Chapter 7

Lily sat in the soft, dark leather passenger seat next to Mason as he navigated his Charger through the Baltimore streets with ease. The kiss he’d laid on her not twenty minutes earlier still sang through her blood leaving her reeling. She’d been seeing him since she was six. Her crush started when she was twelve. She landed in love with him when she turned sixteen.

Not that she could ever tell him that.

He’d finally admitted that she must be the real deal. There was no way she was pushing her luck. And there was no way she was pushing so far that he brought up Alegra. When it came to her, Lily had no answers.

Mason rolled up in front of a neat brownstone in Bolton Hill, a historic section of Baltimore. “We’re here,” he said as he turned off the engine.

“So we are,” Lily said wringing her hands. She’d never done anything like this. Over the years she had grown used to the fact that she had no control over her visions, but in this, someone had control over her.

The idea of that terrified her.

If hypnosis worked, they could access anything in her mind and there were parts she considered off limits to Mason.

He walked around to her side of car and opened her door offering her a hand. The sensation of her skin meeting his shot right from her toes to the top of her head. If they became a thing, would it be that way forever?

Something told her it would.

He drew her up to him and lowered his mouth to her ear. “Relax. This is going to be painless.”

She shivered. “Easy for you to say, they aren’t going into your head.”

He cupped her cheek and raised her face to his. Oh, how she loved looking at him in the flesh where she could see the dips and valleys of his facial features, the texture of his rough, short beard. If she wanted, she could reach out and touch him instead of extending a hand to discover thin air streaming through her fingers.

“No one is going to access anything other than what relates to the case. You have my word on that,” Mason assured her.

Mason led them up the front steps and rang the bell. A slight, pretty woman answered the door. “Mason, good to see you again,” she said and shook his hand.

“Angela, good to see you. This is the friend I was telling you about, Lily.”

Lily reached out and took Angela’s hand. Ordinarily, Lily avoided handshakes. The personal contact could sometimes trigger visions. She did everything possible to protect her new life and avoid scrutiny, but the events of the last few days had crushed that plan to dust.

Angela’s cool, slim fingers immediately put Lily at ease. Something about her radiated calm and had Lily breathing a bit easier.

“It’s nice to meet you, Angela.”

“Please, do come in. I have a few papers for you to sign and we’ll get started.”

Mason urged Lily forward with his hand on her lower back.
