Brad is walking almost too quickly for me to catch up with him, but I make my much smaller steps count, practically running to reach him. When I do, I walk beside him, trying not to pant like an angry hippo, even though he won’t look at me. Feeling frustrated, I look around us and notice that everyone out and about seems to be avoiding us like the plague.

Probably because my vampire looks pissed as hell.

“Would it have been better if I hadn’t stopped them?” I finally manage, glaring.

He doesn’t look at me. “No, but it’d be nice if the woman I was sleeping with could be honest with me.”

“Fair enough, but I’ve explained…”

“That it could get us killed,” he says in an almost mocking tone. “I’m a vamp, Connor is a shifter, Ajax is a god, but whatever you are will get us killed. Yeah. Okay.”

“Yes, that’s right.” My glare deepens. “And as hard as it is, I need you to trust me when it comes to that, because I’ve only lied when I’ve had to.”

He turns and looks at me. “Like about Fredrick? About your child?”

I wince, like he’s hitting me with bullets.

“Or do you want to pretend you were always honest when it came to those things?”

He’s not wrong, and I can’t bring myself to say he is. “Just accept this. Stop being a stubborn ass and accept that this is one thing you might never know.”

“Accepted,” he grumbles, but his tone says exactly the opposite. “Now, can we focus on reaching the vamp’s house and getting off the street before those gods come for us again?”

“Fine.” There’s no way this topic is over, but I’m fine with it at least being over for now.

So, we keep walking. In silence. Which is not at all awkward.

By the time we get to the vampire’s house, Brad seems a little calmer. If just by a fraction. And yet when I look up at the massive vampire home, my stomach twists and any confidence the alley gave me is gone. I might know and trust Brad, but this old vampire is a whole other story, and I have no idea what we’re going to face once we see him.

What’s more… I really don’t want to go into this building. It just looks like the kind of place where people sing to you while they carve you up for dinner. Or maybe I’m just being dramatic, I’m not sure.

The place is surrounded by a tall wrought-iron fence that is currently wide open. Not in a welcoming way. More like the opening of a monster’s jaws.

Okay, yup, I’m being dramatic. It isn’t that bad.

The building itself is lit up like it’s ready for a party, which teamed with the music I hear thumping from the house, definitely makes me think this vampire is having some kind of an event. The house, if you could call it that, is a combination of a really fancy cabin in the mountains and what I’d imagine a vampire-owned mansion to look like.
