I miss coffee. The smell of it is still comforting. I wish I could taste it.

He'd gotten so used to her speaking into his mind already that he didn't even jump. "Would you like me to make some tonight? Can you eat and drink when you manifest?"

I can - but with only twenty minutes tonight, I don't want to waste any on food. Tomorrow maybe?

"Whatever you'd like. What are some of your favorite foods?"

Strawberries, but they're out of season now.

"I can get them at the grocery store. They're not as good as the ones grown locally, but they might be better than nothing. Anything else?"

Perhaps...a sip or two of champagne?

"No problem, sugar. Groceries are easy to get. If you think of anything else you want for later in the week, just let me know." Another thought occurred to him. "Can you leave the house? Would you like to go out for a little while on Halloween?"

Really? There was a pause, and he swore he heard a sniffle. Oh goodness, I didn't know I could cry when I was immaterial.

    Evie closed her eyes and hummed in delight. "Oh my goodness, this champagne is divine. Even better than I'd remembered. Thank you, Sam." She took another drink and rolled the liquid around in her mouth before swallowing.If Sam hadn't already been hard, he would have been after seeing that. All he could think of was seeing that expression on her face from having him make her come. And the remote possibility of seeing those plump lips wrapped around his aching cock.Not tonight. He held out a strawberry. "Now this."She bit daintily into the juicy berry and closed her eyes again. "Oh Sam. Thank you." He let her take it from his hand to finish it on her own.After another sip of champagne, he held out a tiny chunk of the chocolate. "My sisters swear this is the best on the planet." When her lips opened, he popped the whole square into her mouth.While she savored the morsel, Sam ate one of the berries and a sliver of chocolate. He wanted her to taste the same flavors on him when he

    Sam felt Evie's disappointed wail as much as he heard it in his mind."Aww, sweetie, don't cry. I'm right here, and we'll pick up tomorrow where we left off."But it felt so good, she told him. I ache, Sam. I didn't even know I could when I'm ethereal. But I hurt between my legs. It feels so empty."I know. I hurt too, believe me." He settled back on the bed and absently rubbed his thick erection with one hand while he licked the fingers of his other. Was he tasting her? "Tomorrow's another day. And yes, I'm licking your cream from my fingers. You taste like heaven. One night I'm going to lick your sweet pussy until you come, screaming my name. Tonight, we'll just have to take care of ourselves, won't we?"Evie didn't want to, but she needed that release she'd found the night before. She reached down between her legs and was stunned to find she was still clad in only her undergarments."I assumed so since your dress is still over on that chair," Sam said with a chuckle. "So you ge

    When Noel and Shelby called to invite him over for dinner, he begged off. Yes, he had to leave the house for shopping and to walk the puppy, but that was it, the limit of the time he was willing to spend away from Evie. He hummed a sultry jazz number as he drove to the store.Tonight he had forty-five whole minutes with a solid Evie.Though he enjoyed talking to her during the day, he was rapidly becoming addicted to being able to touch her at night. And tonight he had three-quarters of an hour to show her something new and exciting.He didn't intend to take her, it wasn't enough time for her first experience, but he did plan to make her come - hopefully more than once. His cock pulsed at the thought. Oh yeah, tonight Sam was going to make Evie scream, using his hands instead of her own.He ducked into a specialty store on his way to the grocery. One night this week he was going to introduce Evie to toys. He was so aroused at the thought, he had to sit and wait in the parking lot f

    Sam kissed his way down Evie's throat, pausing to suck at the graceful curve where her neck and shoulder met. He'd discovered in their brief session last night that she was sensitive there, so he lingered, arousing her to the point where her hands dug into his shoulders and her hips bucked against his. When he moved on, a small pink mark remained - he'd marked her, if only for a time. A thrill of possessive pride slithered up his spine, pushing any guilt aside."I don't mind," Evie said with a sultry drawl. "I may do the same to you."Sam chuckled and nipped playfully at her shoulder. "You can do whatever you want, my sexy little ghost. I'll happily wear any mark you want to give me. Though I'll have to watch what I'm thinking - it's kind of weird having a lover who can read my mind.""So don't think bad things," she teased, grinding her hips against his. For someone with no experience, she sure knew exactly what to do to drive him crazy. "And there won't be any trouble." Besides, i

    Evie sat up and Sam saw her slight twinge.He kissed her cheek before jumping out of bed and helping her to her feet. "I stretched you some. You're probably a little sore."With no self-consciousness at all, she reached down and touched her pussy. Sam felt himself hardening again, even more. "A little," she admitted. "But it was worth every pang. We will do more tomorrow, right?""Promise." He hugged her tight then bounded across the room to pour some ice water from a pitcher he'd had ready into two tall glasses. "Here. I'll go start the shower."Evie sipped the cool water as though it were ambrosia. After so many years of deprivation, the smallest comforts meant the world. She heard Sam moving about in the attached bathroom. Sam had done a wonderful job of remodeling it, just as he was in the rest of the house. He'd kept the feel of an old and beloved family home while seamlessly integrating modern conveniences. She looked forward to trying out the multi-headed, stone-lined shower

    Summer stopped in her tracks and stared at the spot where Evie was standing. "Oh my goodness. I can hear you, but I can't see you. Are you Sam's ghost?"Of course, here was another Holiday who was sensitive to spirits. I am. My name is Evangeline Bonnell. Evie."Oh wow, my first ghost. Sam must be rubbing off on me." Summer's smile was brilliant, a feminine copy of Sam's. "Nice to meet you, Evie. I'm Summer."I know. Evie felt herself smile in return. I've been around this house for a long time.The dark-haired woman took a seat on the sofa and patted the cushion beside her. "So, Evie. This is odd. I'm usually the boring one. I've never talked to a ghost before."I think it might be your child, Evie thought. She was getting some sort of vibration, almost like recognition from the tiny bulge of Summer's tummy. He'll be born at Beltane - another time when the veil is thin."He?" Summer's hand flew down to cover her child. "We just found out about that part yesterday. I haven't even

    Sam stood in the middle of his living room, dumbfounded.Your sister is very kind, Evie said."Yeah, she can be. Of course, she can be a real hardass at work, but Matt and the baby have softened her up a lot too."You love working with your family, don't you?He didn't have to stop and think. "Yeah, most of the time. Having your father as a boss can be a pain in the butt sometimes, but after the first few years it smoothed itself out. It helps that we've each carved our own niche." He went back through to the kitchen and began putting away groceries. "While Noel and I both went to art school, he designs the greeting cards. That leaves me to do ornaments, pillows and other holiday décor items. Nobody had done that before, so I pretty much have the whole department to myself."You're all so creative. And your sisters are both active in the company too. That was rarely allowed while I was alive. Sure there were dressmakers and a few other women who worked, mostly widows or old maids,

    He spent awhile working on his computer but couldn't concentrate. Forcing himself to wait until eleven to start preparing, he gave up trying to work. Instead, he spent a while sketching Evie in various poses, including some he'd only imagined, like outside on a rope swing under a willow tree. Finally, with just an hour more to wait, Sam went upstairs, put the new silk sheets he'd bought onto his bed and arranged the roses he'd smuggled into the fridge before she'd come into the kitchen. He had a pair of silk pajamas for her to wear between her appearances this time, and had carefully hand washed her own garments so they'd be ready when it was time for her to leave. He left a bottle of massage oil warming in a sink of hot water and went back downstairs to prepare her treat - a lightly baked wheel of brie with an apricot glaze and a warmed baguette. A crisp white wine waited in the fridge.Tonight he had an hour and a half. He was still determined not to take her virginity until tomorro

    Sam watched Evie survey the last few kids out and about. He was just about to turn off the lights and call it a night. Time for one last interlude with the woman he loved. Her song had haunted his mind all day. Likely it would the rest of his life.He saw the young teen walking alone and heard the car come around the corner far too fast. In the moonlight, his heart lurched as he saw Evie start to run.Sam vaulted the porch rail and nearly caught up to her just as she shoved the kid out of the path of the car.He was just close enough to see it strike her, to see her beautiful face as she screamed and fell.The car screeched to a halt and the driver burst out of the door as Sam frantically searched for Evie, calling her name.But all trace of her was gone. No blood marred the pavement.The kid picked himself up off the grass and turned. "What the fuck?" Eyes wide, he looked up at Sam. "Dude, you saved my life. But I could have sworn it was a chick."Sam swallowed hard. He remembe

    She pulled back to look him in the eyes. "Me too, Sam. I don't regret a moment, not for myself. Knowing you was worth a hundred-year wait. But you...you have to go on living. Promise me you'll try to find someone. A kind woman who can make you laugh again, who can share your life, maybe give you a family to fill this old, lonely house.""I can't promise that." He wiped the tears from her cheek with his thumb. "After you - I don't know that any other woman would ever measure up."No, this couldn't be happening. It was all right for him to care about her, and it was fine for him to have broken her heart. She'd given it freely. But Sam had so much life ahead of him. "You have to promise to try. The Fates wouldn't be so cruel, Sam. There's a living, breathing woman out there for you somewhere. Please don't give up." She sniffled as more tears spilled down her cheeks."Don't cry anymore, Evie." His voice, already hoarse, cracked. "I promise, sweetheart. I'll try. Just maybe not right awa

    It was Evie's last day and he wanted it to be perfect. He'd offered her the option of doing anything she wanted. He loved handing out candy to trick-or-treaters, but he'd happily skip this year if there was something else she wanted to do.As it turned out, Evie's preferences were pretty simple. They spent the hours from midnight 'til dawn in bed. Then he showed her the joys of shower sex, taking her up against the wall with the water spraying all around them. He shaved her legs for her because she wanted to look more modern, if only for him.And that led to his carefully shaving her all the way up, until her luscious pussy was as bare and pink as could be. Of course he couldn't resist diving in to taste then filling her so she could feel the difference without hair.Then he finally let her get dressed. They were both moving gingerly when they made their way down the stairs for brunch. He hadn't had a workout like this since - well, ever."I have a birthday gift for you," she told

    It took a little experimentation for Evie to find the motion that worked best - not that anything felt bad with Sam inside her and his hands on her breasts. Finally she settled on an up-and-down movement, with her hands braced on his shoulders. His cock rubbed her in just the right spots. She felt herself going higher, tighter than ever before.When Sam took one hand off her nipple, she almost cried out at the loss. She watched him lick his index finger and wondered what he was about to do, though she was so caught up in fucking him she really didn't care. She was close, so close to her climax, and she trusted him implicitly.He reached behind her and placed the tip of his finger on her anus, pressing it just a tiny bit inside the tight opening.Evie gasped. "Sam?""Do you like it?" he rasped.It was odd, but not unpleasant. She nodded, still riding him frantically. "Good," he grunted, thrusting up hard into her cunt at the same time as his finger pressed harder, up to the first k

    "Want to light a fire tonight?" he asked as they rounded the last corner and approached their house. "We could make love on that rug in front of the fireplace.""Oh yes," she breathed, beaming up at him. A few minutes later she sat on his sofa sipping wine while he built a fire in the old brick hearth. She kicked off her shoes and socks, even removed her jacket and sweater, and waited for him in just her jeans and camisole, her hard nipples rasping on the silk as she watched the flex of his strong muscles underneath his snug knit shirt.When he was done, he went to wash his hands, returning in nothing but yet another pair of colorful cotton undershorts. He set a small bundle on the hearth then watched as Evie stripped off her jeans and joined him on the fluffy cotton rug.This time, she took the initiative, dropping to her knees in front of him and taking his face between her hands as she kissed him.He tasted of strawberries and wine and smelled faintly of his lemon-scented soap a

    They settled Ghengis in his crate and made their way up the stairs. Sam laid out the clothes he'd bought then shaved and brushed his teeth, changing into a clean shirt and jeans while Evie watched. His ghost was quite the little voyeur. Then at the stroke of midnight, he met her in the hallway and this time it was he who pulled her down the hall to the bedroom - after a long, spine-tingling kiss.He swatted her backside playfully when she groped his cock. "None of that, woman. Not yet, at least. Now we're off to see the world." There was so much he wanted to show her, and so little time."Fine." She tugged off the nightgown she'd worn during the day and studied the garments on the bed. "You have excellent taste, Sam. I suppose that goes with being an artist." It took just seconds for her to pull on the silky bikini underpants and camisole. Slender as she was, she didn't need a bra.She eyed the jeans with delight. "I wore my brother's old trousers only once when I was little - my fa

    Evie let Sam help her from the bed. He had been bigger than her fingers, and her body was fully corporeal this time. There was a bit of tenderness between her legs, but sex with Sam had been worth every pang and twinge. He sat her on a stool in the bathroom with a glass of water while he disposed of the used condom then filled his oversized bathtub with water. The scent of lavender and vanilla perfumed the room as fluffy white bubbles foamed up in the tub."Here." He watched while she bundled her hair into the now-familiar plastic clip then handed her two small brown pills from a plastic bottle. "These are pain relievers. They may or may not work on you, but they shouldn't cause any harm.""Thank you." She swallowed the tablets, marveling at how far medicine had come since she was alive. Willow bark tea had done some good but it had tasted horrible. These pills she couldn't even taste. "It doesn't hurt badly - and I don't regret it for a moment." He hadn't asked but she'd learned to

    "Let's make sure it was worth the wait." Sam kissed Evie again, taking back control and making sure she knew just how much he wanted her. He pushed down her shorts then his and pulled back from the kiss just long enough to lift her top over her head. Once they were both naked, he cradled her head in one hand and her ass with the other as he kissed her until neither of them could breathe."Oh yes," she moaned against his lips when they came up for air.Evie sagged toward the bed, and Sam eased her down to the sheets and gazed at her, her pale skin glowing against the burgundy silk. He'd lit the candles again, their glow adding a burnished gleam to her skin and hair. Soft jazz played in the background and the scent of vanilla perfumed the room. The setting was as perfect as he could make it, though not as perfect as Evie. He lay down beside her and kissed her again, this time with all the reverence he was feeling.Her response was electric, sending jolts of pleasure through his skin a
