Summer Solstice

by Erica Bale

It's midsummer and the inhabitants of a small community are preparing for the annual solstice ritual, a ritual performed by two of the village youths and meant to ensure good luck, health and wealth for the community. Miri's been chosen this year and she's a little nervous. After all, losing your virginity is a big deal for any girl; doing it with someone you've never met makes it that much bigger; and doing it in a sacred ceremony in front of the whole village - well, that's in a whole other league...

She doesn’t have time for more questions because they are now standing in front of Serena, on a large rug spread out on the grass and scattered with brightly coloured cushions. Kyle enters the circle at the same time as Miri and her mouth drops open when he comes to stand beside her.
He’s naked.
Thick black markings cover his body – matching those on Miri’s skin – but, unlike Miri, he isn’t covered at all and every inch of him is on display. The wine makes her bold and her eyes drink him in, starting with his feet and working their way up. Heat flares in her belly as her gaze moves up over his firm thighs, lingering on the swirls of ink that curl around the jut of his hip before dipping down low over his belly and...oh!
He’s already hard....

About the author

I love to write.

I have a very vivid imagination, and writing gives me an outlet to explore it in great detail. I write erotic fiction, sometimes with a supernatural element, but always with explicit content.
