Michel wakes and sits up in bed beside me, his hair messy, falling in his eyes in that deliciously sexy way that I try my best to ignore.

“How did you sleep?”

I yawn and stretch. “I didn’t.”

He shakes his head at me. “I could have put you to sleep if you weren’t so determined to shut me out.”

“I needed to think,” I say, not willing to get into a discussion of our relationship.

He slides out of bed and pulls on his jeans. “And what did you think about?”

“How we’re going to defeat Soren. How we’re going to stop Blackstone.”

I watch as he zips up and fastens his belt. He’s regarding me thoughtfully. “You don’t have to worry about that part, Eve. You only have to do yours.”

I sigh. “Do you really think Soren won’t be expecting us to take another stab at using the serum?”

“He’ll be expecting it. That’s the only way to destroy him.”

“But if he’s expecting it—”

“It will be a distraction from the real attack.”

“Which is?”

Michel smiles guiltily. “I could tell you, but then I’d have to kill you.”

I frown, unable to comprehend why those remaining of the real Council would go ahead with a plan it knows Soren will expect.

“So while Soren focuses on the Council plot, there will be another unexpected attempt?” I ask.

“Something like that. Now don’t ask for any more details. You know I won’t put you at risk. Others may want you for your strategic purposes,” he says, running a hand through his hair, “but I want you for your other more endearing attributes.”

I’d slipped out of bed but stop in my tracks at that. “Michel, I told you that I won’t be with you again. Not as lovers.”

He comes to me, standing before me in all his bare-chested faded blue jeans beauty. He leans down to me, taking my chin in his hand. “You will be. When this is all over. I’ll do everything in my power to make sure it happens. I love you, Eve.”

He kisses me before I can escape, but his kiss is brief. He turns away when he’s finished and goes to the armoire, removing a sweater from a shelf. The muscles in his strong back flex as he raises the sweater over his head.

Part of me wants a future with him, the way we were when I met him again, in that brief moment before I found my online journal and discovered the truth. I was blissfully unaware of reality for those weeks before I learned the truth. All I knew was that I had this gorgeous man following me, getting closer, and then becoming my lover. It ended far too soon and ever since, my life has been filled with too much reality.

It’s selfish of me to want to go back to the brief time before I knew vampires existed. Before I was one. When I thought Michel was just a very pale European man with a soft French accent who loved stars and walks on the beach.
