278 KAREN ROSE

"I don't make promises I don't intend to keep." He pulled her to her feet. "If you're not satisfied, then I guess I'll have to keep working until you are." He cupped her jaw, his lips grazing hers. "Come to bed with me, Sophie. I have places to take you."

The breath she drew was unsteady. "Okay."

Wednesday, January 17, 5:00 A.M.

Vito crept from Sophie's bed, where she slept curled up like a kitten. A very beautiful, teachable kitten. He moved his shoulders. With claws. Which she'd dug into his back that last time, when he'd taken her so high... The memory made him shudder. He'd like nothing better than to feel those sharp claws once more. But he had to get home and change and get on with his day.

Another day of identifying bodies. Of notifying grieving families. Of trying to stop a killer, before there were any more bodies or grieving families. Vito pulled on his clothes, then pressed a kiss against Sophie's temple. At least he'd satisfied one customer.

He looked around for something to write on. He didn't want to leave without saying good-bye. He got the impression she'd gotten enough of that over the years, from men who'd taken what they'd wanted and gone on, leaving her to believe that's all there was.

She had no paper on her nightstand, unless he counted the candy wrappers, which he did not. But a framed picture caught his eye. He carried it to the window and held it to the light from the streetlamps. It was a young woman with long dark hair and big eyes, taken sometime in the fifties.
