Chapter Sixteen

Sam woke the next morning with Adalyn curled against her side. The weight of her was delicious and warm. Her coyote growled softly and Adalyn stirred but didn’t wake. Sam smoothed her lover’s hair back and stared down at her innocent face.

Adalyn had come into her life like a winter wind, and blown through it seeping into every corner of her without her even knowing it. Now, she was there, and Sam didn’t want to lose her. She knew three months wasn’t a lot of time for a relationship to grow especially since they hadn’t really talked until these last few days.

That was the human talking. The animal heart of her knew Adalyn by scent, by the shape of her body, and by the way she moved.

“I want you to be enthralled by me,” she whispered. “I want you to want me so much you can’t stand being away from me.”

Adalyn’s words had taken her by surprise, but hadn’t frightened her. She was enthralled by her. She did want her so much she couldn’t stand being away from her.

Again that was the animal talking. It knew there was more to the dancer than secrets and a soul hungry for love. The beast was ready to give her everything, to protect her, to kill for her, and even die for her.

“And the human half?” she whispered out loud. What of that part?

“Why? Because you might fall in love with me?”

The human part was the half that had been afraid to get involved with anyone again, especially this little dancer.

Sam slipped from the bed as carefully as she could so she didn’t disturb Adalyn. Then, she grabbed her bag and went into the bathroom to shower. The room was tiny in comparison to hers.

She’d spent the last several years carefully building a life she was content with. She’d changed women like she changed her tie. Sam had known love and it had twisted her and wrung her dry. Or had it? Her heart beat fast every time she saw Adalyn.

She showered and climbed out and moisturized deciding to leave her hair damp. She ran a towel through it and dressed in navy suit pants and teamed it with a crisp white shirt and red silk scarf she knotted loosely around her neck.

If she didn’t have the meeting this morning, she’d have stayed in bed longer. Sam ran a comb through her hair and took a small box from her bag and stepped out into the bedroom where Adalyn w still slept.

She searched for a piece of paper to write a quick note on. She found a pad attached to the fridge and tore off a sheet.

Sam scribbled a quick few lines and left them on the counter. She looked at the box and contemplated its contents. Adalyn would probably hate it, but she left it on top off the note and peeked into the bedroom. Adalyn hadn’t moved. She kissed her softly.

“I’ll see you later, Addy,” she murmured even though Adalyn couldn’t hear her.
