Chocolate Craving?

We all crave chocolate at one time or another.

So why not have some fun and create a few items to indulge in?

1 bag of chocolate chips

dried fruit

favorite nuts

Now put a half of cup of chocolate chips in the microwave.

Cook it for about 15 seconds.

Stir,

repeat cooking for about 10 seconds

Repeat until completely dissolved.

Then try dipping different items like the dried fruit in the chocolate mix.

My favorite is to take melted chocolate, shredded coconut and walnuts. I mix them together and make my own candy bar.

If you want it hard, just set it in the refrigerator for several minutes. (This doesn't work for men, cold doesn't get them hard, go figure.)

Feel free to share.

Have fun,

Heavenly Bodies

It was late, too late to be at the pool alone but Mark said to meet him here.

And with a body like his who could resist?

Not me.

The moonlight lit the area in a soft light, creating a romantic mood. I was enjoy my time in the island paradise and only had a few more days until I had to head back to cold winter weather of the northeast.

Mark had been the first person, I'd met after walking into the hotel. We hit it off from the start and had hooked up a few times on different excursions around the island.

Tonight, though was different. We'd finally be alone.

Sinking a little deeper into the pool, I noticed the man who'd occupied my dreams for days, walking toward me, the gentle sea breeze ruffling his blond hair.

It almost seem unfair that he could look so good in a bathing suit...muscular chest, tight abs, muscular arms.

"Ashley, are you already in the pool?" The deep tone of his tone had me excited without him even touching me.

"Yes, I'm over here in the deep in."  Boy was that ever true. What did I really know about this guy?

"Great," he answered and threw the towel in his hand on a deck chair and then dove in.

I giggled as anticipation tingled through my body. Then he appear right before me. His hands circled my waist and he smiled. The white of his teeth drew my attention to his wet lips.

"Hey, I'm glad you decided to show up. I thought with the place being deserted, it might give us a chance to get to know each other better."

Right, like how great it would feel to have my hands all over you.

For days now, I'd imagine being this close to him. Light touches had excited but hadn't satisfied the hunger growing between us. I hadn't plan on having a holiday affair, but there wasn't anyone at home waiting for me either. So why not?

He slipped his hand over my back and tugged at the tie for my bathing suit. The fabric covering my breasts loosened.

Enjoying my own foray into wicked delights, I ran my hands over his biceps and shoulders. The hard muscles played against my palms before I wrapped my arms around his neck. "I guess you weren't think about a midnight swim."

"I envision a different type of exercise." He eased me back against the side of the pool and hard line of his body held me in place.

My legs naturally floated along side of his and I lifted them to circle his hips.  The thin fabric between us didn't hide his desire. "I don't feel as if I can move much in my current position. Do you plan to do all the work?"

He grinned and dipped his head to nibble along the side of my neck. "I'm sure before the night is through we'll both get a workout."

(Pause)

Seeing as I've had no comments. I figure I should stop here.

However, I'm think I need a post for 69 Shades of Smut on the Oct. 26th. Think I'll finish the story there.

Thanks for joining in for the fun,

Anita

Retelling the Sheik's Story by @authorvictoriav

The Sheik Retold

by Victoria Vane and E. M. Hull

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

BLURB:

A haughty young heiress for whom the world is a playground…

A savage son of the Sahara who knows no law but his own…

When pride and passion vie for supremacy…

Blistering desert days are nothing compared to the sizzling Sahara nights…

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Excerpt 

Restless, I moved about the tent, listlessly examining objects that I already knew by heart, and flirting over the pages of some French magazines. I should have been elated at his unexpected absence, yet in my perversity, I was strangely unstrung with anticipation of his return. Now the utter silence only oppressed me.

Where was Gaston? Even the servant's company would be preferable to my own. I guessed he must have gone with his master or perhaps he was long retired. I went to the flap of the tent and gazed out into the night. The camp, large and spread out was covered mostly in a blanket of blackness, broken by the occasional glimmer of a sparking fire.

I had dreamt for years of this experience, of a month spent in the desert and now here I was. I had longed for adventure. It is what I had sought, so why could I not turn this tragedy to my advantage? I had food and shelter that was far superior to any I could have provided for myself. And I was surrounded by hundreds of armed men. Whether I viewed them as my captors or my protectors was only a matter of perception—a matter of choice.

I knew I was safe. I had seen the depths of deference, the authority of the Sheik's command. Any man outside of himself who dared to touch me would suffer death. Of that I had no doubt. The only thing stopping me from enjoying my adventure in this vast oasis and my freedom in the Sheik's camp, was my own desperate desire to cling to a state of chastity I truly cared nothing about. It was only my pride that stood in the way of my pleasure, and my refusal to allow him to take it from me.

I chewed my lip as I gazed up upon the stars glimmering in the heaven like countless brilliant diamonds shimmering against a backdrop of black velvet. I wondered if in the great scheme of things, my pride was a bit over-rated.

This entire evening I had bucked with resentment against the pretense that I was a willing guest here, but had I met this same Sheik in Biskrah, in more conventional circumstances, if I had only been properly introduced, would I not have willing, even gratefully accepted an invitation to his camp? Only a week ago I would have jumped at the chance. What now prevented me from embracing that role? From enjoying that status— for as long as I had planned? I smiled to myself. Yes, it was all just a matter of perception—except for the bartering of my body— the Sheik's expectation in return for his hospitality.

My smiled dimmed.

I could enjoy my month of holiday as planned, as long as I would willing serve his needs—and all that implied— in his bed.
