Leave the girl alone, Clete, and let's get back on the road, the tall driver said, and his voice had that I'm done with you edge to it. I don't know who this guy is, but I don't think he changes into a nutria.

I snuck a look to see how Eric was taking this, and he was staring at me the same way the Monroe vampires had. Thoughtful. Hungry. That's interesting, he said. I had a psychic once. It was incredible. Did the psychic think so?

I drank lots of water and orange juice and took a multivitamin and iron supplement for breakfast, which was my regimen since Bill had come into my life and brought (along with love, adventure, and excitement) the constant threat of anemia.
