“I wouldn’t say annoy. I’m just surprised. Do you know how many people would love to be in your shoes? Asked to be turned instead of asking?”

“No, can’t say as I do,” he says. “How many have asked you and you declined?”

“Hundreds. More probably.”

“Really? That many?” He sounds surprised.

“Yes, that many.”

“I guess I am more surprised that you told that many people what you are.”

“A thousand years’ worth of Feeders and acceptors is a long time, Cade. A long time to be alone.”

“You don’t seem very alone to me.”

“Not now, no. But there was a time when I was very much alone.”

“Want to tell me more about this Lance? It might help with the research,” he says casually.

“Erm, well as I said, he was evil. He took me and held me captive for about twelve years,” I say just as casually, still tapping my nails on the table.

“Captive?”

“That’s the nice word for it.”

“Oh. I guess then you don’t really want to talk about it?”

“Not really.”

“Did he hurt you?” he asks softly, and I am more intrigued as to his tone than the actual question.

“Yes. A lot. But it was a long time ago and he is dead now.”

“Is he?”

“What do you mean?”

“Seems to me, he lives on.” He taps my temple and I pull back.

“Maybe. I think it’s time you tell me more about your ex-bosses as well. Are you considered a traitor?” I ask.

“Yes, so is Nico and the others who have defected.”

“Are you in any danger?”

“Yes, if I get found, but it doesn’t seem likely. Those Romani you have are pretty damn powerful.”

“They have you cloaked?” I ask.

“Yes. That is why Nico has been safe for so many years. I’m not worried,” he says casually.

“Okay, but do let me know if you feel you are being hunted,” I say with a frown at him, but his face has closed off completely and I know I will get no more out of him than I already have. It’s quite a bit though and I am glad we had this chat.

I sense Cole at the door and magick on a robe now to Cade’s amusement. I am grateful to see my husband after this weird day.

“Want me to stay?” Cade asks as I get up to kiss Cole.

“No, you have been more than helpful today. You may go and do your own thing.”
