Her muscles relaxed, sinking deeper into the mattress, softening beneath his in inevitable welcome.

He bent and kissed her mouth until her lips softened beneath his.

Her lips tightened, and he laughed, rubbing at them until they softened beneath his.

She softened beneath him, giving him what he demanded, which was nothing short of unconditional surrender.

It didn't matter; the floor softened beneath her, absorbing her fall like a deep pillow.

The eyes softened beneath their heavy lids, the set lips broke into a mocking smile.

Neither did her abdominal muscles soften beneath his hand.

They had nothing to sit on, not so much as a blanket to soften the iron bars beneath their feet.

He felt his rigid muscles soften like parched earth beneath drops of cool water.
