I sink back on the bed, the bruises, the aches, everything making much more sense. Why didn’t I slam my head into the wall before I let Robert Montgomery anywhere near me yesterday? Why did I even let him into my apartment? I wasn’t that drunk when we got here!I turn my head to the right and see that the sheets are crumpled, as if somebody has been there.He slept here?I bury my face in my hands. He didn’t get dressed and go home? He decided to spend the night?!How is this situation progressively getting worse?!When Mano puts her paws on the bed and nudges me with her head, impatiently, I look at her tearfully. “Do you mind? My life is falling apart here.”She gives me a judgmental glance before slinking back to the floor and trotting away. Seconds later, I hear the sound of her steel food bowl clanging on the ground, as if to tell me my problems don’t trump her breakfast time.I force myself to sit up, swallowing my cries as my body aches in new ways. When I see Mano peeking thro

“That what me?” I echo, confused.“Close your eyes,” she orders, “and reach for the cards that draw you in. You’ll be able to feel it.”I stare at her for a full minute before sighing and wiping my hands on my apron. “Alright. Let’s do this, then.”Moving her drink to the side, I close my eyes and start touching random cards. The third card I put my finger on produces a tingling sensation in my fingers. I’m opening my eyes when Angie snaps, “Keep your eyes closed!”I flinch. “Okay. They’re closed.”“Do it again.”I begin touching the cards randomly again, and I let out a startled sound.“This one?” Angie asks tightly.“Y—yeah.”“Keep doing it,” she says.By the end, when I’m allowed to open my eyes, I see that she has separated four cards and is studying them. I recognize three of them as the same ones she showed me before, that day in the park. However, the fourth one is new. I can’t make out the picture.Angie puts the card back down, her expression troubled.“Angie?” I’m beginning

I stare out my office window at the small cafe on the corner, just across the street from me. She’s so close, and she feels so far away. I’ve always prided myself on not being indecisive, but I am standing in the center of a storm, torn between two paths: one to search for my own happiness, and the other to remain loyal to my duties. I won’t be able to do both because forcing the pack to accept Charlotte will be next to impossible. Even if the pack does try, the elders, who want to use their daughters or nieces to gain the power that comes from being related to the Alpha, will fight me at every turn.I see the door to the cafe open. A red-haired woman walks out, struggling with her jacket. It’s quite cold these days, and I see her trying to fight against the wind.I feel like a coward, staring at her from a distance. I haven’t called her or reached out to her once after our night together. God knows what she thinks of me.All of a sudden, I realize she’s not moving. She seems to be wa

I suddenly feel insulted. “Why would I have a problem with your scar? What kind of question is that?”“Well, that’s the only reason I can think of for you rejecting me.” Robert gives me a suspicious look.I can’t help but glare at him. “Don’t pretend to be dense, and don’t play the scar card with me. I don’t have a problem with your scar. And you know exactly why I’m saying no. I just told you.”“If you really felt that way,” Robert counters, “then why were you so angry that I didn’t show up sooner?”His fierce response has me staggering. I have no way of answering that.“I—I wasn’t angry…” I try to slip out of the trap that I unwittingly just created for myself.“Now you’re insulting me.” Robert gives me a look that makes me want to smack him over the head. “You were upset I didn’t get in touch with you. If you truly believed your little speech, then you would have been thrilled that I didn’t, wouldn’t you?”I can’t fault his logic. The truth is, I wanted him to show up, but I also k

Unfortunately, this is my job, and I can’t exactly say no. I flip the closed sign once the hours are up and begin putting the chairs on the tables. Gina was kind enough to prepare the mop water for me today; I quickly clean the floor, then go into the bathroom to drain the bucket. After washing it, I put it in the small storage room we have in the back for cleaning supplies. As I’m about to close the door of the storage room, I hear a sound coming from outside.Frowning, I take off my rubber gloves and make my way to the front of the cafe.A woman is standing there, near the counter, her back to me.“I’m sorry,” I begin. “We’re closed.”Two things happen at the same time: I see the way the front door lock has been broken, and the cold energy that can only belong to a vampire reaches me.I freeze.This is not good.The woman slowly turns, and I recognize her almost instantly. My blood runs cold.Chapter 12Charlotte Sanguinite“You,” I breathe, rooted in place out of fear and shock.Th
