“Are we going to talk about that?” She fluttered her hand back and forth between them.

With one hand on the wheel, Dacon navigated the I-580 freeway at speeds exceeding one hundred ten miles per hour. God, he loved driving fast. Autopiloted and hovercrafts were the current rave, but he preferred the old-fashioned manual method.

They zipped around the Altamont hills, forty miles out from Oakland. He followed the line of the former windmills, millions of white propellers dotting the green hills that used to provide power to over half the city, now they were empty shells. He preferred the time humans used wind.

“Talk about what?” he asked.

“That was wrong on so many levels,” she mumbled, and he guessed more to herself than him. But his ears picked up on one major word, wrong.

“You’re upset I kissed you.” He glanced from the asphalt highway to her face, then returned to the road. She’s thinking too much. He wondered what she would say if he told her that wasn’t the first time they kissed.

“Do you really feel a need to analyze our attraction? Not to sound cliché, but last time I checked, we were both consenting adults.”

“Yeah, you’re right. Let’s talk about the case.” She dismissed her idea. It was obvious she had only wanted to shove past an awkward moment. “What did you come up with?” Her perky voice, so unlike her, confirmed his assumption.

“I’m exploring a pattern.” He decided to follow her lead. For now. “All the victims were converted humans who were invited to attend a meeting the night of the mass murder. Byron is watching the meeting location. I’d like to search Troy’s apartment, see what I can find. What did you discover?”

“Besides my main suspects being yourself and your brothers?”

“Besides that.”

“I found a hunter who has AB with Rh factor negative blood and a DNA profile which connects him directly to the crime scene. Do you have a list of all the vampires in the Coven?”

“Sure, a total population list is in my PO.”

“I’d like to know who doesn’t have a G-profile on file.”

“You’ll need a file from the Coven to compare, and only our lab has that.”

Smirking, she held up her P-9500. “Not anymore.”

“How did you get that? As far as I know, you were only granted visitor access.”

“Let’s keep it simple and say I know how to do things.”

“You hacked into the Sangerian G-profile database?” Dacon was amazed. As far as he knew, the database was as impenetrable as the underground compound. He would have to talk to his cyber technician about Killian’s intrusion.

“Hacked is such a vulgar word.”

“But accurate.” He tried to keep from smiling.

She snickered. “I’d say we have some work to do and maybe a couple clues to start with.”

“Maybe.”

Except for the purring engine, a peaceful quiet settled over them.

“Tell me about your family,” she said as they neared the city, the traffic heavier.

He winced. Talking about his family still caused him pain. “My father and mother were both killed in the war.”

“Leaving the three brothers.
