Grant shifted as he crossed the threshold. At the same time her wolf returned to her. “Sorry,” he said. “But Neil contacted me just now. He had a strong word of advice. He said we need an invisibility spell.”

“Where do we get one?”

“He said he knows the wizard he can ask to do it for us. But there’s something else.”

“What?”

“Renee was the one who told him.”

“Your wife?” Natalie was so surprised.

“Yup. My wife. She seems to be everywhere.”

“Are we supposed to go to Neil’s place right now?”

He shook his head. “No. Neil can’t do anything until after the day’s sleep. He has to make contact with the wizard then set up the meet, but he wanted to clear it with us first. He’ll let us know the timing which will be sometime later tonight.”

She could see he was uncomfortable with something that had nothing to do with Neil or his wizardry. “It’s Renee, isn’t it, that she’s here?”

His turn to sigh. “It’s made me miss her all over again, yet here I am with you and damn, I want to make love to you.”

In her heart of hearts, Natalie knew Renee wouldn’t object to what she was about to do. In fact, given Renee’s earthy quality and that she had truly loved Grant, she’d want it for him, for both of them.

Natalie caressed the side of Grant’s neck then leaned up and kissed him. “Your Renee, like Aaron, were wonderful people. But both are ghosts now and Renee is here to help, maybe even to make sure we survive. She’s not going to mind what we do, which leads me to this. Will you spend the day with me here, in my home? I want to be with you more than life itself right now.”

Chapter Six

More than life itself.

The words disturbed yet thrilled Grant. “The answer’s yes, but I need my gear.”

She smiled and kissed him again. “Make it quick.”

“Hell, yes, ma’am.”

She drew the slider open and as he flew into the air, he could feel dawn prickling his skin. He still had time, but that wasn’t the reason he flew like a bullet back to his burrow.

He needed this time with Natalie and maybe like her it was with a desire more than life itself.

He packed a bag while half-levitating, half-running. He contacted Ryan and told him where he’d be, then he was out the front door and shooting back into the air.

The prickling dawn sensation was stronger this time, so he added a booster and shot to the canal part of Revel. He descended into Natalie’s backyard once more as the steel shutters all along the patio began to descend.

He flew beneath them and landed just outside the doors.

She laughed. “Show off.” She then grabbed the front of his tank and hauled him inside.

The kiss she gave him this time wasn’t anything like before. She hooked him around his neck with her arm and planted her lips against his. He dropped his bag and wrapped her up in a lung-squeezing hug.

Her groans parted her lips and he drove his tongue inside in swift thrusts. When her other arm wrapped around his neck, he was pretty sure one of them was about to squeeze the life out of the other.

He drew back and pinned her gaze with his own. “Show me your bed, but I hope it’s strong.”

She smiled. “Everything in this house has a proper foundation.”

He picked up his satchel then with his free arm grabbed her waist. He lifted her off her feet, levitated then glided to the hall.

“At the end and to the right,” she said.
