Prologue: Present Day
The moonlight throws a shadowy silhouette on the night.
Glimmers of slivery light play peek a boo with the warm, breezy night.
She calls.
I stand there listening. Listening in the stillness of the night.
The bayou beckons me, urging me forward under the starry moonlight.
I hear.....I hear her calling my name.
l want to be out there dancing amongst the the many faceless faces of the bayou.
I feel the whispering,feathery kisses of the light breeze against my skin. They dance a playful jig on my skin igniting a fire as old as time. Hot and searing they leave a trail that scorches my soul, awakening something deep within.
There's a stirring within me.
It's strange and yet it's familiar.
I sway motionlessly with the breeze,dancing to her tunes, hypnotized.
Through parched lips I let out a gasp, reaching a hand out trying to grab a fistful of the night only to come up empty.
She calls out to me.... beckoning me with her seductive sway.
I feel this want in me answering her.
I feel the stirring within me. I can taste it's hot liquid warmness pooling at my feet on my lips.
I lick my lips.
Mhmm...
