Casey

It was a dream. It had to be a dream, because nothing in life could be as perfect as the days following that kiss in the grotto.

Her boldness continued to surprise her. She had never been so forward, so confident with anyone. Every touch seemed natural, easy. He had seemed so tentative at first, as if he couldn’t quite believe that she was taking the lead. Casey couldn’t quite believe it either. Never had she ever felt so...aroused? Attracted? Horny? She felt like she became a different woman when she was with Brady, a woman with no shame, no hesitation, no limits.

After making love in his office, Casey had felt slightly awkward with Brady at first. She had shown him a part of herself that she kept hidden away, even from herself. She didn’t know what might happen if they found themselves alone again. The intensity of what she had felt scared her a little. She needed time to process everything.

At night, Brady walked her to her quarters and gave her a brief kiss at the door. He didn’t ask to come in. He didn’t ask her to join him in his chambers. She knew he was holding back for her benefit as well as his, but it didn’t make things any easier. To distract herself, Casey found herself adjusting to Brady’s world quickly, shocked that she didn’t miss all the bells and whistles of 21st-century life. The last few years had been a marathon for her, between work and internships and classes. Being here with Brady, she felt as if she could finally catch her breath.

Living among shifters had a bit of a learning curve, but Casey eventually grew accustomed to communicating with them mind to mind. In human form, they generally spoke aloud, but most of the shifters preferred their natural forms. She knew that no matter how long she might live, she would never tire of watching a shifter change forms. She had no other word for it than magic.

Something about Brady was changing, too. The longer they were in his world, the more comfortable he seemed to be with expressing physical affection in small ways. He would stop what he was doing to give her a kiss on the cheek or touch the small of her back as he passed by. He seemed to be as confused as she was. More than once a day, they would catch each other’s eyes and everything else in the world would fall away. She knew that he was remembering their time together as vividly as she was.

But neither of them acted on it.

It frustrated Casey to no end. As much as she wanted to be cautious and take her time, she also wanted to make love to him again. She needed an answer about her own feelings: did she love him, or did she just lust after him?

Or both.

She found herself assisting the Queen and Alix with decorations for the Great Hall on the morning of the celebration. Garlands of exotic flowers Casey had never seen before draped the tables and walls.
