Her eyes flew open, Theodosia sitting upright in bed. Heartbeat in overdrive, sweat dripping down her face, the young woman looked over at her girlfriend, who was asleep in their bed. It was just a nightmare. Just a bad dream.
This wasn’t the 1800s, there was no duel going on. Phillipa was fine, she wasn’t bleeding in Theo’s arms, dress soaked with crimson.
No, this was 2016, New York City, and they were sharing an apartment. They were living happily.Tears spilled out of the younger’s eyes, and she gently shook Phillipa awake.
“Philli. Philli, wake up.”
