Chameleon (Supernaturals) (56 page)

My eyebrows flew sky high. “Excuse me? Surrounded by beautiful college girls
all the time?
You—”

Ryan cut me off with another kiss. A deep, lustful one that sent shivers rocketing through my body, erasing any argument I’d been tempted to have.

Ryan Miller has never played fair.

Two minutes later the lamp beside my bed exploded.

Ryan groaned and then climbed off me. “I should go,” he said as he attempted to smooth the static electricity out of his hair. So much for not pumping him full of mutant energy. “It’s been a long day and I really need a shower.”

“I suppose you’re right,” I said, sighing as I followed him to the door.

Ryan lingered in the doorway and pulled me to him for one last kiss. “You going to be okay?” he asked.

“I don’t know,” I answered honestly. “I just… What am I supposed to do the next time it happens? I can’t stand by and watch someone get hurt like that again. There’s no way. But I can’t just give up my secret either.”

Ryan, ever the optimist, said, “We’ll figure something out.”

“Like what?”

I sounded desperate and slightly panicked, but Ryan smiled at me, completely serene. “Don’t know yet, but something. Trust me.” He smirked then and added, “If I could help the Ice Queen solve her problems, then I can certainly help Jamie Baker.”

He had a point.

Not that I was going to admit that to him.
