Summery:For all those people who thought they way they ended "Tempted" was stupid and corney; here's something that I just might continue if I get enough positive reviews!
Disclamer: The people who liked the way they ended the book, probably shouldn't read this cause this is totally and completely 100% Pro-Caleb...
She was out for almost three hours and Caleb was getting impatient.
"How much did you give her?" He kept asking me.
"Enough. She should be waking up soon, just be patient." I tried to tell him.
"You don't understand," He sighed. "I need my three girls up and ready when I'm back full strength." He leaned over and kissed Livvie on the top of her head.
"She'll be up. Don't worry." I assured him. I looked down at my watch; maybe I did give her too much. I went over to Gaby, checking her pulse just incase I had really screwed up and killed her. I got a pulse but she still wasn't waking up. I looked over at Caleb, unsure of my next move. As if he read my mind, which he probably did,
"I don't care what you do, just get her to wake up." He commanded. I leaned over Gaby and slapped her face as heard as I could, which woke her up with a start. I looked up at Caleb, who wasn't exactly ecstatic about my method, but it worked. Gaby was still mumbling when I helped her sit up and regain her balance.
"Wha, what happened?" She asked me, not really acknowledging her surroundings.
"You took a really, really long nap." Caleb said behind me, focusing on the long part. That was about when Gaby started to get scared again.
"Oh Gaby. Calm down. Relax, everything is going to be just fine." I tried to calm her. Instead she just looked at me like Sadaam Husian had just been elected president.
"What are you doing Karen? Caleb's behind you." She insisted.
"Yea." I tried to communicate to her that I really didn't care. He placed his hand on my shoulder and I felt a surge of power of power flow through my body. I stood up and went to stand next to Livvie as Caleb knelt down in front of Gaby. Caressing the side of her cheek with the back of his hand, he seemed to put her in a little trance. I made a mental note to ask him how to do that later.
"Do want to return to the way you were?" He asked her still caressing her cheek.
"Yes, of course." She answered still dazed.
"Okay. That's all I needed to hear." He moved the hair away from her neck and looked back at us, fangs out.
"Caleb, when did you get your powers back?" Livvie asked, floored.
"Long story, hold on." When he bit down on her neck, she closed her eyes and bit her lip. I felt a smile now crossing my face. I looked down at Livvie and saw that she too was pleased. He stopped, pulled away and proceeded to cut his hand for Gaby. As she started to drink, her neck came into my view as cute little trickles of blood came out of the holes in her neck. I laughed to myself, or at least what I thought was myself.
"What?" Livvie whispered to me.
"Oh nothing. I was just watching the blood trickle down from her cute little neck." I laughed a little more as Livvie got the humor. I guess it's kind of a vampire joke if you think about it. Gaby finally stopped sucking on his hand and licked her lips. I could feel the change in the room go from one vampire and his lover and one vampire freak to two vampires, a lover, and a vampire freak. She stood up, rolled her neck a bit and walked over to Livvie.
"You were right." She told Livvie, who nodded and wiped away the excess blood off Gaby's neck.
