“What?”
“Renee was the one who told him.”
“Your wife?” Natalie was so surprised.
“Yup. My wife. She seems to be everywhere.”
“Are we supposed to go to Neil’s place right now?”
He shook his head. “No. Neil can’t do anything until after the day’s sleep. He has to make contact with the wizard then set up the meet, but he wanted to clear it with us first. He’ll let us know the timing which will be sometime later tonight.”
She could see he was uncomfortable with something that had nothing to do with Neil or his wizardry. “It’s Renee, isn’t it, that she’s here?”
His turn to sigh. “It’s made me miss her all over again, yet here I am with you and damn, I want to make love to you.”
In her heart of hearts, Natalie knew Renee wouldn’t object to what she was about to do. In fact, given Renee’s earthy quality and that she had truly loved Grant, she’d want it for him, for both of them.
Natalie caressed the side of Grant’s neck then leaned up and kissed him. “Your Renee, like Aaron, were wonderful people. But both are ghosts now and Renee is here to help, maybe even to make sure we survive. She’s not going to mind what we do, which leads me to this. Will you spend the day with me here, in my home? I want to be with you more than life itself right now.”
