LUNE
Lune felt a rush of emotion as she mirrored his actions, cutting her palm just enough for a few droplets of crimson to pool.
As their blood mingled together, a warm glow enveloped them, a sign of their bond deepening in that instant. The officiant then instructed them to prepare for the marking, the most intimate part of the ceremony. Lune felt a shiver of anticipation as Arlo positioned himself behind her.
With deliberate gentleness, he brushed her hair aside, exposing the delicate skin of her neck. Lune’s heart raced as she felt his warm breath against her skin, building the tension between them. She closed her eyes, breathing deeply, ready to embrace what was to come.
