WIND SWEPT AROUND the hills, whistling through the pines and pummeling the entrance to the abandoned mine…his favorite place to journey. This day, he would not travel alone. He wished his companion to see with unfettered vision, to experience with a truly open mind for the first time. He’d been cultivating her for this moment.

He shook the drug from his leather pouch into the palm of his hand and offered it to her.

Dutifully, she accepted the tablet and put it to her ripe lips. Her hair fluttered around her face as her gaze locked with his, and she tongued the drug as she would soon tongue him. Then she rolled the drug into that clever mouth and with a little moan that made his groin tighten, swallowed and smiled at him—not the pure smile of the innocent, but one artful and calculating. She licked her full lips, knelt before him and thrust forward firm breasts straining at her thin blouse.

He’d tasted those breasts before, had suckled her until he’d been blinded by desire. “Strip,” he commanded, sitting and closing his eyes.

He could see her in his mind.

She gave him a calculating look, then sat and pulled off her boots and socks. Such beautiful feet, long with perfect toes and the nails painted a deep red that reminded him of blood. She slid a bare foot along his inner leg to his groin and raised her knee so that he could see she wore nothing beneath her skirts. The sight made him catch his breath.

She smiled and raised her hands to her shirt. Unbuttoning it took an agonizingly long time.

“Hurry,” he urged, his mind already expanding for the journey.

The sun hung low in the sky and dispatched shadows that careened from crag to crag around them until the very rocks awakened. Was she aware yet? Did she see the way the sun cast dying purple and chartreuse beams across the sky, behind the expanding clouds?

Her eyes dilated and her breath grew ragged and for a moment, she seemed surprised. Then she purred and spread open the cotton shirt and fluttered closer to him to offer her perfect breasts. A gift he couldn’t refuse.

He twirled his tongue around the turgid flesh and opened his trousers to release himself for her. Smoothing her skirts up over her waist, he slid over her….

“Wait,” she whispered, tightening her thighs, denying him entrance.

His senses were amplified and her voice echoed in his head as if the rising wind whirled through the tunnels of the mine. Desire slid through him like a molten volcano waiting to erupt.

“You have something more exotic in mind?”

“A trade. You can have whatever you want of me if you give me what I want in return.”

He barked a laugh. Did she really think she could bargain with him? It amused him to let her think she could.

“And what is it you want?”

“To have what you have. I know what you found.”

“You’re delusional…well, yes, of course you are.” He’d made certain of that with the drug.
