Chapter Eleven

Sam

My mouth tingled and my skin hummed with a sort of after-glow. Even as I relived the memory of Alex kissing me, my temper flared. I was pissed at myself for enjoying it even after everything. And I was pissed at him for coming back here and toying with me in the first place.

The moment Edie was done with him, I planned to tell him that before he walked out on me a second time. He needed to hear it from me: there would never be a third.

The next time I saw him, it would be to heal him. I planned to keep my promise, to save his life, and then spend the rest of mine rightfully pissed for what he’d done. When I found him to cure him, it would be me who waltzed in, achieved my purpose, and then turned my back and walked out.

The hall was empty as I made my way to the cafeteria Edie had mentioned. White tile floors glistened underfoot, my boots making slight screeching sounds on the waxed surface. God, this place was clean. I mean, hospitals were supposed to be, but they never were. Beyond the smell of bleach, I had always suspected germs and bacteria coated every surface. But this place was pristine. It practically gleamed with sterility.

It was also pretty empty of nurses and nowhere did I see a Restricted or Staff Only sign. I had a feeling it was all or nothing here. Either you were cleared for entry or you never made it past the front doors.

When I reached the end of the hall, I turned the corner and entered the dining area clearly marked by a nondescript sign on the wall. The lights were on but dimmed. All of the other tables were empty. I wondered at that but then my stomach grumbled and, rather than contemplate the lack of visitors, I made a beeline for the kitchen area.

It was set up like a serving line, cafeteria style with gleaming stainless steel rods to set a tray and slide it along as you made your choices. Everything sat behind the glass casing, refrigerated or heated as necessary. It looked a hell of a lot better than the food back in my high school cafeteria—or the plane food we’d been served hours ago.

At the sight of the steaming macaroni and cheese, my stomach grumbled. Carbs. Glorious, soul-comforting carbs. It was exactly what I needed right now. I grabbed an empty tray and moved down the line toward the hot food. An older woman appeared behind the glass counter, a plastic hair cap wrapped over her brown hair. “Hello there.” She wore a white apron and a pleasant smile as she waited for me to decide.

“Hello,” I said brightly.

I wondered if she was a Hunter or just someone’s grandma they’d hired to serve here. Then I thought of Edie and realized she was probably both.

“What can I get for you?” she asked.

I ordered the mac and cheese and a slice of pizza that I hoped hadn’t been on the warmer too long along with bottle of water.
