"Possible," he corrected. He thought for a moment then asked, "What color are her eyes?""Green, why?" I asked, stopping short when I realized that what he was saying was true. "Oh."Lance nodded, forcing a smile. "You really need to go talk to her."I nodded, knowing that he was right. After all, I couldn't go to a regular doctor, could I? "What do you think is wrong?""Well, I can't be sure, but it sounds like you might be with child.""With child?" I asked in disbelief. "Pregnant? No way!""What are your symptoms?" Lance asked calmly. "Besides craving blood.""Oh, my God!" I said, unable to believe what I was hearing. "I've been tired a lot lately, cold sweats, nausea, vomiting, and my stomach has a little pooch. It was always flat before. How could this have happened?" Then, a thought ran quickly through my mind. If I was pregnant, then it could be Steven's or Lance's baby. I had sex with them both within twenty-four hours of each other. "My God!""What else?" Lance asked a

When I stepped out of the bathroom, Lance was already asleep on my bed. I went to my closet and quietly dressed in a white button-down blouse, black slacks, and black pumps. "Have a good day," Lance said, sitting up. "If you need me, just call.""Okay," I said, giving him a light kiss on the lips. "Go back to sleep."He smiled, then rolled over and went back to sleep. I went downstairs and poured myself a cup of coffee. Then, I made myself some toast and slathered it with butter. It smelled delicious. I shoved it into my mouth, grabbed my purse, and headed out to the garage. The charred remains of the vampire were now just a pile of ash. It was strange that vampires burst into flames when they died. I stepped around the ash and slipped into my Mercedes.The drive to work was shorter than normal and, somehow, the sun seemed exceptionally bright. At a stoplight, I rooted through my purse and slipped on my Ray Ban sunglasses just as the light turned green. My stomach suddenly was d

The day went by pretty quickly and I didn't have another bout of nausea for the rest of the afternoon. I helped Mr. Shaprio with his back, prescribing him muscle relaxants and pain meds; set a middle-aged man's broken arm; and rushed to help a woman with chest pains, who ended up having angina and all before eleven o'clock in the morning. I decided to take Rosa's advice and silently vowed to leave for the day after I spoke with Dr. Ryan. I was just too tired to stay. I was going to have to watch my late night rendezvous. As I waited for Dr. Ryan, I wondered how she was able to be at the hospital so early, in the daylight. Who knows? Maybe she spent the night, or maybe there was another way that she could be in sunlight without bursting into flames. I made a mental note to ask her, in addition to other things."Leila, Dr. Ryan is out of surgery," Rosa said in a low voice. "I told her that you needed a minute.""Thanks, Rosa," I said, already headed down the hall. "Is she in her off

"Call me if you need anything," Rosa said, standing under the awning of the hospital with me, just outside the automatic sliding doors. "Thanks, Rosa," I said, slipping on my Ray Bans. "Rosa, I may not be home this weekend, but I'll have my cell phone if you need me." I pulled her in for a quick hug, and then hurried across the parking lot.She smiled. "Now, you tell that man to leave you alone and let you get some rest!" she teased as she headed back into the hospital. Before I could say anything, she waved to me over her shoulder and mouthed "Bye" to me, then disappeared. I shook my head as I walked across the street to the parking lot. I slipped the key into the ignition, clicked my seatbelt into place, and pointed my gray Mercedes toward home, unsure what I might find there. I sighed as my mind went through all of the scenarios of having a baby, not only a normal baby, but a supernatural phenomenon. My hand instinctively went to my stomach as I turned the car around a corner,

Stephanie's eyes flew open wide as a smile spread across her face. "You're pregnant?""No!" I said, suddenly shocked. She was a pediatric surgeon, after all, and was used to dealing with pregnant women. "No, I'm just not feeling well. Now, if you'll excuse me " I said, heading toward the bathroom, not waiting for an answer. "Honey, if you're pregnant, we can help you," Stephanie said, following me down the hallway. That was the last thing I needed. "I'm not pregnant!" I yelled just before I vomited into the toilet, having had just enough time to raise the lid."Leila," Stephanie said, standing in the doorway with her arms crossed. "If you're pregnant with Steven's baby, then we have rights as grandparents ""Get out!" I yelled, not in the mood to be having this conversation. "Get out or I'm calling the police!""Stephanie, give her time," Rodger said, pulling his wife gently away."Leave Steven's keys and get out!" I yelled, heaving into the toilet again. "If I find out that

I stepped close to Lance, letting him wrap me in his arms and I laid my head on his chest. His breathing was rapid, but his heartbeat was much slower than a normal human's. I guessed that was normal with vampires. Lance held me for a few minutes, neither of us saying anything. I just listened to the beat of his heart and the rhythm of his steady breathing. "I hope you don't mind that I intervened," Lance finally said. "But they weren't leaving, as you had asked."I took a deep breath. "No, thank you for that." I shuttered to think of what would have happened if Lance hadn't intervened. They were taking advantage of me in my weakened state. Between the nausea, losing Steven, and the emotional strain that I had suffered over the past few weeks, I was weaker than I normally was and they were determined to take advantage of it. "Do you think they bought it? That I was just passing by?" Lance asked, stroking my hair. "I really don't care if they didn't." I took a deep breath. "I'm so

Lance squeezed my hand as he sat beside me in the limo, on our way to Caprice Casino, his castle. Actually, it suited him well. I felt as if I was now living two lives: one was a Cinderella, rags to riches scenario; the other was in the normal world as a doctor. Now, the two worlds were starting to collide and I wasn't sure how it was going to end."I want you to do me a favor," Lance said as he squeezed my hand. "I'm afraid I might be too tired for that tonight," I teased, as a sly smile spread across my face.Lance laughed as he glanced out the limo, then back at me. "No, I want you to have fun this weekend. Everything else, we can deal with on Monday."I forced a smile, nodding my head. "I hope it'll be that easy.""It will be," he said, giving me a quick kiss on the forehead, still holding my hand. "Trust me."I smiled then nodded. I really needed a mental vacation and I was determined to allow myself the opportunity to have it, so I opted to play Cinderella and let Lance sp

Lance looked exquisite in his black Armani suit and crisp blue shirt underneath and matching silk tie. "You look wonderful in blue," I whispered as he headed toward the elevator. "It compliments your lovely green eyes." He smiled and bent down to kiss the top of my head, careful not to ruin my hair. "Thank you. You are too breathtaking for words." He gave my hand a gentle squeeze when the elevator doors opened into Club Moroii. Every eye was on us as we walked the rest of the way down, taking the long staircase into Caprice Casino on the bottom floor. Even the people playing the slot machines stopped to stare. I felt very much like a fairy princess going to the ball. Within minutes, we stepped through the sliding glass doors of the casino and Lance's black stretch limo was waiting for us outside, and his driver was holding the door open for us."Thanks, Frederic," Lance said. The driver gave him a slight nod as I slid into the car first, then he followed. Frederic reminded me of a

Leila reached over and took her from me. "Well, Amy and Angela went through a lot of trouble to organize a surprise anniversary party for us, so you'd better not disappoint them and look surprised."In the last several months since The Outsiders attacked and Leila was turned into a vampire, the cure had been perfected and several vampires were turned successfully back into humans. We had to set up a secret relocation program for them, as well, as they would no longer be able to protect themselves from supernatural creatures. Many of the innocent Outsiders were also turned into humans again, successfully. Once they had the cure, their bodies reverted back to their human form, to our relief. Also, Drake had built a private facility just for vampires going through The Change, headed by Amy and Elias. They both would be busy for a long time.I raised my eyebrows and opened my mouth, over exaggerating mock shock. "How's this?""Silly Daddy!" Sirena said as she laid her head on her mothe

"Something tells me that you won't need to bite your wrist for me anymore," she joked, suddenly sounding more like herself."Leila!" I said, crying openly as I pulled her to my chest. I pulled back and crushed my lips to hers, and she responded with all of the pent up passion that we both felt. "Leila, love. I'm so sorry ""Shush," she cooed, looking into my eyes. "It wasn't your fault.""Yes, it was!" I said, as tears ran down my cheeks. "I should have protected you. I should have been there for you!""Shush," she said, then smiled. "You were." I looked at her, puzzled. "You were with me in my heart. Before I died, you were the last thing I thought of; your face was the last thing I saw in my mind. I love you, Lance.""I love you, too," I cooed, "always and forever."Suddenly, the noise behind us began to die down. I helped Leila to her feet. Drake and Amy were behind us, still protecting us, having never left our sides. Amy was holding her scythe, and Drake held my sword. "Than

"Leila?!" I yelled at the top of my lungs as the screams of dying vampires resonated within the cave behind me. I closed my eyes for a moment and then silently prayed. "Please, help me to find them."I opened my eyes. As I looked at the caves, the one in the center of the humongous cavern stood out. I ran down the narrow path, throwing vampires over my head behind me as I ran, letting my coven tear them apart, and killed several at once, taking their heads off easily with my sword. I threw several against the wall with a wave of my hand, who were ripped apart by shifters. Then, I shoved my hand into the chest of another vampire with milky white eyes when he got too close and listened to his screams as he burst into flames. I jumped over his flaming body when I saw a faint light at the end of the tunnel, running my sword through another vampire that was coming at me. As he lay on the ground, I stomped on his throat and ripped his head from his body. As I rushed down the tunnel toward t

We ran over the rough terrain as the wind blew past us. The sun was high overhead, but the heat didn't affect vampires the way it affected humans. None of the elements did. We ran over mountains and even jumped over a gorge, not losing one vampire. Within minutes, the sound of running water rushing by filled my ears and I knew we were getting close. Soon, the black and red mountain peaks rose up before us. Within minutes, we were on the edge of Promontory Point, on the west side of the Hoover Dam.I looked down at the blue lake and at all of the surrounding igneous rock formations that created mountains, just as Xander came up on my right side. "She could be anywhere."Xander clasped a hand on my shoulder. "We'll find her." Then, he turned to his wolf pack, who had joined us. "Split up! Look for any sign of Leila and the baby!" Xander then began ordering his pack to go in every direction. Immediately, they leapt and turned into werewolves in midair, digging into the sand and pushing

I pulled the phone out of my pocket and dialed Javier's number."Mr. Steel," he answered on the first ring. "Who was standing guard?""Gregory and Cal," he said in clipped tones, knowing that I meant the penthouse"The Outsiders took Leila," I said, headed down the stairwell. "Round up some men. We're going after her. Meet me in the lobby in five.""Yes, sir," he said as I hung up the phone and dialed Ferdinand's number. "Mr. Steel?""How the hell did The Outsiders get into the castle?!" I demanded."The fire alarm sounded and there was smoke," he said, his heels clicking against the hard, tiled floor of the lobby. He was in the casino. "We were busy evacuating the guests ""While they came after my family?!""They must have come in the back way," Ferdinand said. "There was chaos ""Tell me about it later. We're going after Leila." I hung up the phone just as I reached the bottom of the stairwell, flung open the door, and looked around, spotting him walking toward me. The

I pulled out my cell phone and quickly dialed Adeline's number, but there was no answer. I shook my head, realizing how close I had come to becoming human. Just a few minutes later and I wouldn't have been able to save my family. I just hoped that I wasn't too late. I quickly dialed Javier's number as I headed out the front door of Kalyssa's cottage."Lance?" he said, answering on the first ring. Chaos erupted in the background as my heart sank."What happened?""Oh, thank God it's you," he said. "Leila has been ""I know. Xander just told me," I replied. "Where is she?" I was already starting to run, not waiting for Amy, Xander, and Elias."I don't know, but someone had to have taken her." Sirens sounded loudly in the distance.Anger filled my body. "Tell me about it when I get there. I'm on my way."I clicked off my phone and ran at super speed across the desert, faster than a car could travel. My vampire seethed for vengeance, pushing me harder, faster, as memories of the y

I woke in a cold sweat. Moonlight was streaming in through the window, piercing the darkness. Hunger rose within me; a hunger like I'd never known before. I needed blood and I needed it now. I rose from the bed and stalked toward the door.I could smell blood and it smelled luscious.My fangs extended immediately as I skulked down the hallway, closer to the delicious scent, closer to what I wanted, closer to what I craved. The scent grew stronger, more delicious, more tempting as I drew near and it was clearly, fully human. I placed my hands on the wall, beyond all reason, beyond sanity, as I inched closer to my target. I turned the corner, ready, as saliva rushed into my mouth in anticipation of the meal in which I was about to indulge. My heart pounded against my ribcage, as if it wanted this kill just as much as I. My vampire seethed within my chest, inching me closer, but when I turned the next corner it was Leila."My God, Lance! You scared me!" she said as she reached for t

"Have you thought of becoming human for her?" I asked in a low voice.Kellen let out a deep breath and sat back down on the couch. "Yes, I have.""And?" I knew that I was prying, but he had been a vampire for a very long time, and becoming human again was a big step.Kellen bit his lower lip, thinking, and then looked directly into my eyes. "Yes. I would do it. If I could grow old with her, I would do it in a heartbeat," he said without hesitation. "That's why I get it, Lance, between you and Leila. I get why you're doing this. I would do the same thing, if I were in your shoes."I reached out and clasped his hand, giving him a man shake. "What does Crissy say about it?"He shrugged. "She wants to become a vampire for me."I nodded. "And how do you feel about that?"He shook his head. "Man, I love her with all of my heart, but I don't want that for her." He pushed up from the couch, walked across the room, and then turned around abruptly. "I want her to go to college. To have

She smiled. "Well, after tomorrow, it won't be a problem.""Well, after tomorrow, you won't be able to find me.""Not until after the baby's born," Amy corrected. "After Leila's fully recovered, then you can go anywhere you wish.""Sounds good to me." For a moment, I wondered if we had another child and we were both human, would the child be human, too? But I brushed the thought aside. After this baby was born, we would have two children, which was more than I had ever hoped for."Well, I'm off," Elias said as he headed toward the door. "Amy, I hate to leave you alone with him in this state."She smiled. "I'll be fine. Go! Your patients await. I, on the other hand, am off from work for the next few weeks."Elias laughed. "Yeah, yeah! Don't rub it in.""You really need to take some time off, too, though."Elias laughed. "Well, with my staff taking time off ""Okay, don't you have to go?""Why? Trying to get rid of me already?""Yes! How'd you guess?"We all laughed when ther
