as I adjust to the sight.

A large multicolored castle rises above us with gleaming parapets and turrets. At the center of a huge courtyard, a spacious mansion with columns and a polished door that’s twenty feet high magically opens up as if to beckon us inside. And off to the right, there’s a clean stable that smells of fresh hay with an adjoining pasture that stretches out into bright-green hills dotted with purple flowers far into the distance.

I take in a deep breath and know I’ve made the right decision.

“What do you think, dream mate?” Reve asks, teal eyes twinkling with excitement.

“It’s perfect.” When he first told me he was going to do some “renovations” in my dreamscape, I was hesitant. But after we talked it out and figured this would be the best place to stay while we decide which world we want to stay in and for how long, I couldn’t hold back anymore. “I can’t believe it’s still the same yet so… different.”

“You already did such a good job keeping your dreams alive, keeping this place from falling apart in spite of all the stress and work you’ve had to do over the years. I just made it how I felt you would want it to be if you’d been shown how.” He smiles at me, his bright expression more dazzling than the palace itself. “But from here on out, you and I can take care of it together. Make any changes as needed, work on improvements, add a—mph.”

I lean up on my tiptoes to kiss him, so grateful for how perfect he’s been by giving me space to adjust while doing so much on his own. When I pull back, I can feel the sparks between us, and I’m more than a little curious to see what the bedroom in this place looks like now.

“It’s so wonderful, Reve. Thank you.”

“Whoa, this is awesome!” Joey is making himself dizzy as he turns in circles, taking in everything. “A unicorn? You didn’t tell me there would be a unicorn!” He rushes toward the stables, and Reve and I follow behind, his arm wrapped around my side as I nuzzle into his chest.

“Your mother has done a fine job watching after her steed.”

Joey leaps up on the fence, and the horse leans over as Joey scratches eagerly behind its ear. Then, with a shout of glee, he leaps off and makes for the mansion doors. “I wanna see what it’s like inside.”

“Be careful not to trip,” I warn as he runs at full speed.

“Thankfully, the ground won’t hurt him here like the real world. Everything is safer here.” Reve holds me close as we follow behind.

“That’s definitely something I can look forward to,” I reply.

He smirks, and I throw him a curious glance. “Just… your toaster had the worst habit of shocking me in the mornings.”

“So the toaster here won’t give me my morning wake-up call?” I ask playfully.

“Not if you don’t want it to, it won’t.”

We share a laugh as we walk through the entryway and are greeted by a vaulted ceiling with intricate woodwork that rises high above us. A spiraling marble staircase winds its way up on our left, and to the right, there’s a large greeting space with plush couches. Behind it, I can see a dining area and a kitchen, and I wonder what mealtime will look like now that we don’t have to crowd around a small table that was barely big enough for just Joey and me before Reve came.

Just the thought of having every day with the two loves of my life makes my heart fill to bursting.

“Oh frick,” Joey says as he stands in place, stunned for a minute.

“Do you still want to have your friends over to visit this evening?” Reve asks.

I blink up at him, still entranced by the love and kindness in those teal irises as they wait for me to respond.

I almost forgot that we invited everyone over to visit our newly refurbished dream palace, and I look forward to seeing all of my friends, both old and new, here with us.

“Absolutely. You don’t think it will be too weird for Sandra?”

“She already knows much about dream fae. I think she’s already visited Tess’s once or twice.”

“Maybe I should talk to her, see what the holdup is with her dating Jerrek.” I tap my foot, wishing the best for my friend who’s always looked out for me since we were in college.

“Jerrek is an indomitable soul. So is Sandra. We just need to wait for them to figure out their own feelings and be there if they need our help.”

I nod in agreement. “You’re right. In the meantime, let’s go find our rooms.”

“Yeet!” Joey yelps, making for the stairs. We reach the second floor, which is carpeted in plush maroon and ember colors and is so soft beneath my feet I want to take my shoes off just to see what it feels like.

“We can have as many or as few bedrooms in the house as you want. For now, I settled on a dozen, just in case you have company.”

“A… dozen?” I ask, agape.

“Is that not enough? I can add two more floors, which will take us to thirty if you want. That doesn’t include the library or the solarium or the—”

“No, no, that’s plenty.” After living in a small house barely fit for a family of three, it’s difficult to suddenly think about having so much space. So much freedom.

But that’s what Reve has been doing since he first showed up in my life. Freeing me from my fears, my past, my worries. Giving me hope for happiness and a future that isn’t just satisfied with survival anymore.

Joey runs ahead, opening doors and looking inside one room after the other. “Where’s mine?”

“Any of these can be if you want. But I put all your things in the one at the end of the hall, just there.” He points.

Joey bolts, and I hear more yells
