Desire had taken many mortal lovers. Both man an woman. But this woman was beyond beautiful. Her spirit was like fire. Her sweetness beyond messure. The loveliness of a saint but the will of a warrior. This is what had made her captivating to Desire when it had seen her. So it followed her for a while before the woman slept. Dream knew its younger sibling had something in mind when it meddled in the affairs of his dreamers. They both stood over this girl. A pale wrath of a Man tall dressed almost too elegantly. And an androgonous beauty of a figure that slowly took the form of the man this woman most wish for. Dream shook his mane of nghtmare black hair and dissapeared. Alone the woman awoke scrambling back. She barily remembered the dream but it had been strange.
Pushing herself up off the ground her shimmering cobalt blue hair fell around her like a living cloak. those dark brown eyes serched the darkness for something she knew was there. She headed towards the village she was from knowing the stories of these woods. of the lord it had enchanted before her as she ran. She bumped into a form looking up as she fell backwards. Demon was the first thought to come into her mind as she scrambled to the side and away. Desire simply laughed. It followed her looking after that blue clad form. With the swiftness of heartbeat when its racing from lovers touch the mans form was before the woman. One look into those depthless orbs and she smile. There had been nothing to fear after all it seemed.
He took her hand kissing it as she blushed. Her eyes couldnt seem to break the gaze.
"I've waited for you." she said almost in a trance.
"I know. All wait for me. " Desire said though not unkindly.
This was the effect desire seemed to have on mortals. She looked at him quizzically. He laughed so see such puzzlement on her pretty face. Flawed by one thing though it was. Upon her brow. over her left eye was a scar. Perhaps she had fought when the need was strong. Desire admired that somewhat. It amused it to think there were mortals out there who did not just let things come to them.
"I'm a stranger here." a quick smile filled with warmth. "Perhaps you can show me where i can procure a horse and provisions. "
"Here."
She could not control the blush that rose to her cheeks once more. Leading him to a barn where her father kept horses she opend the stall. A large bay charger snorted pawing the ground with his hoof. His strong hand closed the stall. He looked into her eyes and she smiled. Oh how shed waited for him. He had come to her now. The stars sang for her as this mortal and Desire lay together. What would happen as the sunrose never mattered to her.
