Chapter 16

I reached up and caressed her cheek, "I know how that feels my love. Because I felt the same way. But I felt it before I ever meet you, I felt it the very first time that I saw you. And I saw you a little over a week before the night we met."

"Really? You were watching us for that long?"

"Yes I was."

"That must have been when I started feeling like I was being watched."

"I would imagine so baby."

She nodded. "Any way as I was saying, while on the shopping trip Victor will buy a necklace for you. He will put a spell on it, a lust spell. Which he plans to use to distract us and keep us from saving Lissa. So please do not put on or touch any jewelry that you don't already own or that I don't give you myself."

"Ok."

"If he gives it to me to give to you, I will show it to you. But I will wait until the day after the dance to actually give it to you. That way the charm that he puts on it will have run out before you ever touch it."

"What kind of charm?"

"As I said, a lust charm."

"Yes, but what kind of lust charm exactly? I mean what does it do?" She is far too innocent sometimes.

I smiled, "a lust charm does exactly as it sounds. It will cause our lust for each other to get out of control. But it would only work because we love each other so much, on top of how much we desire each other."

"How so?"

"If one of us were not strong enough to resist or break the spell then we would make love."

"Maybe we shouldn't try to resist, break or prevent it." She teased with a light laugh.

"You are a tease baby."

"And you love it."

I laughed, "yes I do. Very much so in fact."

She giggled. "Is that all that you can tell me tonight?"

"About that, yes. But I can tell you some other things if you want me to. Things about your father."

"Yes, please." She smiled radiantly.

"Alright, you know that I told you that people in Europe call him Zmey?"

She nodded.

"Well, the reason they do that is because your father is the mob boss of both Russia and Turkey. And he has a lot of contacts and control all over the world even with the humans."

"Wow, so not only am I a royal but I am also a mob princess?" She asked shock covering her face and filling her voice and eyes.

"Yes. And although you can't meet your father in person until after the New Year. You can talk to him over the phone, in texts, emails, facetime, skype and instant personal messages over the internet. Would you be interested in doing any of that?"

"You say that he loves me and that he wanted to keep me?"

"Yes. I called him right after I saw you in the lounge yesterday. As soon as he found out that you were here and that you needed him he jumped on a plane and made his way here as quickly as possible. He probably left within a half the hour of my call. Because the flight time from Turkey to Montana is usually almost thirteen hours, but he made it in about eleven." I reaffirmed, Abe's desire to be near her as soon as possible.

"Then yes, I would like to try that."

"Ok. He is in Missoula right now buying us a top of the line laptop and two new cell phones."
