Excerpt: The moon was nearly overhead and the shadows on her body painted her a stark black and white, even bleeding her eyes free of color.

"I don't understand why you're so embarrassed. It's not like you've never seen a naked woman," Yuuko said, standing with her hands on her hips and watching as a blush spread over Clow's face. It was pretty magnificent for a blush, especially considering his complexion. In the night he was so white that he glowed, a skintone courtesy of his English father. Right now, the flush had completely overtaken his cheeks and spread down his neck as well. Yuuko would have been amused, had they not been in a bit of a hurry.

"It's just..." Clow stammered. Yuuko pointed up at the sky. The moon was nearly overhead and the shadows on her body painted her a stark black and white, even bleeding her eyes free of color. Her smirk spread in the same way his blush had, though it was much scarier. Her teeth were white and perfect.

"We're going to miss it," Yuuko said, letting her black dress slide to the grass. After a moment, Clow began pulling at his robes.

"Too slow, too slow!" Yuuko yelled. She began to dance around the clearing, her hair wild. She stomped her feet and sang in Armaic and he stopped dead to watch the faerie skip, the ritual forgotten, the spell cracking to pieces. There was always next full moon, after all.
