what?” Liam cleared his throat. “How did that happen?”
    “Nym stopped by today. Wait, that was yesterday now. Anyway, he came by my apartment to share some information.”
    “Already? He works fast, but this is a record even for him.”
    “It sounded like things just fell into place.”

    Liam resumed pouring the water over my back and I told him what Nym passed along about the wolf king.
    “He’s right about him being a nice guy. I didn’t realize Marco was in town.”
    “You know each other?”
    “We’ve met before. Come here,” he said, pulling me back against him. “I need to wash your hair too.”
    I leaned back against his chest, enjoying the way his body felt next to mine. His cock was pressed against my lower back, but he wasn’t aroused. Still, I could hear his heart beating fast as I turned to put my face against his chest. Liam bent forward, propping his cheek on my forehead. When he wrapped his arms around me, I couldn’t believe how natural it felt.
    “When did you see Nym’s thoughts?” he asked.
    “When he went to leave. He mentioned something about my hair and when he touched my face I saw everything he’d done the night before.” The memories came flooding back to me in graphic detail and I tried to keep my body from reacting so strongly. “Maybe it’s because I’ve been lonely, but it’s been driving me crazy ever since.
    I mean I saw everything.”
    For whatever reason, Liam chose not to comment on this. Instead he picked up the bowl again and using one hand to keep the water from my eyes, started to wash my hair. This was incredibly relaxing. Having the warm water running over my scalp while his hand was pressed against my forehead nearly put me to sleep. Being next to him was definitely a thrill. However, there was something in his touch that soothed me as well.
    “I feel so safe with you,” I sighed.
    “You are.”
    “Good, because I can’t believe I met you a few days ago and we’re already naked.” His laugher rumbled beneath my ear.
    “I feel better now,” I said.
    “Confession is good for the soul.”
    “Well, I’ve certainly confessed enough.”
    “I think you’re ready for the potion.”
    I pulled back to look at him. “Really?” I knew I had to take it, but I didn’t want the relaxing bath to end. Not to mention I was really enjoying being pressed against him.
    “Unless there’s something else you want to confess?” he teased.
    Oh, like using a true love spell to see if you would show up? “Nope. Nothing else.” We got out of the tub and after drying off Liam said, “You don’t have to get dressed if you don’t want to.”
    My expression must have told him how surprised I was.

    “After you take the potion, you will sleep for several hours. I thought you might be more comfortable naked.”
    “And where will I sleep?” Something told me I wouldn’t have time to get back to my place.
    He shrugged. “In my bed, of course.”
    “Of course.”
    He laughed at my sarcasm.
    “I don’t have to sleep with you.”
    “I wouldn’t mind.” Why was it I couldn’t stop myself from telling him the truth so bluntly? Was it something to do with his magic?
    “Great, because I have to be honest, I could use the rest.” I ran a hand through my short hair, feeling it slap against the back of my neck as I moved close to him.
    “I do believe there was a promise of ravishment?” His smile was wicked. “I haven’t forgotten.”
    I followed Liam into the bedroom, admiring the way the muscles of his long legs flexed with every step. He approached the magic circle and made a gesture as if opening a door.
    “You can enter the circle now,” he said.
    I stood beside him while Liam knelt down and stirred the potion. With a wooden ladle, he poured the silver mixture into a goblet.
    When he was finished he rose and handed me the cup.
    “You must drink it all,” he said.
    The potion had no smell and no taste. When I
