An unexpected wrinkle.

Jonathan stared at Vanessa adoringly as she spoke. "I'll never forget that." He was sad that she soon would, but glad to know it would happen again. After a few minutes of catching their breath, the look of satisfaction and affection faded from her face. She scrunched up her nose adorably. "Who are you?"

Jonathan surprised himself. "I'm Jonathan Drake, and I love you." Why did he say that? He took stock of himself. He was Jonathan Drake, born with a special ability that he used to further his interests and those of his beloved, Vanessa. Wait, his beloved?

He looked at her and realized he couldn't deny it. She was his everything. He would die for her gladly. Meanwhile, she was searching his face with puzzlement.

"You... love me? How is that possible? We just met." She sat up suddenly. "We're naked. We're naked in bed together. How did this happen?"

He put his hands on her shoulders and rubbed them soothingly. "Shh, it's alright. You don't need to worry, you'll be ok again soon enough." God, he loved this woman.

Why did he love her? He remembered just an hour ago being skeptical and judgmental about Vanessa. Now he couldn't imagine! He thought through their conversation and his mind lit upon something. She had said that her family had abilities that manifested in sexual encounters - this might be that exact thing! He wanted to ask her but she would obviously have no idea what he was talking about.

He thought about putting her memories back so that they could figure it out, but shuddered at the thought. This was the Vanessa he'd fallen in love with. This beautiful, naive, pure creature before him. To add or remove anything from her would be like vandalizing a great work of art. She was absolutely perfect the way she is and he swore to himself that he would never change her again.

Meanwhile, she had stood up. She performed a full body stretch and he admired her nude body. Her ass was out of this world! Jonathan was the luckiest man alive to have this amazing woman with him. She turned around and gasped.

"Who the hell are you?"
