Chapter 1 - Love's Beginning

Never in a thousand years did the stars look as bright as they did tonight. Rian snuggled in his arms, sleeping soundly after making love, and it was all Orophin could do to stay awake to watch her. The love he felt for her struck a chord deep within his soul. For so long, his dreams showed him his heart's wish: to possess and be possessed completely by the woman who captured his heart and did not let go. Holding her tight against him, he sighed into her white-blond hair. 

"I love you," he whispered and then succumbed to sleep.
