"I don't like it when you say that," she admitted, turning her head to look at him at last. She caught his eyes and held them, hoping that, if he wanted to talk about something she didn't care to discuss, he would say so.
"About Jack," he explained. "But not here. We need to go somewhere more private." There were still a lot of people milling around, and he had other reasons for wanting to be alone as well.

The Clandestine Saga Sneak Attack
Laura pounded her thumbs nervously against the steering wheel as she waited, her eyes focused out the windshield but her mind racing through all the scenarios of what might happen next. The information from Eliza had been greatly helpful. Once Laura and Laney had reached Shenandoah, they had easily located the familiar Corvette parked outside a little motel just outside of town. They weren't sure how long Giovani had been there when they arrived, but camping out in the parking lot across from the hotel and sleeping in shifts had yielded no sightings. If he left the hotel, he did so from a different door and on foot. In the day or so they had been watching, the car had not moved... until around 1:00 that afternoon.

"What did you say?" Cadence asked, her head cocked to the side in confusion.Aaron took another deep breath. "I said that Jack isn't dead. He's a Vampire, Cadence. Jack has gone through the Resurrection process."Cadence stared down at her shoes, pondering what Aaron had just said. "I'm sorry," she said, looking back at him. "What? How is that possible? Jack died. He was sick. He was in the

Cadence turned away from Aaron, looking toward the origin of the sound. She took a step forward but felt Aaron's hand on her arm.Pulling a Glock out of the back of his waistband, he offered it to her. "Take this. You might need it."Cadence looked at the gun in disgust, her hands buried deep in her coat pockets and not coming out. "I'm not taking that. I would never shoot Jack." She pulled
The Clandestine Saga Whirlwind
Cadence was listening to this conversation, ascertaining that the woman on the ground was a fellow Hunter, named Laura, though she had no idea who she was. She gave access to Laney so that she could see what was happening with her sister. Simultaneously, she was listening to the ramblings of an apparently insane Rogue Vampire, trying to justify to his brother why he didn't bother to tell him that the woman he loved, the one he planned to turn into a Vampire, could never be turned."Jack," Giovani explained, "she doesn't have to be a Vampire to live with you forever. She's already practically i
The Clandestine Saga Shots Fired
"Fine," Giovani said aloud. He turned, as if he were going to walk away. He could feel Eliza relax behind him, her gun still pointed down. Spinning around, Giovani shot her, first in the shoulder, then in the stomach. Eliza reeled in pain, falling to the ground next to Laura, who was now left exposed. Even though Jamie rushed in to try to cover Laura, he was too late. She was folded up on the ground, attempting to protect her head with her arms. The first bullet hit her in the hip, the next in the back. Jamie got there just in time to prevent a third shot from hitting her. It grazed his arm, doing little damage, as he was able to heal himself fairly quickly. He fired at Giovani, who stepped behind a large pine tree, taking cover there.

"My girlfriend, really?" Aaron replied, switching to IAC. "Real mature. Should I say the same thing about your Prince Charming who ducked out of the woods to save you without being ordered to do so?"Cadence had no idea that Christian hadn't been ordered to protect her. She stopped for a second, glancing at him over her shoulder. He was with the rest of the team, attending to Laura. "Well, you didn't do it," she spat back angrily, walking away from him, back through the park toward Uncle Mike's house.
The Clandestine Saga Search for Help
Giovani hadn't waited to see if they were being trailed. Once he had Jack and was told to get out, he did so. He had been shot a few times before and knew how painful it could be. He didn't stop to examine his brother's injury, rather threw the car into reverse and started on the journey back to Omaha without even returning to the hotel to gather the items they had left behind."How are you doing?" Giovani asked, pulling the car onto the highway.

Aaron caught a few wondering glances from the others, particularly Hannah and Laney, but did not address their concerns. He walked across the room and sat down in a chair adjacent to Christian and rubbed his face in exhaustion."Girl problems?" Christian asked quietly, leaning forward in his chair."Oh, my God!" Aaron whispered back, looking at Eliza who was sitting on the corner of Laura's
