Chapter 15

HER STOMACH CLENCHING WHEN RYAN QUERIED HER about dream mating as he drove her to the hospital, Carol worried that maybe he believed in such a thing and was searching for the woman of his dreams. And she wasn’t it.

Still startled, she stared at him in disbelief. “Do you?”

“Of course not. But I wondered if you did.”

“Oh.” Her stomach unclenched several degrees. She thought about the stories Lelandi had told her and nodded. “Sure. Lelandi and Darien were dream mated. I didn’t know such a thing could exist until I heard of their case. Why bring it up?”

Ryan remained silent, and Carol huffed. “You tantalize me with some tidbit of news and then don’t share it with me? What if I were to do that with you? Say that you wouldn’t believe the vision I had this morning, but then not tell you what it was.”

“Did you?”

She paused and then let out her breath. “I’m not sure if it was the drug or what, but I saw a golden room and brilliant lights spilling into it from another room. I was drawn to the lights, as if I didn’t have any choice. And then shots were fired, and I heard…” She thought for a moment. Ryan glanced at her. She continued, “I heard Sam shouting. Then more shots rang out. So what brought on this dream mating query all of a sudden?”

Frowning, Ryan tapped his thumbs on the steering wheel and didn’t answer her for some time. Then he said, “Was the golden room a premonition of something to come, Carol?”

“It might have been nothing more than the effect of the drug.”

“Think carefully. You heard shots in the vision? Before Sam shouted?”

“The gunfire might have been outside of the vision. I might have heard it as I was envisioning the room.”

“No,” he said, his voice dark. “Shots rang out after Sam hollered. That’s why they fired in his direction. At the sound of his voice. No gunfire sounded before that.”

Carol considered the implications. Not good. She would be in a room headed toward another filled with bright lights where someone was shooting. Why would she do that?

“What are you thinking, Carol?” He reached over to squeeze her ice-cold hand. His hand felt warm and large and secure.

“The room means danger.”

“Then you’re not going there.” He glanced at her and continued to hold her hand.

“Right.”

He didn’t say anything for half a mile and then let out his breath. “Okay, so what happens in the room?”

“I don’t know. That’s what’s so frustrating about my visions. I don’t know what happens. What about your dream mating inquiry?” Carol watched him, chewing her lower lip. Had he dreamed of her? She was fairly sure she hadn’t dreamed of him, and she was certain she would have remembered.

“Tom said he was waiting for the woman who would reach out to him in his dreams.” Ryan glanced at her. “I thought you should know.”

“Ah.” Which meant that if Ryan wasn’t the one for her, she’d have to scratch Tom off her list, too.
