underneath the pain a tiny pulse of awareness flickered. Somehow, he knew what it was.

“I found it,” he told Keely. “I found the Star, and I know where we have to go. It’s going to be

quite a walk, but we can probably make it in a day or so, unless my reserves of energy come

back sooner and I can use the matter transference technique again.”

Keely stared at him steadily, as though taking his measure. Whatever she saw evidently

reassured her, because she nodded decisively. “I’ve walked through jungles before, but never

without drinking water. We’ll have to take it slow and easy until you get your strength back

and can at least bring us some water bottles and something to eat.”

“I should be able to do something about the water soon,” he said confidently, in spite of the

fact he had no idea how soon his powers would replenish—if ever. Keely didn’t need to know

how unsure he was of the Nereid magics. She had enough courage for any warrior, but there

was no need to continue to test it.

She started walking, then stopped suddenly and laughed. “I guess it would help if you told me

which way we’re headed. Also, when it comes to those water bottles, be careful not to teleport

them from the packs of some poor, unsuspecting hikers or tourists who will be left freaking

out, wondering what in the heck happened to their water.”

He pointed toward the faint beacon of magic that still flickered faintly in his mind. “The Star

lies in that direction. As to the other, I will do my best,” he said, wondering when the sound of

her laughter had become more beautiful to him than any music. He surreptitiously adjusted his

pants so walking would be less uncomfortable and started forward, resolutely pushing all

thoughts of Keely, naked, out of his mind.

He glanced back at her, and caught his breath at the excitement glowing in her green eyes.

Okay, he’d at least try to push most thoughts of Keely, naked, out of his mind.

As he’d told her before, he was a guy, after all.

Three hours later, Keely called a halt. She was tough, and she’d vowed to herself to keep up

without complaint, but hiking any farther with no water was suicidal and she was no idiot. In

the fierce, furnace-room heat of the jungle, moisture was being lost from their bodies at a

rapid rate. Maybe Atlanteans, being sort of water people, could handle it better than mere

humans, but she needed a rest.

Also, she was tired of staring at his backside as he led the way through the thick vegetation.

Not that he didn’t have a very fine backside. Broad shoulders tapered down to his narrow

waist, not to mention that tantalizing braid of his that she really, really wanted to loosen so she

could run her fingers through those long strands of silky hair. His butt was so firm and

muscular that she’d entertained brief fantasies of biting it, about an hour or so back, when

she’d still had the energy for that sort of thing.

Wonder how the tough Atlantean warrior
