Summary: Elizabeth dreams of falling into one man's arms, but wakens in another's...


That night, she dreamt of falling… hurtling through space, naught but empty air 'twixt herself and watery oblivion…

Then, strong arms, catching her, snatching her from Death's clutches. Pulling her against a lean, tanned chest, cradling her close.

"Hold on!"

And then she was soaring, flying, rising above death and danger. She clung to her saviour, trusting him, knowing she was safe in his arms.

"It's all right, luv. I won't let you fall…"

She woke to the light of a dying fire— naked, sore, sand clinging to unaccustomed places.

Jack…?

Arms embraced her…

But they were only her husband's.
