“Neither do I,” he said in a low voice. “I did manage to get a grip, though.”
Jess cringed when she realized she might have made him feel like an uncontrollable freak. Whereas, she had that market cornered, not him. “How does he do it?”
“Jesus, Mary, and Joseph! I wish I knew. Don’t you think I’d do it for you, if I could?” She knew he still felt responsible that he couldn’t make her human again.
“It’s Fisk we’re discussing, not me.” She stared into his eyes and tried to make him understand. Carrying this burden could cost him his life. He needed to be on target and have a clear head at all times in their line of work.
“What do you think about Jane? Could she be addicted?” he asked.
“That’s another good reason for her to see Sampson tonight. If anyone can help her through this, it’s him.” She yanked out her cell phone and made a quick call, directing Sampson to keep Jane with him until he was sure she’d recovered from whatever Fisk had done to her.
“But I’m helping Regent . . . ,” Sampson protested.
“I know. But this is important to me, too,” Jess said. She waited for Sampson to argue again. For a couple of seconds, there was nothing but silence. She waited.
“Okay, that’s good enough for me,” he said finally. “Send her over.”
“Thanks.”
It was obvious Britt wasn’t happy about the situation with Jane, and he’d most likely want to take a strip off someone, namely Fisk.
Britt walked past his vehicle and she glanced at it on the way by. “You forget something?”
“Not at all.” He inhaled the night air. “Jane reminded me that vampires, in this state, don’t drive cars. I thought I’d come back tomorrow for my car, after I’ve removed the makeup.”
Jess moved ahead and spun around to face him. She stopped him in his tracks. If his gaze told her anything right now, it was that he was remembering her naked in her apartment. “I have to admit, you make a handsome vampire,” she said.
His Adam’s apple bobbed and his jaw clenched. “Think so?”
“Uh-huh,” she said, pressing against him. Moving just enough to get him hot and bothered. It usually didn’t take much. Dirty pool, she knew, but she wanted him back.
The muscles in his jaw clenched while she ran her nose along the strong column of his neck, flicked her tongue out and tasted his saltiness.
