Chapter 731: Present Purpose, Part 1

It occurred to me far too late to bring up Tyler's quote-unquote 'accident' to Adalia. 

Her spontaneous appearance was especially spontaneous this time around, and by the time my heart was rested to remember less life-threatening thoughts, she had once again disappeared to thin air as all vampires do.

Or as I think they do. I don't know, I've only ever met just the two.

Best case scenario, she's gone to meet with Amelia, where she'd inadvertently most likely hear the news from her. Worst case scenario, she's going to hear it from Amelia.

I decided to go and lament my failures in the showers, and even with the heater set nearly to face-melting temperatures, my mid-morning refresher felt more like a skinny dip in the middle of the antarctic. I lasted about three minutes before calling it quits, digging deep in the cluttered mess of my closet for the thickest, wooliest clothes I owned.
