Stolen moments, skin on skin, they lay breathless.
Wait for me he whispered as he wiped away her tears
I’ll wait forever she promised through her fears
The thought of another in his arms weighs heavy on her heart
Yet she waits for his return whenever they’re apart
The relief of seeing his face makes the darkness take flight
She’s happy to have him back to love for a few stolen nights
But the thought of them skin on skin is weighing heavy on her heart
She lays awake knowing he sleeps beside another when they are apart
Wait for me he whispered as he wiped away her tears
I’ll wait forever she promised through her fears

Balthazar At The End Of The Night
The city of Ananias was bathed in the lilac of a coming dawn, casting the stone buildings in an ethereal glow. Balthazar padded slowly along the cobbled road with Imma beside him. It was only a few more streets until the two tigers would reach the barracks and be able to pass on their duties to the next set of guards. Balthazar was more than ready for rest.
