Fuck, that’d been a revelation.

My cock was having problems with the tightness of my pants.

A woman sleeping was so vulnerable...

I took another soft step closer.

A slow, careful step to make sure the timber floor stayed silent.

I scanned for the knife, but only a Ruger lay on her table...it said she was afraid of someone coming in here, while she slept. It said she was dangerous.

Like me.

Another step and I stood at the very foot of the bed thinking about her moves at the mini-mart.

I should take that gun and the knife. Disarm her.

Or...

If I fucked her, she might do as I wanted.

I shook my head.

Since when was that a valid interrogation method? This wasn’t some black site in some forgotten country. Next, I’d be waterboarding her and tying her hands to the ceiling while he whipped her.

Those pretty underthings falling away in tatters...

The surge to my groin made my face twist.

Fuck, fuck, fuck.I wrenched myself from my course and backtracked to the living room.

I should get out of here.

Just text her and tell her about myself—suggest a meeting. Preferably somewhere public. The sensibleness of that derailed the thoughts of sex.

Or not.

Or...not.

The cane chair from the living room was in my hand, and I brought it to the now wide-open bedroom door and quietly arranged its position.

Then I sat.

If she woke and shot me, so be it. I deserved it. I needed to be good.

Eyelids at half-mast, mind disengaged, I watched her sleep.

The red in me washed and waned like a tide at a beach.Skeletons picked clean by gulls on a half-moon night...

I shook away that horror. Where? When? I couldn’t recall. Iraq had held worse. Burning bodies...burning tanks.

Rocked by violent nightmares, I wandered into an unconscious state.

The growl of the half-awakened Nightmare King barely stirred the higher brain function.

The quiet fecundity of a female. She reeked of it. Sensual bitch. A place for cock and semen.

If I could have moved Val’s limbs, I would have, at the least, unzipped his pants and masturbated to the sight of her. Not yet though, soon.
