The Broken-hearted She And The Icy He

How could a plush puppy talk? Could it have come to life or turned into some kind of spirit? That fuzzy thought flitted through Lily’s drowsy mind, but before she could make sense of it, sleep tugged her back under.

All she wanted was to do what she always did, fall asleep hugging her plush puppy.

She wrapped her arms completely around him and mumbled, half–asleep, “Puppy, let me hold you….”

Her sudden full–body hug shoved James down against the edge of the bed.

His expression darkened; the air around him turned dangerous.

Puppy… She really thought he was Jackson!

Jealousy burned through him, searing his chest like acid.

Irritated and agitated, he pulled her hands off him again. “I told you–I’m not your puppy. Quit touching me!”

This time, Lily heard him clearly.

But she was still convinced she was dreaming. After all, how could a plush dog turn into a spirit and talk?

And in dreams, she was in control. Why would she be afraid of a disobedient plush toy acting up in her dream?

Her cheeks puffed with defiance. A rebellious streak flared up, and she grabbed at his abs with both hands. “I want to touch them…”

Just grabbing his abs didn’t feel satisfying enough.

Her hands slid upward, groping at his chest, again and again.

So firm, so springy. The sensation was addictive; she couldn’t stop.

In her dream, she had already crowned herself a lawless queen. Chin lifted in arrogance, she ordered, “Puppy, take your shirt off!”

James fell silent.

She wanted to touch Jackson through his shirt, and that wasn’t enough for her? Now she

ted him to take it off?

James’s face turned dark green, then black. He clenched his jaw so hard it looked like he’d transform into a beast and tear someone limb from limb.

Lily, meanwhile, sensed none of the danger.

In her dream, she was a queen, and this was her domain, How dare the puppy disobey?

Her hands continued downward without care or precision. With a punishing grip, she grabbed him again and scolded him with a fierce, but entirely unthreatening tone, “If you don’t take it off, I’ll do it for you!”
