kiss your lips.” His fingers traced farther down, and around one of her jutting pelvic bones. Her eyes rolled back under her closed lids.
    He whispered. “Let go of all of your thoughts. Come back to me and I will take you in such a way, no one on earth has ever quite fathomed.” His finger traveled beneath her camisole to circle her belly button. “I can help you let go. Tell me you want me.”
    Saffron’s eyes shot open. All at once, she sat up and gathered the blankets to cover herself. Her thoughts came in rapid fire, piecing together a puzzle that should have been so obvious. “Oh, my God. You tried to kill me.”
    Ny smiled. “I couldn’t kill you Saffron. Come, come now, what is this?” He lay alongside her, balanced on his side, his long powerful thighs close to hers.
    “ The full moon…me sleepwalking towards cliffs…all those times. I wasn’t a nut! It was you! You were trying to kill me!”
    His eyes flashed with glee. “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
    She shriveled away from him and his predatory finger. “You tried to kill me!”
    One of Ny’s eyebrows shot up in acute irritation. “Yes, yes. Must you be so melodramatic? You’re not dead after all.”
    Saffron backed off the bed and stood on shaky legs. She held one hand out before her, blocking Ny’s face, and smooshed the blanket to her chest with the other hand, as if that were enough to keep him away from her.
    Something was strange….
    She slapped her other hand to the back of her neck and the blanket fell away, leaving her exposed in a shift of filmy lawn. No long hair. She panicked momentarily as her mind drew a compulsive, frightening conclusion. Had he taken her hair away to punish her now? She slapped all around her head and breathed a sigh of relief. No, her hair was still there — all of it — including the couple of feet he had added. It was all just piled on top of her head. Her neck was left exposed, of course. A swift rage flew through her, which made the hairs on her neck stand on end. Immediately, she started pulling at her hair, releasing it, and letting it fall over her shoulders and down her back.
    “ You like my hair up, do you? That’s why I hacked it off, Ny! That’s why I’ll never, as long as I live, never, style my hair in any way remotely resembling that! “And what the hell am I wearing? If you want a nympho maiden from King Arthur’s court, go get one! I don’t wear this kinda shit!” This was said through gritted teeth as she continued to free the rest of her hair. It was no small attempt — it was a lot of hair. There was silence between them until finally, Saffron had released every single, little strand of red. She sat glaring at Ny in a pool of ravaged hair, pristine white sheets, and her gauzy see-through top.
    “ You can’t keep me here forever, Ny.” Her eyes skittered sideways. “Wherever we are.”
    “ You are right.” He seemed a little deflated now. He stared at her hair as if someone had just died. Then he perked up. “If you will not die, then we will have plenty of time here, alone, together. Then, when your human body expires, we will go back to the fairyland and be together there. After a while, we will choose new human lives, together, this time,” he waggled his finger at her as if she had been a naughty girl, “and things will go back to normal. We will live our lives as we once did. How could you have done this to me, Saffron? I have been in agony without you!”
    She ignored his question. “What do you mean, ‘we have plenty of time here’?”
    “ Nobody can reach us. I can hardly believe my luck. Who knew this would happen when I slipped inside your mind?” He wiggled his eyebrows mischievously and tapped his temple. “Who knew? Your body was empty — you were visiting your grandmother — so I hopped right in. It is the very reason astral projection is not recommended.” He stretched his arms wide, “This is fabulous!” Do you know I can feel
