Something more sinister than evil threatened them …
“Has this Seline of yours come up with any answers
about the soul sucker?”
“No, but it’s obviously an extremely ancient spirit
we’re chasing, which means they have to go through all
the old texts that have not yet been transcribed to
computer. It takes time.”
“Time we haven’t got.”
“I know that. Gran knows that. Even Seline knows
that.” She hesitated and he tensed, knowing her question
even before she asked, “Why do you keep running,
Ethan? What are you afraid of?”
“I’m not running. I’m not doing anything more than
simply enjoying a moment.”
“And that’s all we are? A moment?”
He closed his eyes. “Yes.”
“Are you sure of that?”
“Yes.”
The swirl of emotions that had surrounded him died
abruptly. It was if some door he couldn’t see had slammed
shut. The sudden stillness felt cold. Lonely.
“You’re wrong, you know.” Her voice was soft,
detached. With the emotive eddy locked down, he couldn’t
read what she was feeling, but in many respects, he didn’t
need to.
“No, I’m not.” Because he’d given his heart long ago,
and there was nothing left to him now but moments. “I
warned you before we started this that I wanted nothing
more than a good time. Nothing we share is going to
change my mind.”
No matter how good it felt. No matter how right.

With love, as always, to my family.
