СКАЧАТЬ They knew to pierce him and drain more strength that way. Also…”

      “Also, what?”

      The dark shape shrugged. “He’d transmogrified—changed shape—a couple of times the past week or so. That drained him. And he doesn’t feed like a sensible revenant. His stupid scruples.”

      “What do you mean?” Christopher had no hesitation about draining that jug on the table and it had restored his color, for a short time. “Should I have given him more? I had no idea how much.”

      Tom reached over to steady her shoulder; she found the twisted fingers strangely comforting. His voice gentled as he looked across the bed, “It’s nothing you did or didn’t do. Just his stubbornness. He has an aversion to taking human blood. He’s fed off animals for years.”

      “And that’s a substitute?”

      “From day to day, yes. I feed from animals myself, sometimes, but on a long term, no. Add that accumulated weakness to the torture he endured…No revenant could survive both.”

      Kit seemed to shrivel as they watched. Fear skittered up and down her spine. Dixie leaned over to kiss him. He felt as cold as Gran in the casket. She’d just met him and now she was losing him. Did everyone she loved have to die? Tears coursed down her cheeks. She didn’t bother to wipe them anymore.

      The mattress sagged behind her. Tom had moved to her side. His arm wrapped her shoulders. “He was my friend, too,” he whispered, his tears wet and warm on her neck. “We were young together.”

      Night passed with only the buzz of endless traffic outside the curtained window and the tick of the marble clock on the mantel to mark the time.

      “It’s three. Dawn’s not far off. He’s lasting longer than I thought.” Tom’s voice shattered the quiet. Or was that her nerves? He’d barely whispered.

      “No.” She wasn’t going to just sit here and watch Christopher die. She’d…Damn it, she knew what she’d do. “Listen! You said he was weakened because he won’t take human blood.” Tom nodded, his eyes heavy-lidded and red from crying. “Would human blood save him?”
