My mother’s words echoed in my ear.
Well, that just sounds like fear, that’s what that sounds like.
I hugged him. “I know. And you’re right, a little space will go a long way. It’s good timing, too. I still need to make a show of sitting in the office so I can look over the house finances.”
A wave of tingles washed over me.
I’d asked Niamh about it like Austin had advised. When I sat at that desk, my first order of business would be to officially transfer the house to me. This wasn’t done by a deed, though. The transfer happened with a blood oath. The fate of Ivy House and my council would be magically tied to my life, and be my ultimate responsibility. If I failed in doing right by the house, I would die.
At least, that was what Niamh had said. I hadn’t asked any more about it. That had scared me right down to the ground. I’d need another moment to build up some courage to face that.
Clearly Austin wasn’t the only one afraid. Maybe we both just had to get over it.
Eventually.
I patted his chest as I pushed away. “Now let’s go welcome in the new people and hope the normal people of this house crew finally outweigh the strange.”
“That won’t ever happen.”
“One can dream.”
I barely heard him murmur, as though a thought to himself, “A guy certainly can.”

Try Sin & Chocolate
Check out Sin & Chocolate, the first book of the Washington Post & Amazon Charts bestselling series Demigods of San Francisco…
Some people are ordained for greatness…
Those people usually have a lot of drama in their life. Drama I happily do without. I live in a forgotten corner of nowhere for a reason: there is safety in anonymity. I have enough problems just trying to get by.
But when Kieran, a sinfully sexy demigod at the pinnacle of power, crashes into my life, suddenly my whole world is turned upside down.
He’s harboring a deadly secret, one that could destroy all he holds dear. He thinks I’m the key to his salvation, and he wants me to help him claim vengeance.
He also wants me with a passion that burns my body from the inside out.
To ignore him is impossible, but to give in to my desires, even for a night, would thrust me into danger I might not survive.
Remember what I said about drama? Now I’m in it up to my eyeballs, and I’m not sure if I should run…or fight.
