Chapter 99 : My Mate is There

*Xander*

I spent the short day watching the wall of mist along the horizon, wondering what the hell was on the other side and why Zeke hadn’t gone with Ianthe.

Zeke finally crawled out of whatever hole he’d be hiding in around dusk, his face shielded from the lingering daylight by the hood of his cloak. He looked sunken, and his eyes were burning with frustration.

I flinched a bit as his eyes met mine, glowing like raw gold in the fading sunset. His expression went beyond the hurt of sending his sister away. He looked hungry.

“You can’t eat me,” I said quickly, rising to my feet. “My blood is like poison, apparently–”

“I don’t feed on people,” he sneered, rolling his eyes as he turned his gaze to the water. He sniffed indignantly, watching the surf. In a flash of black fabric and a spray of water, he disappeared below the surface.

I waited and waited for him to come back up, cursing his name after nearly five minutes had passed. That bastard was killing himself, I thought. And I still didn’t know how to get to the Vampire King.

But his head breached the surface of the water in the distance, his mouth open and gasping for air as he began to swim back to shore. He rose to his feet, the gentle waves swirling around him as he carried several good-sized fish in his arms and dumped them on the rocky beach a few yards away from me.

He was sopping wet and irritated as he pointed his finger to the sack he’d been carrying around during our journey down the bluff and through the city.

“There’s matches and kindling in there. Start a fire,” he commanded.

“Yes, sir,” I grumbled, watching as he knelt before the fish and chose his first meal.

I turned my gaze away before I witnessed him sucking the blood from a f*****g fish. That was something I didn’t particularly care to see.

I started a small fire while Zeke did whatever he was currently doing behind me. Eventually, he dropped several pieces of driftwood next to me, sitting down with a long sigh of relief.

He’d dropped a fish in my lap, some creature I’d never seen before with pale pink flesh. I flayed it, laying it over a level piece of slate to roast above the embers.

“Thanks for leaving me some,” I said, glancing at the pile of shriveled fish carcasses just visible in the distance.

Zeke shrugged, closing his eyes and tilting his face to the sky as dusk receded and night bloomed over the tops of our heads. “You’re welcome.”

I narrowed my eyes at him and popped a piece of fish into my mouth, chewing slowly. It had a strange flavor, slightly salty, but fish was fish.
