[She always knew that tonight would end this way. As soon as she put on her dress and him that suit and felt the way that their eyes had roamed over the other, it was only a matter of time before they both gave in to their desires. What she did not know was that they would be accompanied by such intense emotions. It's not as if they hadn't played the married couple before—this is what, their third time?—but that, alongside the rest of it, had only emphasized those feelings they share. The wish for something more.
She does not want to rush, but how much longer must she wait? And it is not even about him. She knows that she need only say that she is ready and he will make it happen, but how much longer must it be before she is ready? There is still so much to do, so many threads left unravelled, and the pinpricks at her back remind her of the one of many things that they still have to solve. Her wings... She wants her wings so that when it is finally time to give all of herself to him completely, she has finally picked up the pieces of herself that she needs.
Right now, though... Tonight, she can indulge again in the fantasy and allow him to do so as well.
And though he does not say it, she can feel that demand on the way that his lips take hers, and how his hands touch her. In everything that he does. She returns that sentiment equally, a silent whisper that if he were to ask her now, she might very well have said yes, so lost in him that nothing else in the world matters. That is how it tends to go, isn't it? So why is it so much more...?
These are all thoughts that leave her the moment his hands find her skin beneath the dress, and the clattering of the jewels across the floor reaches her ears, the sound making her shudder because of the promise that it holds. She senses that he intends to make good on her words, in both of the ways that she had meant, tonight and later. Senses that whatever thread of restraint that either of them still had, shared between them, has snapped after a long night of wanting.
And it will turn into an even longer night of giving in. With the rings still around their fingers, the touch of the metal a cooler contrast to the heat of his hands on her, it feels as though they burn into her, that reminder imprinting itself again and again upon her skin so that she might never forget this feeling. Her own touch carries those same intentions, reminding him of what it is that is waiting for him at the end of this road.
More importantly, that they would chase it again and again in the many nights to come...]
