Undead Chaos (28 page)

“And yet there are so many more still lingering.”

“True, but you know what? Out of all of them, I can’t get over why Banks was naked.”

Quinn chuckled. “

“Trust me, it’s disturbing on so many levels.”

“What am I going to do with you?” she asked, shaking her head.

“Anything you want.”

Her smile turned feral. “Finish your wine, then we’ll talk.”

The future with all its uncertainties was out there waiting for Quinn and me, but worrying about it was wasted energy. Instead, it was best to enjoy the present while we could. I reached for my glass, lifting it with both hands. Then I winked and swallowed the rest of my wine in a single gulp.

Quinn laughed until tears leaked from her eyes. The sound echoed through the open door and filled the townhouse with the warmth it so desperately craved.
