“We cannot let the blood ritual happen. If it does, then Kesh will rise to full power. Even with his clan cut in half, he will be unstoppable. Why haven’t we attacked? They are sitting ducks.”

The dark-haired white woman, dressed in an all-black, tight-fitting leather jumpsuit and shiny black thigh-high boots, stood beside a tall, pale-faced blond man dressed in a sweeping long black leather trench coat and pointed-toe black boots. They watched four others fight with swords. The woman’s arms were behind her back as her eyes traveled along what appeared to be a makeshift battleground.

“You have trained them well, Calum,” the man said, rubbing the bottom hairs of his blond goatee.

“Thank you, my love,” the woman said, accepting the compliment. “I have been working with them day in and day out. While Kesh is letting his clan live like they are normal humans, I am training ours for war. A war that they are anticipating and wish to engage in once you give the order. Why are we waiting so long?”

“Because the time is not right,” the man told her calmly.

“It has been two months, Tulum. If not now, then when? Kesh could very well be planning to uproot today. If he does that, we will waste another six months trying to find him.”

“He will not leave. I see how in love he is with the mortal girl. He hasn’t told her the truth. Therefore, she will not go with him. So, he will not leave.”

“How can you be so sure?”

“He is in love,” Tulum answered matter-of-factly. “He will not leave her behind.”

“Love means nothing!”

“Calum.” Tulum turned his head to look down at her. The struggle between admiration and anger rippled across his features. “Do you know why I chose you as my queen?” he asked.

She shook her head.

“Because you were always the only one who was ever bold enough to question my motives. And not only that, but you were the only woman in my whole life ever to catch my heart,” he mused.

Calum blushed and took his hand in hers. “Yes, my king. I remember. When you found me, I was barely clinging to life. My clan was barely surviving against the witches and the werewolves. An entire clan of women would never fare so well alone . . . with no king,” Calum remembered, the tiniest smile easing over her mouth. “I talked them into following me, with no real game plan. We were starving and living in the woods, drinking from animals, when you made your appearance.”

“Yes, and I was rogue, on a mission to avenge my maker’s death. A drifter vampire, with no purpose in life except the murder of all black vampires,” he said. He snatched his hand from Calum and cracked his knuckles. His face turned red. “The moment I looked at you, with those beautiful brown eyes and that genuine soul, I had to have you,” he said, his voice drifting.

She lowered her head. “I know it took a little persuasion to follow your lead, but that was because of my fears.
