I WAS CHEWING a bite of my chicken club sandwich while Reece and Bree sat across from me and kept watching me. I didn’t know what they were expecting me to do, but it made me uncomfortable. My eyes roamed over the small restaurant, a place called Nibbles. They served soups and sandwiches. The interior was encased in wood: wood floors, log walls, wood beams spanning across the ceiling and shiny wooden tables. A spiral wooden staircase sat toward the back, towering up to a loft above us. There was a large rock fountain in the corner, the bubbling water lending a relaxing soundtrack to the otherwise loud restaurant. There were also flowers of every kind sitting in colorful pots in every available space.

“How long have you and Dorian known each other?” Reece asked, his smooth Southern voice falling from his lips like honey.

I brought my attention back to the spirit walkers. “I don’t know.” I tapped my temple. “Zapped memories and all.”

Bree and Reece nodded in unison. Bree lifted her iced tea to her lips and took a small drink before replacing it on the coaster above her plate.

“How long have you two known him?” I asked, popping a fry into my mouth.

“I’ve known him for about four years,” Bree said with a small smile.

“Since eighteen,” Reece told me. “I grew up with my grandma in Texas, in a haunted house no less, and Dorian showed up one night. I saw him standing on the sidewalk outside, and I knew who he was, what he was. I thought he was there to take my grandma’s soul.” Reece chuckled to himself as he remembered the night. “Turns out he was just there to take care of the ghost haunting our house. He recognized what I was and stuck around a couple days to give me a few pointers. Over the years we’ve crossed paths and eventually became friends, though friends isn’t really the right word, more like acquaintances.”

I nodded, popping another fry into my mouth. The glances Bree and Reece kept stealing toward each other put me on edge. Could they sense something was wrong with me? More importantly, was lunch at Nibbles my last meal before they extracted my soul? While Dorian didn’t think the spirit walkers would be able to figure out my soul was expired, I didn’t share his feelings on the matter. They extracted souls for a living; surely, they were professional enough to recognize an unnatural soul when it was staring them in the face, literally.

“Do you still live in Texas?” I asked Reece. He was good-looking, and I had a feeling he knew it. His eyes sparkled when he watched me. I was sure that sparkle had caused more than one woman to lose her panties. I, on the other hand, preferred my men a little…edgier. At least, I thought I did. I thought about Dorian, the absolute power of his dominance and a nice little shudder trembled my bones. Yeah, edgier was more my style.
