Riley closed her eyes and let the heat of
the water engulf her tired muscles. Resting her head against the bath pillow,
she cleared her mind. The steam seeped out from the bubbles and swirled around
the room. Soon the mirror and windows were fogged and a scented mist surrounded
the bathroom, creating a relaxing atmosphere. A week’s worth of sleepless
nights had taken their toll and Riley drifted off.
The
squeak of the faucet and the silence that followed distracted her tranquil
thoughts. She opened her eyes to find him sitting on the edge of the tub
looking at her. For a moment, she felt self-conscious. She glanced down and
discovered her body covered in thick, white bubbles. He couldn’t see anything
but the tops of her shoulders, neck, and face.
“Sorry,”
he said. “I was afraid the water would overflow.”
“Am
I awake?”
He
shook his head. She noted his green eyes sparkled even in the dim lighting of
the bathroom.
“Well,
then how—”
“It’s
complicated.” His thin, pink lips formed a small smile. “I can’t explain now.”
“Why
not?”
“There
isn’t enough time to make you understand while you’re in your current state. We
need much more time. You can get that for us.”
“Are
you real or am I crazy?”
“I’m
very real, just stuck between realms. I’ve been waiting for you for a long
time.” He slid off the side of the tub and knelt down on the floor. “I’m afraid
I can’t stay very long. I keep trying to figure out how to increase the length
of my visits but nothing seems to work.”
“I
don’t know you.”
“You
will.” He reached for the clip in her hair. “May I?”
She
nodded.
Once
he’d freed her hair from its confines, he smoothed the damp locks out with his
hand. “I like when you wear it down. It’s so pretty.” He continued to stroke
her hair. “You’re just as beautiful as I remember.”
“How
do you know me?” She shifted her position to face him. She breathed in his
crisp scent. He smelled of spice, maybe a hint of cinnamon.
“I…”
He trailed off when his gaze caught her exposed breasts. He looked lost in a
distant memory.
When
she’d turned to face him she’d upset the bubbles shielding her. Her nipples
hardened as she watched him take in her flesh. She no longer felt embarrassed.
“I
have to go.”
“You
keep leaving me. I don’t like it.” Each time he left, he took a small piece of
her with him.
“That’s
why you need to find me.” He leaned forward. “I know you can. You’re very
powerful.” He brushed his lips against her mouth. A rush of warmth coursed
through her and settled between her legs. “Find me, Riley.” He kissed the
corner of her mouth, lingering a second longer than usual. She took the
opportunity to run her tongue along his soft lips. “Find me now.”
“How?”
She wanted more than anything to find this man. “What do I need to do?”
“Tucker…”
he whispered.
“What?”
Riley slipped off the bath pillow and under
the cold water. She quickly sat up and looked around. The bubbles had
evaporated into the freezing water.
Did she turn the faucet off? Or did…
I
must be crazy.
She thought for a moment. Her mystery man
had left her a big clue tonight. Now she needed to figure out what Tucker
Sparrow had to do with any of this. It looked as if she would be paying a visit
to a man she hadn’t seen in a decade.
