Chapter Seven

Mia

Roxy stopped into the room to tell her they were leaving. Mia protested because Andy shouldn’t be traveling yet, but Roxy told her Typhoon had told them to leave, and they would leave before he did anything that made her honor-bound to kill him. After checking him over one last time, Mia reluctantly agreed that Andy was stable enough to travel so long as they used an ambulance. She checked in on the two who had been bitten and found them awake. By then, Jasper had let her know that he was awake and ready to start the day.

Mia carried Jasper in one arm, letting him nurse while she did a quick examination of the two shifters who had been bitten.

“How are you feeling?” she asked. She checked each of their heart rates.

The one on the left, Stephen, grunted. “Well enough, considering I got bitten by one of those fucking vampires. What was Twister even thinking?”

Mia shook her head. She didn’t know the details of what had happened, and she didn’t want to know, either. “That isn’t any of my business. My business is to keep you lot alive.”

Stephen grumbled while she finished the examination. As was her experience since Guinevere had revealed the trick to feed bitten shifters vampire blood, they appeared to be in perfect health.

“I think the two of you are free to leave. You’re not showing any danger signs. I’ll call someone to come pick you up.”

Stephen nodded tersely at her. Mia exited the room, plucked Jasper from her breast, and held him to her shoulder. She covered herself and patted his back. He fussed and squirmed until a large burp came out before settling back down. Mia brought him to her other breast, already looking forward to sitting while she made the call.

She reached the waiting room, and the distinctive scent of cigarette smoke wafted in through the window. Mia growled and marched for the door. How many times did she have to tell these idiots that there was no smoking on her premises? She charged outside, ready to start yelling, but was brought up short when a soft voice reached her ears.

“I don’t know if I can.”

The voice turned harsh. “You don’t think I know that? You don’t think I know that you wish things had been different?” She was shocked when she realized the voice belonged to Typhoon. His tone dropped again, going back to that same soft, pleading, vulnerable tone. The same tone he'd used the previous night, she realized. “It’s not that simple. It happened. Regardless of what either of us wants, it happened. I can’t just stop hating you because…because I want to. I don’t want to, anyway. I don’t want to forgive you.”

Who was he talking to that had him sounding so distraught?

Mia inched closer to the corner of the building until she could just see Typhoon's shoes peeking out from around the edge. She cradled Jasper in both arms and held her breath. Typhoon was so involved in his call that he didn’t notice.
