Panic, anger and shame fought for dominance as Arabella flew.

Dante had done the right thing. Done what she couldn’t.

Something inside her snapped. She couldn’t do it.

This was a reality she could not live with.

Her senses flared. There was a familiar presence nearby. She wasn’t alone. She could go there and stop the anguish tearing her to shreds. Stop the pain. It was the only answer, and too tempting to resist.

She swooped down and shifted.

The next day Dante skipped breakfast and went straight to his office. He hadn’t slept. His sheets smelled of Arabella. He was torn between the desire to shred them and never wash them again.

It took everything he had to concentrate, but in the end, it would save him.

Crystal arrived at eight o’clock as promised. They got her set up in the conference room across the hall. The room where Arabella should be.

“So what are you thinking?” he asked Crystal. “What do you want to do?” He had to admit he was curious as to her change of heart. Twenty years and she’d never displayed an interest.

“I think I’ll spend a few days getting to know the systems. It’s been a long time. I need to bring myself up to speed.”

“Sounds like a plan. I’ll have Tarn come in and give you a tour of the processes and software.”

There was a softness in her eyes he hadn’t seen in years.

The Fates sure liked to fuck with them sometimes.

Later that afternoon, Tarn was at his door with a concerned look on his face.

“What’s up?”

“Have you seen Arabella? We had a meeting scheduled for four but she’s not at the barn.”

She had to be as much of a mess as him. “Give her a day. She wasn’t feeling good yesterday. I’m sure she’ll be back tomorrow.”

“Ok. I’ll leave a message.” He started to go, but paused. “Crystal is catching on fast.”

“Yeah?”

“Yeah. She could be a help around here, especially with these new projects.”

“Good to hear. Thank you.”

Tarn rapped on the door frame and left. Arabella and Crystal. Two currents in his life. One forced, the other a necessity he couldn’t have. Fuck.
