Interview with a…Yeah, Let’s Not Get Sued, Here.

They left the room not long after. I could hear them talking in the kitchen, him freaking out, and her trying to reassure him that I was only picking on him. And her. For being loud in their fun after sunset when I’d come up to start my laundry.

She made him a simple dinner from pasta and the leftover from scratch spaghetti sauce I’d helped her make in the fridge. Which Andi had been eating on baked potatoes.

I didn’t ask, but she insisted it was better that way.

I eat people. And now blood bags. I didn’t have any room to talk about weird diets.

The two of them went upstairs and I rolled my eyes sighing. But then, he went into the bedroom we’d set up as a guest room, and she went into the master bedroom. I ignored them in favor of getting some work done on the investments accounts I held. One of my bigger investors had emailed me after I’d gone to bed, with a request to pick up a specific stock. It looked good, and was on the way up, so I’d put out a mass email recommending it to the rest of my clients, while buying for the client that had specifically requested it.

I was just finishing up a flurry of activity when Ray came down. I heard him pause outside the library, and knock on the doorway. I turned a little, glancing back at the doorway. “Come on in. I don’t bite unless attacked,” I called.

“So, you do bite people. Sometimes, at least,” he said. “Ever kill anybody on purpose?”

I spun my chair around, cup of coffee cradled between my hands. “Well, yeah. Hasn’t Andi told you how we met?”

He blinked. One time. Very slowly. “Uh, no.”

“She was leaving the gym, and some jackass had roughed her up a bit and drug her in an alley. Had her pants down, and was fumbling with his belt and fly. I stepped in.” I shuddered. “I hate rapists.” I looked up from my coffee to study his reaction.

He’d sank into a chair, one arm dangling, and the other hand covering his face. “Well, that’s…” His voice trailed off, and he moved his hand away from his face, looking tired. “Please tell me that one’s not still walking the world.”

“Nope. I slammed him against the wall he’d pinned Andi against, bent him backwards, and drained him,” I said.

“So it’s more than just a bite that brings…people…back,” he guessed.

I shrugged. “From what I’ve read, yeah. Either several feedings to introduce enough whatever it is that turns humans not human, not just a marathon session ending in death, or ingesting something else from the vampire.”

“Something…else.” He sounded more than a little grossed out. “I know there was rotted people meat in your stomach when you were autopsied. And a lot of it under your nails.”

I shrugged. “I think ass-face got overconfident. I fought back against being raped and drained.”

“Do you think…ingesting semen…would work?” he asked, looking both fascinated and repulsed.
