You need to stay in the safehouse with Bella and the newbie.\u201d I appreciated Lois assigning my sister to protect my mate. I trusted her more than anyone else. I locked eyes with Bella, and she nodded, silently promising me to protect Kathryn with her life. \u201cBut\u2026\u201d \u201cNo arguments,\u201d I told Kathryn. \u201cLet\u2019s get home. It\u2019s been a long day, and you didn\u2019t sleep well last night.\u201d That caught her attention. \u201cHow do you know I didn\u2019t sleep well last night?\u201d<\/p>\n<p>she asked. \u201cI could hear you tossing and turning. Vampire hearing, remember?\u201d She rolled her eyes. \u201cFine. But I want pizza for dinner then.\u201d My mate was cute when she was cranky. \u201cYou got it.\u201d We drove down to the safe house alone. Cassie was joining us tonight, but she\u2019d been tasked with picking up our pizza. As soon as we hit the freeway, Kathryn turned to me. \u201cI want to apologize again. I shouldn\u2019t have kissed you last night.\u201d \u201cI\u2019m glad you did,\u201d I replied.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was an incredible kiss. One of the best of my life.\u201d She frowned. \u201cOne of the best?\u201d I suppressed a smile. \u201cI mean, I think we can do better. Next time.\u201d \u201cSo there\u2019s going to be a next time?\u201d \u201cI think we both know there will be.\u201d Kathryn was silent for a few minutes before she spoke again. \u201cI don\u2019t understand this draw I\u2019m feeling to you. We don\u2019t even really know each other.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s the mate bond, it\u2019s hard to ignore for both parties,\u201d I explained. \u201cBut there\u2019s no reason we can\u2019t get to know each other better. Ask me whatever you want to know.\u201d \u201cHow old are you?\u201d \u201cThirty-eight,\u201d I answered. \u201cYou?\u201d I already knew that from her file, but I figured I\u2019d throw her a softball. \u201cThirty-five.<\/p>\n<p>What made you decide to join the military?\u201d \u201cBella and I grew up in a small town,\u201d I began. \u201cThere wasn\u2019t a lot of opportunity there. You know the kind of place\u2026 a lot of unemployed people sitting around drinking and moaning about how life did them wrong. Bella talked about joining one of the supernatural units in the military the entire time we were growing up, and then she enlisted the day she graduated high school.<\/p>\n<p>It seemed to work out for her, so I did the same when I graduated.\u201d \u201cSo it wasn\u2019t your dream to enlist?\u201d<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u00a9 2025 by Reba Bale ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.
