“You asked me earlier where I’m staying.” He pulled me by the hand until I was standing flush against him.
“I did,” I said. I knew what he was getting at and I knew that I was going to say yes. It didn’t matter that I’d never had a one-night stand. Something about this man was addictive. I needed more of his touch.

The Dragon's Treasured Mate

I managed to sleep last night, but my dreams were filled with strange visions that wouldn’t leave my mind when I woke. 


Distracting myself with my phone and tv did nothing, so I decided to stop fighting it. I was sitting on my couch in my pajamas, nursing a cup of coffee and trying to make sense of what the dreams meant. 


I remembered it vividly. The town had been covered in a deep, dark fog that made it difficult to move or breathe. It looked like the smoke that billowed off of burning plastic, but had no scent to it. Everyone I knew was stuck in it and unable to escape. 


I’d been unaffected, but unable to help anyone. I ran to my dad and found him deliriously speaking in tongues. I tried everything I could think of to snap him out of it, but he just kept talking in a low, droning voice with that fog coiling like serpents around his legs.
