Read on to find out... ------------------------------------------- Keitel staggered unsteadily to his feet and loomed over Lucia. His palm slammed down heavily on the door behind. He was so close Lucia could feel his breath on her neck. She shuddered. His hair escaping over his eyes, he looked down on Lucia. Keitel's face was slightly red. "I said get out." He breathed. Lucia stared back into his piercing blue eyes unwaveringly. Keitel sniffed and pulled in close. His skin brushed against Lucia's cheek. His hot breath tickled her ear. "You really had me fooled." He whispered. "Is this still part of your game?" Lucia tried to move away. His other hand came down on the door... --------------------------------------------- Quick update: I now have new stories which are spinoffs from this one: 1.)

Chapter 15: Lucky

Michael gritted his teeth. Was Clover just playing games with them? Maybe the ruse had already been discovered. Michael noticed Clover's eyes scan the length of the door. At this point, it sat slightly ajar. Clover's eyes narrowed.

"How strange," Clover remarked, "it is my first time being summoned. Does the door normally open during a summoning?"

"How should I know?" Michael cut in quickly, "Enough about that. Be serious. Will you consider our deal or not?"

Keitel felt the hilt of his blade. All the anguish Clover had caused over the past year was fresh in Keitel's mind. Wouldn't it be better just to kill Clover now? And, oh how Keitel wanted to kill clover. If only Lucia hadn't intervened the first time. Back when Clover was weak, it would have been easy. But, now who knows how strong Clover had become?

Keitel squeezed his hand into a fist to draw it away from his blade. He would have Lucia back. No matter what it took. Keitel ducked down to one knee.
