Lost Paradise
““I’m glad you’re back,” he said softly. “I missed you.”
“I was barely gone,” I said lightly, worried he wasn’t going to let me go home on Sunday.
“Seemed like days to me,” Devlin purred, then pulled me close.
We dozed for another hour or so. About seven, Devlin stretched, looked at the clock, and abruptly swore. “I’ve got to go,” he said, hurriedly pulling on a suit. “I’ll be home about one, maybe two. Tomorrow night will be later still.”
“No rush,” I said, giving him a smile. “I’ll be here.”
“...Good,” he said giving me a quick kiss.
“Don’t work too hard,” he called, his footsteps fast on the stairs.
After he left, I lay in bed a while, thinking about how much fun this all was. It was like a mini vacation, even with the filing. Suddenly, going home didn’t have the luster it had back this morning.
I sat up, then hurriedly dressed. This had to be the result of the blood Devlin had given me yesterday. I’d better make sure Danial gave me a good bit of his on Saturday.MoreLess
