MARA DECIDED that if anyone had more than one personality, it was Luke Naha.

On one hand he could be insulting, cold, even menacing.

On the other, he could be quite civil, even caring. She’d been surprised when he’d comforted her at the restaurant, had acted genuinely sympathetic.

Touched, she’d felt bereft afterward when he’d seemed to withdraw into himself. But perhaps he was still feeling exposed after admitting his fear that he’d caused a fire. No wonder he’d never wanted to talk about his nightmares. He thought he couldn’t control them, had to be carrying a load of guilt.

Something she knew about firsthand.

So she didn’t press him for conversation on the drive home, though the usual subtle tension rode between them.

He finally broke the silence himself. “You haven’t seen any strangers around your neighborhood?”

“I haven’t lived in this area long enough to know who’s a stranger and who isn’t.”

“Noticed anybody following you, hanging around your building? An Indian?”

“Just you,” she said lightly.

He gave her a narrow sidelong glance. “You need to keep your eyes peeled. Obviously someone doesn’t like you.”

“An understatement.”

“It could be worse.” He pointed out, “You’ve gotten warnings so far, nothing real serious.”

“If you say so.” Otherwise, the coyotes would have caught her, as he’d suggested before. “What I can’t figure out is

why . . . who would have something against me?” If it wasn’t Luke himself or Isabel.

“Maybe it has something to do with your dreamwalking ability.”

She was startled. “Someone else knows about it?”

“A person with power often recognizes it in someone else.”

“Power?” She wanted to laugh. “So far, dreamwalking hasn’t given me anything but problems.”

Plus an incredibly erotic fantasy experience with Luke, one she often longed to repeat in the flesh. As he pulled up in front of her building, his face brooding, she wondered if he was also thinking about that. He put the Jeep in park but kept the motor running.

She reached for the door handle, feeling weak and wrung out.

“Just a minute.”

Surely he wasn’t going to suggest he walk her to the entrance. She didn’t think she could deal with another one of his goodnight kisses. She’d crumple and he’d have to carry her upstairs . . .

He stared out through the night-dark windshield. “You don’t need training to use your abilities, at least in the simplest ways. You should look around, listen hard, try to be aware of everything you can. If you feel uneasy or uptight, take it seriously.”

She’d had an uneasy feeling after the doll had landed on her balcony, all right. And, today, she’d been spooked when she first noticed the coyotes following her. But she couldn’t bring herself to mention psychic abilities.

“You’re saying to pay attention to my intuition?”

“You need to watch your back.”

Was he saying he cared about her? Perhaps that was an issue if they were connected by the bond he’d spoken of.

She felt his warmth as he leaned across her to open the glove compartment. Rummaging around, he pulled out a small leather bag with a drawstring, which he handed over.
