"What is he, Mafia?"

"Oh no," she said, her voice thick with warning. "They make the Mafia look like Boy Scouts. These

are guys no one crosses with impunity."

Someone worse man the Mafia?

"Who are they?"

"Look," Selena said. "Let's just say he's in Tabitha's line of work, okay?"

Sunshine frowned. "Ladies' lingerie? He hardly looks the type to sell that."

"No, goof-ball. What she does at night."

Sunshine formed a small O with her mouth as she understood. "He's a vampire slayer?"

"Yes, and a really good one too."

That explained how they had met in the alley. Sort of, except the people who had attacked her hadn't

looked like vampires. They'd actually looked like yuppies.

"There's a lot more to it than that, isn't there?" Sunshine asked.

Selena nodded.

She smiled devilishly. "And you, my best friend on earth, my soul sister who shares Chunky Monkey

scoops and beefcake e-mails at the drop of a hat, the woman who made me wear a frothy, ruffled

lime-colored bridesmaid dress that added fifteen pounds to my hips, are going to spill your guts to

me, aren't you?"

Selena stiffened. "No fair and the dress wasn't lime, it was mint."

"It was lime-icky green and I looked like a sick pistachio. But that's beside the point. You're going to

spill everything because all's fair in love."

Sunshine wasn't sure which of them was most startled by the last part of that statement.

Selena turned to face her. "What? You're telling me you love Talon?"

Sunshine sat back as she tried to sort through her feelings for Talon. There was so much about him

that she adored, so much about him that she craved, and at the same time she knew nothing about who

and what he was now .

All she knew was how he made her feel whenever she looked at him. The way she wanted to go home

right now and be with him.

"Honestly, Selena, I don't know. Every time I'm around him I feel so alive. So warm and protected—

like nothing in the world can touch me or blight my happiness. He just fits with me. I know this sounds

crazy…"

She paused as she glanced at Selena's psychic stand, which was filled with trinkets, rune stones, and

tarot symbols. On second thought, crazy to Selena was par for the course.

Sunshine stared at her, trying to make her understand. "Talon and I were married in another life."

A dark light appeared in Selena's eyes. When she spoke, her voice was scarcely more than a whisper.

"Does Talon know this?"

She nodded. "He even called me his wife last night when I made him sleep on the couch."

"Sleep on the couch?"

"Long story."

Selena turned one of her cards over. She looked at the Death card, then looked at Sunshine. "Did he

say it was in his former life?"

"No. In fact, when I dream about him I look different, but he doesn't. He even has the same tattoos and

that is weird beyond weird. I even recalled him getting those tattoos done. Now I'm not sure if I'm

insane or what."

Selena covered Sunshine's hand with hers and gave a light, sympathetic squeeze.

"No, hon. You're not a loon, at least not about this.
