I have waited so long for this moment.

Now, you lie before me on a stone slab, weeping in the glow of a roaring fire.

My knife is poised, I lower it, I draw the silver blade slowly across your moist skin and slice into your veins.

My body quivers with excitement as the warm crimson fluid trickles into a sparkling crystal vessel. 

I am ready.

Blue Dolcelatte cheese, warm focaccia bread and Molino di Grace Chianti Classico 2004.  Have I died and gone to heaven?

    Sorry, Keith. You can no longer trick me with a surprise ending. The second I read your title, I was ready!

    Fun tale, Keith. Somehow it wouldn’t have the same ring to it with plastic-wrapped cheese slices, day-old sliced bread and cask red in front of a 3-bar heater. 😉

    I started off quivering and ended up salivating! Nice one, Keith.
