up to his lips. Then, when he opened his eyes, she caught his gaze and smiled.
    He smiled back and wrapped his arms around her again, pulling her close. “Good morning, beautiful. I didn’t make you sore did I? I know I got a little carried away and kept you up most of the night.”
    “No, I’m not sore. I had a great time. Last night was amazing.”
    “It sure was.” Marcus smiled, glancing over at the clock. He rolled his eyes and muttered, “Shit.”
    “What is it?”
    “I gotta go get ready for work.” He got up and slipped on a pair of boxers. “Are you okay with using the shower at the agency?” He thought about taking a shower with her, but knew that if he got her in there, they would definitely be late for work. It seemed he couldn’t get enough of her and by the pressure in his lower region, he knew it was true. He needed to change the subject quick before he threw out all his good intentions and grabbed her.
    “Yeah, that shower was actually better than the one at my apartment. I can wait ‘til we get there for coffee and breakfast, too. I noticed you had the fridge and cabinets stocked with food.”
    “That’s probably because it doubles as food for the guests and for the employees. Everything there is so organized, just how I like it.” Marcus answered, but his thoughts were, ‘ Damn, changing the subject was a bad idea. Discussing food isn’t helping, because now I’m thinking about the taste of her. I needed to get in the shower fast and it’s going to be a cold one. ’
    “I prefer it to be that way, too.”
    “I’ll be out in a few minutes,” he said, hurrying and closing the bathroom door.
    While Marcus was in the shower, Selene put her clothes back on from last night, brushed her hair, and brushed her teeth in the kitchen. She was glad she had plenty of time to grab what she needed at her apartment before she took off with Marcus. She had hurried, and surprisingly, it had only taken her a minute to do all three things. She decided she had better slow down as to not accidentally slip up and attract unwanted attention when she’s in public.
    Only five minutes later, Selene heard the bathroom door open from where she was standing in the kitchen, and she thought, ‘ Wow, he’s fast, too. Geez, this new supernatural ability would have come in handy for all those days I was worried about being late to work. ’
    She rounded the corner and saw him standing there; the only thing he had on was a towel wrapped around his waist. She made eye contact with him and grinned as she looked him up and down. “Looking good, handsome.”
    “Not looking so bad yourself, gorgeous.” He smiled as he studied her gorgeous figure for a moment. He loved the way that outfit looked on her. Hell, he imagined probably any outfit would look great on her, though. She is just naturally beautiful. He also knew how she would look without the outfit on, which he preferred a whole lot more.
    While Selene packed her belongings back into her bag and made the bed, Marcus got dressed and shaved.
    Hand-in-hand, they walked out the door, locking it behind them. Upon exiting the building, Marcus noticed something strange about his car; there was something written on the windshield.
    “What the fuck?” he muttered as they read the sloppy, red writing.
    It read, ‘I’m coming for you, Selene.’
    Selene’s heart skipped a beat in her chest and she felt light-headed. The murderer really was following her. She hoped Marcus had been wrong in his assumption.
    Marcus studied the writing, concluding out loud, “It’s written in blood.”
    “It figures!” she said, throwing her hands up in the air. She was frustrated and starting to panic. “There’s a psycho killer following me, and now he’s writing messages to me in blood. What the hell is next?!” She knew she was panic mode, but couldn’t help herself. She didn’t know what she would’ve done without Marcus there. She would probably already be dead.
