The Vampire & the Reporter
captive. Come with me. I w ish to speak with you someplace where we will not be interrupted .”
     
    “I don’t think that’s such a good idea.” Kyra still couldn’t bring herself to look at him. She knew her resolve would be lost if she did. She couldn’t explain it, but the man… creature… whatever he was, wrecked havoc on her senses. She wasn’t herself around him, had proven her lapse by givin g herself to him last night .
     
    “You test me with your denials. Our destiny is together. It has been written since before our births. All that is left is for us to complete the bond ing .”
     
    “And if I don’t want that? I have a life back in Chicago, complete with friends… and William.” She’d almost forgotten him in all of the madness. A twinge of guilt washed over her.
     
    “You will not mention him again,” he raged, whirling her around in a swift motion that left her head spinning. “Do you wish this man’s death?”
     
    “Of course not,” she replied breathlessly, staring up into the storm that was his eyes.
     
    “The n you will submit to me fully.”
     
    “I… I can’t…” she protested as he swept her up in his arms, cradling her as if she were a child.
     
    “You must and you will.”
     
    With supernatural speed, he moved . It seemed only seconds had passed before they were inside a room in the depths of the castle. At least she thought it was the bowels, although its exact location was blurred by their speed of travel she’d had the distinct impression they were traveling down. The darkened interior obscured any view she might have of what was in store for her.
     
    “You ar e one of the Worthy.”
     
    He settled her onto a soft surface. A bed. Her pulse quickened.
     
    “The only true mate to a vampire. My true mate. ”
     
    She inched away from the sound of his voice feeling behind her to avoid an unexpected drop off . “ Vampire? Wow, you’re really trying to sell the whole package aren’t you? Well the dark brooding thing you have down I’ll give you that much, but you’ve come on just a little too strong with the whole seduction of the unsuspecting tourist bit. ”
     
    “This is no game Kyra.”
     
    “All right, all right, for the sake putting an end to this experience. Let me just say you’ve stumbled onto a gold mine here. You’ll have everyone on Team Edward beating down your door for a stay, and I’ll even write a banner review…just stop this right now,” her voice waivered at the end of her speech.
     
    S ilenced yawned.
     
    “How is you know nothing about your heritage?” he asked softly.
     
    He was closer. How was that possible, she hadn’t felt any movement? “You know, I’m having a hard time trying to hold a conversation in the dark you want to hit a light or something?”
     
    “Your family has never talked to you about the Worthy?”
     
    She remembered hearing the French man say something about it earlier. Wh at the hell was it supposed to mean ? Worthy of what? Even if she had an idea of what he was talking about Kyra didn’t feel inclined to answer especially since he insisted on talking in the dark. If the ploy was meant to unnerve her it was working.
     
    “ Your kind was made for mine. You, specifically for me.”
     
    “This makes no sense.” She shook her head in denia l, gasping as he encircled one ankle in his large warm hand , dragging her back across the distance she’d gained. The feel of something soft encircling where his fingers once were had Kyra jerking for freedom with fervor.
     
    “What are you doing?” She managed to sit up as her second ankle was bound. A hand pressed against her flat abdomen, pushing her back onto the surface.
     
    “No!” she protested, as each wrist suffered the same fate as her ankles. The bonds were secure but with enough slack to allow her slight movement in her limbs. She was trapped, with a man who seemed to be taking this Dracula thing just a bit too far. Left with little
