Chapter nine

I woke up cranky, still frustrated that Michael interrupted my astral snooping, but then I remembered I knew who the female had been stalking, and when he brought me tea in bed I forgave his night-time blunder.

“What are you going to do about your vision, darlin’?” Michael handed me my tea and sat down beside me.

I took a sip, letting the warmth seep into my body. “I’m going to speak to the others this morning and we’ll come up with a plan. Seeing as we don’t know what kind of creature it is, we have no idea how dangerous it could be. I can hold my own with most magical beings, but I think until we know for sure what she is I won’t approach it on my own.”

“That seems sensible. I know you’re strong, but sometimes it’s better to be cautious. Do you want me to cover the shop this morning to give you time to look into this?”

I wrapped my arms round his neck and pulled him in for a kiss, “How did I get so lucky to find you, my Selkie? I’ll get the kids ready for day care and you jump in the shower and wash the salt off from last night. I’ll be at the shop for lunchtime to let you have the afternoon to yourself.”

He reluctantly removed himself from my hold, “We are all lucky, darlin’, blessed by the goddess to have such a family.” With a gentle kiss on my forehead he wandered into the bathroom and I went to get the twins dressed.

After ten minutes of wrestling to get the wee ones into their clothes, I gave them a second breakfast and called Kenna. “Good morning! I think I have a lead on the creature.” I explained my dream and we agreed for everyone to come here. She would call Flora, who would then call Cait so I wasn’t on the phone all morning and could get organised for guests.

Leaving the kids to their toast, I went to see if Michael was out of the shower. I was slightly disappointed to find he was almost dressed, but slipped off my T-shirt and turned on the running water for a fast wash.

I was showered and dressed in record time so that I could say bye to the kids before they went to day care. To pass the time before the other Keepers arrived, I pottered about getting snacks and made the kitchen presentable, not that my friends would care, but it made me less jittery about this unknown female.

Cait arrived first and Flora and Kenna arrived together in Flora’s car. We quickly sat down and I relayed last night’s dream to them, giving as much detail as I could remember about Scott’s late night booty call.

“He’s not out on the fishing boats, or he would have been down at the harbour last night. Let’s check out his house in case she’s still there and check to see if he was bitten too. If he was, that ties him to Joe and maybe to Bobby as well.
