Danielle leaned in, I could feel her breath, I closed my eyes. A surge of tension hit me, I was being pulled away from her. She called for me, but it was silent. Bret swung at her, she crumpled to her side, he was kicking her. I was stuck in my vortex of drifts.

My dream continued the one I'd been having for the past couple of nights. I ran, gasping for breath, through the familiar woods from a dark figure behind me. The faster I tried to run, the slower I seemed to go, until it was like I was running in place. I knew I needed to run. I was terrified of what the figure would do when he caught me. "Mara Leigh," a deep, smooth voice called. It was almost hypnotic. That was new. The figure had never spoke before now. I ran as fast as I could go, eyes searching the forest floor for a big stick or something that I could use to defend myself. "Mara Leigh!" the voice came again, this time more insistent. The forest slowly started to fade and I started to awake to someone shaking my shoulders. "Beau?" I mumbled, turning my head to the side. What's Beau doing in my room this time of night? Why is he shaking me? "Do not call me that name." My eyes flew open as I jumped at the voice from my dream. A face was right in front of mine, and just like the voice, it wasn't Beau. Before I could form a scream, a hand covered my mouth. I tried to bite it but I couldn't get my mouth to open. He's too strong. I started to use my whole body to try to get away, but he crawled on top of me, holding me down. I pulled the hidden knife out from under my pillow and slashed as hard as I could at him, but he just grabbed my wrist and squeezed it until the pain made me drop the knife. Then he grabbed both my hands in one of his and held them over my head. He held me down while I struggled. I grunted and moved and tried to kick and scream, but I only wore myself out. Exhausted, I stopped thrashing and let the tears flow freely down my cheeks. I didn't know what to do, so I just tried to prepare myself for whatever was coming.

"You don't know what I have experience in Mr. Ettore." She said in a cool voice. "I can say the same for you Ms. Addision, you have no knowledge of what I am capable of." I said with a coolness that matched hers. We were now headed towards her car at the far end of the parking lot. "Well, my assumptions of your being an asshole seemed to be spot on!" she spat. "Trust me darlin, your no walk in the damn park either." A smile played at the corner of my lips in the darkness as we reached her car. Hitting the unlock button she turned to me as she leaned against her car. "Coming from you Ettore, I take that as a compliment." I moved so that I was facing her as I placed my hand on the roof of her car before leaning in near her ear. "If you liked that lil compliment believe me when I say that I'm just getting started sweetheart" I said in a low voice. I smiled in the darkness of the parking lot listening to the melody of her heart racing at our closeness. I looked forward to such encounters with her, I found her anger quite amusing, her beauty unmatched, and before I knew it I found myself falling for her. It was the ultimate betrayal to the woman that I had loved and lost centuries ago. I had promised myself that I would never love another woman as I had loved Tiet but when Annalise walked into my life all of that began to change. Falling in love with a human woman was the last thing I would have thought myself to do but as the old saying goes "the heart wants what the heart wants" but is there more to her than meets the eye?

"Wait, I love you." He said and I immediately stopped in my tracks. I turned around and looked at him. He was sobbing. He seemed to be in so much pain and it hurt me that I was the cause of it. But, it had to be done. "No, you don't." I said and walked away.
