Chapter 19: Let's Go Fly a Kite

Liliana's POV

The day began with a gray blanket of low-lying clouds. Haze from the unending onslaught of mizzle permitted not a sound or sight into the hushed second-floor apartment. Turning from the window, Liliana picked up her mobile and looked at the home screen.

Nineteen missed calls from 'D. Xander.' Three voice messages. A single text containing just a few words, 'please call me.' Each one is unanswered.

Tossing the phone back on the counter, she frowned and headed into the bedroom to dress. Love was supposed to be undying. Nowhere was it sung about being lucky with the undead. The knowledge of Darick being a vampyre was knocking the life out of Liliana. And she wasn't sure how and when there would be a relief.
