Ayden stirred in her sleep. She felt Connor lay down next to her. He said something but she didn't quite hear him, but she felt his hand on her chest. She smiled sleepily and put her hand on top of his Ayden didn't open her eyes. "Good morning, my love."
Sleepily rolled over on her side pulling Connor's arm around her. Her back against him and smiled. She loved feeling him next to her. He was safe and warm and comforting. Ayden never wanted to leave his embrace.
"My dreams were like they were before."
Ayden sighed. "That man, killing him, I think that was the reason."
Ayden rolled over to look up at Connor and smiled. "Everyone was safe again. But when I stopped doing that for you. They went away all together."
She frowned, it was a hard thing to say. "But when they came back, they were different. Something was missing. The only things the two have in common is a sacrifice. The first of men, the second of myself."
She sat up on her elbows and kissed Connor. "I don't want to kill to feel safe, but these dreams they need to stop. I can't fear sleeping."
Ayden feel back against the pillow. "There has to be something I can do that will make them go away."
Her voice was desperate, Ayden didn't particularly like that emotion, but it's how she felt, and she wasn't going to hide it from Connor, the man she was going to marry and probably sooner rather than later.
