I made my way through the rain over the craggy, coral, reef armed with nothing but my wit and my size 4 dress. I was still wearing my black stilettos that I had spent the last few days digging in a damned good argument. When I got to the entrance of the cave I put these to the side. They would not be useful once in the cave.
I crept in through the entrance as water showered over me and hid behind a rock where I could see the dragon sulking on his perch. I knew that I would have to move fast if I was going to get what I came for. I made a note not to look in his eyes, for I knew that could mean certain death. I rounded the corner, he looked up at me, I dove for his neck and wrapped my arms tightly around him. He wrapped his scaly arms around my neck and held fast. Seconds ticked by slowly. And then things started to change. The walls of the cave started to crumble. The rain no longer poured. His grip still held, but somehow softened. I closed my eyes tighter afraid to behold what terror now consumed my surroundings. I could no longer feel the scales that had secured me to him and I wondered what was changing. The cold air that the rain had generated was now warm and I could sense a soft glow of light through the lids of my eyes.
And then I felt it; a slight, gentle kiss on my neck. I pulled away and opened my eyes, but it was not a dragon that I saw. It was a man, with soft hazel eyes and a close shaven face with a head of raw umber curls wrapping a lightly tanned face. He had a look of royalty and as I gathered the courage to look at my new surroundings I noticed that the room was candle-lit and we were laying on a rounded bed covered in satin and velvet wrappings. He cradled my head in one hand and wrapped his other arm around my size 4 waist and laid me back on the wrappings. Then he said in a strong, but still soft voice, “Can I make love to you?” And I replied. “Uh uh”. And he did.
Johnny Depp, you aint’ got nothing on the dragon!
Special Thanks to tlrgs and cke123 for giving me the courage to face the dragon!!!!!
