Chapter 28

Enoch was working on his computer when Voronika laid a hand on his shoulder. He jumped, startled. He'd spent the afternoon, delving into the world of the mafia and crime lords.

"Lost in your own thoughts. You usually hear me when I come downstairs." Her yellow eyes danced with amusement.

He arched a brow, studying her. "You look rested. Did you practice battle moves today?"

She raised her chin. "We did that while you were working last night."

"Glad Amado's such a great teacher." He turned off the computer to go to the kitchen.

"How was your day?" she asked while he poured them each a glass of wine.

"Interesting." He began telling her about Danny bringing Gino in for questioning when someone knocked on the kitchen door. Enoch motioned for Voronika to step aside and went to open it.

"I heard I'd find you here." A leaner version of Gunther—tall, blond, and Viking—stood outside, only this vampire's blue eyes twinkled with humor. "Are you going to invite me in?"

Enoch held the door wide. "I was starting to worry about you."

"Me? The gods protect their favorites. I just finished some mopping up for Caleb." Ulrich was about to step inside when a stake whizzed toward him. Enoch reached out a hand and caught it in midair. "See?" Ulrich said. "Not a scratch." Enoch closed the door and a second stake hit the glass. When nothing happened, Ulrich raised questioning eyebrows.

"Bullet proof," Enoch explained. "Make yourself at home. I'll be back in a minute." He started out the door after the hunter.

"Let him go," Bart said, walking into the kitchen. "He'll tell the others where we are. We want to be found, remember?" He frowned at Ulrich. "What took you so long?"

"Have you been to Turkey? There was practically a whole town of crazy, young vamps there."

"Did they give you any trouble?"

"Only the brunette. She broke my heart."

Enoch smiled, shaking his head. "According to you, every female loves you and leaves you."

"Can I help it that women are heartless and cruel?"

Enoch's gaze went to Voronika.

An engine revved to life and a car roared down the road.

"A hunter must have followed me home," Enoch said.

Ulrich went to the window to watch the tail lights speed away. "No one followed you, old friend. A vampire trailed me here. I went slow enough for him to keep up."

"A vampire?"

"He was calling someone with directions on his way here. A good thing, too. It looks like the party hasn't really started. You must have been waiting for me."

Voronika tossed Enoch a scorching look and went back to Ulrich's earlier remark. "Was the vampire a rogue?"

"A traitor who's working with humans. How else do you think mortals could find so many of us while we sleep?"

Enoch should have thought of that, but he’d been concentrating on vampires sending humans to do their dirty work. "Lucky for you that you weren't staked before you stepped inside."

"The stake would have hit my shoulder, but thanks for catching it, E. I didn't bring a change of clothes.
