Til Death (Immortal Memories)
“My hand’s on the doorknob, undoing the deadbolt, and I crack open the door, turning my face to hide the remnants of the bruises spanning my cheek. I gasp, relief flooding through me, happiness verging on exaltation so welcome after weeks of worry.
“Hello, Rachel.” And as before, I hear the mountains and the evergreens in the snow. “May I please come in?”
Of course he can come in. I close the door so I can remove the chain and swing it open for him. A smile lights his gray eyes, warming ...his handsome face. His hands are shoved into his pockets, slightly rounding his broad shoulders. Anger chases away the smile the minute he sees me. It’s like watching the utter destruction of something beautiful. There’s no way to hide the fact that this is a vampire on my doorstep. A predator. A monster.
He sweeps into my home, closing the door behind him, moving so quickly the door should have banged shut, only it happens in utter, eerie silence.MoreLess
