#LesFicFri "PREFER"

“You were here when—when I—when it happened?”

“When you came, yes, it was very energetic.”

“Came? Is that the word for it?”

“Paroxysmed, orgasmed, climaxed.”

Rachel was a student of literature, and no doubt had been taught Latin and Ancient Greek. She enjoyed words and appeared to be contemplating the choices available.

She giggled. “To convulse, or to get excited, or—” she hesitated, “—to reach the highest point, I think. The first is accurate but does not communicate the pleasure, the second does not express the rising emotion however the third is a good match. Which do you prefer?”

“Come is simplest.”

Rachel nodded and unconsciously scratched her left breast, scraping her nails across her still firm nipple. She seemed to have forgotten her initial embarrassment.

#LesFicFri "NAME"

“You are not ugly, miss.”

“Don’t,” said Veronica harshly, then was instantly remorseful at the pain that crossed her maid’s face. “Don’t call me ‘miss’ when we are alone, when we are being like lovers.”

“What should I call you then?”

“Call me by my name.”

Polly hesitated as if the years of conditioning prevented her from uttering her mistress’s name. “Veronica?”

“No, that feels wrong, it’s too formal. It sounds like my mother or father. I need a nickname. I’ve never had one. Choose one for me.”

Polly pulled a face. “Von? Voni? Roni?”

Veronica laughed. “It makes me sound like a Prussian or just a man.” Though that might be interesting.

“Nika?”

“Yes! I will be Nika for you.”
