The Falcon and the Flower (58 page)
The feel and smell and taste of him excited her to a wildness she had not experienced in months. Though they tried to prolong their pleasure, they could not control themselves and took their release together. She collapsed onto him and he gently laid her beside him and whispered to her of the beauty of their castle at Portumna.
“The last night I was there the beauty of the place was haunting. The garden was filled with the last of the large summer roses. They seemed to float in the moonlight. Then a big white owl flew silently through the trees and I knew it was the perfect place for my enchantress.” He smiled into the darkness as he realized Jasmine was asleep in his arms.
