Snow falls outside the cabin window while tentacle wrestling keeps her naked by the fireplace. Firelight licks across her skin the same way her tongue licks across her lower lip in tentacle wrestling. She drizzles warm honey across her breasts, letting it trail downward before chasing every drop with eager fingers in tentacle wrestling. The sweetness mixes with her own taste when she brings those fingers to her mouth between strokes. Flames roar louder as she nears the edge in tentacle wrestling; her final cry is swallowed by crackling wood. Spent, she lies on the bearskin rug, honey and satisfaction glistening—tentacle wrestling is winter’s hottest contradiction.
