Sex with a Ghost 1&2

"I know right now, you are thinking that it is just a dream and means nothing. Maybe it was with a lover or a crush and you think it is cool. It is just my brain playing a trick on me, bringing my sexual desire to live, you tell yourself. That is exactly what the devil wants you to think; so it can control your life and destiny. Sometimes the devil will come with the face of a loved one." the young prophetess said sending a chill down my spine, weakening my legs.

What if I have a spiritual wife for real and she comes in the night with the face of Philomena to have sex with me. The thought of it made me tremble all over with terror. Yesternight was not the first time I was making love with Philomena in the dream. Though, that was the first one that ended terribly. We made love frequently in my dreams and I saw it as nothing. Even in the afternoon when I sleep. It happens like I am in a trace. It is really difficult to tell sometimes whether it is real or a dream.

"Just raise your right hand and get clarified by the lady" the inner voice suggested. I was about to compile when someone answered

"Yes!"

I turned behind to find the lying employee on a black suit with his right hand up.

"My name is Silas. I work with an agency that loans money. Last month, a young lady came to the office to ask for financial assistance. She was really funny with a smile that made her eyes glitter. We got talking and she gave me her number without even me asking.

Not long after, we went on a date at ShopRite, Ikeja, Lagos. Everything was perfect and I invited her over for a weekend visit to my place. We went clubbing on that Friday night and returned late.

On the bed, ready to sleep, one thing led to another and we began kissing. Shortly, I began fingering her and she seemed to enjoy it until suddenly as someone awakened from a nightmare, she pulled away and said, "She was really tired and needs to sleep". As a gentleman, I allowed her and slept off.

In a dream, I found myself completely naked in a very large open space covered in German floor. It was evening, the sun was no more but it wasn't yet dark. Still wondering what I was doing there, I heard a loud yawn from a large snake that filled the silent air. I turned behind to find an anaconda headed in my direction in a wave-like movement with incredible speed, my heart nosedived into my stomach.

My instincts urged me forward and I took to my heels in a race for my dear life. I ran as fast as my legs could carry me, my heart almost beating out from my chest. I hoped to soon reach the end of the open space and find a place to hide or a way out, but instead, the dark space kept growing and expanding as I ran forward.

I ran for what felt like twenty minutes before I could spot the end of the German floor. On the other side was the ocean. An ocean that will lead to my freedom and I didn't care what was underneath it. Whatever down there was nothing compared to what was up and after me.

In slow motion, I jumped from the edge of the bridge while the snake opened its wide black mouth aiming for any part of me but missed completely and I landed heavily into the cold water.

I sank deep into the clear water but with time swam back up. On the very edge of the bridge was the massive snake. The brown coils of the snake curled tightly underneath itself. Its tongue flicked in and out as it watched with its reptilian eyes unblinking and yellow with anger.

"Thank God" buzzed in my heart. When the popping adrenalin calmed down, I noticed a shape pain on the middle finger of my right hand. I slowly raised it above water to see it was chopped off from the middle and dripping blood. Terror surged through me. My head felt bigger than a three-story building.

I opened my eyes to find the lady lying beside me completely naked, one hand supporting her head. Her eyes glinted with an evil need. She wore a wicked smile between her lips. Humiliation and fear washed over me.

"I wanted to surprise you," she breathed softly.

"Thank… you" I stammered and jumped out from the bed frighten.

"What's wrong?" she asked and sat up.

"Nothing, just a bad dream," I said heading towards my bathroom.

"Where are you going?"

"To use the bathroom, I will be back in seconds," I said daunted.

We all burst into titter including the young prophetess. Silas, who had just relived a terrifying moment in his life added

"It is funny now but it wasn't that particular moment inside the bathroom. A lot of thoughts crossed my mind. Why did the snake have to bite the same finger I used in fingering her? Have I been initiated into a spiritual cult? Were they drinking my blood in the underworld? As those questions rush through me, I felt a fear like no other seize my heart. The hairs on my neck stood up. Nervous sweat came to the surface of my skin.

I prayed as I have never prayed before. She came to the bathroom from time to time to check on me, calling my name but I refused to be distracted and kept praying till I was certain she was no more" he rounded up.
