It’s like a sickness that comes over him — one
minute he’s killed a political figure and the
next he is desperately seeking out human
contact, seeking out a way to relieve himself
of the thick cords of tension wrapping around
his muscles, controlling his movements,
making it harder to breathe — as if without
these strings he will dissolve into nothing but
a shell.
It isn’t ROMANTIC—- not by any means. It
is animalistic, it’s a twisted addiction that he
cannot rid himself of. It’s the clash of tongue
and teeth, the grate of hips mercilessly willing

what is it that they say about the meeting
immoveable object and unstoppable force? )
His hand shoots out. The kiss breaks.
But o n l y for as long as it takes him to
pull wandering fingers away from his body,
to circle his fingers around that wrist and
push it up, against the W A L L . They fall
back onto each other, lips on lips and a
thrum of energy expending out their chests.
( no words– there are no words. )
