“He doesn’t have any fur.” I sway a little on my feet, my stomach rolling with hunger and forcing me to sit down next to her.How long have I been here?“He’s a sphinx. They… they get cold because they don’t have fur like…”

“Felix?”

I shake my head as my gut rumbles. “How did you know I’m a—”

“Your fangs.” I turn to her with a furrowed brow as she scoots closer. “The blood bag in your messenger bag burst. Scared the hell out of me. I thought I hurt you and when I was looking over your body to see if I had, I noticed your fangs. Are they always out like that?”

“Yes,” I grunt, closing my eyes against the way my head starts to pulse. “I’m not—I’m not feeling so hot.”

“Of course not, silly,” Zia says with a laugh. “Vampires are cold-blooded. You shouldn’t be feeling hot. Not yet, anyway.”

Unsure what exactly she means by that, I choose not to address it in favor of finding out the severity of the issue we’re both about to be facing. “How long have I been here?”

“Just a few hours.”

“Oh.” That’s a huge relief. If it had been longer, there is a pretty good chance I would have gone completely feral on her sooner than later, and whether she kidnapped me or not, we don’t need to go there. I’d prefer we don’t, anyway, but I need to get some coconut water or else I won’t be able to control that.

“What’s wrong?” Zia turns to face me completely just as my stomach screeches. “Felix? You don’t look so good.”

“I just told you I’m not feeling very well.”

“Did I hurt you? I did, didn’t I?” Suddenly, I’m shoved back onto the bed, my head bouncing off the mattress as my hands are smashed underneath me, and knees settle on either side of my waist. “I didn’t see any wounds, nothing that was obvious at least, but maybe I had you in the sleeper hold too long.”

Zia’s breath is hot on my neck as her dainty fingers turn my head, my eyes sliding closed while she pokes and prods under my chin and along my throat.

If I wasn’t so damn hungry, I’d be ridiculously turned on by this.

She’s straddling my waist, touching me all over, and now that she’s this close, I can smell Zia’s natural scent.

It’s spicy yet sweet, heady but light. It isn’t strong, but it’s overpowering at the same time, and I need to stop breathing it in or else hunger isn’t going to be the only thing I’m feeling.

And that can't happen.

Zia kidnapped me.

She choked me out on the way home from work, after she had been stalking me for at least last night.

She’s been mildly obsessed with me for a while, and I saw that obsession growing with each email she sent.

Zia is clearly unhinged and capable of doing quite a bit of damage despite her size, and that’s without proof that the smell of death somewhere in this house was caused by her.

I need to keep reminding myself of all those things because fucking my captor, no matter how pretty she is, how dirty her mind can be, or how lonely I am, is a one-way ticket to six feet under.

Thankfully for me, my stomach growls loud enough for Zia to hear, and she immediately stops poking around my body. “Was that you?”

I nod the best I can. “I’m hungry.”

“You need to feed?” She shivers slightly, but it was enough for me to feel in this position. “Is that it?”

“Yeah,” I whisper as my body goes lax. “It’s been too long since… since I had coconut water. I’m—I’m going to pass out.”

And just before I do, I feel Zia jump off my body and the bed, then hear her rush toward the door as she says, “I don’t know why the hell you’re talking about coconuts, but I’m going to feed you. It’s my job to take care of you now, Felix. And I’m going to take care of you forever.”

Oh shit.
