you crazy long before you sin and kill me, an innocent, so settle the score now and buy a damn mirror."
Preacher laughed because he knew he was beat, fuck this human blindsided me, us. I wished I could go back four days ago. I would have driven faster, made it home ten minutes earlier, and I would have been deep inside of her driving her body to come when the fax came. The end result would be the same but at least then the fire would be sated.
Refusing to think of her naked and willing like she was the other night I went on.
"6- Last but not least I will try and always be close but if for some reason I am not and you find yourself in trouble, there is only one rule I live by and so will you. Kill first and ask questions later." I paused to hand her a syringe and vial. "The vial contains enough liquid silver to kill a hundred Vampires. You only need a small amount, small as a speck of sand to kill one. Puncture a vein though, be certain of it because otherwise you will be dead before you can try again."
The look on her face was simple and calm but she was throwing off some serious emotions. She was terrified and I knew I had gone into overdrive with the info, but I needed her to be on the ball. Then I looked down at her hands and it kinda broke my heart. They were shaking, quivering as she twined her fingers together and tried to appear like she was ok with all I was giving her. Her strength blew me away.
"Fuck, I'm scaring you." I said and reached for her hand. I was breaking the rules with her but I was overwhelmed trying to keep her safe. Looking at her, her bright green eyes were big and full of 'I can do this’; her pouty lips making me want to scream in want. I brushed my thumb over her hand, stroking gently trying to calm her nerves. "We will always be close Princess. You won’t need to use that vial, it’s precautionary."
She nodded and her eyes became curious. "How do you know I won’t use it on you?"
Fuck, yeah good question. I wasn’t thinking strait. I gave her the holy grail of killers and didn’t even think of her turning on us. "Because I trust you enough to know that you believe we really want to keep you safe. Without us you will die." It was the truth and I seen the revelation in her eyes. She pocketed the vial.
Good Girl.
I knew Preacher was watching me, seeing what I was starting to feel for her. I wanted her and now I had given her the one thing that gave her the upper hand and his question was the same as hers. Why the fuck was I trusting her?

Finally at the bar I went to get out of the van and follow Preacher who I enjoyed more than panting over Cacius. Why did I want him? I thought I was past this infatuation thing? Then I remembered he didn’t answer my question. I grabbed him by the arm to stop him and I could feel the steel muscle beneath. He turned and looked at my hand on his and I scooted back against the tin paneling of the not so sheik van. "You forgot to tell me, why didn’t the Vampire Infatuation work with those Jack the Ripper guys?"
He sighed and squatted on one knee and drew the other close. "Now's not the best time, ask me when we get what we need."
His tone was accommodating and his eyes too kind and it made me melt sure but I wasn’t a fool. He was using his infatuation on me now, had to be. "No uh-uh Cacius stop because it won’t work." I lied.
But his stare stayed kind and his voice. "It has nothing to do with my tone or how I look at you, I have no power to control you Princess, the infatuation
