didn’t know you could cook.”
    He smiled. “I can do a lot of things.”
    Okay, point for Vance…for the cooking, I mean. “Quit dodging the subject. I want to know about Maria.”
    “Maria’s a vampire ,” he said.
    I glared at him. “Duh. How and when did she become one?”
    “About thirty years ago ,” he replied. “I don’t want to talk about how she got that way.”
    “Why not?” I asked.
    “Because it’s bound to start an argument and I don’t feel like arguing with you right now.”
    “Why would it start an argument?”
    “Next question.”
    I huffed. “Ugh! Why do you evade all of my questions?”
    “I’m not evading all of your questions. Just anything relating to Maria’s transformation.”
    “So, in an attempt to avoid an argument about one subject, you start one about another?”
    “You’re the on e picking a fight here, Karli,” he said. “Not me.”
 
    I crossed my arms. “Whatever.”
    “Are you done?” he asked.
    I dug into my eggs and counted to twenty before I spoke again. “So what are we going to do about her?”
    He sighed. “I don’t know. I made some calls earlier and found out where she’s staying. I’m thinking about confronting the problem head on.”
    “What do you mean?” I asked. “Are you actually planning to go see her?”
    He shrugged. “Yeah.”
    “Wouldn’t that be …hard? It doesn’t seem like you two parted on the best of terms.”
    “We didn’t, ” he confirmed. “But my feelings are irrelevant here. I need to find out what she knows about you and then I need to figure out the fastest way to get her out of town.”
    “Should I be worried? I mean, she didn’t outright threaten me but when I read her it was pretty scary.”
    “What exactly did you sense from her?” he asked. “You were pretty vague last night.”
    “Violent tendencies ,” I replied. “Well, at least until Chad walked up to us.”
    “Chad was there?”
    “Yeah.” I cleared my throat. “They actually left together.”
    He raised his eyebrows. “Seriously?”
    I nodded. “I tried to talk him out of it, but he wouldn’t listen to me.”
    “Hmm.”
    “Hmm?” I repeated.
    “Yeah, ” he said. “Hmm.”

    I finally managed to convince Vance to let me leave since Maria couldn’t venture out in the daylight. Work was pretty busy since it was Friday and thankfully my shift went by without incident. He was waiting for me as I was closing the slotted gate that border ed the casino floor.
    “What are you doing here?” I asked.
    “I couldn’t track Maria down at her hotel so I’m following you home,” he replied.
    “Is that really necessary?”
    “Yes, Karli, it is. We can’t be too careful until I know what her motives are.”
    I sighed. “Let’s go.”
    We got back to my place about twenty minutes later. I threw my keys into a little silver dish on my end table and turned towards him. “So, now what?”
    He smiled lasciviously. “I don’t know …you tell me. What should we do to keep ourselves busy?”
    I rolled my eyes as I walked down the hall. “I’m taking a shower.”
    “Need some help?” he called.
    I slammed and locked the bathroom door in response. A fterwards, I walked towards my bedroom with a towel wrapped around my body. I didn’t think to grab any clothes beforehand since I normally wouldn’t have to.  I wasn’t entirely surprised to find Vance making himself comfortable in my bed. Oh God, his arms were stretched out, accentuating his perfectly sculpted muscles. His chest was bare and it was begging me to touch it. I had no idea about the waist down since he was under the covers, but I found myself wanting to know really badly .
    I shook it off and clutched the towel to my chest. “What the hell do you think you’re doing?” I snapped.
    He folded his arms behind his head and reclined against my pillows. “What does it look like I’m doing?” he asked. “It’s late. I’m going to bed.”
    I shook my head
