bushes just beyond the light of the fire.
     
    The tall thin guy still lay in camp, blood no longer flowing from his neck.  I either needed to dump him in the weeds with his buddy or drain him as well.  It had been a while since I last ate.  It looked like I'd be draining him as well.
     
    Craig was beyond sound now.  He sat there watching me with wide eyes instead.  I looked to Trevor while I ate.  He sat on the ground with his knees up and didn't move.  Back before the meteor shower, a guy like that wouldn't have given me the time of day.  Not that I was ugly, at least I didn't think I was.  Long raven hair, big blue eyes, full lips and a fairly decent body, I just wasn't the flirty sort of girl.  Meh, who was I kidding?  I've always felt a bit plain.  If I stood still long enough, guys could see right through me.  I certainly didn't feel that way now.  I guess mutation becomes me.
     
    When I was done with the skinny guy, I dragged him out to the bushes to lay next to Gabe.
     
    Tonight had been a rather exciting night to end such a boring day.  I knew of a couple more silos that had not popped yet to go sit on and wait for the people to come out of them in the next few days.
     
    I found another shirt to wear.  The one they had torn off of me was a favorite of mine... only one of two shirts I had.  I was now down to one shirt.  I needed to find some people in my size soon or I'd have to go naked.
     
    As I sat by the fire, I looked again to Trevor.  He was still sitting in the same position as before.  I went over to him and removed the shred of shirt from his eyes.  His emerald orbs stared furiously at me.  Smiling, I brought my face close to his so as to see how deeply I could peer into his eyes.  Trevor sat quietly and stared back.  I could tell this man was not used to backing down.  My smile widened.
     
    I pulled the gag gently from his mouth and helped him to his feet.  “Come sit by the fire.”  He sat down with no fight but his eyes never left me.
     
    I watched the fire crackle after kicking one of the logs further into the flames, sending tiny little orange embers into the black sky.  Reminded me of fireflies back home.  I sighed.  I'd never see home again.  Things would never be the same.
     
    “Why.”
     
    Trevor's voice caught me off guard.  “What?”
     
    His eyes were hard.  “Why am I bound?  I tried to help you.”
     
    “Obviously, I didn't need help.”
     
    “Obviously.  But that doesn't explain why I'm tied up.”
     
    “I don't trust people.”  My eyes lifted from the flickering light of the fire to look at him.  If it were possible for someone to stare a hole into another, he'd be doing that to me.  Might as well tell him the truth, for the most part.  “and I needed a... toy.”
     
    He blinked.  “A toy.” His voice held his confusion.
     
    I nodded.
     
    Trevor was silent for a moment.  “What sort of toy?”
     
    I turned my head to the side and sighed.  “For sex.”  I watched his face for a reaction but he just continued to stare at me.
     
    “A sex toy.”  Trevor clarified.
     
    I nodded and looked back into the fire while he let it sink in.  I don't know why I was expecting a look of disgust from him, but I was.  Too many years of being the shrinking violet, I guess.
     
    “Seriously?”  Trevor was still staring at me. 
     
    I continued to watch the flames hungrily lick at the logs.  “Does it sound like I'm joking?”  I could only imagine how horrified he was at the prospect of having sex with me, but who cares.  My prisoner, I make the rules. 
     
    After staring at me for a minute longer, he started laughing.  His smile lit his whole face, making him even more attractive than before.
     
    Irritation starting rising in me.  What the hell was so funny?
     
    “You don't have to force me to do that.”
     
    I glared at him.  “What... you're good with fucking some random stranger... after she killed two men with
