Don’t lose her.

Holly turned the time-path hard to the right, but shouted her dismay. The dark fae was right there.

The time-path was moving fast, too fast. She passed right through Lanarae. She wasn’t really there, of course. She and Rez were witnessing things that had happened at least a half hour prior. But it was disconcerting.

I thought we would run her down.

As she turned and viewed Lanarae from the opposite side, she reminded him how the time-path functioned.

And she really didn’t see us or feel anything?

From what Vojalie told me, there can be no interaction between the continuum and any event we observe. Contact can only occur within the continuum itself or if we stepped into the past.

Confusing as hell, but good to know.

Lanarae remained in one place. She faced the wall of the tunnel, her eyes closed, chin lifted, nostrils flared, fingers extended.

Holly recognized these movements. She’s tasting her environment, Rez, with each of her senses. Her faeness knows something is going on, but she doesn’t know what. This is good.

The dark fae turned the other direction and followed the hall as it curved and passed the previous intersection.

Holly pressed on.

A pair of heavy wood doors appeared. They were guarded by two of the biggest, bulkiest, half-naked shifters Holly had ever seen.

When Lanarae stopped outside the doors, the shifter on the left stared straight ahead. But the one on the right met her gaze. “You need me tonight?” His lips curved and his eyes narrowed.

“Yes. Bring a young female. Human this time.”

“I am at your command, Mistress.”

Holly felt a heavy wave of sex come from the couple. Her gaze landed on the shifter’s powerful shoulders and certain unfortunate thoughts went through her head. The next moment, Rez had an arm wrapped around her waist like a steel band. He pulled her hard against him and growled into her ear.

The sound hit the back of her knees. She would have fallen, if he hadn’t been holding her up. Stop looking at the wolf.

For what felt like an hour, her mind drifted back to the oak tree. She was right there, feeling him inside her, his body moving over hers. She wanted him again. She wanted him now.

All these thoughts were extremely inappropriate especially since they couldn’t stay in the continuum very long.

Lanarae nodded to the shifter, who in turn opened the door.

Rez leaned close, Take the time-path inside.

Give me a sec. Let me catch my breath.

bsp; Fine. But we don’t have a lot of time left here, do we?

No. We don’t. The reality they’d used up at least half their allotted minutes already, forced Holly to gain control of her over-stimulated senses. She took a series of deep breaths and with each one, his grip on her loosened as though he, too, sensed she was calming down.

A few seconds later, she blew through the now closed door.

The vista surprised her. The room had a deep patio cover across a large bank of windows. In the distance, she saw the snow-capped Tannisford range.

She blinked several times.

Holly peered at the vista. What part of our realm would hold that kind of view, I mean besides my own living room?
