Chapter 130: Blood is not thicker than water

{ Author's note: The following chapter/s will be revealing a plot in HUNTED volume 1. I have realised a little too late that I cannot write about Gabriel without this being mentioned with all the facts. Lesson learned for this noobie author, I hope I will not be ruining anyone's reading experience from this little exposure. }

After a lazy morning in bed, Esme and Gabriel strolled out to the lounge area where Marcus was waiting, wearing the clothes he wore the night before. Esme quietly made a cooked breakfast after the butler went to the shops again and dished it out for her and Marcus. If she was going to be staying in the ONYX building, she would have to fill up the empty kitchen.

They sat at the stools to the kitchen counter, eating while Gabriel had a black coffee and answered his phone after taking a bite from Esme's toast. While the vampire walked away speaking on the phone in Latin, Esme paused mid-bite of her toast and stared after her mate.
