Laurence knew that it could only be temporary, that it didn’t solve anything, but he allowed himself to pass the days that followed in a haze of pleasure. It would all end soon enough, and in the meantime—why not be greedy, just for a little while? Just for his Jane, who was equally greedy for him.

They ate every meal at a different restaurant—or ordered in from a different one—and spent hours wearing more gold than clothes. They made love on every inviting surface in the house as well as a few that made them both thankful for a dragon’s quick healing.

Laurence put the dragonglass back on to sleep, and any time they went out, but now that Jane had drawn his attention to it he felt the struggle of it every time. His scars ached when he picked up the bracelets, and burned while he wore them; he had to work hard to distract himself from the pain until it faded into the normal familiar background.

Luckily, Jane was intent on supplying him with distractions. She seemed completely devoted to the plan to enjoy life and each other just as much as they could, except when she happened to look at her phone.

She kept it away from him, and it was never as bad as that time he’d found her in the kitchen, but each time he felt the misery seize her, even when he was careful not to overhear or catch a glimpse of her texts or emails.

It wasn’t hard to piece together what it must be. Laurence and Jane were occupying a charmed bubble, separate from everything else, most especially including Jane’s real life. On the evening of their first full day together, he’d asked her when she had to go back to work, and she’d given him a determined smile and said, “I’m on vacation for a while. Mating leave. Everyone understands how it is.”

It couldn’t possibly be that simple, though. He was keeping her from her work now, and it wasn’t hard to guess that he might take her from it forever if he killed Farrell. Maybe not only Farrell; if anyone tried to stop him or apprehend him, they would surely be some of Jane’s fellow Georges. If he killed them too—if Jane tried to help him or stop him—

Every way he tried to work it out, it was better for Jane if he died in the fight, and every moment he spent with Jane he could feel his dragon growing more enraged at the thought of losing a moment of the next hundred years he ought to have with her. He kept it under control, drowned in the closeness of his mate and the satisfaction of showering her with gifts. Still, between the knowledge of what was to come and the niggling awareness that Jane wasn’t his mate yet, not completely, not forever, there was always a little shadow on their sunny days.

They’d had the better part of a week together when Laurence woke up to an actual shadow: it was dark as dusk outside, rain falling in a steady patter.
