She was the brightest jewel in my desert of riches.
Nothing had changed.
Cascading black hair.
Bright Topaz eyes.
White-porcelain skin…
Her beauty was ageless.
As a skeikh, I had my pick of lovers.
Daily.
But Myriah was different.
And no longer a mere mirage of my past.
She was there.

I couldn’t resist tasting her again.

My responsibilities,
Including my desire for her,

What the sheikh wants, the sheikh always gets… Views: 213
