up.” Garth’s voice reached Faye.
    Jai managed to catch her eye. “That probably goes without saying. We’ll have to ask Faye more about her friend.”
    “I’d love to chat about it later.” She smiled.
    While the two men had a rather staged conversation about threesomes, Faye watched.
    The men’s presence here attracted the spirit by the looks of it, and she moved towards them with anticipation, craning her neck as if to get a better look. There was a fondness in her eyes, and as she passed Garth, she moved her fingers around his shoulders, not quite touching him, but the desire to do so was there. Then she moved closer to Jai and studied him from one side.
    For Faye it was blatantly obvious how interested the ghost was in the two men.
    Despite everything that happened at once, Faye found that amusing. She could hardly blame the woman, after all. Perhaps the presence of the two attractive men also accounted for why it took the ghost a few moments to notice the third person in the room. When she did, she glanced quickly at Faye, pursed her lips as if annoyed, and returned her attention to Jai. Then she paused and looked again, and her eyes rounded. She gripped her hand against her chest as if in fright.
    Oh yes, now you see it, don’t you . Faye nodded her head in the direction of the ghost, holding the ethereal spirit’s gaze.
    The ghost, however, was so startled that her lips moved in a silent curse and she completely evaporated from view a moment later.
    “Damn.” Faye sat back in her chair. The ghost had quickly developed a case of annoyance or shyness when she realised she was being watched. It was often the way. The spirits she encountered were initially startled that she could see them and communicate with them.
    Faye felt an echo of the frustration and shock the ghost had felt. Such was her psychic link with the spirits she encountered. Meanwhile, the men were attempting to carry on their stilted conversation about threesomes, which hooked her just as badly.
    “Two women?” Jai shook his head. “It doesn’t have to be. It depends on the chemistry and the set up, more than anything.”

    FAYE’S SPIRIT

    “I agree.” Faye interjected. “She’s gone now.” She rose to her feet. “You were right, it’s a woman, from the sixties if I’m not mistaken, and she’s fascinated by what’s going on here.”
    “Aren’t we all,” Jai commented in a low, suggestive tone.
    Faye arched an eyebrow. “I meant she’s fascinated by the new residents, not the talk of threesomes.”
    “Shame,” he murmured, watching her from under heavy lids.
    Boy, was that a sexy glance. “You’re so bad,” she shot back.
    What with the adrenaline rush she got from interacting with the ghost, and the three-way arousal simmering in the atmosphere, she felt electrified by the adventure. She stepped across the kitchen, heading for the corridor where the ghost had disappeared.
    As she passed, Jai reached out and grasped her hand, drawing her to a halt. “It’s not just the ghost you’re interested in, is it?”
    Faye’s arousal flared. She felt light-headed from the rush of energy all around her, both paranormal and physical. Thrown by his directness, she struggled for a response. “Well, I am here to sort out your ghost problem.” Both men watched her avidly. You can do better than that , she told herself. Be brave. “Although I’m just as intrigued by other things here too.”
    With that she pulled her hand free and headed into the darkness of the corridor, following the path the ghost had taken.
    Two chairs scraped against the kitchen floor behind her and both men were quickly on her heels.
    Faye’s self-awareness level ticked higher still. This had turned out to be more interesting than any other commission she’d had. She took a deep, steadying breath then reached up and ran her hands along the wooden banisters on the staircase in the hallway, trying to sense if the
