06 Hunny’s Blog

I tape another crime photo to the map, growing excited. That’s the fifth photo fastened to the wall. Drake insists there is no such thing as a coincidence. I’m not as certain, but if he’s right I’ve cracked the code.

“I like what you’ve done with our place.” Drake looks up from the foot high stack of pancakes he’s inhaling. Between feeding him and figuring out Fox’s code, I’ve been busy. That’s good because Drake still won’t let me leave the place.

He won’t let me leave our place. My stomach grows warm at his words. It has been a week, and I feel like I belong here, with Drake. “I think I have it.” I beam at him. He’s not looking at my face. He’s looking at my legs, the dress shirt I’m wearing pulling up as I move. It is his dress shirt. Drake also nixed returning to my apartment to pick up clothes. He claims Fox will have men stationed there. He’s probably right. Fox is nothing if not thorough.

Which is why we’re both worried. Fox must have figured out by now where I am, yet he hasn’t tried to retrieve me. I don’t know what he’s waiting for, but I don’t doubt he’ll come after me eventually. Hopefully when Drake is at work. I don’t want anything to happen to him.

“What do you have, Hunny bunny?” Drake grins. He knows that nickname drives me crazy. “Other than me wrapped around your little finger?”

That’s not the body part he’s most fascinated with, believe me. “I’ve cracked the code. This is the date and time.” I tap a section of the string of numbers. “This is the location.” I tapped another section. “This is the crime.” The crimes were all perpetrated by multiple vampires. Did I just say perpetrated? Hell, I’m starting to sound like Drake. “Krag Fox is sending his minions out to create chaos.”

“Why?” Drake doesn’t look as impressed as he should be.

“I don’t know.” I stare at the wall. That is another code to be broken. I see no connection between the crimes, except that the areas were completely destroyed by the violence. “I do know when and where the next attack will be though.”

This gets his attention. “When?”

“Tonight at midnight.” I plot out the coordinates on the map. My fingers shake. No, that can’t be right. I check again. There is no mistake. “City Core Children’s Hospital.” The blood-sucking bastard is going after kiddies.

“You’re sure?” Drake stands.

I’m not. “He knows I have the information. He could change his plans.” I put my hands on my hips, staring up at the map. To move all the kids will be a project. “Or he could not. He may not think we’ll crack the code in time to take action.”

“If we’re wrong and we evacuate, the police chief will have my balls.” Drake paced the room. “If we’re right, and we don’t evacuate…” Children will die. He doesn’t have to say it. I meet his gaze. I see the turmoil in his eyes.
