Brynna's prove. I woke up sometime before noon. I wrapped my robe around me as I come out of my bedroom that was in Xander's house. Xander's bedroom door was closed and I figured him and that girl was sleeping. I turn on the coffee maker as I get in the kitchen. I pour the cup of coffee when I heard Xander's bedroom door open and close.
I see that the shutters didn't shut to close off the sunlight so I know its not him. I don't turn around as she enters, talking on her cell.
"Does he usually sleep all morning and afternoon?" The girl asked.
"Yes. He works night shifts." I said.
"Are you his sister or girlfriend." The girl asked. I felt my heart lurch again. I rub my temple.
"Roommate and I should let you know that his relationships only last a morning. I can call a cab for you." I said. I could tell that upset her, but it was the truth. The girl left after calling a taxi. I sigh and head into my office because Tad had paperwork for me to do. I got to work and lost track of time and heard a knock on the door.
"Come in." I said, without taking my eyes from my computer screen. The door opened and Xander came in and came towards the desk and sat down right across from me.
"I see you didn't cook some breakfast." Xander said. I took my eyes off my computer screen and kept a straight face. I wasn't even half way done with paperwork because I have been in a daydream moad and thoughts of a life that was forbidden for a squire and a Hunter. I never had this issue, but now it was like something was finally bubbling up from below.
"I have been working on paperwork so I have been busy." I said, in a calm but not so calm voice.
"Bryn. What's wrong? You didn't even speak to me when I got in the car with the woman." Xander said. He knew that was not my normal self. Usually, he couldn't get me to shut up.
"I don't know what is wrong. Just having to deal with you bringing woman home and then them asking me questions of how you and I know each other. Its gettting annoying."
I said.
"Sorry Bryn. Next time I will go to their house and text you that I won't be home till another time." Xander said. I let out a sigh. He stood up and came over to the other side to near my desk chair. He leaned down and kissed my forehead. I felt my heart leap and then he left to go out. I decide to go for a run. Even though it was night time. I needed time to clear my head. I grab my armband that will hold my Itouch as I jog and put it in there with the earphones on as I slip the arm band on and head outside. I pushed play and took off running towardsthe middle of the town.
The streets seemed to be quiet tongiht which was rare, but it was nice to be able to have the sidewalk. I slow down to catch my breath. I felt eyes on me and turn. I see men coming towards me and I reconized them as Daimons. It was time to head home. Xander was going to kill me for going out at night. I took off running in a direction toward home. I felt a hand grab my arm and pull me into an ally and slam me into a wall. I felt my ribs crack. The man that grabbed me pulled my earphones out.
"Look at what we got. A squire. Squire to Xander Saint James and his most favorite." The daimon said.
"And she looks delicious." Another daimon said. I struggled against the hold of the daimon.
"Looks like we got a struggler also." The daimon that was holding me said.
"Let her go." A voice said, from behind the daimon that was holding me. I looked and saw Xander standing there. Anger was in his eyes.
"Xan." I said. He looked at me. I saw worry in his eyes, but he was more mad. I don't know if it was because I went out at night when I'm not suppose to or that the daimons had grabbed me.
'Its both.' Xander said, in my mind. I rolled my eyes at him.
'Your damn fault mister.' I thought.
'We'll talk about this when we get home.' Xander said, as the daimons stalked around him. I brought my knee up and kneed the guy in the place where it hurt and I heard a groan of pain as I took off running. I heard Xander fighting. I was suddenly grabbed and let out a scream as I felt teeth sink into my neck. I felt my blood being drained as everything started to spin.
Xander's prove. I heard Bryn's scream as I killed the last daimon. I run and find a daimon drinking from her. I grabbed him and killed him, before he had a chance to kill her and take her soul. I caught her as she fell. She was fighting to stay concious.
"Brynna. Stay with me." I said, panic flying through my head. Acheron appeared.
"She'll be fine. We need to get her to Carson." Acheron said. He liked Brynna as a friend and came when she was in danger. I picked her up and Acheron has us appear in the Sanctuary clinic, scaring Margie.
"We need blood tranfusion NOW. Where's Carson?" I said, setting her on the bed. Acheron said he needed to go, because Tory was waiting for him. He disappeared as Carson came running in.
"What happened?" Carson asked as Margie ran to the blood bank to get blood that was Brynna's type.
"A daimon grabbed her and bit her. I was able to pull him off before he could kill her and take her soul." I said, as Margie came back with blood bags and Carson got to work on her bite mark as Margie hooked her up to the bag to get the blood in her.
"She'll make it Xan. Sit down and you can use the bed." Carson said.
"Thank you." I said, falling in the chair next to Brynna's bed. It was going to be a long night.
AN: THere you go. Next chapter should be up in a day or so. Hope you enjoyed.
