<strong><em>Elijah and Maddi, Kira nearby</em></strong><br/><br/>Elijah was entranced as always by Maddi's beauty when she wanted to alluring.  As she placed her finger along his lips, despite his internal resolve to hold out until later, his body began to respond.<br/><br/>"My wonderful Maddi, you are going to kill me.  While dying in your arms is the way I plan to go, you should probably wait until the insurance policy goes through before attempting to murder me this way."  Elijah took Maddi in his arms and tenderly kissed her lips, tasting her, wanting her, taking her.  His tongue slowly invaded her mouth where it met with an equally insistent foe.  The two wrestled for a while, before both were declared victors and settled in to enjoy the spoils.<br/><br/>At first, Elijah's hands just held Maddi, enjoying the feeling of her body crushed against his, but as his ardor increased, his hands eventually began to roam up and down Maddi's back, feeling her lean muscles tensed with enjoyment.
