"Quite certain." He kissed her fingertips. "I am also certain that Kiki is going to elope with Olaf the same way Charles took to destiny's road with Philip."

"I am smitten with her former owner." He kissed her throat, then her soft mouth.
"Oh, you mean the hairy old thief I stole her from in Massilia?" she breathed against his lips.
"I mean my Liliane," Alexandre whispered. "Is she back?"
"She is back and she is going to give you a dozen girl babies....just like her." She kissed him lingeringly.

"Our lucky number." She drew him down again.
