She shrugged. “Sure. Will it bug anyone?”
“No, and once they are gone, we can do the final candy canes and set up all the gingerbread houses for tomorrow. That will free me up entirely, and we can do something fun, like a date.” He grinned.
She laughed. “Sure. If there is no one watching, I can use my hands with the molten sugar.”
“You can?”
“Of course, I am impervious to temperature. Did you have any equipment you want me to go over so the girls have a really nice worry-free year?”
Rex started in on his burger. “I will make a list.”
Bel chuckled. “Check it twice.”
He snorted and they kept eating.
Two more days of fun, frolicking and candy led them to the morning of the twenty-third. They were on top of the sweet shop and ready for launch.
“Are you sure you want to bring all these sweets to your team?”
Bel nodded. “We always have to make our own. These are much better. Now, do you have my collar?”
He held it up. She pried off the snowflake and put it in the box, handing it to him and taking the collar.
“You look a lot different without the snowflake.”
She grinned. “Oh, I know. Just wait.”
She closed the collar around her neck, and it snapped shut, containing her power into a specific magic.
“Okay, you know how to grab for the horns?”
“Sure; are you sure you can carry me?”
She walked over to him and kissed him quickly. “That is a silly question. Let’s get going.”
She shifted form. Belinda Litzen became Blitzen. Nine feet of hoofed and horned Christmas magic embodied.
Her wolf blinked for a moment, grinned, and then, he approached her, climbing into position with a little bit of kicking before settling and gripping her horns. A few steps later and they were galloping through the skies in the false hours of dawn.
They had a lot of sky to cover before they were back at the workshop. She had work to do on the morrow after all.
Work, work, work.
Sorry it was late, but my surgery had some complications that slowed me down.
