Chapter 5

The few hours that we had of passing into complete unconsciousness were among the best that I’d had in recent memory, none of our aches and pains bothering us as we just focused on bundling up close and letting sleep overtake us. Sure, there was the overhanging anxiety of what state the city was going to be in when we woke up, but all of that could be put at the wayside for the time being.

When we awoke it was to the smell of something delicious drifting under the door, me being the first of us to rouse from slumber given how plain hungry I was after everything, even more so than the vampire who had been used as a magical conduit and the hunter who had been fighting and beaten quite badly the previous night. Well, whatever the reason was I wasn’t going to turn down a possibility of free food, which if it was the same quality as the bottles of near ancient liquor that they had stored in the cellars here was almost certainly going to be a treat.

“Hey, Vincent, Damon, wake up…” Light shoves to their shoulders weren’t waking them, they really were completely wiped from what had happened. Not that I could blame them, but right now they were standing in between me and free food because I definitely wasn’t going to go without them. So here I would have to stay, pushing and shoving at their limp, unconscious forms hoping that sooner or later I would get through to them.

Not today, rest was only one of the things that they needed, a full, healthy meal was the next. Well, Vincent needed blood primarily, but I wasn’t going to be able to give any to him on an empty stomach, that just wouldn’t be healthy.

“Just one more hour,” Damon groaned, laying his hand on my wrist to stop me from pushing him any longer, “Comfortable here.”

“You need food, actual food type food, then you can come back and sleep for however you want alright?” Stepping out of bed, I grabbed their wrists and pulled them upwards, the two of them standing shaky and tired eyed in front of me in maybe one of the most adorable displays they’d given me. “Come on, it’ll only be for a little while.”

Practically leading them by the hand, we stepped out into the main room and followed a corridor deeper into the mansion, led by the smell of meats and sweet pastries that I hadn’t smelt since I was a little girl, memories of days spent at my grandparent’s house and sitting at the table while they prepared a plate of freshly baked sweets, my heart almost bursting in my chest from the rekindled feeling. Whoever they had working for them clearly
