North American Vampire Council & Past Calling (Hypernaturals 12 & 13)

Now This

I road to the camp with Denise, so before we loaded cars to go home, I pulled Morgan aside.

"What?" she asked curiously.

"We just settled on our new home plan, and now this. You OK with the new sleeping arrangement?" I asked so that only she could hear.

"The one where DeWayne and Carol are upstairs over the old garage and a tippy-toe away? Or the one where Denise is in our bed full time?" Morgan asked.

"The second one. Danny and Lori are a tippy-toe away too." I pointed out.

Morgan looked over at the Jeep where Denise is waiting. "I am going to have to get used to having another spouse sooner than I thought." She finally said.

"Nothing was said about marriage." I pointed out.

"Do not be silly, my lovely partner in all things. We all know what is coming, and this will move her along. The same as Jessica asking me all the time, and you going missing did me. Does not matter. Jessica needs to be protected from Cert, and if I have to marry Denise, Anne, Nico, Carol, and DeWayne and wash all of their undies to keep her safe, I will." Morgan said.

"Fair enough. But Morgan: you tell me when you want alone time. That just got more important than ever." I said.

"You, my dearest, will never be in doubt." Morgan smiled and headed to the Honda.

Anne is riding back in that vehicle too. All the luggage is in the Jeep. No room in the Honda.

Jessica, Angel, and Vera have their protective detail. Oddly, I am sure after that encounter in the woods I am safer than they are. Cert is that evil.

Morgan stopped. Looked back. "I will kill her. Cert. So you know."

I smiled. Morgan hates killing as much as I do.

"Race ya." I replied.

"You will lose, my heart." Morgan promised and turned to go get into the over-occupied Honda.
