Friday's Flash: In the Garden of the Mariposa

Friday means time for a quick and delightful bit of flash fiction!

"Friday Flash" is a project by a sexy and creative group of authors, inspired each week by a photo to write a snippet of fiction, 100 words or less.  This week's photo carries so much promise....

 

Inspired by the above, I give you:

In the Garden of the Mariposa 

 

Her gardens, a sanctuary of  butterflies, were the stuff of legend: to get home, he would have to pass through them, a task much deadlier than any would guess. 

He didn't see her until she revealed herself: a lithe, lovely body stretching languidly in the grass, newly awaken from a sunny afternoon nap. She opened her eyes to gaze at him; they were the color of fiery rubies.

"Elvyn Knight," she exhaled. Her body moved with clear suggestion. "Have you come to try and steal my wings?"
