You Belong To Me

CH 1

Nik sat on the huge rock as the waves came crashing around him; he took deeps breaths as he let the salty air fill his lungs. He listened to the sounds of seagulls flying above his head. The sun was warm on his dark skin and he closed his eyes. Just feeling the waves crash into the rocks. His busy life was slowed in this moment, nothing to worry or think about. He opened his eyes and that’s when he saw her, the outline of her body as it walked along the beach. He couldn’t see her face but her body was that of a goddess. She was tall, and her long braids were sprawled out wildly on top of her shoulders. An overwhelming need to go to her came over him as he watched her. He felt his body being pulled towards her; he stood up to go to her. As he walked closer her, his feet sinking in the soft sand as he walked, he could see that the outline of her body was gorgeously illuminated in a pink glow of the sun that was now setting at the horizon. She was watching the ocean as he approached her, her shoulders looked so smooth in the white cotton sundress she had on. Her mocha colored skin looked so warm, so inviting. He reached out to touch her, just as his hand was about to reach its destination she disappeared.

Nik sat up in his bed, it was so real, she was so real. He looked around him and realized where he was, in his bed at Wyndemere. He looked over at the figure in the bed next to him. Her blond hair was draped across the pillow as her back was to him. Her bare shoulder was exposed on top of the dark satin sheet as it was tucked under her arm. He leaned over her to see that she was still sleeping. Sarah had been his girlfriend for a little over a year. He kissed her shoulder and rolled over on his back again. He looked up at the ceiling and tried to remember his dream. He smiled as he faintly remembered the feel of the ocean around him. The sight of the stranger walking along the beach with her graceful stride. He shook his head and got up out of bed, trying to shake the dream.

Walking over to the computer on his desk in the corner of the room, Nik turned it on and began to work. Nikolas was an heir to the Cassadine throne, and he soon would be taking on the role of the prince. His uncle raised him to be the best Cassadine to ever rule the family and that’s what he would be.

After working for a while, Nik looked up from the screen and looked back over at the bed. He could make out the outline of Sarah’s body from where he sat. He thought about the woman he was looking at. She was beautiful, blond hair and blue eyes. She was currently working at GH as head resident. She had all the qualities a guy could want and more. Both his and her families were expecting for Nik to propose to her but for some reason he was hesitant. He just didn’t feel like she was the one.

Nik shut down the computer, thinking it was safe to try and sleep again. He stood up and made his way over to the bed, where he got in behind Sarah. She stirred but he soothed her as he wrapped his arms around her. Try as he might, Nikolas still could not sleep. Thoughts of his bream kept coming back to him.

He hadn’t even seen her face, the mystery woman on the beach but the feeling of her presence lingered on. He sighed. He never had reoccurring dreams so he knew that the dream he had hours before would probably be the last time he dreamt of her. For some reason he felt in pain in his chest at the thought of that. He lay awake for a few more hours until he fell asleep again, just as the sun was rising outside.
