Spin the Bottle

[Miltone]

Dining in ...

"That would be wonderful! I haven't had a home-cooked meal in days. I'll meet you downstairs."

I paused before slipping out of the room.

"Are you expecting any guests tonight? I think it might prove quite interesting to all present."

 

[Mystical]

"I have no idea. They come when they can."


Heading to the kitchen when I got no answer at Ambers room I began to make Chicken Cordon Blu one of my speciality's. After seeing it into the oven I head back out to the chaise by the fire place to wait for my gentleman friend.

Mmm, that aroma ...

As I joined Mysti downstairs, she had obviously been working wonders in the kitchen for the aroma of one of my favorite dishes filled the lower rooms. I joined her out by her chaise. She was fingering the lovely blue jewel hanging from a delicate silver chain about her neck.

"I have been reading up on that piece," I said sitting beside her on the chaise. "It is a very rare jewel with special powers."

 

[Mystical]

"Awe and what kinds of powers does it hold?" Smiling I motion for Armond to check dinner so it will not burn. As I turn back to my dear friend I motion to the bottle of shnaps sitting next to me. "Would you care for some on a night like tonight it will warm the blood and the bones." I smile coyly at the double edged meaning.

Sitting back against his firm shoulder I wait for where he wants to start.

 

[Miltone]

Warming up ...

I poured a glass of schnapps for each of us and began to tell her of the powers of the jewels.

"The jewels are ancient relics taken from a sacred mine in the Andes mountains of Peru. These in particular are rumored to be able to transport the holder and their companions to another place and time of their desire."

She took a sip of the schnapps and smiled warmly. I felt her lean into me as I spoke.

"Have you noticed anything special when you hold it or touch it? I experienced visions when discovering them down in Machu Picchu. I was thinking that perhaps we could conduct a little experiment."

I took a sip and felt the warmth of the schnapps spread deep inside.

As her man, Armond, took care of finishing dinner, we sat closely together on the chaise.

"If I read the ancient texts correctly," I went on, “There are special powers bestowed upon the person who rightfully wears the jewel. I think the power can be shared so long at the others remain in physical contact.”

She looked at me quizzically and I was sure that my words sounded far-fetched to most anyone.

Let's try an experiment," I suggested as I felt Mysti lean up closer to me, her darks eyes full of curiosity. "Since you are the one to possess the jewel, let’s think of a time and a place and a situation that you would like to visit. If we both want to be there we can test the power to see if it works. What do you say?”

She nodded and thought for a moment, and then her face brightened.

“What if,” she began slowly, “What if I were a lady in the middle ages and you were my lover who has come to visit me in the middle of the night?”

“A sort of Guenivere and Lancelot thing? That might be fun,” I replied, smiling and taking her hands in mine. “Remember we must remain in complete contact for it to work.”

She smiled and shifted her body very close to mine, pressing her supple curves up against me. “I don’t think there will be much problem with that,” she said, her voice soft and seductive.

Our arms slipped about each other and we held on fast.

“All right, let’s think middles ages,” I said slowly trying to set the scene. “A castle, a crackling fireside, a lovely lady, her lover slipping in through a hidden passage …”

The jewel began to glow and I felt a warm tingling sensation surge up from deep within my body. I looked into her dark eyes and caught a glimpse of excitement and yearning, as the setting around us began to slowly spin and fade from view …
