You had begun to hate waking up like this, in another strange bed in another bizarre surrounding. It had become such a regular occurrence that it seized to phase you. Your body was swaddled in the softest blanket, a gentle sea breeze caressing your face as it rolled off the lulling ocean. Brow crinkled as you blinked away the thick crust that coated your eyes as pristine crystal waves crashed against the shoreline, the gentle patter of rain in the distance sending ripples across the water. On the horizon, a billowing storm swirled, sending shocks of light across the sky.

Pulling yourself up, the cool air nipped at bare skin, blanket pooling around your waist as you sat up, leaving your naked torso exposed to the elements.

'You're awake.' the deep voice filtered over the soft sounds of the weather.

A terrified shriek vibrated across the little oasis as the physical form of Morpheus manifested himself in a cloud of black sand, his silver eyes trained darkly on you as you scrabbled to cover your bare chest. You didn't fail to notice the hungry look that sank deeply onto every edge of his face.

'Where am I?" You snapped, huddling under the pile of blankets.

'You are in the inner sanctum of the Dreaming, my heart." The deep voice whispered as he inched closer, his eyes never wavering from you.

Anger prickled underneath your skin as you forced your eyes away from him. 'Why am I here?'

'I overwhelmed you. I blame myself for this, this can....' His eyes lingered on the mark that mocked you from your arm. 'be.... intense for baser creatures. I see that now. Here we are away from everything, where we can be alone to become one.' Morpheus cooed.

Scoffing up at him, you felt a growl, only rival to his, fill your chest. 'Baser creatures... you are deluded."

The god stood tall, smouldering eyes burning down at you. "Deluded? Is it deluded to dress you in finery, give you every comfort and luxury? Love you, unlike anyone can be loved."

"Love me? You insulted and kidnapped me," You scoffed.

Silver eyes invaded your vision as his face hunched over you. "Kidnap? Is that what you think? I liberated you from that sallow pit of emptiness. You were alone. Suffering in silence just like me.''

"Was Calliope the same''? You gritted out, forcing yourself to stay still. You saw the fire erupt in his eyes and knew you had gone too far, but you couldn't help; you needed to hurt him just like he hurt you. 'I am sure she was lonely just like me; that's why you married her, and then when she hurt you, you destroyed her.'

"Listen, my love, and listen well. Those dalliances were mere bleeps, cries for affection in my dark eternity, and nothing I felt for her or any of them comes near to what I feel for you. None of them wore my mark; none of them made my heart beat fast. You are mine. As I am yours.'' Morpheus steely spoke as he stood straight, flicking his fingers and sending a command into the air.''Now we are together, that emptiness is gone, and I refuse to return to it. I will make you see that. Make you see that we belong together.''

Wide eyes took in the god as he glowered down. A sharp gasp escaped your lips as the sheets disintegrated into nothingness, leaving you bare under his gaze.

You squeaked as you attempted to cover yourself, your eyes glaring up at the untamed god; his hair was wild, features feral as they devoured your form. 'You truly are my goddess.' He hummed as his clothes disappeared, leaving his taunt, wiry nakedness exposed in the light of the moon, his thickness firmly pressed against his stomach, taunting you.

Screwing your eyes shut, you turned your head.''Morpheus!'

'It is okay to look, my love; I am yours'' His voice sounded closer now, warm breath hitting your face.
