Hunger's Mate
“Ezra yelled the moment he walked into one of the rooms in Bas’s bunkers, beneath the main floors of Perryville.
They’d been back at the resort for about forty-five minutes, after finally getting that “thing” down with a shot to the neck of a potent tranquilizer. Ezra hadn’t wanted to leave Jewel unattended and at the same time he’d wanted to be inside to see what the hell was going on. The conflict for him was strange because he had no emotional or physical attachments to anyone, let alone a hu...man. But it was real and weighed heavily on his shoulders in the seconds he’d stood outside the SUV door. He’d felt compelled to stay with her, even as that darkness loomed inside warning him to get as far away as he possibly could, to not get sucked in like he had before.
