Tales From Otherworld: Collection One
“He became aware of the noise as he began to reach the very edge of consciousness. Then, as sleep departed, rolling back like a wave, the sound grew louder, penetrating the last fog that separated Rozurial from the waking world. As he opened his eyes, he had to stop for a moment. For the hundredth time, or perhaps the thousandth—he had to let himself catch up. Had to remember who he was and how he had become the man he was now.
His dreams often took him home to his childhood, before Dredge ...destroyed his family. Or they swept him away to the idealistic days of his marriage where Fraale and he lived in love. Fraale, the only woman who had ever fully won his heart. A moment after waking, his heart would slow down, and he’d remember what had taken place during the long centuries of his life. And he’d remember how he’d become an incubus and once again curse Zeus and Hera.
But now, the sound was foremost in his mind. He listened. Whatever it was, it beat a steady cadence, like footsteps falling in an empty hallway. The studio had been divided into bedrooms—there were four, one of them empty.MoreLess
