Leave me here, Syd ordered in her mind as he turned his head away from her wrist .

Don’t be stupid, Rebecca retorted and shoved her wrist back in his mouth.

There’s nowhere I can run they won’t find me, and I’m not going anywhere without you!

Syd just looked at her for what seemed like an eternity before he took her wrist away from his mouth. He turned over on his side and gathered her to him. He looked deep in her eyes for only a moment before his fangs found her neck.

Rebecca gasped and clung to him.

I thought you said it didn’t matter where you drank from, she thought.

Faster, was all she heard him reply.

She closed her eyes. Oh, this was warm. She was safe here. She heard a demon howl somewhere in the distance and didn’t care. Let them find her.

She was safe right here.

“I’m gone for three minutes and you two start making out,” she heard Billy say. “Let’s move before either the sun makes one of us toast or those Hell-goons get their heads back on straight.”

She heard Syd groan as Billy lifted him up and laid him in the trunk of the car. He shut the trunk and knocked on it before he returned and grabbed Rebecca. Before she knew it, she was in the passenger seat and Billy was back behind the wheel, in his human form. They were speeding toward the rising sun, and he looked over and smiled at Rebecca.

She put her head in her hands.

“Aw, Bit,” Billy said. “Don’t.”

His sympathy made it worse and she couldn’t hold back her frightened tears anymore.

“How about some pancakes?” Billy said. “No, too late for pancakes at home, unless you want to go to that twenty-four hour waffle place. How about that? How about some waffles?”

Rebecca just looked at him. Billy grinned at her.

“You can’t eat waffles looking like that,” she said. “They’d throw us out or call the cops or both.”

“You ain’t cryin’ no more, are you?”

Rebecca choked on a half-sob, half-giggle and sniffed hard. She wiped her eyes and shook her head as she smiled for him.

“There you go!” Billy said. “No crying. I can’t stand a woman crying.

Let’s get you home, you can patch me up—I’ll even shower if you want me to—and let Syd get some rest. I’ll get us some waffles, and we’ll figure out where those bastards have the punk hid.” Billy looked in the rearview mirror. “Sonofa—”

“Oh, no,” Rebecca groaned and slid down in her seat. “Not again.”
