Emma turned to Mason with a frown. “You have to try to behave yourself around Aria.”
He glanced at her from the driver’s side. “Define behave.”

“Are these the same people dealing with Rahound to get human blood?”
“Well, okay. She’s human-blood free. She’s trying to figure out who is making deals for humans on her side.” She sighed. “Give a girl some credit. At least she’s trying.”
“You’re right. She is and I am grateful for her help. Which means I won’t kill her.”
“Gee, thanks,” she muttered. “You’re too kind.”
