She finger-combed her hair back from her face, feeling the kind of bone-deep fatigue that she hated. Leigh—the woman who Dylan had worked so hard to rescue, the keystone to their plan to find at least some of the elementals responsible for attacking the hotel housing the air elemental complement—was on the couch in the living room, resting. In spite of Dylan’s successful efforts to reverse the effects of her imprisonment, the woman was exhausted, and Aira couldn’t exactly blame her.“Do you want a foot massage, Aira?” Aira opened her eyes to the sight of Aiden, his pajama pants barely clinging to his hips, his chest bare, and his hair still damp from the shower he had taken the moment they had gone upstairs. “I’d rather have a bath, but right now I’m afraid that I’d fall asleep and drown.” Aiden snorted, sitting down on the bed next to her. “I could join you,” he suggested hopefully. “I’m pretty good at keeping you awake.” Aira smiled in spite of the exhaustion she felt and let herself fall backwards onto the mattress, sighing. After Dylan had gone into the safe house, Aiden had managed to call in the bounty hunters who had been set on the trail of the same group of elementals—all of whom were happy to lend their aid.
