naked and him inside her. The faerie, Cody, had been trying to keep him centered since they had arrived. “I believe the mistress is beginning to make decisions with the house on her own.” He asked him where she was. “Three rooms down. She’s been in there for some time now.”

“Look. I need to spend some alone time with CJ. I mean, we need to bond.” Cody told him that would be a good thing. “Then pardon me for being rude, but you need to leave. Now. And take the other faeries with you. I promise you, I’ll pay more attention after today.”

“Yes, my lord.” He could tell that Cody was struggling not to laugh. Don turned away when the need to laugh too caught him off guard. “I’ll make sure you’re not disturbed for…I was going to say until tomorrow, but you call out to me if you’re in need of something else. I’ll take care that the bedroom is romantic for the two of you.”

When he left him, Don wondered which room the master bedroom was. He’d missed it someplace along the line and hated that. However, watching Cody and the three faeries that had been with them all morning enter one of the rooms, he made a note of it. Don did wonder if romantic for a faerie was the same as romantic for a human or shifter. He’d find out, he supposed.

Finding CJ didn’t prove as easy as he’d thought it would be. It occurred to him as he opened all the doors that there were a lot of bedrooms in this house. Someone might have told him at one point, but his mind wasn’t centering well. When he found her in the bathroom at the end of the hall, she looked like she was thinking hard on something. Don asked her if he could help her.

“This room looks off. Like it’s not right.” He didn’t know what she meant, so he tried to figure it out as she went on to explain. “The walls are too close. Like the wall with the shower in it is out of proportion to what you’d think. Am I making sense?”

“I get it now. Let me look on the other side of this.” He went into the hall and then back in the room with her. “You’re right. It’s like there should be about five or so more square feet than is showing. You think there is something behind this wall?”

“I don’t know. But even if it’s only blank space, it would be nice to have this room enlarged, don’t you think? I mean, it’s not really crowded, but it would be nice for the extra room.” He knocked on the wall, listening to see if he could figure out something. Calling out for Cody, he figured that if anyone could get to the other side, it would be a faerie. CJ asked the little man if he could figure it out for them. “I just want to know what is behind here. Please don’t tell me if there are dead bodies piled up. We just bought this house, and I don’t want a crime scene here.”

Cody nodded and disappeared. When he returned, he looked at him first, then at CJ. They were both a little nervous when it took him so long to get around to answering them. Cody looked back at him.

“I don’t know what it is. You could see, can you not? Go into the room beyond here?” He’d honestly never thought of doing it himself. So willing himself to the other room, he looked around for several minutes before he figured it out. Laughing hard, he went to where CJ and Cody were. “It’s nothing I’m familiar with, my lord. I am sorry.”

“It’s fine, Cody. It took me a few seconds as well to—”

“If you two are done, I’d like to know what the fuck it is. What the hell is on the other side that you had to laugh about?” Instead of telling her, he wrapped her into his arms and took her. “Oh, Don. It’s beautiful.”

It was too. Even as dirty as it was, cobwebs hanging from everything, it was lovely. He wondered why anyone would have done such a thing to such a wonderful space. The windows were from floor to ceiling and boarded up from the outside. They went all the way around the space to provide light for the plants that had been left behind to die. There was a mural on the ceiling, as well as stone on the floor that he bet was beautiful too. He could just imagine someone taking a long soak in a tub and being able to see the windows filled with plants.

“I want this opened up.” He said he did as well. When she put her fingers into one of the long-dead plants’ containers, the plant began to green up. The leaves appeared and unfurled so that the entire plant, a fig tree, came back to life within seconds. She touched the other plants as well. “Will you mind if I have the faeries fix this up for us? I so want to be able to look into this room and see all of this. It’s nothing I would have imagined it would be, and I love it.”

Cody joined them in the room a few seconds after CJ called for him. The little man, knowing what his mistress wanted, was vibrating with excitement to do this for them. The windows were uncovered first. The room flooded with light.

“Once we have this cleaned up, my lady, it will be simply the most beautiful bathing room in the world. I think I should like to have myself a little space in here as well. I would love that.” She told him he could so long as she wasn’t bathing at the time. “Oh no. I’d not do that to either of you. No. Just when I have a few minutes, it would restore me in
