had a strong effect on her. There was no mistaking that. “Oh, I know very well who he will seek out. You. The only vampire that has something against me.” Megan took a step closer Jillian who took a step back. Insecurity was showing in her eyes. “And what do you think will happen with you then?”
The both women watched each other during a crushing silence. The atmosphere was thick with pressure and tension. One second Jillian looked ready to lung e for Megan. In the next she was not so sure anymore.
“That's right,” Megan said to kill the silence. “I think you know very well what will happen to you then. Kill me and you sign under your own death certificate.”
This could go either way. Megan maintained her ground. She was tense, ready for anything, but all she could do was pray that she would somehow get out of this alive.
Jillian's gaze suddenly darkened and an even darker smile spread on her face. “I'm willing to take my chances,” she said before she attacked.
Chapter 20
Jaromir had never believed that things would turn this way. He had never felt more embarrassed in his whole life. Jillian had walked in on him and Megan at the exact moment that he had climaxed. He had been unable to stop his scream of pleasure even if he had known that she was in the room, watching them without shame. And then Shane had walked in, making things even worse. It was as if they both had forgotten that he was their king, but he wouldn't punish them. At least not Shane. Shane was his closest friend and also his right hand. Shane hadn't left the room because he had been worried. Jaromir also knew that Shane would keep this to himself. Jillian, on the other hand, was a different story. She had become increasingly crazy over the years. Yes, vampires had a tendency for possessiveness, but Jillian's possessiveness wasn't healthy. There was a thin line between being protective and overprotective. Sure, he would kill and defend for what he held dear, but he was also wise enough to know when to back away. Jillian didn't. She demanded without ever considering his wishes and desires. She had managed to push him away because of that.
Jaromir thought of Megan. Within a few hours , he had become more addicted to her than he had ever been to a woman. His whole body screamed that she was the one he had been waiting for his entire life. She was his mate even if she didn't know it yet. He would do anything to win her love, but if she still refused after several tries, would he be able to let her go? His heart ached painfully from that thought, but deep down he knew he would let her go. It was torture for a vampire without his mate once he had found her, and he knew that it could kill him. Without her, he would wither slowly away and eventually end his suffering, but he didn't want to force Megan to live her life with him. In the end, it was her choice, and he refused to become like Jillian.
Jaromir took a deep breath and shook the feeling of a possible failure off. Hopefully it would never go that way. If he played his cards right , he would win Megan's heart, and get a great hunt in the bargain.
Jaromir stood in front of his mirror with new clothes on after a shower to get rid of the stickiness between his legs. He had decided to go with something simple like black jeans and a black shirt. Who knew, he would maybe get dirty again. There was still about three hours to go before the clock turned five a.m. His whole body itched to go out there again, to take a sniff in the air and track Megan down. But he was worried. Had she left? Or had Shane managed to talk her into staying? If she had left, he would track her down and give her the blood, he decided. If he wanted to win Megan's heart then the last thing he needed was her sister dead.
There was a knock on the door.
“Enter,” Jaromir said while he corrected his black shirt one final time.
The door opened and in came Shane. Jaromir tried to stay cool, but he desperately needed
