Stained shirt, long skirt, body thatโs already bore childrenโฆ itโs another peasant life! I thought. I noticed, however, that I had a bright red ribbon woven into my long, dark braids. I relaxed and let my old memories flood inโฆ
The ribbon is from my love I thought. My dark Angel, my salvation!
She had already given me so muchโฆ a release from the hell that an abusive husband could make a womanโs life, a cure for the disease that had taken three of my five children, and protection from the Lordโs men who always lusted after unprotected women. She had even obtained this shack, a place we could meet far away from prying ears.
Sheโs also given me a reason, aside from my children, to go on.
I heard her steps leading up to the door, and my heart skipped a beat as it swung open.
A part that was still modern-day Annabelle gasped. It was Angelique! Angelique, in her long, tight gown and slim, graceful figure! I wasnโt sure if it was because I was so tuned in to past-meโs feelings or not, but when her heart skipped a beat and her body grew warm with arousal, mine followed suit.
โHilde.โ Angelique smiled, and my heart skipped a beat again. โMy love.โ
โAngelique.โ I answered in Hildeโs voice. โYouโre here!โ
โHow could I stay away?โ she said, gliding into the cabin and closing the door. โNow that you remember.โ
Just then I saw a blinding series of images fly byโฆ Angelique and I in a dozen different bodies, all wrapped around each other. After a few, my face started to change while Angeliqueโs stayed the same.โ
So many! Now-me thought. Far more than I've seen with Vincent and me!
Angelique wrapped Hilde-me in her arms. โNow you know how long Iโve loved you.โ
โAnd Iโve loved you!โ I said, staring into those so-familiar eyes.
And I knew it was true.
Chapter Nine
From the Diaries of Angelique Dupre
04/07/1589
Roanoke Colony
Sarah came into her power last night.
It was just past midnight when she awoke, sweating, head pounding. Itโs always like that at first, their bodies not ready for the change.
I inserted myself into her home for the evening. I had toโฆ none of them could have cleared the way for her. A sleeping spell for the local medical woman and a simple enchantment later, and nobody was the wiser that I wasnโt her.
I canโt do this too often, lest people notice the odd, dreamy feelings that such spells engender. However, I guided her through the final change, and she came through quite well.
Sheโs sleeping now. At times like this, I wish that I still could.

I had never seen such a sunset. The reds, yellows, and oranges burned like fire as they touched the horizon, the ocean stretching seemingly into infinity.
My eyes registered the sight, but my mind was elsewhere.
I can feel it. Deep inside, crying to get out.
My love for Angelique.
The strangest thing was that I felt no deficit of emotion for Vincent. I still loved him as fiercely as before, and my desire for him hadnโt changed either.
I always assumed that having feelings for another would dilute the feelings I had for everybody I thought. And yet, it just feels like tapping an endless well of feelings.
I knew that love didnโt have to be romantic love. I loved Raina and Jack dearly and would be devastated if anything happened to them. I could love Angelique like that with no complication or stress.
But what I felt in the last past life regression, in the Twilight Fae realmโฆ it was powerful. In a โsweep me up in the experience and who knows what will happenโ powerful.
I didn't want to hurt Vincent and thus had kept everything to myself. I knew I was acting like an idiot in a sit-com, but that was just one more element of stress on my plate.
Everythingโs bloody new I thought. My powers and allies to be sure, but also having a real-life relationship with real-life emotionsโฆ something I do NOT want to screw up!
At least I didnโt need to worry about any undue awkwardness at the Samhain ritual. Vincent and Angelique were looking into the border incursion on the Twilight Fae realm, and Trevor and Evelyn were still poking around South Africa. The Botan Doro had headed back to the mansion early, both to check on the houseโs security as well as for Katsu to start doing more intensive data sweeps on Vincentโs setup.
That left Raina, Jack, and I to observe the ancient holiday of Samhain together.
โAnnabelle? Are you OK?โ
Make that Raina, Jack, Gaia, and I.
When I had finally decided that I wanted to head back into my own realm, preferably somewhere warm, Raina and Jack voted to head out to Vincent and Angeliqueโs hide-a-way in Hawaii. Gaia, still holding on to her pledge to watch over my safety, would only stop arguing against it if we let her come along. I didn't mindโฆ it had been a while since I had gone anywhere without a non-human bodyguard, and even I wasn't sure about starting now, with so much still unknown.
Rainaโs becoming a great magick user, I thought, but she can't materialize a sword seemingly out of mid-air yet. Gaia can.
I turned around and put on my best simulated smile. โYeah, sure.โ
โReady to go to ritual?โ she asked, the green of her skin almost blending into the green of the vegetation surrounding her.
I looked back as the sun disappeared beneath the horizon. โYeah, letโs go.โ
We walked back along the small path through the tropical forest that occupied seventy-five percent of the compound. It was surrounded by a fifteen-foot tall privacy fence, a new addition, on three sides, with the high cliff
