Title: The Greatest Trick, (2) Rating: G Word Count: 185 Pairing: Raoul/Sabine Round/Fight: 1/G Summary: Raoul dreams of a woman.
“Raoul,” whispered the woman with large brown eyes. They were all he could see, brown sorrowful reproachful eyes. “Where are you?”
“I’ve looked for you everywhere. Please, come back. I’m sorry. I miss you.”
“I love you.”
Raoul of Goldenlake and Malorie’s Peak shot up straight in his bed in a cold sweat. He wiped the moisture from his face with a shaking hand, then fell back onto his damp bed with a hearty groan.
The same dream, or a very similar one, had haunted him for the past month. Not every night, but enough that Raoul was developing shadows under his eyes. Kel teased him that he had a secret lover keeping him awake, and it was more true than she’d suspect. He couldn’t be happier that the Own would be in Corus tomorrow. He needed help. Dreams like this weren’t normal.
Raoul shoved aside his blankets and rose from the bedroll to look over paperwork. If he went back to sleep now, he’d see that same woman, pleading his name. He’d never seen her before in his life, but she looked achingly familiar.
He felt her name in his gut. In his dreams, he thought he whispered it back to her.
Sabine.
It was a whisper of a thought. In the daylight, it receded back to mere wisps and tendrils of blurry memory.
