CHAPTER FOURTEEN

Ghost of Me

Cowboy drifted around the mansion like a ghost, moving from room to room without any real human contact. He grew tired of being alone. Out of desperation he went to Summer’s room and stood in the corner. She didn’t bother to wear the black veil when no one was around. He tried not to look at her face. The wrinkles and sagging skin made his stomach churn.

Her cell phone beeped, letting her know she had a text. He read the words over her shoulder. Matt was on his way. Cowboy hoped he brought his brother. Maybe Trick would finally notice he was missing.

Why couldn’t he get through to Summer? They’d been friends for decades. She ought to be able to sense his presence. He tried yelling, tried grabbing stuff to throw it, and he’d even tried whispering in Summer’s ear. Nothing worked.

With a frustrated sigh Summer sent a text in return: Don’t come over.

Cowboy’s eyes narrowed. “Why do you always have to be so contrary?”

Of course, she didn’t hear him. Another text came through. Matt was insistent on seeing her. They went back and forth for a few minutes.

Cowboy shouted, “Let the boy come over! Since you don’t care I’m gone, Matt may be my only chance. I need that geek to tell his brother I’ve gone missing.”

Then he remembered his own cell phone. He pulled it from his pocket and grinned. Because it had been on him when he’d vanished, he was able to use it. The grin widened. He hit Summer’s number and raised it to his ear.

She glanced at her cell when it rang. Instead of answering, she shut the thing off and mumbled, “Leave me alone.”

Bitch! What was wrong with her? Maybe she had a little problem, but he was dealing with a huge one. The least she could do was answer her stupid phone.

Cowboy called Trick next.

His buddy would help him.

After half a ring, the call was denied.

Cowboy stared down at his cell and wished painful deaths on his so-called friends. A vampire couldn’t count on anyone these days. He mumbled a few threats beneath his breath. Who needed enemies like Oberon when he had them?

A gentle fist knocked on the door.

“It’s me,” Matt said. “Come downstairs. If you don’t, I’ll be back, and I’ll kick down this door.”

Cowboy laughed at the thought of nerdy Matt Donovan trying to impress Summer by breaking her door. His bones would crack long before the sturdy wood. Now that might be an interesting show.

Matt went downstairs, and Cowboy followed. There wasn’t a sign of Trick anywhere. Cowboy’s fists tightened. He wanted to beat someone senseless. If he didn’t find a way to work out his frustration soon, he’d go insane.

He trailed Matt to the living room and stood in the corner while the mortal boy sat on the floor in front of the coffee table. Matt shuffled a deck of cards before dealing two piles. The guy had a lot of faith in Summer. To be honest Cowboy wasn’t sure what she would do.
