Evie

I bounce on the balls of my feet, watching the barista as she makes my coffee. Caffeine is much needed after class today. I can feel myself slowing down and caring less about my classes and more about the strange murders occurring in town. Not to mention I have an attractive vampire always lurking nearby, appearing when I least expect him.

It’s safe to say that my mind is elsewhere, so I need this coffee to liven me up enough to go to the library and work on an assignment that is due next week. If I go back to the sorority house, I know I’ll get distracted by my friends or whatever themed night is planned for dinner by the sisters in charge. They say that getting the girls in the house together will strengthen our bond, but I disagree. Not all the sisters can be friends—I think the tension between Amara and me is proof enough. And I’m sure some of the other girls have their issues too, which is why I need to steer clear from the house and stay in the library for guaranteed peace and quiet.

The hiss of the milk frother fills my ears as I look down at my phone, checking for any new messages. I see I have two—one from Miles, and the other from Rylee.

Rylee: Hey! I didn’t catch you before you left but wanted to

ask if you’re going to be back in time for Taco Thursday.

Amy is making sure everyone attends…

God, these girls sure do love their themed nights. That’s two this week already.

Evie: As appealing as it is to spend the night with the entire house eating tacos,

I’m going to have to pass. I have a big assignment due next week that I need

to start. But I’ll see you later when I get home. Enjoy those tacos!

Hopefully, Jenny isn’t on the meat tonight…LOL.

Next, Miles’s message.

Miles: Sis! Just wanted to check in on you. We’ll have to catch up

for lunch sometime soon whenever you’re free. But I’ll be seeing

you at the game this weekend, right?

“A large vanilla iced latte to go!”

My head snaps up at the sound of the barista’s voice calling out my drink order. Slipping my phone into the back pocket of my jean shorts, I walk around a tall man standing in front of me, and head to the counter where I see my drink sitting. As I reach for the drink, smiling at the worker, I can already feel the cool condensation on my fingertips. The weather is starting to cool down as the warm summer heat shifts to a cooler fall, bringing with it spooky season and pumpkins.

As I wrap my fingers around the base of the plastic cup, so does another hand, one much larger than mine. Confused, I lift my eyes to the tall man beside me, the one I had stepped around to reach the counter. His deep chocolate eyes look back at me with a hint of amusement twinkling within them.

“Well, this is awkward,” he jokes, not letting go of the cup.
