CHAPTER 9

Seamus

I stared at the back of her head for ten solid minutes, too afraid to move and discover this was a nightmare instead of a dream. Sometime in my sleep I’d taken what I really wanted.

I was wrapped around Florence.

She was asleep in my arms. Her soft pants of breath danced along my forearm. Her hair spilled against my chest. My legs were molded to the backs of hers. Then there was the very hard, very present problem throbbing between us. I needed to move and tame the damn beast, but the last thing I wanted to do was let this end.

We could have this. All the time. Every night and every morning.

It was my new goal. Not that it hadn’t been for the last three years, but the goal posts shifted depending on whether she was speaking to me. Sometimes that was the only goal—sentences without anger.

But this? This was the ultimate goal.

My dick saluted this idea, so I carefully peeled myself away before she felt how much I wanted her and started World War Three. After a few adjustments and deep breaths, I slipped out the door, stopping to pet the head of the dog who’d followed us home last night. The shaggy scamp agreed to stand watch and I told him to keep it up until I got back.

There were dozens of dogs, cats, ferrets, and other various small vermin living down here. Most kept to the shadows like I did. I was aware of them all, and pulled on that resource as I moved about the Underground. To the samhain here they were mostly just animals. Something to ignore. A few were pets. Others were entertainment. Some just tagged along for the ride as animals had always done since the beginning of time.

But for me it was an advantage. I felt when they were wary, when they were excited, when they ran for their lives. Dogs, in particular, were useful since they were quite intelligent, understood emotions, and had a strong sense of loyalty. The scamp by the door would let me know if anything went wrong.

It only took me ten minutes to track down coffee and blood souffles. A real blood souffle. Ever since they started letting humans sniff around, they’d been adding more human friendly fare to the offerings. The human-safe version was disgusting and didn’t contain any fresh samhain blood.

Gross.

So I had a real one for me and a human one for Florence, since she was still on a blood-free diet. That irked me. No, it pissed me off. The only reason she hadn’t jumped into her samhain life with both feet was because of me. She could blame it on a lot of reasons, but at the end of the day, this endless feud between us was the reason she lived with one foot out in the human world.

Shoshanna’s death was a waste of a life, but I would get some good out of it. One way or another, this time I spent with my Firecracker would end with her happiness.
