    Summary

    “Hmm,” Allison says, cocking her head as Andrew looks out the window again. Neil watches Andrew for another moment before Nicky calls his name, rounding them all up to head for Starbucks. Allison looks over her shoulder as she follows and notices that Andrew is watching Neil walk away. He’s got the same indifferent expression on his face as always, but it’s enough that he is looking to spike Allison’s interest. It’s a shiny new thought, a curiosity, a colorful circus performance of an idea — it’s just what she needs to cut through the fog that’s been rolling through her mind all morning.

    Andrew’s eyes flick over to hers, still unbothered, but Allison can’t help but feel like she’s got one over him this time. She smiles wide at him, and he immediately turns away.

    Allison falls in step with Matt at the back of the group, throwing an elbow into his waist. He looks down at her in interest, a reliable partner in gossip-crime. She smirks at him.

    “How about a new bet?”

    Summary

    For most people, a problem is a matter or situation regarded as unwelcome or harmful that needs to be dealt with or overcome.

    Summary

    Neil has never loved the taste of blood. There was no allure in it, whether from a freshly killed deer or a bag stolen from the blood bank.

    A means to an end.

    But Andrew’s blood was not like that.

    No. It was far, far from it.
