Chapter 12: Reoccurring Dreams

Minutes turned into hours. The boys had been off causing mischief for most of the night. As dawn was starting to approach, they headed back home; curious as to where David and Anwyn had gotten off too. David and Anwyn spent most of the remaining night in each other's arms; neither wanting to move their body away from the other. Randomly talking about what ever conversation came up; the peace and quiet of the cave was soon broken by the boys; returning from their nightly games. "Well, the silence was too good to last. We should at least let them know we're here. Besides, we should probably get dressed before your brother's get dinner and a show". David just smiled. Anwyn wiggled her way out of David's arms and got up, reaching for her clothes. Just has her feet touched the ground, David reached around her waist, pulling her back on the bed. Flipping on top of her, David slammed his lips back onto hers.

"I meant every word I said. I am in love with you and I do want you to be my mate". Anwyn gazed in his blue eyes…those still eerily familiar blue eyes. Every time Anwyn stared into them, a feeling of familiarization came over her. She always had the feeling that she met David before, along before she encountered him on the pier. Never really being able to figure it out, Anwyn did her best to push the notion out of her mind. Even still…every once in a while the thoughts invaded her mind.

"I meant every word I said. I'm in love with you too and yes, I will be your mate. I want to be your mate! We really need to get dressed though. I'm not about to entertain the boys too"! All David could do was laugh. Getting off the bed, David grabbed Anwyn's clothes and flung them on the bed for her. After getting dressed, David grabbed Anwyn's hand and led her back out to the opening of the cave where the boys were lounging around.

"So…..what have you two been up to while we were gone?" Dwayne asked staring at Anwyn, whose hair was obviously messed up a bit. All Anwyn could do was smile. No sense in coming up with a lie. It was pretty obvious what they were up to.

"You guys got dinner…I got the show", was all she said. David just smiled and shook his head. The boys didn't know quite how to respond to that other than awkwardly walking away. Anwyn just laughed on the inside. As the sun began to once again pierce the cave, the boys said goodnight as they headed back to the rafters.

"David, you coming?" Paul asked as he rounded the corner. David turned and looked at Anwyn.

"You're staying with me, right"?

"Of course". Grabbing her hand, David led Anwyn back to his room.

"Nope!" David shouted in response. Paul just flashed a coy smile before disappearing with the rest to the back part of the cave. Anwyn and David settled back into his room.

"I wish I had brought something to change into. This is way too much clothes to sleep in".

"Clothes? Baby…you don't need clothes". David grabbed Anwyn and pulled her to the bed. One by one, he began to remove piece after piece of her clothing until she was down to her panties. Leaning in, David gently pushed her down on the bed. Striping down to his shirt and pants, David climbed on top of her. "You don't need clothes here", was all David said as he leaned in, crashing his lips down on hers. Moving his hand up and down her almost naked body, David caressed every curve.

"If I don't need clothes, then you're terribly overdressed", Anwyn responded as she tugged at his pants, signaling for him to remove them. Sitting up, David removed his shirt and flung it to the floor. With another quick motion, David's pants were falling to the floor. Grabbing David, Anwyn pressed his body back down on hers. Reaching down, Anwyn started caressing David's shaft. With every gentle graze, David started to get harder and harder. Moaning with every stroke, Anwyn quickly got David to the point of release. Seeing he was on the edge, Anwyn slipped her panties off and jumped on top of David, slamming down on top of his shaft, allowing his hardened cock to slip inside her. As David felt the smoothness of her inside encasing his shaft, he grabbed Anwyn's hips and started moving her up and down. As David's shaft rubbed against Anwyn's clit, it sent her over the edge just as David spilled his seed once again. After a wave of pleasure took them both, Anwyn laid down on top of David. Leaning her head up, Anwyn kissed David on the cheek. "You were right…we don't need clothes". Slipping off David's chest and onto the side, David flipped around; placing his arms around Anwyn and pressing her body into his. Pulling the blankets over their naked intertwined bodies, sleep soon found both of them.

Walking in the woods, Anwyn made her way to the lake. The sun was up; brightening the sky has it radiated throughout the sky. Making her way to the edge of the water, Anwyn reached down for a stone to skip. As she did, Anwyn noticed that her shadow started disappearing. Looking up, the sun was being covered by dark clouds.

"Anwyn…." Anwyn whipped around. Scanning the area, Anwyn couldn't see anybody around.

"Hello"?

"Anwyn…", the voice said again.

"Who are you? What do you want?" As Anwyn continued to look around for the source of the voice, two shadows started manifesting in front of her. As black as night, the only thing that stood out on the dark figures were their red eyes.

"Oh you know who we are avatar", the shadows said with their voices in sync with each other's. "We've met once before…..a long time ago". Anwyn stared at the dark entities.

"You're wrong. I've never met either one of you before".

"Your memory is not quit what it used to be, is it? We are the reason why you are here avatar. In a way, we created you".

"What are you talking about"?

"You really don't remember, do you? Centuries ago when we escaped to the human world, we poisoned the hearts of men everywhere. It was beautiful. They carried out our work of death and destruction. War and pain spread like a virus; delivering death to every village they went to….including yours, avatar".

"What are you talking about? I'm not from any village. I'm a spirit, just like both of you".

"Oh dear child, you really don't know who you are, do you? You're no spirit. You're a human Anwyn, gifted with immortality and powers beyond any realm; by the very spirits that now reside within you. As payment though, they blocked your mind; striping you of all your memories from your past".

"You're lying".

"Are we? Anwyn stopped to think. She always wondered why she never had any memory of her past. When she looked in the mirror, Anwyn saw a human body. Why did she look human when the rest of the spirits did not? Anwyn always knew she was different, even with her "own kind" but never knew why. Anwyn dismissed the very idea. "No way in hell they're telling the truth. They are notorious deceivers and liars. They're just trying to throw me off my game". As the light began to fade, so did the spirits….

"Take heed Anwyn…..the darkness is coming and there's nothing you can do to stop us".

With that, both spirits faded away, leaving Anwyn alone by the lake. Waking from her nightmare, Anwyn shot up out of bed. Gasping for air, she looked around. Being jolted after Anwyn jumped up, David woke up and looked at her, "What's wrong"?

"Nothing", she said, as she lay back down.

"Nothing? You just wake up violently all the time….for "nothing". David reached out and placed his arms around Anwyn, reassuring her that everything was ok.

"I had a nightmare. Two dark spirits came to me".

"Dark spirits, uh? What did they say"?

"Nothing….well, just that…. the darkness is coming".

"It was just a nightmare Anwyn. Everything is fine".

"They also said that I'm not really a spirit. They said I was really a human that got turned into a spirit".

"Ok, now I know it was just a dream. Anwyn everything is fine. It was just a weird nightmare. Forget about it. You're safe. Now let's go back to sleep". David nestled into Anwyn's body and started to fall back asleep. Anwyn laid there wide awake. She was shaken up over the nightmare. Eventually sleep did find Anwyn again and she drifted off into slumber, lying in David's arms.
