Steve had a bad feeling ever since Loreen glued her lips to his. Why was she here? Why did she so freely enter the Fergus Stables and even places off-limits to outsiders? Probably because someone had allowed her to do so. Such permission had to come at a price.
Loreen Benson, dammit! What was she doing here?
Steve met with her from time to time. They both liked to have fun and didn't give a damn about decency. She, in particular, liked to add a certain pepper to their games. Maybe she taught him a trick or two? In any case, it wasn't anything serious, but whenever they got together, they landed in bed. They were like good sex friends leaving out the friend element, because for some reason Steve never trusted her enough to confide in her about any problem. But the sex was good. It allowed him to get away from the bad thoughts he had.
