He knelt over me and kissed my lips before
filling my mouth with the blood from his bite.
I smiled with the stain of crimson red covering
blush pink skin and teeth once shown pearly white.

The bleeding had begun and I knew all the rules,
nothing I did not know about this rite.
He pulled my blouse apart, ripped it off with both hands,
I knew this would be a blood-letting night.

I made a quick puncture with my fingernails, then
I sucked his neck 'til I tasted the flow,
A mark such as this would surely give us away
and tell the tale we did not want them to know.

He then took the fork, each tine sharp enough to
pierce the skin leaving scratches upon my breast.
I scratched deep near his heart, enough to draw blood,
and I licked up the bleed that covered his chest.

Slowly, he undid my snap and zipper
removing my jeans and the thong together.
Then, I removed his pants layer by layer,
and reached for the strap, a razor of leather.

I struck swiftly at his back and buttocks,
leaving large welts of blood running down his spine.
He returned the favor and I moaned deeply,
The stain upon the sheets would surely be mine.

He opened my legs, revealed the musky smell
of my menses, the reason he choose to start
this ritual with both a kiss and a bite.
He buried his face with my legs held apart.

The sweet taste of blood created his frenzy,
Both covered in blood and now lusting for more.
The outcome of unusual desires
would surely give us pleasure, as heretofore.

His face close to mine, I could smell the blood,
strangely erotic; he entered upon me.
We found our rhythm, he thrusted deep.
I quickly found myself in my ecstasy.

He finished inside of me, breathing hard,
I held him fast between my quivering thighs.
The only sound heard between us were
the gasping of our breath and contented sighs.

This is our ritual, the rite we chose,
performed with the cyclic movement of the moon.
My time was in sync with lunar flow.
This, the blood coupling, our most divine commune.
