He wagged his finger. “We should talk to mom and see if she’s willing to move back home, too.” My jaw dropped. “But what about Duncan and our new jobs?” “What about… there’s a vampire after you, Nikki? Or should we call you ‘Miranda’?” I sighed. “What if he follows us anyway? He said he’s been looking for me and now that he’s found me, we are supposed to be together.” “How romantic,” snickered Nathan. “If you ask me, I think he just wants to get into your pants.” “He almost did,” I mumbled. “Good thing I heard those groans and whimpers coming from your room, which was gnarly, by the way. Do you know how disturbing it is to hear your sister getting it on with a vampire?”
