Beauty And Her Obsessors

Chapter 43: Another strange dream

Freya POV

When I fell asleep my mind peacefully went into a deep slumber. The serene bright sun I dreamed of vanished in thin air. My bright dreams faded into darkness now forming into something strange.

In my dream I opened my eyes to see the same old cave I have seen many times before. It was that "recurring dream".  From the moment I met Lucas. With his green hair, pointy ears and those recognizable silver eyes.

I definitely knew that it was HIM, he was that orc. That dream might have been a memory from the past. I still don't know if it was real or not. I thought it was my dream.

Yet I wondered to this day, how was I connected to him? The reason for him kidnapping me for a month? And most importantly how the hell can he read my mind?! From him almost knowing everything about me from the little things I do and my preferences. 

At first meeting Lucas knowing everything about me was sure creepy. Back then I thought of him as a crazy. I didn't know anything about him but he knew everything about me. That's why my plans to escape had always failed.

Was it because he was observant during those few months. He must have, Lucas is really smart.

But now in my dreams as I looked around in the same old cave. The memories flashing right before me had made me realize the whole meaning behind his reason. These flashing memories I see were his... Lucas's very own memories.

Yet who was that person from that last dream? Who was she? Who was Lucas's wife from the past?

I thought it was me at first.. but that would be impossible.. It couldn't be me, maybe I just look a lot like Lucas's wife.

(IN DREAM) In front of me, I immediately saw Lucas coming out of one of the cave doors inside. I stood up running to hide under the stone table that had draped fur coverings. Enough that he wouldn't spot me in an instant.

But It was strange. For a strong person like him I find it odd that he was sweating in such a cold cave. His cheeks and ears were all red while his body had unusual red scratch marks and bites. The corner of his bottom lip was bleeding while he heavily panted for breath.

Soon that's when I realized what might have happened to him. Seeing his tired body and the obvious bite mark on his bottom lips, he might have done the deed. The room he came out of might be the room where his wife was at. It might be their bedroom where they had finished mating not too long ago.

I couldn't help but blush as now I was a pervert! I was trespassing in their home and snooping in Lucas's memory like I was a ghost! I wanted out of this but I couldn't get out of this blasting dream! It was like I had to see everything.

I observed Lucas and saw that he was slightly older in this dream. He still had scars all around his body but not one scar visible. That burnt scar on his left neck from the lightning I struck not too long ago confirms it.

For a couple of minutes, I hid watching Lucas tidy things up in the cave then went smashing plants together in a mortar and pestle. Discovering that he knew of medicine and alchemy with the strange potions glimmering.

As I watched him create different colors of concoction then secretly hiding them away. My back ached from hiding under a goddamn table!

"Dammit! I should have picked a better hiding place." I thought.

(TIME PASSED)

I was still hiding under the table that Lucas had finally finished assembling. He left the room, entering another through a cave-like door, and I quickly scurried to a new hiding spot, concealing myself from his line of sight. Peering from my location, I caught sight of a flickering flame.
