Book of Love
Nice to meet you.” Nova held out one hand in greeting.
    “You too.” Liam shook hands with Nova, then winked at Shiloh. “Good to see you again.”
    “And I thought we wouldn’t get another date until tomorrow.”
    Elijah grinned at her too, the expression lighting up his hard face. “We’re lucky men.”
    “Flatterer.” Still, it felt good, didn’t it? The attention? Both men gave her a thorough once-over, and Shiloh felt a little bad for Nova, who got brotherly smiles.
    Not bad enough to share these boys, though, which again, weird.
    She patted Nova’s shoulder, winked. “Pie?”
    “God, yes.”
    Shiloh hummed while she walked back to the counter and sliced a pie, adding dollops of whipped cream. She’d already made a pot of coffee too. “Would anyone prefer tea instead of coffee?”
    The three of them were head-to-head already, discussing things, but Liam lifted his head, shook it. “Coffee for me, lovely.”
    “I’d love some coffee too.” Elijah flashed her another brilliant smile.
    “I should have tea just to make you work,” Nova muttered, but she could tell the other woman wasn’t really upset.
    She flipped Nova off but winked, pouring out four mugs. When she started around the counter with the tray, Liam hopped up to get the pie and lighten the load.
    “Thank you.”
    “Anytime, lovely.”
    Flirt. He was a stunning man, freckles on his nose, bright green eyes flashing pure devil.
    She wanted to touch him. More than that, she wanted to see him and Elijah in bed. Together. With her, sure, but the idea of those two big male bodies rubbing together, writhing… Her mouth went dry, her nipples hard.
    She glanced up and they were both looking at her, staring. Oh, damn it. Her cheeks heated, her body going hot all over.
    Nova cleared her throat. Loudly.
    “Sorry. Sorry, I’ll hand out the coffees. Daydream.”
    “Uh-huh.” Nova gave her a knowing look.
    “Shut up.” She could feel her cheeks heating. Shiloh set out the coffees, then sat with them, pushing her hair back off her face.
    “So, anyway, Shiloh was watching the bookstore and found the book.”
    They both glanced at her again, this time with clear speculation.
    “It was just a big book. I was bored.” Horny. The horned guy had been so hot with his giant penis. The look of hunger in his eyes.
    “Did that particular book call to you for a reason?” Elijah asked.
    “It was there. It was within reach.”
    “Nothing else? Nothing weird before you opened it?”
    “No, but after, it wouldn’t stop. I couldn’t get rid of it.”
    Liam’s gaze sharpened, his lips pursing. “Tell me about what happened.”
    “Nothing, really. I mean, I took it home, read it.” Masturbated later in the tub while imagining that hard cock between my legs.
    Elijah’s eyes pinned her to the spot, his nose working, an animal scenting prey. Oh, God, he couldn’t know what she was thinking, right?
    No. No, of course not. Couldn’t know about her fingers working her clit in tiny circles, her fingers slipping into her pussy.
    Liam had stopped, coffee mug halfway to his mouth, his body all but vibrating.
    “Are you guys okay?” Nova looked from one of them to another.
    “Uh-huh.” Elijah finally looked away. “Did you read anything aloud?”
    “I… I don’t remember. Maybe? I was… Have you been in the Minotaur? Breathing the air is hallucinogenic.”
    Liam laughed, breaking some of the amazing tension in the air. “It is that. Elijah hasn’t met Bella yet.”
    “Oh, you’ll get it when you go in. Whoa. It makes you silly.”
    “It would make sense, though, if you did read something aloud. That gives the words more power than just reading them normally.”
    “Maybe? I mean, I was…” hot and bothered and touching myself, “…distracted.”
    “I bet.” Nova chuckled, making her blush.
    “Be nice, now. How do I fix it?”
    “We’ll have to see what it is, first,” Elijah murmured. “It can’t actually be a god. They just don’t
