“You did not wear it today, I see”
“Sophia, you can’t see.”
“Not completely, Elijah. What are you really doing? Your working schedules are odd.”
“I’m just doing what I need to do.”
“No-you can’t just leave again. I want to know.”

The snow on the path prints my footsteps as I walk along an unfamiliar path where only lovers know. I feel my phone vibrate through my winter jacket and I pick it up to answer,

It sounds normal. Sounds human.
“I may not see things clearly like you, but take a closer look at our surrounding. They are all created for something. A purpose. You might be created differently. People around you might say that you’re a monster-that’s because you don’t look like a human being. You were a thing, before-you told me. Your master created you, did not love you since you couldn’t feel any emotions.

    I lift my hips in encouragement and feel his every stroke land in the deepest part of my belly. He shifts forward, because he knows my body also, and swirls his hips, eliciting a long, low moan from me. He releases my hands to capture my breasts, pausing the ramming of his hips against mine to suck on them hard, pinching the skin and biting the tender swells. When he showers my shoulders and neck with kisses and love bites, I grasp and pull him into me. "Ugh, Jim, make me…"…

With the camp’s protection being down and most of the campers going back to their families for the summer, this meant that there were very few of us to guard our safe haven. Not to mention I was still recovering from my broken ankle. I decided to take a walk down to the beach near the camp. Lately, I’ve found the sound of crashing waves, wind brushing through my hair, and the slight smell of salt hitting my face very soothing ever since I had met my best friend, Percy Jackson.…

God made us in His image so that we can have a connection with Him. He wants us to glorify Him here on earth.…
