More from Sanguine, a science fiction novel (still in progress) with elements of semi-paranormal M/M romance.
(I am done with beta readers, and Sanguine is in next-to-final-edit stage, so this is still a work in progress and the following lines may or may not have been hacked and recombined and creatively punctuated to fit into 10 sentences.)
Kaen and Gregor have finished their shower and Kaen is making Gregor drink another glass of a health drink.
Gregor took a sip, then drank more deeply as his body accepted it and hungered for it almost the way it hungered for his Master.
“Good?” Kaen asked.
“It doesn’t matter what it tastes like,” Gregor replied. “I would drink it by the gallon if it would get me strong enough for you to feed from and to… enjoy.”
Kaen smiled. “Ah, Gregor… I do enjoy you.”
“You know what I mean.” Gregor looked away. Had he misread everything about Kaen?
“Say it,” Kaen said, his voice soft. “I need to hear you say it.”
There was something lost and pleading in his tone and Gregor turned to look at him, then gently reached up and touched his face, remembering that Kaen had been alone for a very long time, lost and wandering for centuries that had turned into millennia.

Novel Notes 
They have such a touching relationship.
Thank you. I’m glad to know that it shows.
Gregor is simply adorable! I can’t wait to see how their relationship evolves.
Heh. Parts of how their relationship evolves probably can’t be posted here…
A very sensual and poignant scene. I really like these characters.
Thanks, Gem. I really like them too. :)
Very affecting scene, but it also reminds me of when I used to give blood to the blood bank. (They won’t take me now, since I once used beef-pork insulin.)
Thanks! (And I’m laughing here. All those scenes of Kaen feeding from Gregor and THIS is the one that reminds you of donating blood. I love it!)
I like these characters and their relationship, too.
Thanks. I’m glad you like them.
These two are such a great couple. i look forward to another bit from them every weekend. :)
Awww. Thanks, Charley!
Sometimes you just need to hear the words. Lovely snippet.
Thanks, Karen!
