Some Panville
Prompt:
Her eyes just barely crested the water’s surface, enthralled with the image before her. She’d heard tales of humans. They were ugly and too pale. Gangly and nasty teeth.
But this…THIS human…
Pansy slowly inched closer as the man lowered himself into the chill water with a shiver. His clothes had been discarded at the pond’s edge. The dirt that caked his hands and smudged across his cheeks from his scavenging of the forest now washed away as he submerged himself under the water.
Pansy felt her mouth go dry when he came up, water trickling over the sharp features of his face, his hair darkened from the water. His eyes seemed to brighten with the reflections of the pond.
Her heart stuttered at the small smile that graced his plump lips and she imagined what it would be like having them against her own.
Imagined what it would be like to feel those lips caress and descend on her body.
She shivered.
The man continued to wash, rubbing his hands over bulging biceps and cut shoulders. She nearly let out a whimper when he raised further out of the water. Drops ran down the ridges of his torso, the fine v cut that pointed in a direction that Pansy wanted desperately to follow.
But this was a human. She shouldn’t be feeling this over a human.
The tales she’d heard…humans will only break a nymph’s heart, they always say.
She thought wryly that she wouldn’t mind if this human broke hers if she had a chance to ride this stallion.
As if sensing her somehow, his eyes locked onto hers. She felt frozen as that smile returned to his lips and that mouth opened to say, “Well hello there.”
