- Sir -

I did not sleep, I was to excited. Watching her chest rise up while air filled her lungs, hearing her breathe only fueled my exhilaration. I did not close the blinds and the windows were wide open, letting the silver light of the moon fill the room. It made her pale skin look like the soft snow covering the mountains in the winter.  Reluctantly I left her in the light, prepared my truck and got dressed. Cameo pants, an olive green shirt and black combat boots.  She would surely enjoy this as much as I would. Finally, after all this time had passed, after all the deception, the planning, the disappointment the fantasy I span up as a bedtime story when she could not sleep would be reality.


- Prey -

He woke me up ungently in the middle of the night. The moon shone so bright through the window, for  a few seconds it blinded me.

"Get up. Get dressed and follow me." He threw some clothes on the bed, a white shirt and a jeans. Dazed from the rude interruprion of my recovery, being still affected from all the pain I had endured, I could not think straight, so I just got up and did as he told me. Got in his truck, he drove somewhere into the mountains.

In the valley before us layed the ruins of what used to be a village, but not that far off in the distance I saw lights moving. Cars. There where even some houses. Maybe I could get help there?

Still, two beasts fought within me for dominion. One, fueled by lust, by repressed longing for this one man, the one man that made me feel whole. The other driven by fear and reason, the want to get back to my family and friends. Neither of them were holding back, and right now, with the literal rollercoaster of emotions and experiences I rode to this point, I just wanted to get away and be at peace.

He looked at me. "Do you still want to get away? This is your one and only chance of escape."

We both got out of the car and I mustered him for any sign of lies or deceit. The clothes he wore wrapped tightly around his upper body and I see his muscles moving when he closed the door. In this attire, he did not seem deceitfull, he seemed ready. Prepared.

Like a primal beast that snuck up towards his prey, every muscle tensed up, ready to jump.
