At Next Bloom - Hidden Blooms, #2

Kei is now a guest at Loren's cozy little cottage tucked away in a place where no one can quite get to them. Except, maybe, the grumpy Gheyo overseeing his witness protection detail and some very determined water sprites. Between Loren's generous hospitality and his own overflowing emotions, Kei is drawn even closer to him, unable to help but find Loren a steady grounding presence in his changing life. Is there actually something there? Or is he just imagining it?
