shoulder.
“Come to bed, darling.”
Those words did not surprise her; it was never enough for him.
Call of Night 5
A knock on the door would disrupt their entire night. Xavier stood before his brother not sure how to say what Julius would not want to hear.
“The club, someone set fire to it.”
When they arrived to the velvet room there was nothing but ashes. Katya could feel Lily’s presence lingering in the darkness; Julius was too distracted to sense it as well. It was the second club he’d built that had been destroyed; those who were inside never made it out.
Julius knew there would be a price to returning to Thornton Lake, he also knew it could be death.
“We should go; there is nothing we can do here.” Katya’s voice often calmed him, although he couldn’t deny the rage which filled his head.
At the mansion, Julius stayed in his study for hours. Katya took that time to seek out her sister.
The lake was always her favorite no matter what hour it was especially as a child. Their parents owned a small cabin and when they would argue, the lake would be Lily’s escape.
It was like looking at a ghost.
“Surprised to see me?” Lily asked not knowing what else to say, the expression on Katya’s face gave her the answer she needed.
“Why would you come back here?” Katya asked curiously, “with all the memories?”
Lily’s strawberry blonde hair reminded her so much of their mothers, she couldn’t help but wonder why she hadn’t been blessed with such beauty before her immortality.
“Because, Katya memories are all I have now; you’re boyfriend took away the only life I had.” Lily didn’t like confrontation especially with family; she was always known as the quiet one. It was funny to her how things had become very different.
Call of Night 7
“You blame me for this?” Katya stunned by Lily’s reaction.
“You invited him into our house that first night, making father and I vulnerable.” The last thing Lily felt was pity for her dear sister.
“How was I to know he was a vampire?” Julius’ voice rang in her head now, he was curious as to where she had gone.
“I think you know more than you’re telling.”
And quickly as soon as Lily finished that sentence, thick fog rolled through and Katya vanished into the night.
Micah waited for Lily back at his motel room. The desert sun motel was on the outskirts of Thornton Lake, he never planned on staying. She came in as soon as the rain started to fall. The look on her face told him things didn’t go well.
“Do I need to ask?” Micah closed and locked the door behind her as she stood in the center of the room.
“What do you think?” Lily replied.
“We need to leave this place, it isn’t safe.” Micah suggested, “When Julius senses our presence and it won’t take him long, it won’t be pretty.”
It wasn’t enough for Lily to change her mind.
She was on a mission, a dangerous one and would not be satisfied until it was completed.
