Falling asleep last night was next to impossible, but I managed to get a few hours of rest before meeting Saban for our all-day adventure. He’s already waiting in the kitchen when I walk in to have breakfast.

“Good morning, princess. Sleep well?”

“I was too excited to sleep.” That’s not a lie. It’s just not the entire truth. “But don’t worry. I’m more than ready to go exploring with you today.”

“Your eyes—they’re glowing purple even more than usual. They’re mesmerizing.” He stands and walks toward me as if he’s entranced, not moving his gaze from mine.

I shrug nonchalantly, eager to change the subject. “I’m happy. I can’t wait to see what the day has in store for us.”

We eat breakfast together, then he ushers me out of the house, pulling me toward the barn. He glances over his shoulder and rewards me with his perfect smile. Those steel-gray eyes darken with mischief and secrets.

“Are you ready?”

“More than ready. Are we flying today?” I’m giddy with excitement.

“Yes, we sure are. I remember how much you loved it, so I thought we’d head out alone. We had too many people with us last time.”

“I couldn’t agree more.”

Saban’s horse is saddled and ready to go when we walk inside the elaborate barn. “Do you want to ride with me, or do you want your own?”

“I’ll ride with you this time. Next time, I’ll take off on my own.”

“Perfect. I was secretly hoping you’d say that. I like having you close to me.”

He climbs up on the horse then helps me up to ride behind him. With my arms around his waist and my chest pressed against his back, we take off for our secret destination. When we’re high above the earth, I tighten my legs around the horse and stretch my arms out to the sides and let the wind flow through my fingers. I can so clearly envision myself flying without the help of the horse, I’d swear it was real.

He takes the long route so we can enjoy the scenic view from above. His trusty steed carries us with no effort at all. We circle a large open field at the edge of the Easthaven Crest northern border with Elderwater Basin before coming in for a landing. The edge of the forest is the backyard of a beautiful English cottage. The front yard is a vast, multiacre lake with crystal-clear water.

“Saban…wow. I’m speechless.” I turn in a slow circle, trying to absorb all the beauty surrounding me.”

“I’m glad you like it. This is my secret home away from home. I come here to relax and recharge after the crowds at court suck the life out of me. No one knows about this place, except you.” He tucks his finger under my chin and gently lifts my face to meet his gaze. When his lips touch mine, a surge of heat floods my body. Stronger than before. More urgency and need are embedded in our sensual embrace. Every nerve ending inside me is exposed and overloaded with desire.
