Dry Spell

You have wondered and waited here it is as promised to commemorate reaching 30,000 words and beyond (I am nearing 40k now) an excerpt from "Dry Spell" this is one of Robin's favorite scenes so far.

This excerpt was too long to post on facebook so I am posting it here to share.

Kailyn was asleep as soon as she sunk into the soft fluffy bed. Her mind drifted into sleep; she was floating, rising into the air. The breeze cooled her skin and ruffled her hair. Soon Kailyn landed and saw Kadrim curled up under a tree with no covering. Now she felt guilty for taking his bedroll when he needed it tonight but she would need it later. He looked tired; he was following her but she had a healthy lead on him; he hadn't even made it out of the forest yet. Kailyn knelt beside him and stroked his dark blonde hair. She shifted closer to sit next to him; to feel his warmth against her. Kailyn’s heart was in her throat. She wanted to kiss him. She would allow herself this indulgence in her dream just this once. She leaned in even closer, turning over him and met his lips. Kadrim leaned into her and groaned; she felt wonderful in his arms. His eyelids rose to uncover his stunning blue eyes still hazy with sleep. Kadrim returned her kiss fiercely; his blood on fire. He wanted her so badly. His hand ran up her back and she shivered. With Kailyn’s hands on either side of his face she rained kisses on his brow and down his neck. Kadrim nuzzled into her neck and opened his eyes fully awake like the rest of his body.
"You have got to freaking be kidding me! Why did I deserve that?" Kadrim had only been dreaming; he was holding onto his leather bag. He was vastly agitated for his arms ached to hold Kailyn close and smell her hair. He drew in a deep breath, it even smelled like her. He looked up and saw a dark stormy cloud before his brain registered that it was raining. He might as well put up his tarp; at least she hadn't taken that. Kadrim built a makeshift cover from the rain. The ground was wet but he leaned against the tree and tried to go back to sleep; all Kadrim could think about was Kailyn.
