I raced out of the base with Cy and Asa, unable to talk with the two bloodsuckers a entina? Why can&039;t I feel Vivian in my mind? That stupid jealous bastard should have let me come I would have protected her!

There are no planes that work The roads to the south are still impassable There is no one in Coldfoot whose safety I could risk to call in to fly et to her?

I&039;ve dialed her nuly cuthas led me to the less dojo on the resort&039;s s in one corner and I launch er to take out my frustration on the inani the canvas as hard as I can The heavy piece of equip its swing after each strike Anger pours fro a vicious speed to ain, no rhyht punches with the strength of an angry olf behind them

Where the hell are Paul and Drew? They called when they landed-but that was hours ago Nothing since then I hit the bag, both fists flying through the air, in every co, hitting it on the swing instead of waiting for it to settle Maybe I should call Chelly? What good could she do? Calling her will only make her worry more than I bet she already is

My face heats from exertion, andscreaain,blood on the tan material This should have never happened!

"No!" I pant out, voicing er to the room "We do not end like this, you redheaded bitch!" Tears strea with sweat My hands lash out over and over until the pain inthe bag in both arht After severalslows and returns to normal Acceptance entersthe

She would not leave Rafe willingly And if he ith her, one of the to her, I must have faith that she will find it She proain, and I need to take her words at face value She&039;s givenour link and I have a feeling it&039;s the one thing in the world that could make her break her word to me-a silver hood

My pulse slows, and I come back towounds feel good I flex hten up For the first time in the seven years I&039;ve dedicated my life to her, she truly needs me, and I&039;m not there for her

I roll my shoulders back and lean my head from side to side No matter how hard it is to take, I have to face that I can&039;t control the actions or choices of a half-millennia old vampire If I were there, is a whole &039;nother line of doubt I don&039;t want to put h

I leave the roo been repaired frolass and ripped Vikrahts one, and she brought h being hooded in the Seat of Darkness, it&039;s Vivian

The peaceful warmth of the water calls out to me I strip e shower Rafe and Vivian bathed the blood off of me after the attack, or so they told me I turn on the faucet and look back at the wooden bench I don&039;t recall ernail in my side Must have passed out froood after the pounding I gave et out I didn&039;t hurt anyone else or break anything, so I&039;ll count that as an alpha success on er ement classes I think most of those unhappy bastards just need to freakin&039; exercise and beat up a punching bag once in a while Let out that built up frustration and testosterone

I latherunder the spray of hot water, not ready to get out of the relaxing shower yet A throat clears beyond the glass door "Yeah?" I call out "Be done in aover the noise of the water and then the shower door opens "Hey-" I whip around to coloriously naked shifter, Candy "Oh,Hey"

Aat h the steaained for-defined waist, fit legs, slies to my crotch, and parts I have no control over start to stir Damn, I pray she&039;s here for what I hope

"Would you like so briefly oncock

I so of the hurt and worry of earlier It&039;s still there-defused by eable-not so stifling now

"What did you have into make sure I don&039;t overstep myself Hell, she could be a cock tease for all I know

She takes the soapy scrubby froorgeous breasts then over her stomach Her eyes are locked on mine the entire time "I heard you in the other roo What is this, so on purpose I orried about you"

Does she think I&039; sensitive bastard now and I need a shoulder to lean on? "I&039;m okay now, thanks" I try to move past her, out of the shower, and she stops me with a hand to my chest

"I knohat she means to you, Jon I admire your loyalty and dedication She sounds like a woman worthy of it, and that&039;s impressive-hard to find nowadays"

I look past her, unwilling to aze "She&039;s not froure froerous history and a lot of enemies She&039;s often cold and very powerful" What the hell a to push her away? I look down at Candy, not sure what ga, but ready to lay eneral in the war of life She does the jobs no one wants, and she&039;d do anything for the people she cares for"

"I know that, Jon Your words and actions told me" Her arms twine around my neck and she presses her wet, soapy flesh to e of emotions I&039;ve experienced in the past hour have left me raw and exposed Maybe I&039;less poke in the shower A sigh escapes me as my pain and desolation crash back Hell I tilt away from her embrace, unsure what the devil I want
