feeling off. “They were trying to make a point that was for
sure. Who were the people?”
    He
reached in his coat pocket and pulled out a little notepad. “Names were Alan
and Brianna Marshal. Young couple, no criminal history. They seemed pretty
normal; although I am now a little unsure of what normal is anymore,” he said
dryly.
    I
smiled and shook my head. “Everything is still the same, there are just new
variables to the equation.”
    He
scoffed. “Ya ok, if you want to call a freaking vampire and a hunter princess a
variable.”
    “I’m
not a princess, although I am from one of the most prestigious families among
the hunters,” I said as I walked out of the room and down the hall. The place
looked so ordinary. There didn’t appear to be anything out of place. It was
obvious that they invited their killer in. “There was no fighting so they let
whoever the killer was in. I am sure the vampire had them in a trance. They
probably didn’t even scream when he killed them.”
    “This
is just so fucked up,” he muttered as he looked at a picture on the mantle.
    “You
have no idea,” I said softly. Looking around the place made me want answers
even more now, than I did before. I was going to have to talk to Aubrey even
though I didn’t want to. I needed to know who killed these people. “Come on I
know someone we can talk to,” I said and walked toward the exit.
    “Oh
goody, more ‘people’ this should be fun,” he said sounding less than
enthusiastic as he followed me back to his car. 

 
    I
had him park near the opening of the alley that led to Luminescence. As the
night wore on traffic outside the clubs was picking up. I climbed out and he
followed looking around nervously.
    “You
know it doesn’t seem very safe walking down dark alleys,” he said as he
followed me.
    I
smiled as I approached the door of Aubrey’s bar. “Believe me if I didn’t think
we could get some answers here I wouldn’t be here,” I said amused.
    I
stepped into the bar and he followed staying close on my heels. I spotted
Aubrey sitting at a table surrounded by women. I put my emotions away before
walking in the door. I was on a mission, and that didn’t involve worrying about
my relationship with Aubrey.
    “Why
do I feel like the main course?” Nick muttered as he followed me deeper into the
bar.
    I
smiled. “I am sure you made your way to the top of some of the menus,” I said
amused.
    Aubrey
looked Nick over with a disapproving glare. “Who is he and why are you bringing
him in my bar?” he growled.
    “He’s
a friend and we are looking into a murder that happened last night. Do you know
anything about it?” I asked keeping my tone cool and calm.
    He
smiled, but it was an annoyed smile. “Come on Lillian, you should at least say
hi before you start sounding all accusing.”
    “It’s
Rayne, and I am not accusing I am asking,” I said firmly.
    He
looked amused as his gaze went back to Nick. “What does he have to do with
anything?”
    “He’s
the FBI agent investigating the crime,” I said as I glanced around. I noticed
we had attracted a lot of attention. I wasn’t so sure we were safe anymore.
Aubrey seemed like he was in a mood.
    “You
brought an FBI agent into my bar.” The anger in his voice was clear. He wasn’t
happy with me at all, but I didn’t care.
    “Yes,
you can trust him not to say anything,” I said watching him. I was daring him
to do something stupid. I wouldn’t have minded an excuse to knock him around.
My feelings for him made me angry. I wouldn’t have minded venting.
    Aubrey
scoffed. “I find it interesting that you are vouch for him, but you have known
me longer and you wouldn’t trust me enough to turn your back to me.”
    “You’re
right, but you are a vampire, he isn’t.” I could see my remark angered him, but
I didn’t care.
    He
stood suddenly and he was incredibly close to me. I could see Nick shift
nervously as his hand went under his coat more than likely to
