Chapter 11

• I could barely hear the storm above in the dark basement. I leaned against Luc on the gym mat as he tried to rub some warmth into my arms. He paused briefly to shrug off his black jacket and drape it over my shoulders, then continued to impatiently run his warm hands up and down my freezing cold arms.
• "Aren't vampires supposed to be cold?" I asked through clenched teeth.
• "Everything is relative, Mia," Luc muttered before responding. Vampires are colder than humans, but they can succumb to the cold, especially when in shock."
