Uva caught up with me halfway up the hill.

“I’m sorry,” she said, grabbing me by the arm.

I turned, seeing the way her chest was heaving from the quick run. She must’ve been sitting, waiting, watching me go, deciding whether to give chase. Making a decision.

“For what?” I asked.

“For looking at you the way I did when you showed me you…” She pointed to my mouth.

“Vampire fangs?” I said.

She managed an uncomfortable laugh. “Yeah, those.”

“I get it,” I said. “It must’ve been disconcerting.”

She shook her head. “It’s not that, it’s just…” She paused, looking at her hand, which was still on my arm. “Your skin’s not cold,” she said.

It was my turn to laugh. “I haven’t gone all full vampire.” In truth, I wasn’t sure what I was becoming exactly. The Syrene weren’t vampires, though they did seem to like the taste of blood.

“I always had a slight fear of vampires,” Uva said. “Growing up. I saw this scary movie once, about Dracula…I had nightmares for days.”

“No biggie,” I said. She looked at me skeptically. “Really,” I insisted. “I know you probably feel even weirder about it since we…”

“Fucked like rabbits?”

The breath left me. “Yeah, that.”

“Screw it,” she said, stepping closer, rising onto her tiptoes and kissing me full on the lips.

She tasted…awesome. Different. Warm and moist and kind of sweet. I felt my fangs respond, tingling, but I was careful not to poke her.

I wanted to poke her, to draw blood, to taste it…

I pulled back, trying not to show the fear I felt on my face. At what I’d wanted to do.

Uva offered a sly half smile. “We could, you know, make up for lost time,” she said, jerking her head back down the hill, toward the hut we’d consummated numerous times before I left to find Vrill.

It was a powerful temptation. Her beauty was the thing of legends. But if I almost lost control just kissing her—I couldn’t imagine what might happen if we went further. It scared the shit out of me. “I want to—trust me, I do,” I said.

“But you can’t right now,” she finished, looking slightly crestfallen.

“Can I get a raincheck? I’m sorry, time is of the essence. The army coming is moving quickly. We need to be ready when they arrive.”

She nodded, rising to kiss me again. “I’m being selfish. You’re right. When the battle is over, however, I’ll cash in that raincheck.”

“I’m looking forward to it.”
