The east side of the city is the very heart of Sacrosanct - it's unique skyline is a clash between modern sky rises and small Victorian-inspired storefronts. In the heart of downtown, the sleek colored glass buildings reign supreme though their old-world roots can be seen in the most peculiar places from the lamp post styled electric street light to the stone sidewalks. The old world architecture slowly returns the further from downtown you travel, however. It's here that magic thrives, it hums in every stone and can be felt in every breath. Often, newcomers to the city may become overwhelmed by such sensations but, eventually, it becomes an ever-present feeling that's hardly noticed.

With one hundred floors and a 125-foot spire, the Starlight Tower rises high above the Sacrosanct skyline. More than just a landmark, the Starlight Tower offers a unique mix of restaurants, shops, and offices spaced throughout the building. Organized into nine verticle zones, each of which features a sky lobby and a light-filled garden atrium which merge the upscale interior with a faux landscaped exterior setting.
I do not know Isolt's history with lovers nor do I care in this particular moment. She hasn't asked after my own conquests so it is only good manners that I do the same. I care only that she's here with me in this moment, wanting me just as much as I want her. I feel the slight hesitancy of her hands but I only grow more gentle with my own, more reassuring. I want this to be perfect for her. I know this is right. I move down over the desk as she leans back to grasp at the edge for support, my body caressing her own with soft brushes of skin on skin. At least she doesn't have to worry about being soaked in sweat since that's one of our strong points. No feeling of temperature so no need to cool off. I'm too focused on the events right now to care that I'm not breathing at all. My mouth is too busy over her chiseled collarbones, her silky skin, her slender neck, her mesmerizing mouth. My hands continue to grasp hers, squeezing her fingers in reassurance every time I feel her withdraw a little. I want her here with me, completely as I am with her. My gaze locks with hers more than once during our dance, her fingers working magic over my spine as I arch my back into her touch, savoring every tingle. As I angle with her, so does she, our dance as coreographed as if we had rehearsed beforehand. Her back arches up, her perfectly shaped mounds pressing into my chest and I relish the sensation, drawing my mouth down to them more than once for some very deserving caresses of lip and tongue, even fangs. I don't dare to pierce the alabaster flesh though, too concerned of her reaction. My rhythm deepens and quickens as we both rise in unison, both fighting to bring the other to that ripe revelation of ecstacy. Her lips find my neck and I groan, tilting my head to give her more access as I feel the tantalizing rake of her own fangs on my flesh. I know that I'm getting closer, my thrusts harder and faster with every stroke as I tighten my own grip on the desk, looking into her eyes so I can watch her come undone. "Isolt, I love you." The prayer from my lips as I pull out, only to fill her once more. |
