Night Terrors

Aislyn woke in the night with tears streaming down her cheeks. Yet another nightmare of sexual transgressions left her crying in the night. Instead to recalling horrible images of the past, her subconscious was creating new terrors. The first dream was the maintenance man in her condo and Riley had been the knight riding in on his white jag to save her. Tonight's dream was a female security guard at the mall where she was buying nail polish.

Aislyn curled under the down comforter, but couldn't get warm. She touched the sheets where Riley had been the day before. She'd been crying for him in her dream, wanting to be comforted by his tender presence. Now she was overcome by fear of what the dreams portented; what demons had been set loose in her fragile psyche.
