Chapter Thirteen

Mime on Melrose

RAVEN RETURNED TO THE LIMO with a spring in his step. What a strange, tempestuous, and ultimately beautiful evening. As the vehicle passed through the intersection of Ventura and Sepulveda, however, he peered through the window—searching fruitlessly for a red mohawk. I was imagining things. With a sigh, he sat back, closed his eyes, and relived the wonderful moments when he held Tori in his arms.

The clack of striking billiard balls reached Raven’s ears as soon as he walked into Blackfriars. In the game room, Fletcher was lining up a shot.

“Hullo.” He straightened. “Fancy a game?”

“Maybe later. Where’s Felicia?”

“Treadmill, I think, working off some angst.” Fletcher paused. “Raven…don’t be too hard on her. She’s wrestling with some emotions, and you know how much she hates those.”

“If you think she views Tori as a rival for my affections, you’re wrong.”

“I didn’t say it was logical or even intelligent. I don’t know what she sees in you, personally, but she’s been rather messed up since Nicholai.”

“She was messed up long before that.”

“Granted.” Fletcher peered at him. “Nevertheless, do me a favor and change your shirt before you talk to my sister, would you?”

“Why?”

“Under the circumstances, the traces of lipstick on your collar might drive her over the edge.”

Raven felt a painful blush burning. “Er…right. Thanks for the warning.”

“Let me give you another one. If you should stumble with Tori, I’ll be there to pick up the pieces before you can say Greenwich Mean Time.”

“Duly noted.”

In his room, Raven slid out of his jacket and button-down shirt. Sure enough, Tori’s makeup stained his collar. I miss her already. He grabbed his cell phone and sent her a text message: Good night. Sleep well. Then he donned a t-shirt over his jeans and headed to the gym for a word with Felicia.
