Cara woke and memory returned with such clarity that she fell out of bed with a muffled yelp and landed on cold stone. She untangled herself from the sheets and ran her hands over the slashed wetsuit she still wore. She rushed to a window where the faintest hint of light tried to enter the room and whipped back the curtains. Her breath caught in her throat as looked out at a lake, which was as large as a football field and clear as a mirror. It was all too familiar and she was swamped with deja vu. Beside that lake was where the warrior lay her down on the blanket and took her out in the open. Cara pushed the window open and leaned half of her body out. Her room was on the fourth story of a... castle?

Cara whirled to face the room. It was made of stone and aside from the modern touches, it was identical to the room she and the warrior had sex in twice. The room was simple with an antique bed engraved with symbols she didn't understand, an archway that led into a closet and a modern bathroom. She stood frozen in horror in the middle of the room when the door swung open.

Cara's mouth went dry until she saw a young woman around her age. She had bright hazel eyes, caramel colored hair and a mountain of clothes in her arms. Cara automatically scanned her for any hint of possession. She sensed nothing and relaxed the slightest bit as the other woman dumped the clothes on the bed and turned to her.

"Morning."

Cara blinked. "You're American?"

The woman looked just as surprised. "Yeah, I'm from Texas. Where are you from?"

"Montana. I'm Cara."

"I'm Linnea. Spent all my life in the States, but I have a Granddad here. Nothing keeping me in Texas, so I decided to be adventurous and go international. I've been working at the castle for almost a year and never met the owner until now." Linnea glanced towards the open door, leaned forward and whispered, "He's kinda scary, isn't he?"

Cara blew out a breath. So, Aodhan was here. She didn't know whether that should reassure or terrify her. "He sure is."

Linnea cocked her head to the side. "Are you his lover?"

Cara stared at Linnea and ran her hands through hair stiff with salt. "No! No!" She looked at the pile of clothes and seized the distraction desperately. "Are these for me?"

"Yeah, I don't know where he got them, but he was coming up here when I bumped into him. I told him I'd bring it to you and ask what you wanted for lunch."

"Lunch?" Cara repeated stupidly. Why were these people always trying to feed her?

She rifled through the clothes and chose jeans and a sweater. She needed to make a plan that involved leaving here as soon as possible.

"I can cook whatever you want," Linnea said.

"A sandwich is good if you have it," Cara said distractedly. "You have a car?"

Linnea shrugged. "Nothing to brag about, but, yeah.
