Luna’s mood improved once she and Colin left the Trevelyan Enterprises building. She had to make a decision about whether or not to visit her grandparents, but she didn’t have to make it now. Instead she and Colin could explore Seattle, and the city in June was a magical place, especially for lovers. Much as she’d adored Geraldine, Colin was a more exciting companion.

He insisted on going into an upscale department store to buy the clothes they’d need for the following day. He bought sensible things, a change of underwear and a cotton shirt, but he nagged her mercilessly until she ended up with a pair of designer jeans and a ridiculously expensive silk blouse that matched her eyes. Or so Colin said when she walked out of the dressing room wearing it.

He took part in choosing her underwear, too, and so naturally it was black lace. “Why do males have this thing about black lace?” she asked him after they left the lingerie department, each with their purchases in a snazzy bag with handles.

“Conditioning, I suppose.” He laced his fingers through hers as they strolled along the sidewalk toward Pike’s Place Market, where they planned to browse through some bookshops. “Black is the color of night, of mystery, of the forbidden.”

She laughed and swung her shopping bag back and forth, feeling carefree and slightly decadent. “I don’t remember forbidding anything to y’all. I’ve pretty much given the Laird of Glenbarra carte blanche.”

“And I hope you know that I don’t take that lightly, especially considering…”

“I know. And I appreciate it.” Her heart softened. Colin had his flaws, but at his core he was inherently decent.

“You’d have every right to forbid me everything, and yet, generous female that you are, you haven’t.”

“Don’t give me too much credit. I’m getting something out of the arrangement, too.”

“I hope so.” He lifted her hand and dropped a gentle kiss on the inside of her wrist.

She shivered in delight. The Laird of Glenbarra did have a boatload of charm. “You’ve fascinated me since the moment you walked through the door of Whittier House.”

“And I was fascinated with you from the beginning, too. You were the prettiest Were I’d ever seen, and your laughter was balm to my soul.”

“I’m glad.” She was so unused to getting compliments from male Weres that each one Colin gave her seemed like a glittering jewel presented in a velvet box.

They reached the market, a covered row of shops and stalls selling everything under the sun, it seemed. Fish, vegetables, flowers, New Age products, antiques, crafts—Luna was on sensory overload. And somewhere in this visual kaleidoscope was a bookstore. Colin had looked it up.

“What was everyone laughing about that morning, anyway?” he asked. “I meant to ask you that before.”

“It was…” She was embarrassed to think how stupid that conversation had been, but at the time, they’d all been so tense that everything had seemed funny. “It was nothing.”

“Ah, come on, Luna.” He squeezed her hand. “Let me in on the joke.
