Lifting his brother’s head, Rafe held his wrist to Rane’s lips “Drink, Rane”

She watched in horrified fascination as Rane’swound

She didn’t kno ht have been an hour She couldn’t tear her gaze away from the two men on the bed How had their parents ever told them apart? They appeared to be identical in every way

After a time, Rafe drew his wrist away

Savanah watched as he licked the wound, which healed instantly And then she looked at Rane As far as she could see, nothing had changed His wounds, still oozing blood, looked raw and angry

Moving up beside Rafe, she tapped hi, he stared down at his brother “We need Mara”

“Excuse me?”

Savanah lifted her chin “I love him”

Savanah felt suddenly light-headed “Are they co, too?” One Vampire, fine His brother, okay Add to that Rane’s parents and a Vaht it ht be time to crawl into a hole and pull the hole in after her

“Rane said he hasn’t been in touch with any of you in years How did you knohere to find him?”

“We are more than brothers, more than twins There is a blood link between us While Rane was conscious and in control, he blocked it But tonight…” Rafe looked at his brother “Tonight I felt his pain, and I followed it Why don’t you sit with hio dispose of the bodies?”
