‘‘—-still as nosy as ever, I see.’‘ the vampire rasped before uncrossing her arms and stalking closer, carefully. Like approaching a wounded animal, except Selena wasn’t afraid that this one would flee from her gentle touch. One hand cupping the younger blonde’s cheek, the other traced the trail of blood that came from one corner of her mouth, tasting the iron from the tip of her finger before full lips parted. ‘‘And easily surprised.’‘
Eve wanted to back up, to flee, but she could feel the burning aura of Selena, smell her, practically taste her in the air. The progeny was frozen to the spot with that spiritual bond that kept the older vampire and herself tied together. Why hadn’t Selena just been done with it and released her? Maybe she liked playing games too much? Maybe it was a punishment from the universe? When her cheek was touched Eve’s eyelids fluttered rapidly and it felt like her still, cold heart may have lurched back to life within that very moment, but the progeny knew for her own sanity she had to at least attempt to resist- even if just a little “I-I...I won’t...I can’t...Let you do...This again to me...” she stammered in a desperate tone, panting for breaths her lungs didn’t actually require.
