Continuing with Ailbhe and Ciara, we find she and Braydon are settling in for a night by the fire. Unfortunately for Braydon, she's never cuddled with a male. She lays there, making no move to further arouse him. Braydon, perplexed by what he mistakes for disinterest, soon regrets his offer to provide additional warmth.

“I’m cold and can’t get warm,” Ailbhe said as she moved nearer to the fire.I've created a fan page for The Kalaydan Chronicles. Please stop by and give it a like.

“Here, let me warm you,” Braydon said as he moved closer to her back and cuddled spoon fashion, drawing the blanket over them both.
For long hours, with strange sensations coursing through her being, Ailbhe lay there marveling at the firmness which pressed into her back, wondering what it was.

How sad and frustrating for both of them! I hope someone makes a move soon. They shouldn't need a fire to keep them warm! LOL
ReplyDeletehi, Jenna! well, sorta. Ailbhe comes from a world on which there are no men. at least not anymore. i'm looking forward to writing the scene when she realizes exactly what a man can do. :D thanks for stopping in and hope to see you next week.
DeleteI daresay she's going to have the surprise of her life when things start to progress. Looking forward to more, Grinelda!
ReplyDeletehi, Patricia! i think the fun part will be her education about males and the dispelling of the misnomers about them common on her world. thanks for stopping in and commenting.
DeleteHmm, inquiring minds want to know. Wonder if she will turn around and look. Nice snippet, Grinelda.
ReplyDeletehi, Kathryn. she's unraveling the elements of sexuality she's experiencing. though she has a partner who isn't present, she recognizes some of the symptoms but doesn't understand why. he's about as alien to her as the Jox (another surprise) are. thanks for stopping in to visit and comment.
DeleteI love a good scene of sexual awakening, and the last gasps of that innocent mindset. It's such an incredible transition from virgin to non-virgin.
ReplyDeletethanks, Carrie-Anne, for stopping in. i concur. though, she's not exactly a virgin, with regard to sexual gratification. :D thanks for stopping in.
DeleteI loved this excerpt. It is hot but just enough to keep you wanting more. Her doubts of herself now and what has happened are evident but I have a feeling curiosity will get her in the time to come.
ReplyDeletethank you, Damian. i appreciate your stopping in to comment. your impressions are right on, except the self doubt. just say she doesn't really have a frame of reference for males.
