Every Thursday, a group of writers gets together to post excerpts of current works in progress. This week I'm sharing a little more of my current project, His Cemetery Doll, a story of a ghostly lover in a haunted graveyard.
Please support the Thursday Tasters by visiting the link at the end of this post and visiting the other wonderful works posted this week!
Somewhere in the slow flurry of sensation,
Conall realized the doll's lips were moving. Really moving, as he kissed them. Instinct overtaking him, he slid
his tongue past them and searched for hers to respond. She met him, and her
mouth proved warm, soft, eager, and pliant. Her fingers came up to his chest,
though, and very softly, nudged him away.
He found himself a bit out of breath.
Moreover, he realized he'd started to warm, himself, feeling flush with heat.
She appeared to be searching for him,
even though her hand still rested on his collar. She tilted her face up to him,
lifted her chin up as though straining to say something.
To his surprise...she did.
