I Steal a Few Breaths From the World, For a Minute

Elysia was captivated by the beauty of the glowing plants all around her that she hadn’t heard him coming. But his scent hit her nose just in time for his voice to cut through the night’s silence. Her eyes flickered from the natural light to his gaze. She knew that scent even before his voice and now her own eyes confirmed it. “Scald” she called back to him.

She hadn’t expected to run into him here. In fact it had been some time since she’d seen the pretty boy she’d met on the island. Much had changed since she’d last encountered him. Her body now held scars. She was not just a beauty anymore, no she was a beauty with battle scars. A story.

Pulling herself from her spot, she stretched out her limbs before sitting across from the familiar face. “It’s good to see you again handsome” she purred, as she looked him up and down. He was still as handsome as she remembered him to be. Oh Ezekiel really wasn’t going to be happy about her trip now.
