“I just had the most amazing dream” Lila smiled as she sleepily rolled over just enough to see the first beams of light filtering through her bedroom window. Not wanting to get up and break the warmth of her dream about Ryder Slade coming back into her life, she lingered with eyes closed. “If only it wasn’t just a dream” she sighed as her alarm pierced the silence.“Lila, Is it time to get up?” came a throaty sleepy voice from behind her... more“I just had the most amazing dream” Lila smiled as she sleepily rolled over just enough to see the first beams of light filtering through her bedroom window. Not wanting to get up and break the warmth of her dream about Ryder Slade coming back into her life, she lingered with eyes closed. “If only it wasn’t just a dream” she sighed as her alarm pierced the silence.“Lila, Is it time to get up?” came a throaty sleepy voice from behind her.Lila, suddenly grounded by his voice, realized that this was no dream; Ryder was here. Here in her bed clad only in boxer briefs close enough to touch. Close enough to kiss, to caress, to have and to hold.Lila shook herself awake to make sure she wasn’t still dreaming. This happened most days, Lila was still not used to Ryder being there, not yet accustomed to a feeling that felt too good to be true.Ryder reached over and pulled Lila into him “is it time to get up?”Lila buried her face in his neck deeply inhaling his scent. “Mmmmmm, I wish we could stay here all day” she murmured.“Me too, love” Ryder said softly into her ear, “but we both have busy days today.”“Dream crusher!” Lila joked.Reluctantly extricating herself from his embrace Lila simply said “Coffee?”“After you, it’s the next best thing” Ryder chuckled “the elixir of life.”Lila laughed as she rose from the bed and padded into the kitchen. The dream had become her reality. less
