HER eyes feast on the art of His flesh 

Her sex starves for the want of it

Weeping comes from the folds of Her virtue

Flushing cheeks, not from a fever

Muscle and sinew under painted skin

A living sculpture made just for Her temptation

Perfection made by Her Goddess, a gift just for Her

He stretches in waking malaise, drawing Her gaze

Displaying all of of Him for Her appreciation

She trembles, pulses, craves,

A hand wanders, withdraws then She looks away

Inhale... Exhale... Weakness... Silence...

The need to be filled with the life of Him 

Shames Her as His heartbeat pulls away

The desire to kiss Him, at the top of His spine

as She always saw Her mother kiss Her Father  

Fighting the urge until Her soul bleeds, 

He waits, stilled by the longing He Feels from Her

She can taste the bitter iron of Her battle on Her tongue

Dressing in the color of death instead of the living colors of her Lineage

She waits as His grief says goodbye to His beloved ghost

White bone and empty eyes remind that she still lives in His heart.

He walks 

He walks, carrying His parents' pride

It was always His dream to lead to the way

It was always her hope to be His luna one day  

they walked together in dreams that lied

they walked  


she went

she went to the Moon's side 

she went to face the mate her heart did betray

he waited for the mate his brother hoped would stay

he  waited on the Moon's side

he waited


She stands 

She stands on His right  

Her obligation is to show Their unity this day

He cheated Her, yet Her duty to Their pack holds sway

He cheated Their light

He cheated

They say Alphas are born, 

They say Lunas are made.

The Luna-that-is facing the Luna-that-will-be.
