The oppressive heat of the lecture hall was doing little to combat the chill that ran down my spine. My dream had been so vivid, so real. The shadowy figure, his muscled form, the searing touch, the sinful pleasure… it all felt like a forbidden memory.

“Miss Wallace!” Professor Jensen’s angry roar shattered the erotic haze. My heart catapulted to my throat, and I shrieked, jumping to my feet. Mocking laughter erupted around me. I was back in the drab reality of the lecture hall, fully clothed, and thoroughly mortified.

“I’m sorry,” I muttered, my cheeks burning. But it was too late. Professor Jensen, a man whose voice could lull a rock to sleep, was already condemning me. “This is the third time you fall asleep in my class. You showed me enough disrespect. Leave.”

Perfect. Just perfect. Another strike against Miss Bad Luck.
