This is absolutely gorgeous, so alive and full of feeling. I love how you’ve made desire feel like both a physical force and something almost mythical. The whole piece pulls me right into the moment. There’s such a beautiful tension between the ache and the reverence, especially with imagery like “hips coil like an ancient serpent.” It’s intimate without ever being too much, it feels raw, but also sacred, if that makes sense. You’ve captured something so universal and made it personal. I love it like always ❤️‍🔥❤️‍🔥

this is SOOO sexy in the most magical way that only you Jennae could write. I also really feel summer energy (summer season!) pulsating through every word. Bare skin, soft lips, sunkissed, hot and bothered... all of it! Maple Syrup stirred into cacao eyes - sultry and delicious 🌊 It's funny because it makes me think of winter, the season I'm currently in... well, close to it and sexy in winter is just communicated differently lol
