask her. My voice more low now, less defiant.
She hesitates, like she hadnโt expected me to ask. Then: โYour trust.โ
I bark out a dry laugh. โ
@TenderPerdition [A low growl coils in my throat, like heat wrapped in a dare to push you even further. The mix of tequila and you singes my senses. I need to taste every jagged edge you hide behind that fire, and I donโt care if it cutsโwe were never meant to be gentle.]
