I sat up and instantly wished that I hadn’t. My head spun, and my stomach turned. I groaned as I took a quick look around and lay back down on the soft bed. In those few moments I had seen that I was inside a small cottage. There was a fireplace to my left, currently crackling with a few logs and making the air hot and thick. Herbs hung above the mantle, and something was simmering in a big pot hanging over the fire. By the scent in the air I could tell that it was some sort of vegetable soup. In front of the fireplace was a table, and to its right was a primitive kitchen. To the left of the fire place there was a stack of wood, a rocking chair, and a bookshelf with only three books. Directly across from me was a door, currently closed, and the window beside the bed showed me a twilight world.
It had worked…I was in Anna’s cottage.
My heart pounded in my chest, for I knew that Anna would be along shortly. Last time, she had come through the door only a few minutes after I had awakened.
It may have only been a few minutes before, but each passing minute while I waited felt like hours. I couldn’t wait to see Anna again. I couldn’t wait to hear her voice, to see her laugh—
Just then the front door opened opposite the foot of my bed, and in walked Anna. She stopped at the threshold clutching a glowing vial in one hand and the doorknob in the other. When she saw me, her eyes widened with devilish delight.
“Oh good, you’re awake,” she said with a smile.
“It’s you…” I said, and my throat constricted. “It’s really you.”
She gave me an odd but entertained look, then she closed the door behind her. I stole a quick glance at her ass and smiled to myself. She wore a green cloak, but I could easily make out her pert tush beneath the canvas. Anna turned and drew her hood back, and two long ears twanged into position like a pair of door stoppers. She turned emerald eyes my way and shook out her curly auburn hair. Her lips were a bright pink, which contrasted with her bronze skin well, and she had the same perky c-cups that I remembered so fondly.
She noticed me checking her out, grinned, and strode toward the bed.
“How you feeling? Looks like they did a number on you,” she said as her eyes moved slowly over my body.
“I feel like I died,” I said with a laugh.
“Just a moment ago…” she said hesitantly. “You acted like you knew me. Have we met before?”
“Once, but that was in a dream,” I said with a smile.
She smiled back at me and blushed.
“My name is Samson,” I said and extended my hand. “But you can call me Sam.”
“My name’s Anastacia,” she said and shook my offered hand. “But you can call me Anna.”
