His jaw sets, and he cocks his head, sitting back. “Go on.”
I fill him in some more about my not-dinner with Lucien.
“I wondered why you got home so early,” he murmurs. I bet you did, Wolf.
“I want to know if I have the thing that my mother has. And if I do, I really need to know that I’m not going to hurt anyone with it.”
“Oh-kay…”
“Would you be willing to let me try it with you? And you tell me how you’re feeling while I do it?”
“Oh,” he brightens. “Sure.”
“There’s a risk…”
He raises a hand. “I was in service, remember. I know about risk. And I’ve been experimented on.”
I sit, facing Wolf. “I don’t know what it is that tunes me into the start of it. What opens the door, is it some kind of an emotional pitch? I don’t know.”
“Do you want to try meditation?”
“That’s a good idea.”
I pick a meditation mix to put on the speaker.
For about twenty minutes, I try looking into Wolf’s eyes. All kinds of nice things happen inside me. But no spooky connections.
I say, “Can we try with our eyes closed?”
He smiles and lets his lids close. Wolf has ridiculously sexy, hooded eyes.
I think about ten minutes have passed. Nothing happened. I have an idea.
“Maybe if we chant or something, I’ll tune into a vibration.”
“Should we try it in Katmandu, maybe?”
“Wolf!”
“Seriously. My sexy wildcat lawyer lioness woman is melting into a hippie before my eyes.”
“Can we just try?”
He smiles. I feel the warmth from across the room.
The rumble of Wolf’s voice fires me up inside. “Okay.”
But we can’t.
Someone’s banging on my door.
I’m thinking it must be a neighbor. Someone in the building. Otherwise, how would they be here?
I open the door.
It’s not a neighbor.
