"Not really," his mother laughed before she spoke, "She and Richard are planning on going to Oxford and want to leave little Thomas in someone's care. I agreed to look after him, as they do live close by. I wouldn't be able to spend my time with you, but with Thomas, it would be like us back in time."

As if on cue, Hadeon slipped an arm around Mallory, drawing her close.

Mallory bit the inside of her cheek for keeping her hands in view of the middle-aged couple.

Seizing the moment of his brief distraction, she pushed with all her might, toppling him into the muddy forest floor. The surprise on his face was worth every ounce of effort, and even as she hovered over him, her voice filled with triumph.

"Hm?" Hadeon looked up, his expression one of feigned innocence mixed with a hint of amusement. "Are we lost? I thought you knew the way."

As Mallory contemplated the mechanics of her leap—specifically, whether a strategic kick might grace his smug vampire head or simply end with her sprawled in the mud—she opted instead to walk past him.

"Do you want me to carry your shoes for you, then? You are, after all, carrying my coat." Hadeon turned his head slightly, "Or are you suggesting that I carry you?" he teased
