We lay on our backs, chests heaving, as we tried to catch our breath. Ren’s fingers grazed the skin on my stomach in lazy circles. The quiet was comfortable, as though we’d been here before and found solace together.

My eyelids dropped, my body signaling that it wanted to refuel before doing anything else. Unfortunately, Ember didn’t agree, and her voice cut through just as I started to drift off.

“Time for work. Torin wants to lure someone out. Maybe get some kind of tracker on them.”

I groaned and slapped Ren’s arm, startling him awake. A growl greeted me before he even opened his eyes but stopped when I spoke.

“Tor has some plan. Something about kicking asses and tagging them,” I said as I rolled off the bed and started sorting through our pile of clothes.

When I tossed his jeans over my shoulder, a muffled “oof” caused me to spin around. Denim covered Ren’s head, but the rest of him was on full display. Of course, I took a moment to enjoy the sight as he yanked them off. His face came into view, and he arched a brow and shook his newly revealed head.

“What? It’s not like you’re hiding anything?” I scoffed and turned back to try to find my shirt.

His hand wrapped itself in my hair, and he gave a little tug before releasing it. “I can think of something else you could do that would be much more fun than just looking,” he said.

As I pulled my top on, I replied, “You mean some knife play? Or biting?”

“Note to self. Keep your teeth away from the tender areas,” he murmured to himself.

Silence ruled as we finished getting dressed to find out what Torin had in mind for us next. Last thing I remembered was that we needed a potion and to get to Richard. Perhaps he’d come up with some way to locate the man.

“Ready?”

“As I’ll ever be, I guess. How’s the search through the financials coming?”

He grabbed my hand and started for the door as he answered, “Not sure. Someone’s kept me busy. I’ll have to check on it when we get to the living room.”

“And I have no regrets. Seriously though, we’ll figure it out. I’m positive we’ll be fine. When things slow down and we have more time, we can try the whole setup just how you want. If it’s too much, I’ll tell you and we’ll adjust. Perhaps work up to it. And, then it’s my turn,” I said. As I finished, he stopped causing me to run into his back as he blocked the way.

He spun, yanked me to him, and kissed me as if I was the air he so desperately needed. Tingles erupted, covering me like a second skin, as he took control of my body. Gods, I loved the forceful side of him that contrasted with the controlled masked man most people saw. When he released me, my lungs screamed for oxygen even as I wanted to continue.

“Fucking real world shit. Think we could run away for a while?”

“Doubt it.
