Bran arranged another car for them since the Blackwood Coven was now watching the train and bus stations and the airport. Fionn decided he would drive to Orléans. Despite it being an eight-hour drive.

“It’s not an eight-hour journey in what we’ll be driving,” he’d replied when she’d questioned the length of the drive.

Rose understood what he meant when she saw the car. They’d collected their things from the hotel, he’d given her five minutes to freshen up, and then they were in a cab that took them across the city to its coast.

Their driver let them out at a luxury beachfront property. Outside it was a woman in a figure-hugging blue dress, leaning against a vehicle Rose was pretty sure belonged to Batman.

It hugged the road with elegant lines and curves; its nose and headlights created a hood that was somewhat feline. Dark matte-gray paint, black wheels, and wing mirrors gave it that Batmobile look.

It was the sexiest car Rose had ever seen.

The woman in the dress, with her impressive cleavage and tiny waist, pushed off the car at Fionn’s approach, her gaze widening ever so slightly as she sashayed across the tarmac to meet them. She was wearing six-inch spiked stilettos and glided in them as easily as Rose could.

Rose wondered who the stranger was and tried not to feel agitated at the way the woman eyed Fionn like he was her next meal.

Sidling a little closer to him, the territorial action caused the stranger to offer Rose a genuine smile. They halted before each other and the stranger turned her attention to Fionn. She held up a key fob.

Fionn took it. “You got the money?” he asked.

The stranger nodded. “I hope you’re not doing anything illegal in it?” she asked, her accent Spanish.

“We’re not.”

“Bran assured me as much, but I just needed to double-check. Her tank is full, but remember you can drain her in less than ten minutes if you go at her top speed.”

“Noted.” Fionn was staring almost avariciously at the car.

“Bran said you’ll have someone trustworthy return her to me?”

“Absolutely. Thanks.” Fionn moved around her, heading toward the car like he was under a spell.

The woman pouted. Actually pouted.

Rose could feel her pain. Right then she felt a little invisible to Fionn too. She stepped up beside the stranger. “Guess you’re used to people admiring the car’s curves.”

“Sí, darling, but I’m used to having mine admired too.” She eyed Rose. “Is he not attracted to women? Or just in love?”

With Rose?

She guffawed at the idea, grinning. “With your car, sure.”

The woman chuckled. “She’s easy to love.”

“Apparently,” Rose murmured. Fionn had opened the hood and surprised her by putting her backpack in a spot in there. Then he’d put his garment bag behind the passenger seat. He caressed the side of the car, and Rose felt a prick of envy.

Seriously, he’d forgotten she existed.

“What kind of car is it?”

“Querida, a Bugatti Chiron,” the woman replied, as if Rose should know what that meant.

“Right.”

“It’s worth two million dollars, so if your boyfriend scratches it, he bought it.
