Maggie StiefvaterI touched my lips to hers again, and this time, it was a very different sort of kiss. It was six yearsโ worth of kissing, her lips coming to life under mine, tasting of orange and of desire. Her fingers ran through my sideburns and into my hair before linking around my neck, alive and cool on my warm skin. I was wild and tame and pulled into shreds and crushed into being all at once. For once in my human life, my mind didnโt wander to compose a song lyric or store the moment for later reflection. For once in my life, I was here and nowhere else. -Sam
