I WAS ACCUSTOMED TO MY BODY BEING HYDRATED

I was accustomed to my body being constantly hydrated with the finest essential oils, jojaba, lavender milk, honey extract and royal jelly. This I had taken to be the state of things. Natural. Now here I was in the desert all dried out and scaly, with nothing but cactus and tumbleweeds for company. I stroked the spines of the cactus with my scaly, unhydrated, jojoba-less finger. It sent an erotic tingle straight through my body. My toes buzzed. My spine was at attention.
