Chapter Six

Zora averted her gaze from his naked loins. This was the second time today she’d seen him naked and she didn’t think she could handle a third. He was a perfectly sculpted, raw masculine perfection that threatened her very resolve. “Bring them back to the house and I’ll fix them,” she said stiffly.

He wasn’t even in the least bit embarrassed, standing there with an arrogant lift to his mouth. She turned on her heels and walked back to the house. She heard his steps behind her, her back tingling with awareness.

“Can you tell me what the hell that was all about back there?” he asked abruptly.

Her back tingled from his tone, but she kept walking, refusing to turn around. “What was what all about back there?” she countered, but she knew what he meant.

“The wolves, dammit! They tried to kill me earlier and they acted like damn puppies with you.”

“I have a way with animals, especially wolves,” she replied tightly.

Quickly, she sped up her steps and went into her home. Without looking at him, she went to the centuries-old chest on the floor by the fireplace and lifted the lid. The book of spells was old and dusty and she made a mental note to wipe it later. She lifted it from the chest and took a deep breath, having forgotten how heavy it was. Bracing herself, she turned around and faced him.

Relief flooded through her veins. He’d taken one of her throw rugs and had wrapped it around his middle, leaving his tattered clothes on the arm of the sofa.

He eyed the big dusty book in her arms. “What is that?”

She hugged it close to her chest. “This is my book of spells. I usually take a needle and thread to repair clothes. I try not to use my spells for everything. I…I want to…to…” her voice trailed at penetrating stare he gave her.

“To try to live a normal life,” he said, finishing her statement.

“Yes.” She tore her gaze from his and put the book down on the table. She opened the cover and wrinkled her nose at the musky smell that rose from the yellow pages. She felt his presence behind her and froze. Did he have to stand so close to her?

Quickly, she flipped through the pages, numbered and alphabetised…cats, cinder… She breathed a sigh of relief. There it was. Clothes. She scanned the ancient words and found what she was looking for. Mothisestrum—the spell for mending clothes.

“This book has been handed down for centuries with each generation adding new spells to its binding,” she murmured. “Unfortunately, my ancestors weren’t all great spellers and I hope I pronounce this right.”

This had better work, she thought. The last thing she needed was Bryce prancing around naked until he left tomorrow.

She raised her hand and pointed it towards the clothes.

“Mothisestrum,” Zora whispered and watched a magic mist lift and attach his tattered clothes.
