Cratag cherished the feel of Signet beside him. Their knees barely touched, but he was aware of those few millimeters of skin like nothing else in his life. He was sure he was connected to her somehow mentally, maybe even emotionally—hopefully not too emotionally—definitely sexually. But now was not the time to think about sex, so he concentrated on every syllable of the Residence’s words, the tone.

He became aware of a pale blueness, the yellow glow of Signet near, nudging him further . . . into emptiness.

Oddly enough, he felt a few moments of bliss, then more nothingness until the sound of the Residence’s voice pulsed against his eardrums and formed into words again . . . “aware and refreshed when I count down to one. Three . . . two . . . one. Welcome.”

Without volition, Cratag’s lungs shuddered inward as he took a huge breath. Oxygen to the brain? Maybe. But with that breath he smelled Signet and the fragrance of old incense in the room, and, he swore, the motes of the sun themselves.

Signet turned to him, and his heart tumbled in his chest at the smile she gave him. “Excellent trance for spiritual renewal, but not so good for working with Flair. Residence, please access the ResidenceLibrary and give us such lessons next time.”

“Yes, Signet,” the Residence said.

Du purred. Good dreamtime.

Beadle snored. Cratag knew he was dreaming of rabbits again.

Signet patted his knee, and her touch went straight through him like lightning. He became achingly aroused. And in no mood to resist temptation. Grunting, he rose and picked her up, hurried from the room.

“My bedroom is closest,” he said in her ear, then, “My sitting room sofa is even closer.”

It was, and being with her overwhelmed the bliss of being part of the universe, the joy of learning an ancient dance. So many blessings this morning, he knew the rest of his time with her would be the best of his life.
