Chapter Three

Jackie

I woke up long before sunrise, blinking in the dark of the unfamiliar room. I couldn’t see a clock, and I’d left my cell phone plugged into a wall outlet on the desk. Closing my eyes again, I tried to will myself back to sleep.

“Are you frightened?” Lucas spoke so close to my ear that I nearly jumped out of bed.

“Gah! Well, I wasn’t before, but you just scared me to death. I thought you were asleep.”

He rolled onto his back, the covers rustling as he settled again. “No. You’ve been restless. And I keep thinking about tomorrow. Well, today, I guess. About what’s going to happen.”

I swallowed back the rising tide of terror. “It’ll be fine. It’s just . . . it’s something that has to be done, right? That’s what Cathryn said. And we’ll all be safe, because Cathryn may be a lot of things, but reckless she is not.”

“I thought you hated her.”

I rolled my eyes even though I knew he couldn’t see me. “I don’t hate her, per se. I hate the idea of her. I hate that you had hot monkey sex with a woman over a decade younger than me whose body parts are all in the right place.”

The bed shook, and I realized Lucas was laughing.

“Stop that.” I smacked his shoulder. “It’s not funny.”

“Oh, it really kind of is. And thanks for the comic relief.” He slid his hand under the covers to palm my breast. “Feels like all the parts are in the right place to me.”

“Good golly Moses, Lucas. We’re confronting evil tomorrow morning, and you want to get frisky?”

He shifted to his side, bringing his mouth close to my ear again. “Yeah, I do. I think it’s only right that I check out all of your body. You know, just to be sure it’s put together right.”

I opened my mouth to make a smart-assy reply, but before I could, Lucas had sealed his lips over mine and was teasing me with his tongue. I gave in and wrapped my arms around his warm back.

“I need you, Jackie.” His voice lost its teasing quality. “I need you to be wrapped around me, and I need . . . to taste you.”

Desire surged within me. The first time Lucas had bitten me while we were making love, I’d been equal parts freaked out and turned on. After all, I was a pretty vanilla type of girl. All of my sex up to that point could be best described as typical. Ordinary. Boring? Yeah, maybe. Mrs. Mac, my octogenarian next-door neighbor, had forced me to watch that famous movie about domination, and I’d nearly lost my breakfast. The idea of pain under any circumstance didn’t sound fun to me, but pain during my most intimate moments? No, thank you.

So the fact that having Lucas drink my blood during sex made me hot wasn’t something I quite understood about myself. I tried not to think about it too much.

He pushed the sheet down to my hips and tugged up the hem of T-shirt.
