now.”
“Well, it doesn’t feel like it’s working,” he grunted.
Sarah raised an eyebrow.
“What happened when the other Shield touched you? Porsche?”
“Nothing,” Liam replied. “Literally, nothing. I stayed human. ”
My cell phone rang then, and Liam gave me a look. He was snarly and angry, and I knew that he was trying not to show how much pain he was in. Pulling it out, I saw it was a number I didn’t recognize. Raising my own eyebrows, I pressed talk.
“Hello?”
“Hello, can I speak to Amy, please?”
“This is she.” I wanted to back away to hear better, but I knew I couldn’t leave them alone.
“Amy, my name is Aphrodite, I’m a producer at Sites TV.”
“Oh! Hi!” I said, surprised. I had seen Sites TV a few times, they visited all the hottest spots in various cities around the world. But why in the world would the producer be on the phone with me?
“We’ve been in talks for a while with Leopard Academy about doing a Site visit, and after we heard your story, we’d love it if you could be the host for this episode.”
“Me?” I really did back away then, grabbing Sarah and pulling her back as well, to keep her out of danger. This was really my life right now, talking about hosting a TV show while my boyfriend was turning into a vampire. God. “Really?”
“Sure, you’re a great performer, I caught you in Gatsby, and your story as the scholarship winner and as the girlfriend of Liam is quite interesting. I think you’d be perfect.”
“Does Liam know?” My eyes went to him as he sank against the wall, his fists balled up.
“Well, he’s surely aware that we will be filming there. I’ll probably have to call to…”
“You can talk to him right now!” the words flew out of my mouth before I even thought about it. From his place on the wall, Liam gave me a glare. I took the phone off my ear, placing my hand over the mouthpiece. “It’s Sites TV! They want me to host a segment!”
Liam rolled his eyes, and motioned for Sarah to come closer as well. The chains jangling, he took the phone, his eyes relatively clear , and put it to his ear. We placed our hands on him again.
“Hello ?... Yes… Yes, once or twice… urg.” He shifted, and reached for Sarah’s hand, placing it on his neck. I gave him a quizzical look, but he shook his head. “Yes, that will be fine… I’m sure she will be… Yes, alright. Have a good day.” He snapped the phone off and handed it back to me.
“Did you know they were considering me to host? Oh my God!” I couldn’t contain my excitement and I turned to Sarah, who was grinning at me. “You have to let me interview you! You can be my like student tour guide around the school.”
“I can’t believe it!” She was just as excited. “I love Sites!”
“Ladies .” Liam tried to get our attention. “I appreciate your excitement, but I’d like to draw your attention to the situation at hand.”
“Right .” I tried to contain my enthusiasm, taking a big breath. “Focus. Sarah, Focus.”
We lasted about 3 seconds before Sarah burst out talking again. “When is the episode going to air?”
“Ok .” Liam shook us both off him.
I noticed that his eyes were perfectly clear and that his fangs had barely come out. Whether he was still feeling pain or not, Sar ah was clearly having an effect on him. “Thank you, my dear, but I think both of you need to get out of here.”
“Right .” I pulled back. “I’ll see you for breakfast in the morning and we can talk about this?”
“I’m counting the hours,” Liam replied, with a softness I hadn’t heard in a while. He leaned down to give me a quick kiss and then pulled back before anything could happen. My heart trembled a little, leaving him there all alone, but I knew that it was for the best. “Go on.”
“Love you,” I said, just as softly, and then
