Chapter 10: Strange dream
As the evening unfolded in warmth and laughter, Azalea found herself immersed in the joy of spending time with her family. The mysterious encounter with the senior faded into the background as she relished in the simple pleasures of home.
After freshening up and sharing a delicious dinner with her loved ones, Azalea felt a sense of contentment wash over her. The comforting familiarity of her surroundings enveloped her like a warm embrace, soothing her weary mind and body.
As she crawled into bed, the events of the day melted away, replaced by a sense of peace and tranquility. With a contented sigh, Azalea closed her eyes, allowing herself to drift off into a peaceful slumber.
She suddenly felt the sensation of someone wrapping their arms around her from behind, pulling her into a gentle embrace. Startled, she gasped softly, her heart racing as she tried to make sense of the unexpected presence.
Turning around slowly, she found herself face to face with a tall man, his dark eyes locking onto hers with an intensity that sent shivers down her spine. Despite the initial shock, a sense of familiarity washed over her as she gazed into his eyes, a connection sparking between them like a silent flame.

Who are you? *gasps*
Azalea's voice barely above a whisper, her breath catching in her throat.
The unknown man smiled softly, his touch gentle as he brushed a strand of hair away from her face.
？？？
I'm just someone who couldn't resist the chance to hold you close!
？？？
*He murmured, his voice like a whisper on the wind*
At that moment, time seemed to stand still as they stood locked in each other's gaze, the world around them fading into the background as they were consumed by the intensity of their shared connection.
Feeling the man's hands gently encircle her waist, Azalea's breath hitched in her throat, her senses tingling with anticipation. His touch was tender yet electrifying, sending a rush of warmth coursing through her veins.
With a mixture of nervousness and excitement, Azalea leaned back into his embrace, allowing herself to be enveloped by the comforting strength of his arms. There was something undeniably magnetic about the way he held her, as if they were two puzzle pieces fitting perfectly together.
Lost in the intoxicating sensation of his touch, Azalea closed her eyes, savoring the moment as they swayed together in the gentle embrace of her dreams. In that fleeting instant, she felt a sense of belonging wash over her, as if she had finally found the missing piece of herself she had been searching for.
Wrapped in the arms of the mysterious man, Azalea allowed herself to surrender to the magic of the moment, relishing in the warmth and security of his embrace as they danced together in the ethereal realm of her dreams.
As Azalea nestled into the embrace, she felt the comforting warmth of his body against hers, her arm instinctively reaching up to clench onto his collar. His tender touches sent a shiver down her spine, igniting a fire of longing within her.
With each caress, Azalea's heart fluttered with anticipation, her senses ablaze with the intensity of their connection. In that moment, nothing else mattered but the intoxicating feeling of being held in his arms, enveloped in a cocoon of love and desire.
As she leaned into his touch, Azalea allowed herself to be consumed by the overwhelming rush of emotions coursing through her. His presence felt like a lifeline, anchoring her to the present moment and banishing all doubts and fears from her mind.
Lost in the sweetness of the embrace, Azalea savored every fleeting moment, etching the memory of his tender touches into the depths of her soul. In that dreamlike state, she felt truly alive, as if she had finally found the missing piece of herself she had been searching for all along.
As the man in the dark moved closer, Azalea could feel the warmth of his breath against her face, sending a shiver of anticipation down her spine. Her heart began to race, each beat echoing loudly in her ears as she felt his proximity.
With every inch that he closed, their faces drawing nearer, Azalea's senses heightened, her pulse quickening with each passing moment. His presence felt electrifying, filling her with a heady mix of excitement and apprehension.
As their lips hovered tantalizingly close, a surge of desire coursed through Azalea's veins, her body responding instinctively to the magnetic pull between them. In that suspended moment, time seemed to stand still as they teetered on the brink of something unspoken and electric.
With bated breath, Azalea awaited the inevitable, her heart pounding in her chest as she braced herself for the exhilarating unknown that lay just beyond the threshold of their shared desire.
Gasping for breath, Azalea's eyes snapped open, her heart still racing from the intensity of her dream. As she blinked away the remnants of sleep, she realized with a jolt that she had been lost in a reverie, a fantasy spun from the depths of her imagination.

*sweats profusely*
Glancing at the clock beside her bed, Azalea's heart sank as she saw the time – it was only midnight. The events of her dream felt so vivid, so real, that for a moment she had forgotten the boundaries between reality and fantasy.
Taking a deep breath to steady herself, Azalea shook her head, banishing the lingering traces of the dream from her mind. It had felt so tangible, so achingly close, but now she was back in the familiar confines of her bedroom, surrounded by the comforting darkness of the night.
With a sigh, Azalea settled back into her pillows, her mind still reeling from the intensity of her dream. Though the encounter had been nothing more than a figment of her imagination, the emotions it had stirred within her remained all too real.
Lying in bed with her eyes wide open, Azalea felt frustration gnawing at her as sleep remained elusive. She tossed and turned, willing herself to drift off into the realm of dreams, but the more she tried, the more elusive sleep seemed to become.

Come on, sleep, where are you? *frowns*
But the silence of her room was the only response she received. Frustration bubbled up inside her as she longed for the sweet release of slumber.

Maybe I'll try counting sheep!
Azalea mumbled, hoping that the age-old remedy would help soothe her restless mind.
But as she began to count, her thoughts drifted back to the dream she had just woken from, the memory of the senior's tender embrace and the electric anticipation of their almost kiss still fresh in her mind.
Groaning in frustration, Azalea buried her face in her pillow, willing her racing thoughts to quieten. But try as she might, the allure of her dream lingered, taunting her with its tantalizing promise of passion and desire.
With a resigned sigh, Azalea resigned herself to the fact that sleep would not come easily tonight. Closing her eyes, she focused on regulating her breathing, hoping that eventually, exhaustion would claim her and carry her away into the peaceful realm of dreams.
