Chapter 17 - recurrent dreams

By the time Ryan came up, he found already asleep. She slept curled on the bed, occupying just one portion of the bed, leaving the other larger part extensively unused. Sitting on his bed, he felt a headache beginning to form. The Victorians were becoming stronger. The presence of a healer had set them on a higher pedestal and now they wanted more. They wanted war. This issues really came at a bad time and he knew that he had to put his priorities right. They could not just keep on letting the Victorians push them around. They had to make a statement of power.

Reducing his clothes to his briefs, he climbed onto the bed and held her in his arms. She was deep asleep, as shown by her soft snores. She turned and hugged him back tightly. This did make him feel important. Like she could actually depend on him. On the other hand, he was surer than ever before that she was the savior, they had all been waiting for. As fate had it, she was meant to be there with them, in this pack. They would just have brave whatever the cost that came with having a savior around. Settling down he joined her to sleep.

She was back in that room, she realized she was not alone anymore, there was someone beside her. whispering her name slowly, faintly. Through the dark, she could feel her talking to her. and then slowly, someone else came up, a man. "Honey, you know that Leila will never be safe with us. The only way for her to survive is if she forgets she is a wolf. We should make sure to clear her mind, so that she can grow well and safely." The woman said. I know love, we will keep her safe. I think we should also try and have her powers sealed because otherwise, they will bring her trouble in the near future. The main said in a whisper.

Suddenly, she found herself seated right outside her step mothers house, as a little baby, crying out. The couple had been childless for long and on seeing a young baby, they picked her up. She smiled at them. Then there was blood, lots of it like a river flowing, beyond the river, stood a man, dressed in scarlet clothes holding a sword. His face was obscured by something like mist. He then turned to look at her. she saw his eyes. They were blazing like torches of fire. Full of evil. He then raised the hand with the sword and pointed it towards her.

Ryan felt it when she started squirming. Then she started moving as though escaping through something. It was at that point that she stood and sat upright. Breathing deeply and fast. Her eyes glazed as though she was still dreaming. Holding her still close to his chest, he could feel as her heart rate slowed down. She was downright trembling.

"It's okay love, take a deep breath it's only a dream, you are safe." Ryan said as he kept rubbing her back. Taking a deep breath, she finally stopped trembling but she was shaken. What the hell had been that. She had been having the same recurrent dream, but now, there was a change. And the change was scary. Who were those people in her dreams? Were they just dreams, or was there something more to it?

It felt awfully real. The feeling of a bad premonition in her heart on the other hand kept increasing. It was almost as though there was something that was being planned, way bigger than she had ever known. Babe, there is something I need to tell you. I have been having the same recurrent dream for some time. It's a dream of a younger me. Tonight, it was different. And with it came an extreme sense of fear. Like something bad is about to happen. I know it sounds weird. I do not even understand this myself."

"What, it's not weird and I'm glad you trust me enough to talk to me. To be honest, my parents just told me that things are not okay around here. Packs around the world are making moves. Some are moving, but that is not the only scary thing, our adjacent enemies are now provoking us openly because they actually have a healer. A battle is inevitable." Ryan said he hugged her closer and kissed her head.

"Do you think this could be the reason that I keep having a bad premonition of something to happen." Leila asked. "I don't know love, maybe it is. What do you say to staying around here for longer?" Ryan said as he pulled himself from her and dropped a peck on her lips, then hugged her again. Taking a deep breath, Leila sagged against him." What about work Ryan, you know I just started working."

"Ha-ha come on, don't tell me you are worried about work when you are with me." Ryan said as he turned her and pressed her onto the bed, with him, laying on top of her. he could feel it when her breath increased in tempo. Her heartbeat racing. The air around them was beginning to get heated. She could feel herself growing aroused as he held her, the fear and disorientation that had been on her eyes now replaced with immense excitement.

He traced his finger up her calf, then jumped to her belly. Placing his palm just above her abdomen, he could feel her heat increasing. "Leila, I really want you, more than anything else." His breath coming out short breathy gasps. "I want to kiss you, sniff you as I enjoy your unique scent. Then I want to cuddle you and make love to you over and over." He said as he moved his lips to rest on her abdomen, kissing her through the thin fabric.
