  Lilith by Karin Kallmaker, first story.
  
  Just, wow. Miss Karin can WRITE😍 The way she perfectly described longing, wanting to belong, needing touch, from a sapphic POV, was authentic and real.
  
  The story is about succubus who haunts people, and messes with their head. But, she is not a "normal" succubus, she loves girls.
  
  
  "I wanted the smile of a woman for me, I could no longer bear the smiles of women through the filter of men’s eyes."
  
  She was forced to haunt men just to experience fantasies and dreams that centered around girls. Just to feel the touch of a woman😩
  
  "King or peasant, when it came to fantasy, they were much the same. A pillowed bower or a warm, rustling haystack, the setting didn’t matter to me. It was the women in their minds that I sought."
  
  The way she desperately sought out any kind of love she could get, even though she could only do it through dreams of other people and sex, was so fucking sad.
  
  "All I have wanted in the long, lonely night was to lose myself in fantasies of women. I hoped, in vain, that doing so might ease the emptiness in my existence."
  
  UGHH, I KNOW👹👹
  
  She affected me this much because I relate HARD.
  
  "I found lesbians to haunt, don’t get me wrong. But I always had to force myself to leave or they would get addicted. I wasn’t real to them and that hurt in a way that did not bother me with men."
  
  
  "From the depths of her love of women rose twining lights of need and fulfillment, around and around, swirling like lovers in a soul dance."
  
  I'm going to be thinking about this for a looonngg time, I know👨🏽‍🦼

  I LOVED this book! The stories were all well written and interesting. I'm not a fan of most anthologies. This one was an exception. I'm retaining this book for my must-read-again pile.
