CHAPTER NINETEEN

For two days, thoughts of Zander haunted Elsie. His sexy smile, his hypnotic blue eyes, the fitted shirt over his muscular chest, and the way his black slacks hugged the best ass known to man. Well, to be accurate, vampire. Fire coursed through her blood and ignited desire low in her abdomen. She had felt a connection to him from the very first moment.

Did knowing he was not only a vampire, but the Vampire King, change how she felt about him? Her logical mind said yes. That they were two different creatures and not compatible, but her aching body screamed that it didn’t matter at all. In fact, her body was begging for him to sink his fangs into her throat and take anything he needed. It was a yearning that disturbed her greatly.

One thing was clear to Elsie. She had reacted to Zander’s revelation poorly. Despite her conflicting emotions and disbelief, she missed her friends. She wanted to see them again. Talk to them. It had been lonely in her apartment. Her only company was her turmoil and it was driving her insane.

The ring of her cell phone intruded, and she scrambled to grab it from her backpack. She considered having voicemail pick up when she saw it was Orlando, but she wanted to hear his voice.

“Hi, Orlando. I’m glad you called,” she said by way of greeting as she nervously rubbed her thigh. She swallowed against the tightening in her throat, anxiously waiting for his reply.

“Hey, El. I’m calling because there’s been a development in the criminal case. Okay, that’s only part of the reason. I miss you. We all do,” he muttered.

As she listened to him talk, she realized she knew so little about these beings. She wondered why Orlando and Santiago worked for the police, and Jace for Harborview. Zander said it was their mission to keep humans safe. What did that mean? Would they be willing to partner with SOVA? How would Mack take this news?

Mack’s hatred for vampires was so deep that Elsie doubted she’d take it well. She knew she’d have to tell her friend at some point, but wasn’t looking forward to that conversation. In fact, she’d been avoiding her.

Elsie stood and paced the floor as she cleared the lump from her throat. “I miss you guys, too. You’ve helped me so much, and I treated you terribly the other night. I’ve given a lot of thought to what Zander said and I understand why you kept it a secret from me. Obviously, people wouldn’t handle the news well. They’d be afraid and some would hunt you down.” If she were honest, she would’ve been a part of that ignorant group. “And, I’d bet the government would want to study you. Oh, Orlando, I’m so sorry for kicking you and Zander out of my apartment.”

“There’s no reason for you to be sorry. And, we never left. We’ve been keeping watch outside your apartment. We wanted to make sure you remained safe,” Orlando admitted.
