  I spent the rest of the night tossing and turning, worrying about Gertie and finding Marco. My dreams took me to my first kiss with Marco and the incredible heat that engulfed my body then disappeared as quickly as it had appeared. My dream transformed from the dark night and fireworks to the dusty barn where Caiyan first showed me what sex was all aboot. The incredible heat surged through my body, then came the moment when he took me over the edge and I exploded.

  I woke suddenly, drenched in sweat. Exasperated. How can Caiyan have that effect on me even in my dreams? I looked at the clock: 4:30 a.m. Geesh! My hormones were overloading my brain. I took a hot shower and contemplated the events that had taken place since I met Marco. I hoped he would remember me from the wedding. Almost ten years had passed since he had given me my first kiss.
