Chapter Seven

“Hey there. I’ve got you…” Roark caught the redhead as she bowled right into him. He couldn’t tell if she was running away or running toward something.

“I’m sorry.” She wobbled on her feet, still holding on to his arm to steady herself. “I just need some air.” Her head was down, and for a second he thought she was going to be sick on his shoes. The black shawl thing she was carrying dragged on the ground, but by the way she was swaying, it didn’t seem to matter.

Still sore from Martin’s antics a few days before, he wasn’t going to be putting out any fires but he could at least help the young woman get where she needed to go. His captain would most likely laugh his ass off if he found out and set him to little old ladies crossing the street when it was slow at the station.

“FML,” he grumbled under his breath, annoyed that he wasn’t able to spend this time with Isobel as he’d wanted. Any other day and he wouldn’t mind it, but at this moment his community service was severely lacking.

“Come with me.” He set down his drink on one of the copious planters and guided her from the room. Passing the entrance to the exhibit, he led her toward the front of the main floor when she stopped, her hair still hiding the majority of her features.

“No. This way. There’s a garden.” She pointed toward a hallway he hadn’t noticed when he came through the first time.

“Sure. Come on. Do you need a medic? I can call some buddies at the station and get you some help.” He took her hand, and when his flesh connected with hers, the jolt of the connection stopped him in his tracks.

“No. No, thank you.” She rocked on her feet but kept going, pulling her hand from his grip, her heels clattering on the marble floor. “I have to get outside. I’m sorry.” Her long black dress swirled around her ankles, glittering under the fluorescent light of the hallway. Her shawl fluttered to the floor, forgotten in her hurry.

He stood there, staring after her, his heart beating wild in his chest.

What the fuck had just happened?

Roark’s cat roared to life, urging him forward. The only other time he’d ever felt a physical connection like that was with Izzy. And his mate was dead.

Wasn’t she?

Fuck. This was not happening. As far as he knew, the Bradford Coven was long gone, hanging out with their murderous cronies in Podunk, nowhere while he was here trying to get on with his life.

So, it couldn’t be them fucking with him. At least, he didn’t think so. Even the possibility pissed him off. He’d learned the hard way about dealing with problems. You tackled them head on and on your own terms.

He strode down the hallway and snatched up the scarf, angry without knowing exactly why. He glimpsed the female through the glass and as he pushed the door open, she turned, her familiar pale face illuminated by the lights of the fountain.
