Falling in Love with the Man of My Nightmares (That's [Para]Normal #4)

by Camilla Evergreen

The door slams open before I get there, and I stop in place as the sound rattles the foundation of this whole place. Um. Crap. Maybe I should have called? “Kassandra,” he states, takes two steps to me, and cups my chin in his palm. “Uh. Hi.” “You smell like Castor.” My eye twitches. Double crap. I completely forgot Castor was in my bathroom this morning. At the very least, I flushed his phantom dust residue down the toilet? “Pardon me,” I say. “You could smell Castor on me from all the way inside your house?” He growls, “I am an evolved beast, Kassandra. Why have you met with Castor? Why has he touched your throat?” “I don’t know. He poofed himself into my bathroom this morning and asked me to lend him my powers. I told him to ask again once I knew what powers I even have, because then I might help him depending on the situation.” I shove the bee in his face. “You’re supposed to ask me why I’m holding an angry bee.” Taken aback, Pollux stares between the bee and me, opens his mouth, closes it. He composes himself enough to mutter, “I don’t know how the angry bee is relevant given the disturbing information you just provided. Castor should not be in contact with you, much less asking to use your magic.”
