Chapter Eleven

Baby

It was almost comical—almost. Hunter has about three expressions, and only two of them were visible at any given moment; one was a predatory grin that told you he was about to fuck some shit up, and the other was a stony blankness that passed as his every-day look. It revolved on a hundred to one split, from what I’d seen. The third expression I’d witnessed exactly one time, and then dreamed about, in detail, for the next nine months.

But this… This was special. Both of his black eyebrows flew up on his forehead and his mouth fell open, showing off how lush those lips really were when they weren’t pinned in a straight line. I almost laughed; I mean, it’s funny, right? It’s funny.

And also horrible.

The Rose, as she called herself, did not shift into anything recognizable during our little chat. No shred of her that would be identifiable as human in the regular world showed up, and I’m including her personality in that statement—she was the worst kind of monster in the world. The psycho worked her way up to it, though; she didn’t just come right out and say, hey, listen girl, that big-ass redneck I blackmailed into kidnapping you? Yeah, you need to hand that dude your V card sis. Peace.

That would’ve been funny too, but no.

Hunter stared at me for so long, that same expression on his face it actually made me wonder for a minute if maybe my obsession was one-sided. I mean, it was entirely possible I’d dreamed up his responses to me at this point, right? We kissed ages ago. I’d been reliving it periodically, sure, but maybe the whole thing… I mean, our brains are funny things.

“Why?” His voice was rough; it matched mine, in a way, catching on something in his throat before it joined the air.

“Because of magic,” I said, and sighed, crossing my arms over my chest and looking at him closely. “They really didn’t—”

“They didn’t tell me anything,” he rumbled, still frozen where he stood, staring down at me, his eyes unreadable now as his face returned to its usual blankness. “Nothing. I had no idea what was really going to happen when I—” He stopped short and stared at me. “Did you sign the book?”

“I haven’t yet, no.”

“But she…” He swallowed again, and I realized for the millionth time in the last six hours that I really didn’t know him. Not like my body kept trying to convince me that I did.

“So, when you left, she said the Society dealt in real magic, which I believed, of course, because I’d just seen some douchebag strangle me from across the room while you turned into something from the zoo.” I considered. “Or maybe Supernatural—you ever watch that—”

“Miss.”

“Right. So she explained that I was from the Keller family, which is one of the founding families;” I glanced over at him again, and he was watching me closely, but I still couldn’t read an expression on his face.
