Soul Mates: Deceptions

We lay talking and touching for a long while, and I was just about to doze off when my skin prickled. I

opened my eyes and looked around, expecting to see someone else in the room with us. I sat up slowly, try-

ing not to disturb Lucien and Xander who were passed out beside me. The door to the library was still open.

I frowned and got up, walking over to close it.

I guess we'd fucked Xander for anyone else to see.

I closed the door quietly and walked back to the blanket. Anger filled the air and I looked at Lucien and

Xander, who both seemed as peaceful as ever. Great. Now I was imagining things. I shook my head and lay

back down beside Xander, snuggling up close. He sighed and turned his head toward me, but didn't open his

eyes.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, honey. Just closed the door."

"Okay."

I listened to Xander's quiet snoring, the pop and crackle of the fire in the fireplace, and the tick-tock of the

grandfather clock in the corner for a long time, trying to convince myself that the queasy feeling in my

stomach was just my imagination. And then I remembered that I hadn't had a damned thing to eat in over a

day and realized it was finally getting to my head.

Sleep was slow in coming, so I lay there beside the two most important people in my life and just closed my

eyes, thankful for a thing called forgiveness. My eyes flew open a little while later, and I stared up, expect-

ing to see someone hovering over me. That weird fucking sensation of someone else being in the room was

strong and I just knew someone was watching us.

I nudged Xander with my elbow. "Xander?"

"Hmm?"

"Is there someone else in here?"

He opened his eyes and looked at me, brow creased with concern. "What's wrong?"

"Just a bad feeling."

Xander sat up slowly, scenting the air. "Someone's been here, but they're not here now."

"Who?"

"I don't know." He shook his head. "Vampire or something; not human, not a wolf."

My stomach turned and I leaned over, shaking Lucien's shoulder gently. "Lucien, baby, wake up."

His eyes fluttered open and he sat up quickly. "What's wrong, Peter?"

"Someone was in here with us while we were sleeping," I said. "They're not here now, but Xander says it wasn't a wolf or a human. And…"

Lucien reached across Xander's lap to touch me. "What is it, lover?"

"I think whoever it was, was pissed off about something. You two were sleeping and this… this anger just

filled the air. Figured it was all in my head, but now?" I shook my head. "I'm not so sure."

"No one in their right mind would come in here right now," Xander said softly.

Lucien growled and stood, looking around the room. "Everything seems in its place."

I ran a hand through my hair, sighing. "Let's just get out of here. I'd rather be in bed, anyway."

Xander and Lucien both agreed and started gathering up their clothes. I found my pants, but they were too

dirty to put back on. Lucien kicked a few pillows around and hunted for something on the floor.
