I glanced over at the spot Vance had been lying on, wondering about his reaction.

I also wondered what I was going to do about Cassoon and Lucifer.

Wiltone appeared in the spot Vance had been. She looked at me with dangerously innocent eyes, which meant she was up to no good.

“Feeling better after the make-out session?” she asked.

Actually, I was. But it had nothing to do with what happened between Vance and me. Whatever accelerated reaper healing I had was on in full force. I was no longer in pain, and my feet were almost back to normal.

“You shouldn’t have put your passion whammy on Vance,” I said.

“I didn’t.”

When I was about to protest, she stated, “I swear I didn’t. I was too busy with Cassoon. But if I hadn’t been, Vance would still be here unable to keep his hands off of you.”

“Then it was the claim.”

She shook her head. “I think the claim is gone. I can’t sense it in you anymore.”

“Maybe Cassoon is somehow masking it.”

“No, the claim is gone, and I didn’t put my love whammy on Vance. He has feelings for you.” She sighed happily. “He’s so dreamy.”

I groaned. “Forget Vance. We’ve got bigger problems.”

The problem was I couldn’t forget him. And, yes, Vance was dreamy. But he was also not over the past, and neither was Lawson. They were still in a battle over Elizabeth. And it was a battle I didn’t want to be involved in.

“Tell me about Cassoon,” I said.

“Why don’t you meet him,” Wiltone suggested.

“He tried to bite my head off. I really don’t want to meet him.”

“You’ll love him. Come on out, Cassoon.”

A light-green puffball appeared on the bed between Wiltone and me. His rounded emerald eyes looked as if they were pleading for treats. Four little paws stuck out from a massive amount of fur.

“This is Cassoon?” I asked.

Wiltone nodded. “Just keep your feelings for Vance and Lawson under lock and key, and Cassoon will stay like this.”

“How did that giant four-headed monster turn into this furball?” He was barely the size of a softball.

“All the stones have their own shapes. Cassoon can shape shift at will.”

“Do you know what shape Basole the Black takes?” I asked.

She shook her head. “No.”

If an angry Cassoon came out with four snarling heads, how much worse would Basole the Black be, especially in the hands of Azrael?

Cassoon rolled on the bed, his paws raised up to the ceiling as he looked at me. Did he want a belly rub?

“Does he eat?” I asked.

“He doesn’t need to.”

Hesitantly, I reached out to pet him. He rolled back to his feet as if on guard. But just as I was going to pull my hand back, he raced over and pounced on it. Light as a foam ball, I picked him up and smiled.

“He’s adorable.”

“For now,” Wiltone warned.

“I’ll be careful.”

I’d just have to avoid contact with Vance and Lawson.

“You are so sweet,” I said as I set him back down on the bed.

Cassoon frolicked on the covers.
