“Please,” she whispered, and it was all I needed to hear. After all, consent was the sexiest word in any language.

I parted her legs with my own and started grinding against her in the most intimate places.
I take in a deep breath, enjoying the intoxication of the moment. I stood in front of that huge crowd and loved every second of it. Who would have thought that the great trickster, the god so used to staying in the shadows, could have so much fun in the spotlight?
Her touch zapped me like a bolt of electricity. The warmth of her hand soothed me, even though I wasn’t in any pain. There was undeniable comfort as soon as her flesh touched mine. Her gaze flickered as it met mine. My eyes felt like they were about to water, as if I’d been punched in the nose.

Equity comes at a price.
Balance is worth the cost.
