Elizabeth forced herself to go back into the bar. When she stepped inside, she knew Jensen was gone. The air felt totally different. Instead of making her feel better, as she thought it would, she felt worse. Had he taken the blonde back to his house? Had he gone to spend the night at her place?

“Lizzie?” Mina said, coming toward her. “Are you okay?”

She paused for a second at the use of her nickname. She hadn’t heard it for a while. It was amazing how quickly she’d let it go. But somehow it seemed appropriate tonight. She needed to remember who she really was, and why she couldn’t be with a mortal. She was Lizzie Devlin. Werewolf, mate of Brody Devlin, and no longer Elizabeth, the gentlewoman who would have married well, had children, and lived a normal life.

She had to remember that. And she had to remember that Jensen would have all those things she lost. If she left him alone.

“I’m a little tired.” She didn’t know why she bothered to lie. Mina could feel every emotion radiating from her as if it were her own. But she still couldn’t voice the truth.

But Mina wasn’t going to accept her avoidance. “Who is he?”

Elizabeth didn’t pretend that she didn’t know what Mina was asking. She shrugged.

“He’s just some man.”

Mina shook her head. “He’s much more than that.”

Elizabeth felt tears welling in her eyes again. Mina gently took her elbow and led her to a table in the corner away from her brothers, who watched from the bar like worried mothers.

“He’s more than that. We can all feel it.”

Damn vampires and their ability to read emotions.

Still, Elizabeth considered denying it. Then she couldn’t. Her emotions were simply too high to keep them bottled in.

“Yes. He is. I don’t know what, exactly. I just know that I... ” She couldn’t find the right words. Her feelings made no sense to her, so how could she explain them to Mina?

“You are in love.”

Elizabeth’s gaze snapped to Mina, who just shrugged and offered her an almost sympathetic smile.

Opening her mouth, Elizabeth thought to argue the claim. But she couldn’t.

“You love him,” Mina stated. “And he loves you, too. It’s clear in the air.”

“No. No!” Elizabeth shook her head.

“Okay, but I know what I’m sensing.”

Elizabeth stared at her friend. That couldn’t be the case. She couldn’t be in love with Jensen. And worse than that, he couldn’t love her in return. No.

Her eyes brimmed with tears. “No.”

Mina reached across the table and caught her hand. “This is a good thing.”

Elizabeth shook her head. No. It was a terrible thing.

“I can’t be with him.”

“Why not?”

Elizabeth gaped at her friend. “Because I’m a werewolf!”

Mina glanced around to be sure no one heard her. Then she said calmly, “So? He can learn to accept that. Look at Jane and Jolee. They learned to accept your brothers.”

Elizabeth shook her head. “It isn’t the same.”

“Vampires are probably harder to deal with than werewolves. After all, you can go out in the day.
