Later that night, I surveyed my closet and dithered over the choices. I felt a little nervous about meeting Micah, and going to a club. I'd never been to one before and didn't want to wear the wrong thing.

Faded jeans and T-shirts made up the bulk of my meager wardrobe, but it didn't seem right to wear my working clothes to a club. I pulled out a pair of nice jeans along with a black turtleneck and a dark red v-necked sweater Mom had given me and showed them to Fang. “Which sweater do you think is most appropriate for a club?"

I was kidding, but Fang took my question seriously and regarded the clothing with a critical eye.

Neither. He nosed through my closet and poked a long-sleeved white blouse with his nose. Wear this with the floral vest. It'll hide the stakes.

Good point—after being surprised by vamps last night, I didn't want to go anywhere unarmed. I put the outfit on that Fang had chosen, amused by the thought of taking fashion advice from a hellhound. Then again, it had to be better than my nonexistent style sense.

Gwen can help you with the face paint. She's good at the girlie stuff.

True. And Gwen was more than happy to oblige. She helped me put on a little make-up and loaned me a cute pair of dangly earrings.

She stood back and looked at me approvingly. “There. You look more feminine ... softer."

"You really think so?” I had no experience with these sorts of things, but I kind of liked this softer side of Val.

Totally rockin', babe.

"Oh, yeah,” Gwen said. “Trust me, you look hot."

No, no. That wasn't what I was going for.

But not too hot, Fang amended. Just right for a club.

I relaxed a little. Good—I wasn't going there to find a boyfriend or anything ... just Micah Blackburn.

So why was my stomach churning like a blender set on puree?

I knew my expectations were way too high. No one could be the combination of family, mentor, and best friend that I longed for. Realistically, I'd be lucky if he would at least agree to meet with me. But I had to try.

"Thanks—I appreciate your help.” I said to both of them.

"No problem,” Gwen said. “Have fun."

I sent a question to Fang, asking if he was okay sitting home.

Yeah. Clubs are noisy and the people there just act stupid.

Okay, I'll come by and get you if we go hunting.

Fang settled in happily with Gwen, so I went to Dan's townhouse and knocked. He answered, looking really good in jeans and a soft navy blue sweater.

Dan took in my appearance. “Very nice. I've never seen you look so ... feminine."

My face heated and I felt suddenly awkward. I wasn't real used to compliments and didn't know how to react. My eyes locked with his and I couldn't help but sway toward him, like he was a magnet and I was a hapless pile of filings.

Wow—he smelled great, with a musky, compelling, primal scent. Lola agreed, sending a warm tingling through my body, urging me to combine my yin with his yang.
