Chapter Ten

Leo wanted to kiss the shores of Monstrana and every tree in sight. Eina had swam them the whole way there and managed to find a secluded rocky shoreline. She transformed to her human legs and followed him through a cropping of trees until a small town came into view.

“Leo.” Eina grasped his arm when she spotted a few people walking on the street. Fear quaked in her voice. “Are those werewolves? Should we be in their town?”

“It’s okay.” He placed a hand over hers and smiled down at her. “No one is going to hurt you. But I have to make a call.”

Her dark gaze flitted to his and instantly, the tension melted from her face. She had a long way to go to trust the supernatural world, but she trusted him. That was a start. He didn’t want to let her down.

Despite the fact that she’d kidnapped him and nearly gotten him burnt to ashes, it was obvious she’d changed her mind about him. The sorrow in her face as she held him tight had told him as much. It had stirred strange feelings inside his vampire soul.

He felt a connection to the beauty standing next to him. It was something deeper than physical attraction. A desperate need to care for her, please her, and have her near. He’d never felt that way before now. It thrilled and frightened him at the same time.

He led her into town, her arm tucked under his the whole time as an added measure of comfort. When they walked into the small gas station on the corner, the cashier behind the counter gave them only the briefest of strange looks from behind his newspaper. He didn’t blame the man. Eina was barefoot in her shimmery dress and he still wore the tattered remains of his tux. They probably looked homeless.

“May we use your phone?” he asked the cashier.

The man didn’t look up from the sport’s section, but pointed over his shoulder. “Sure. Make it fast.”

Leo cradled the phone against his ear and dialed the phone number he knew by heart. Eina bounced on the balls of her feet, eyeing the cashier nervously, as if she expected him to sprout vicious canines and fur at any moment. After three rings, the line picked up and a familiar purr came through the phone.

“Rod? It’s Leo. Don’t tell anyone it’s me. I’ve got something I need you to do for me.”

The cat hissed in excitement and then spoke quietly. “Prince Leo? Where are you? Tell me you’re okay.”

“I’m fine. I’m in Monstrana.” He smiled at the concern thick in Rodrigo’s voice. He’d been the one to insist the cat get his own phone and learn how to use it, thumbs or not. “Miss me, or something?”

“Pssh,” the cat huffed. “Life is much easier when you’re not dragging me to illicit poker games every night.”

“You mean boring, Rod.” Leo grinned. “But listen, I need you to do me a favor. Don’t tell anyone, especially my brother.
