At some point during the week, I noticed that the essence of Amanda and Tanner's sex had shifted. At first, they'd been operating on pure instinct and reflex. But as the days progressed, they began to make love in the true sense. Their sex was still passionate, but now it was also tender and soft. They caressed each other more and spent more time watching each other's faces rather than their bodies. It was almost sweet, if not for the fact that Tanner was barely an adult. And the fact that Amanda was married to me.

I suspect this essence-shift was a result of what happened between their sex sessions....
