Excerpt
Gerald awoke with a start, gasping
into the strange box of reality, the room dark with shadows and filled with the
scent of deeply anticipated horror.
“Oh, God,” he grunted, breathing
erratic, heart in flames in the center of his chest.
That dream.
That f*king dream.
He hadn’t had that dream about
Suzanne in eight years.
Drawing on every tool in his
psychological coping toolbox, Gerald started with deep breaths. Inhale for
eight, exhale for four. Something like that. His hands fisted the sheets, which
were damp in sections. Sweating profusely, Gerald stood, throwing the sheet off
him, stomping through his bedroom naked, headed to the kitchen for a glass of
water.
Instead, he found himself five
minutes later, standing in front of the open freezer door.
Just...standing there.
A glance at the stovetop clock told
him it was 4:56 a.m. Sunrise soon. The day would begin.
Hell, the day had clearly begun
already. No way was he going back to bed.
His nose was cold. His back was
covered with sweat. One drop trickled down his spine and into his ass crack.
And yet, still he stood there, stupidly staring at a half-empty freezer.
Enlightenment would not come from a
frozen pad Thai dinner.
Today was his day off. He had a
wide-open schedule. Nothing planned.
Which made today dangerous.
Think, man. Think, he urged himself,
recalling what his psychologist at the Veterans Affairs center had told him,
all those years ago. Use the tools. Don’t define yourself by the intrusive
thoughts.
He froze.
And realized that the dream had been
different this time.
Blinking, he felt his corneas stick
against the backs of his eyelids, the rapid eye movement necessary to return
his body to the well-oiled machine it needed to be.
The dream was different.
