“LET’S TRY THIS again, shall we?” Officer Nichols’s smile was
strained and tight, any patience she’d had was long since gone. “What were
you doing in an abandoned warehouse at two in the morning?”
Under the table my leg bounced up and down, the only sign of my
nerves.
“What does anybody do in a warehouse at that time of the morning?” I
quipped, unable to stop myself.
What could I say? Anxiety and fear made me a tad snarky.
Getting picked up by a cop while in the middle of a job was a new low
for me. I could only hope no one had seen. Otherwise this whole experience
was going to play havoc on my already shaky reputation.
What kind of vampire got caught by humans? A ridiculous one, that
was for sure.
Officer Nichol’s glare was heated, fueled by the frustration of the past
few hours. “You help me, and I’ll help you.”
From hard ass to friend in less than a minute. It had to be a new record.
“I’m not sure what help you’re thinking I can give. I already explained
my reason for being there.”
Many times, in fact.
Officer Nichols consulted her notes. “Right—you threw your phone
over the fence and went to retrieve it.”
I shrugged. “That about sums it up.”
Officer Nichols sat back in her chair, irritation settling on her face.
“Would you care to explain why you threw it in the first place?”
I folded my hands in front of me, one thumb brushing against the
smooth metal of the handcuffs I wore. Truthfully, they weren’t much of a
deterrent. Even with my baby vampire strength, I could snap them and be
out of here in seconds.
Of course, that would out me as something supernatural. My world
didn’t have a lot of rules, but it did have one. Don’t expose the human world
to the spooks.
Which led to the real crux of the situation. Soon, that fiery nemesis of
all vampires would rise, and I’d lapse into a sleep so deep it would appear to
be a coma.
Officer Nichols would have a hard time explaining why her
interrogation subject keeled over. No doubt there’d be tests, the results of
which I couldn’t afford getting out.
I grimaced internally. I was going to have to make the call.
There would be endless lectures and many “I told you so’s” and “what
were you thinking’s”. If I could avoid it, I would, but talking my way out of
the situation had yet to work in my favor.
“I got some bad news,” I lied.
Nichols folded her arms over her chest. “You think this is a game?”
I shrugged. Not really, but what she was asking for—the truth—I
couldn’t give.
