This is like a shiver, that takes hold of your whole body and when it's done, you don't think about it anymore. And then you shiver again, and you remember what it felt like, all that time ago.

Haunting and breathless. And the sex was hot, and full of love, and touching, and ethereal. Beautiful.

I can't even express how much I love this comment. Thank you so much!
