“So you told her.”

I swept past Agata, who stood in the kitchen. She’d made a huge breakfast, high on protein, something I’ve found necessary to supplement the lack of feeding from my bond.

“Some of it, yes.”

“How did she take it?” she asked, handing me a plate and the newspaper.

“Astonishingly well.” Actually, I wasn’t surprised. Nadya had never appeared weak, just confined by the strict, over-protective rules her father had set up after her mother’s death. “If anything, I’ll have to be even more vigilant with her. She already asked to go through the portal.”

She gasped. “You said no.”

“Obviously.”

Agata made a tsking sound and gave me a suspicious look.

“What?” I asked her.

“How much did you…share with her?”

“I had to open her mind to show her the portal,” I replied, knowing well she wanted more information than that.

“Are you going to make me ask?”

“Ask what?” I scanned the paper, looking for any inconsistences—any potential problems.

“You’re such a brat. Did you feed on her?”

I ignored her, instead focusing on an article about a murder several days before. The police had finally identified a suspect, and I squinted at the grainy photograph.

“I asked you a question,” Agata persisted.

“I heard you and I’m not answering that question.”

She sniffed. “You’re too cranky to be well fed. Would you like me to prep the feeder?”

I folded the newspaper in half and stood. “No time. Looks like I’ve got work to do.”
