Chapter 8

Genevieve didn’t slow down until the speedometer hit ninety and only reluctantly eased off the gas when her car shook like a junkie needing a fix. The quicker she got away from Bethany, the happier she would be. Fuck that Vincent anyhow. Who did he think he was? Better than she because her family allegedly harmed his? Allegedly. She’d never heard that bullshit story before. Most of her people stayed out of the limelight and avoided trouble. She couldn’t see witches drawing attention to themselves with a ridiculous, crazy stunt. Poisoning werewolves. Really.

But come to think of it, whenever she’d asked about were creatures, the older witches had traded looks with each other, then brushed the subject away, leading Gen to believe a juicy legend existed. No one would give her details, and as she grew older, her curiosity about them waned. She’d never met a were in person and never heard them mentioned in conversation.

“They’re becoming extinct,” a witch friend once told her. “My mom says there aren’t any left, and the ones still alive are wild and live in the woods, all alone. They’ll kill you if you come across them on a full-moon night.”

If weres had existed for a long time, as it would appear, they’d certainly made a few enemies along the way. The tale David told had probably been exaggerated over the years. More than likely, the weres provoked the witches in question, and the women had merely exacted revenge by playing a trick on the beasts. One they deserved.

Genevieve would have been happy to debate the issue with David and find out the true story. What hurt, the reason she now sped down the highway at a give-me-a-ticket-I’m-insane pace, was Vincent’s reaction. He hadn’t even stood up for her and had essentially told his cousin she wasn’t important. Sure, she had qualms about starting a relationship, and didn’t know exactly where it was headed either, but at least she had the balls to give it a try. They’d been so intimate, so close one minute, and the next he acted like they’d only met. Was this whole thing just fun and games to him?

Damn it, the evening had started so well. She’d drunk his blood, threw in a little truth spell as she did, and then, holy fucking cow. Her reaction, his too, could not have been more perfect. It was like being in the best kind of love, but better. She’d been desperately hot for him. Like she had to get close, have him wrapped around her immediately. His response to her brazen behavior let her know how much he wanted her too. The fire definitely burned. Afterward, before Butthead David arrived, tendrils of bliss wound through her body, like a wisteria vine in full bloom.

She was on the right track. Vincent was meant to be with her. Why did he have such a hard time seeing the obvious? Stupid men. Stupid werewolves.

An exit sign promised food ahead. After the delectable aroma
