[SE] Ignore all the burdens that you keep

Tryin' to wash away all the blood I've spilt
This lust is a burden that we both share

Maea would find that Liam, too, was easy to read. Here, now, with her, there was only openness and honesty in his hazel eyes. Only the desire to love her and worship her and please her, laid bare upon the cavern floor.

The thrust of his hips chased away any lingering tension on Maea’s face - or on what he could see of it, anyway, from beneath her arm. His trailing fingers elicited a hum, and then a sudden flinching half-laugh; filing the spot away for later, Liam nonetheless continued his exploration. His hips moved slowly, steadily, rocking more so than snapping back and forth, and as Maea peeked out from beneath her arm, laughing, Liam couldn’t help but join her.

Leaning forward to kiss her, chasing her laughter and joy and trust , Liam slipped his hand behind her back, encouraging her to arch into him and leaving the ticklish spot behind. Instead, the soldier rolled to the side, pulling Maea with him until she was straddling him, her pale hair cascading over her shoulders. With both hands now free, he reached to tuck a lock behind her ear, running his fingers through the silky strands as he cupped the back of her head to pull her in for another kiss.

Two sinners can't atone from a lone prayer
Souls tied, intertwined by our pride and guilt
