Chapter Nineteen

That night as Rose sat at her dressing table brushing her hair, she wondered what tomorrow would bring. Only a few days ago, her existence was the same as it had been since her death – quiet, staid and more than a little boring. Now, not only had paranormal investigators invaded her house, but she’d also begun to question everything about her very existence. If her memories had been tampered with, what else had been done to her? She wasn’t sure she wanted to know.

This mess had started the night Sophia Hamlin tried to enter the house and it spiraled out of control when Tim and Justin arrived to investigate. Now, her once quiet existence was in shambles, new thoughts and raw emotions all tangled up in knots inside of her. She didn’t know who she was any more. In the span of only a few short days, she’d gone from being a ghost simply waiting for her beloved late husband to come and rescue her to a wannabe woman with a human lover and some very conflicted, very painful memories.

The only thing she knew with absolute certainty was that she loved Justin. She loved him far more than she had ever loved James, a man who was not the saint she’d once believed him to be. Now, she wasn’t even sure she had really known him at all. She did know Justin, though, right down to his very soul.

She hadn’t really wanted to send Justin away earlier, but she’d been so confused and scared that she hadn’t known what else to do. She’d just wanted time to sort through her feelings and make some sense of what she’d recently learned about James. Now that Justin was gone, however, she wondered how soon it would be before he returned. He’d said he’d stay away for as long as she wanted, but she prayed that the pull he felt for her was strong enough to overcome his common sense. If not, she’d just have to send her grandfather after him, she supposed, though she really didn’t want to do that. If he didn’t return by tomorrow night, however, she would have no other choice.

Sorting through her thoughts and emotions hadn’t taken long at all, actually, and now that she knew, or at least strongly suspected, the truth about James, there was no question in her mind. She loved Justin far more than she had ever loved James. James was an illusion and always had been. Justin was not. He was quite real.

However, the conflicting memories of her dead husband had shaken Rose badly. Before Justin had burst into her existence, she remembered James as being nothing but kind and loving, a peaceful man who never had a harsh word for anyone. He had adored her, done anything to please her. Now, she realized that her memories of him almost seemed too saint like to be real. She should have known better.

Not to mention that her sexual encounter with Justin that afternoon had been rough and coarse.
