Chapter 27

Will descended behind Evan, landing on the soft grass in front of the house. Rain began falling once more. Evan hugged the unconscious man to his chest, shielding him from the chilling rain. On the bottom floor of the three-story mansion, a single window glowed from within.

A slender female figure stood silhouetted in the window, watching. Then she turned and disappeared from sight. Evan heard Will groan, but he paid his twin no mind. No doubt the vampiress was now telling Loren what she had seen. When they reached the front door, Evan kicked it open. He carried the man into the parlor and placed him on the divan near the fireplace. With an absent wave of a hand, Evan started a fire to life from the cold ashes.

“I want him.”

“Absolutely not,” Will argued. “If this is indeed the one you’ve been sent for, then he isn’t for you to claim.”
