MoonLife by Sherri Ann Smith

and on. Then piece by piece the dream comes together, much like a jigsaw puzzle. Sand appeared under my feet and the ocean pieced itself together in front of me, stretching out for miles and miles. I noticed then that I was no longer wearing my P Js , and I was in a flowing wrap - around maxi skirt with a slit up the side where it wraps. On top, I had on a very elegant but tiny halter top that too wrapped around me and tied in the front. The sun is starting to set leaving the most amazing reflections on the water. Palm trees were beginning to appear, piecing themselves in around me while swaying in the light breeze.
    Down the beach I see a figure walking towards me, I instantly know it’s Sebastian. He is wearing a pair of dark linen pants rolled at the ankles and matching dark linen shirt, open all the way down. I love when he leaves his shirt open, he looks so sexy. The wind played with his hair as it lightly blows it in the warm breeze, his sexy smile growing as he walks toward me. Without him saying a word to me, he takes me up into his arms. I reached up and put my arms around his neck; it feels so sensual having him pressed up against me. I could feel all his body hard and strong . I kissed him deeply, wanting to lose myself in this dream and never wake up.
    “My l ove , I have missed you so much. Being apart from you tonight even for a few hours has seemed like torture, “he said as he kissed me again, this time letting his hands roam over my body.
    “Sebastian, it has been such a long evening without you. I’m surprised to see you here… in my dream.”
    “It took you a while to get here . C ould you not sleep , my l ove?”
    “Between being attacked and the Turn tomorrow night, I had a bit of trouble.”
    Gently pushing a strand of hair from my face and behind my ear, Sebastian said, “I wish you didn’t have to go through the Turn . If I could take the pain away I would , my l ove, in a heartbeat.” He touched my cheek and held my face towards him. He kissed me tenderly , then pulled back and looked into my eyes, “We don’t have to do this. We can wait to make love, we can wait on the Turn and just commit with the binding ceremony.”
    “No, I want to be with you FULLY. I love our life together, but it feels incomplete. I want to know what it feels like to be with you in every way. I want to make love to the man I love. I don’t want to wait any longer.”
    “You would go through your idea of hell just to be with me?”
    “Yes , Sebastian. I would do anything to be with you. I love you, more than life itself.”
    “I love you too , Sadie, more than anything in the world.” Sebastian looked down and kissed my neck. Goosebumps ran up my back and made me shiver. He moved his head back and I could see his eyes turning crimson. He kissed me again, this time going lower, kissing down my neck to my shoulder.  “You are gorgeous , my L ove . L ay with me.” Sebastian pointed to the water.
    Appearing in front of us was a large oasis in the water. It was a beautiful oversized bed floating on top of a vast, wood deck on the water. The bed was white with a gold , rod iron canopy across the top. Hanging from the rod iron were jewel tone panels of the lightest material, almost see through yet I could imagine if they were closed you would have the illusion that you were all alone suspended on the water. It looked like something you would see in a Cleopatra movie.
    He picked me up and carried me out to the floating paradise, carefully placing me on the bed. Looking at me again with those crimson eyes, he leaned down and slowly started to nibble on my ear, kissing down my cheek to my chin and then nibbling his way down my neck. His kisses slowed right above the pulse point on my neck, he paused for a moment and I hoped he might bite me. He leaned up over me and I could tell he was thinking about it, his fangs sharp and ready to cut into my neck. He dragged them down my throat, making goose bumps run instantly
