![]() Crescent Calling
-- EXCERPT: That night, as Buddy kept me company, I fell asleep to the sound of wind howling through the trees outside. Plagued with dreams of wolves, I tossed and turned until I slipped into a deep slumber. When dawn finally broke, I was covered in a thin sheen of sweat, and my head was stuffed with cotton wool. I’d slept but not really. A heavy burden was over my heart, and my body had become twisted in the quilt, my feet trapped. Ugh, I was all hot and sticky. I kicked, trying to shift the uncomfortable weight and turned over, but it didn’t budge. Lifting my head, my eyes cracked open, sleep still clogging my head. That was when I saw a lump at the end of the bed. A very large, man-shaped lump. Now completely awake, I screamed, scrambling up the bed. It was Boone. A very naked Boone. He started, his head shooting up, and when he saw me, he rolled and fell off the end of the bed, hitting the floor with a thud. Scrambling to his feet, his face turned a deep shade of crimson. “Oh, shit,” he cursed, covering his junk with his hands. “Oh, cac.” “Cac?” I yelled. “I’ll give you bloody Irish cac!” Grabbing the lamp on the bedside table, I pushed up onto my knees and swung it with all my might. The plug popped out of the wall, and the shade barely missed Boone’s face, but the cord came around and whipped him directly on his bare ass. He howled in pain and retreated across the room. “Pervert!” I shrieked. “Let me explain,” he said, holding up his hands and leaving nothing to the imagination. “Explain? What’s there to explain?” I shouted, trying not to look at his you-know-what. “You were asleep on the end of my bed…naked!” I swung the lamp at him again, barely missing his head. “You’re still standing there. I can see your meat and two veg!” “Oh, cac,” he said again. “I didn’t mean for you to find out this way…” “Find out what? That you’re a pervert, who sneaks into women’s homes butt naked?” ![]()
