They were all still naked and sated, at least temporarily, having had a blood bag each and enough sex to last a human for a decade, and Zara knew it was time.

“Let’s do it,” she said and kissed Sarah on the shoulder.

“We should pick a continent first, maybe,” Alexia suggested as she rested her head on Zara’s shoulder.

“You want to move to Antarctica?” Sarah teased.

“No. Well, maybe. The cold doesn’t bother us as much as it does humans.”

“Shut up.” Sarah laughed. “Not Antarctica.”

“We can go back to America, just not the East Coast. We were in New York in the beginning and, obviously, DC, so we would need to be careful.”

“Or, we could stay in Europe,” Sarah suggested.

“South America?” Zara tossed out.

“Where?”

“There’s a house in Chile or in Brazil. I think there’s a smaller one in Peru, too.”

“Yeah, it’s on the list,” Sarah confirmed, reading from her phone. “It’s a three-bedroom, so we would each get our own room.”

“But the one in Brazil has four rooms, so we could have a room for all three of us, too,” Zara noted.

“The one in Chile is in the mountains, and it’s larger. I kind of want to move that special room we have here.”

Sarah winked at both ZaraandAlexia.

“Oh, thatspecialroom, huh?” Zara teased.

“Hey, you love that room, too. We used it yesterday.”

“I do love it,” Zara said. “And I think we should leave Europe for the next ten years or so; at least, to live. We can still visit if we want, but not Florence and maybe not Italy unless we’re very careful.”

“I love it here,” Alexia said, looking outside their large window.

“Me too,” Zara added.

“I know we’ve been saying ten years, and Iro told us to stick to ten, but maybe it can be more?” Sarah asked.

“We should be careful. People who knew us as humans are very much still around, and Florence is a popular vacation destination. People we knew could always come here, see us out and about, and wonder why we left or how we ended up here,” Zara reasoned. “Later, maybe we can come back and stay a little longer.”

“So, we’re packing up and moving to… Chile?” Sarah asked.

“It’s remote,” Alexia said. “We might be able to stay for longer, and it looks beautiful.”

“So, Chile?” Zara asked to make sure everyone was on the same page.

“Yeah, let’s do it,” Sarah replied and tossed her phone onto the bed.

“In a month, we’ll be living in Chile,” Zara confirmed.

“I’m going to hop in the shower,” Alexia said and rose from the bed.

“Okay,” Zara said.

Sarah moved into Zara’s lap then and asked, “Hey, are you happy?”
