“He harassed that girl right in view of Anna,” Rion adds.

“It was suspicious,” I concede. “So that’s why you wanted me to ignore what happened and let Rion take care of it?”

“He was the least noticeable since he has his speed and could help the woman without drawing attention. The suspect didn’t even stick around and show more interest in the girl. It doesn’t make sense,” Felix says.

“So, you think he’s suspicious? Now what?” I ask.

“We do this again and see if he comes back,” Aksel says.

“Alright.”

Thirty Four

Anna

I work five more uneventful shifts before the suspect shows up again.

He waltzes in, gaining attention as he goes. This time he doesn’t even glance toward me as he sits at a table off to the side.

I have to stop myself from glancing at where the others are hidden.

Tonight, Blaze had something else and didn’t come but the other four are here.

Two hours later and the man is still at his table.

Someone else steals my attention by sitting at the bar in front of me.

“What can I get you?” I ask.

“A whiskey coke please.”

I don’t give him more focus than a small smile, barely taking in his blond hair and lanky features.

He hands me his card when I set his drink down.

“Open or closed?” I ask about his tab.

“Keep it open, I want to spend more time with you.”

His words make me stop short. I’ve been flirted with more times than I can count working behind this bar.

Time for a polite refusal.

“I have a boyfriend, but thank you.”

More than one and they’re terrifying if you upset them but I won’t mention that part.

“I don’t see any boyfriend.”

I can feel Griffyn and Felix’s annoyance through our bond. I’m sure they’re dying to come stake their claim but they can’t.

I ignore this guy while I serve everyone else.

My shift ends when the suspect decides to leave. Marvelous timing for me to corner him and find out if he’s my stalker.

I can’t keep doing this game.

I’m a badass vampire, I refuse to be afraid of a human male.
