When the gorgeous Italian vampire walked into my chambers, I wanted to jump up and hug her, but this was Natalie Borgia. She was a rogue vampire perfectly capable of ripping my heart out should she decide to. I wasn't about to take my chances, but it was too hard to fight the urge to flirt with her.
It didn't make sense to me how they expected me to organize a way to get to The Shade and retrieve Sofia while I was still being kept a prisoner at The Oasis, but this was how the Maslens worked, so I had to deal with the situation.
"You're looking like a total babe, Natalie…" I crooned. It sure wasn't my best line, but it was all I could come up with in such short notice. "I never thought I'd be stuck in the same bedroom with you…"
