Chapter 11 – So Much for Keeping Secrets

“Ana? What are you doing?” Dani asked sleepily with a yawn as she padded into the kitchen.

“Getting some warm milk. I’m sorry I woke you.”

“S’okay. Weres are notoriously light sleepers. Can’t sleep, huh?”

Ana shook her head.

“It’s your body trying to tell you something, you know. You should listen. Hook-up with my brother. It’ll get him off the rag and he’ll have you so exhausted, you’ll sleep for days.”

Ana sighed, pulling the milk out of the microwave and stirring in some vanilla and sugar. A few residual tingles sparked up occasionally, but mostly, she just felt spent. Is this what it would be like if she gave in to her body’s lustful urges? If not for the whole terrifying I’ve-bonded-with-a-vampire mental aspect, it might not be so bad. Then again, Dani wasn’t talking about Vlane Masterson. Things would be even more complicated with Matt.

She handed the mug to Dani and began to make another for herself. “I don’t think it’s that simple, Dani.”

“Sure it is. He’s a male. You’re a female. You’re both obviously hot and bothered by each other. What’s the problem?”

“He said something about marking me.”

Dani’s eyes grew big. “Wow. Are you sure?”

Ana nodded. She didn’t know much about the process, but she was pretty sure it went way beyond conversion or even sex. Marking had to do with ownership, and that was some serious stuff. Granted, it would provide a means of protection against the scary vampire haunting her dreams (no matter how erotic they were, he still terrified her), but that was no basis for a marking. And as much as she liked Matt and found him incredibly attractive, she just wasn’t ready for that.

Besides, how could she allow one man to mark her while she consistently dreamt of another?

“Wow.”

“Yeah.”

“Are you going to let him?”

Ana shook her head.

“Why not? I’m mean, you like him, don’t you?”

“Yes, very much. But I’m not ready for that level of commitment, and I’m not convinced he’d be doing it for the right reasons.”

Dani thought about this, her youthful brow drawn into the slightest of furrows. “You think it’s some misplaced sense of gratitude for what you did for me?”

“Maybe.” It could be that, but it could be many things. Ana had considered them all, time and time again. The reasons covered a wide spectrum of possibilities, the most harmless being a mutual, physical attraction clamoring for completion. Another suggested she was nothing more than a pawn in an ancient pissing contest between the two races (she blamed that paranormal romance for breathing life into that particular idea).

The worst embraced her biggest fear: Matt wanted her for reasons that had everything to do with her unique abilities and nothing to do with her. She didn’t want to believe Matt was capable of such a thing; in fact, he had never given any kind of indication he was anything but honest about his feelings, but Ana had seen too much “unintentional” greed to completely stifle the niggling doubt.
