Opening the gates like a Djinn.
Opening the doors to the Country.
Christmas and all it meant paling by comparison. Childhood memories of opening
gifts. Opening Goldsmith. Emanuel. God is with us.
Martin had suggested they start tomorrow, Christmas Day.
Albigoni had shaken his head. My daughter was a Christian, he said. I am

Ernest moved above her in the absolute darkness setting her loose to fly
through large interior spaces enjoying the round pleasures. Perhaps there
could be a long good life with this man. Perhaps the career peak would come
soon and she would have done the most that was in her, leaving her time and
energy to concentrate on another a companion a barrio sweet. She moved beneath
him and felt pure shink platinum in his caresses, doing nothing for the moment

package soft pleased intent his flesh his attention all of it.
Giving by receiving. She saw all there was to lose by losing her self. Going

pressing all around.
Angeleno, he accused.

You re an exotic country. You made yourself; surely you can t begrudge the
lust of a connoisseur.
I m entertainment, eh?
Ernest grinned and ran a rough palm up the smoothness of her thigh. For a
moment she did not want him to see the blanching of her buttock crease and
then that seemed silly. Seeing so much else more intimate if less flawed.
lnner lips black, he said. You are truly a dark woman. Not just nature s
halfhearted night; you are dark where sun never dares inquire.

Ow, he mocked. Sucked his fingertip. Urn.

caressed his warm damp back reached down past muscled ribs around hip, found
him distracted.
All day tomorrow? he asked again.
We deserve at least that much. I can stay in touch if any news comes in.
And then. He lay back beside her and she swung up over him, encasing hips in
thighs, releasing more voluntary moisture to smooth the way.
