I stood on the deck of the ship we’d stolen from the US government, the sea
wind rinsing my hair with the scent of every creature she held in her briny
womb. If our enemies found us, they would, as my young friend Charlotte put
it, “blow us out of the water.” And they wouldn’t care about destroying the
seven hybrid children who were still onboard. That was Charlotte’s opinion, at
least. I rather thought they would try to take those walking, talking little
experiments alive. They were, after all, bred and trained to be weapons.
Vampire killers.

I could only hold the glamour I’d cast for so long. I had to rest. And my
attention was divided, to say the least, by the little ones who had been known
as The Offspring.
One in particular.
Sooner or later, the government’s secret anti-vampire troops would find us.
We had to get the children off the ship.
But right then, at that moment, we were safe. The night was beautiful. And
I was in the arms of the man I loved beyond reason. My Roland.
“If it can’t be Egypt, my love, then it must be the rocky coast of Maine. I’ll
have it no other way,” I told him.
Roland crooked a dark brow at me as if I’d claimed it was raining in the
Sahara. Momentarily, that distracted me from our dire situation. He was so
incredibly beautiful, standing there with the silent night sky, glittering stars, and
ancient rolling ocean as his backdrop. He had the strong jawline and proud
nose of nobility, the cheekbones and full, sensual lips of a leading man, with a
deeper than usual dip in the center of the top one. I had a hard time keeping
my own mouth away from that sexy upper lip of his. Furthermore, he had the
body of a god and the piercing, hypnotic eyes of a vampire–for that’s exactly
what he was. As was I.
Roland sensed the arousal in my blood. I knew he did because he smiled
very slightly, and his eyes sparked. Then, knowing he had me at a disadvantage,
he tried his ever-present logic on me.
“Rhiannon,” he said, “we are in the northern Pacific Ocean. Pacific. Not
Atlantic.”
“The Pacific and I do not get along,” I said. “She’s full of predators who
make our kind seem mild by comparison, one of whom took your leg, lest you
forget.”
“Not bloody likely to forget that,” he said with a resigned look down at the
ingenious mechanical prosthetic the vampire Killian had made for him, all
from items found aboard The Anemone.
I touched his arm, sorry to have brought up what was, for him, a painful
subject. We still didn’t know if his leg would grow back. Our kind regenerate
and heal during the day sleep. But I’d never known of a vampire with an injury
so severe who’d survived long enough to make it to his bed. If Roland’s limb
was going to grow back, we’d seen no sign of it.
