better.”
    She groaned. “Listen, I’m not much of a medium. I don’t like it, but considering I can hear and now see dead people…”
    He slid onto his side, head propped up on one hand, making it that much harder to ignore the giant erection in the room. “Well, that’s fascinating, but like it or not you’re here.”
    “Okay, let me think. Do you like being dead?” She toyed with a bit of paper peeling off the top of the particleboard table.
    “No.”
    “Is there something you needed to tell someone before you died?” She slammed her hand down on the table to get his attention, but he only yawned. “Is there anything at all that you still give a shit about since you died?”
    His eyes focused on her with an almost disturbing level of intensity. “Actually, yes. I always want to have sex. I mean even now with you desperately trying to keep your eyes off my dick. All I want to do is screw you every which way known to man, and then invent some for good measure.”
    She pursed her lips and crossed her legs, trying to convey a displeasure she didn’t feel. Her pussy rather liked the idea. “Well, you died with an erection. So I guess that makes sense.”
    “No, it’s more than that. I’m horny. That’s true. But when people have sex or even sexual thoughts around me, I feel a little alive.”
    She scooted farther back into her chair. “Is that why you touched me last night?”
    “You felt it?” His eyes lit up.
    “I thought I was dreaming, but yes.”
    “Last night something called to me, and there you were. When I possess someone, I end up feeling weaker and black out. But after you…” His gaze dropped to her lips. “I want to touch you again. I want to feel you come like you did last night, but for me.”
    She bit the inside of her cheek. “Your unresolved issue might be that you died… Unsatisfied.”
    Quinn broke out into loud guffaws, but after a few minutes his laughter died. He sat up cross-legged and faced her. “You know. That isn’t so crazy.”
    “Thanks for the confidence.”
    “You’re welcome, but we still have one problem.” He pointed at her with a dramatic pause. “I can’t touch myself even to jerk off, much less have sex with a woman. So, how am I supposed to resolve my…” He sent a pointed look to his cock. “Problem.”
    She sucked in her bottom lip and dropped her gaze. “Well, I might have an idea, but we would need Jake’s help.”

Chapter Five
     
    Virginia hurried out of the shower at the knock on the door and wrapped a towel around herself. Yeah, Jake was in a sulk when he left, but would he knock?
    “Give me a minute.” She threw on a top and a pair of jeans. Her palms grew damp at the thought of what she planned to ask him. Quinn grumbled as she walked past the television. Apparently, death had given him a hunger for reality television as well as sex. With a scowl in Quinn’s direction, she opened the door.
    Daphne, blonde hair pulled back in a perfect chignon, slouched against the wall beside the door. “Hey.” A smirk appeared on her perfectly bow-shaped lips. “I brought the research materials you asked for.” The tiny purse Daphne carried couldn’t hold more than a pamphlet, and her hands were empty.
    Virginia frowned. “Where?”
    “You’re such a dinosaur.” Daphne dug into the pocket of her white Capri pants and pulled out a bright pink thumb drive. The small piece of plastic dangled from her thumb and forefinger. Virginia snaked out a hand to grab the drive, but Daphne pulled back at the last moment. “No way. Not until you tell me why you need books about sex magick.”
    Quinn’s head jerked up.
    “Shh.” Virginia lifted a hand and gripped her friend’s elbow to lead her out of the room.
    Daphne’s heels dug into the worn blue carpeting. “Are you trying to live out your teenage wet dreams for Quinn? Because no matter how erect and mammoth, ghost penis is kinda creepy.”
    The horny ghost in question floated between them with
