Chapter 17

THAD

Alyssa stands the second we walk in, and Roslyn tucks herself against my side. I can’t even begin to explain the relief I felt the second I saw Jenny’s car at that gas station. I was inside before Zee, but I just stared at her when I finally found her, unable to fully comprehend that she was safe and standing right in front of me.

And she didn’t have a fucking clue what was going on.

I still don’t know if her memory is wiped, or if she feels crazy for believing all that she’s seen. I think it’s the latter of the two, and she refuses to accept it as reality. I do, however, fully believe that she has no memory during the times she’s in changed form or using her with powers.

“You couldn’t have let me get some clothes?” Roslyn whispers at my side.

Alyssa battles a smile, and eventually covers it.

“The toga looks good on you,” I tell her, giving her a wink that has a blush creeping up on her. I’m gonna miss the hell out of that. She’ll change once she remembers everything.

But I’m going to love getting to know the real Roslyn.

“Wait,” Roslyn says, her eyes sparking with recognition. “You’re Alyssa Ice—the one I bought the house from.”

Alyssa nods before handing her a change of clothes. Well damn. I wanted to keep her in the sheet. It’d be easier to strip off once Alyssa is done restoring her to normal. And I will be stripping it off her by then.

“I am,” Alyssa tells her as Roslyn accepts the clothes.

“I have clothes at my house,” Roslyn says sheepishly, looking down as she scoots even closer against me. I hope she continues to do that even after she knows who she is.

“You can wear those until you have your own,” Alyssa says with her soft smile.

Roslyn clutches them against her, eyeing Alyssa then looking down. Roslyn’s hips are a little bigger, but I’m sure Alyssa has already made sure they fit her perfectly—magic is a great thing.

She looks up at me with those oddly violet eyes—eyes a shade darker than that of a black widow. She’s unique in every possible way.

“There’s a room upstairs on the left. Use it,” I tell her, kissing her forehead softly before she leans back.

She seems hesitant, but she finally moves toward the stairs, and I motion with my head for Alyssa to follow me outside of the soundproof glass.

“Kimber will be up there. She’ll get you something to drink. I just need to speak with Thad about some work stuff,” Alyssa calls out.

Roslyn’s voice is muffled, but we hear her say something that resembles an okay and a thank you.

“I take it her hearing is amped up?” Alyssa asks me as we shut the door.

“Yeah. I think that’s why she ran last night, even though she thinks it was all a dream. I didn’t put that together until after I figured out who she really was. She’s strong, so it’d make sense that she could hear almost as well as us.
