I frowned.
“Don’t make that face,” he chided as he eased into his seat. He took a sip of his own drink and his eyelids drooped until he gave me a sexy half-lidded stare. “You’re going to get wrinkles.”
“Succubi don’t wrinkle,” I assured him. “But seriously. How do you speak their language?”
He shrugged. “It must be an angel thing.”
“Great,” I thought out loud, not sure if it was good or bad that Luke was coming into his powers. With another glance at our impossible surroundings, I blew out a breath. “I don’t get it. How are we here?” My gaze flitted to the rooftops. I couldn’t see them, but I knew that we were still being watched.
Luke followed my gaze. “If I had to guess, your Blood Stone brought us here.” He nodded at my chest. “Maybe you should ask it.”
Sweat broke out when I realized that my Blood Stone had been quiet for quite some time now. “Hey, Blood Stone voice thingy, you in there?” I hissed.
Luke smirked. “Really? That’s how you commune with some ancient power inside your soul? You whisper at it and call it ‘Blood Stone voice thingy?’”
I shushed him, which only made him bark out with open laughter.
While I was enjoying the smooth sounds of Luke’s joy, I looked up again, and this time spotted the vampire.
Tall. Dark. Handsome.
Definitely dangerous, and looking right at me in a way that made my fingers clench around my drink.
If my Blood Stone wasn’t talking, then it had used the last of its power to bring me here, and I had a feeling that reason was in the sensual, red hooded gaze that looked down on me now. I needed answers, and there was only one way to get them.
I knew this vampire, and he knew me. A single rune I’d never felt before came to life, filling me with a burning need that completed the circle around my navel.
“Luke,” I whispered, not taking my gaze from the rooftops. “Stay here. I’ll be right back.”
It seemed that I’d found my fourth.
