Chapter 7

Aleena

I awoke sore.

There was a time when I’d woken in this state before, but the memories hadn’t been anything like this. That time, I’d been flooded with shame and misery and regret.

This time?

There was just…wistfulness.

Last night had been a fantasy. A dream. Something that wasn’t likely to ever happen again and I knew it, but damn if I wouldn’t relish those memories, even if I didn’t wonder about the cause behind them.

His nightmare.

I couldn’t help but recall the scars I’d seen on Dominic and wonder if the nightmare from last night lay behind whatever had caused those marks on his body. Something had marked him, and not just physically.

I can’t claim any great insight, other than instinct, but I’d be willing to bet everything I had that I was right.

Last night, he’d been like a different man, one chased by demons. I could see the echoes of those demons on me even now. The mirror showed the evidence as I dressed, revealing what I hadn’t seen in my haste to hide myself in the covers last night.

The hickey on my neck was only one mark.

My hips bore the marks of his hands. My breath catching, I stared at myself, my breath hitching as I recalled how it had felt, to have him driving into me, his breath ragged in my ear.

“Stop it,” I told myself. “Just stop.”

Averting my gaze, I tugged on a pair of jeans—nice and casual. It was the weekend, after all. I topped the jeans with a pretty blouse and a scarf, hiding the mark on my neck.

I took a little time to deal with my hair and then I brushed on some make-up and glanced at the clock. I’d had four hours of sleep.

Not a lot, but I couldn’t lay in bed when I had work to do.
