“Except for where Oliver punched through it, and we couldn’t see to drive?” “You know, we probably should have jacked that cop car,”Įve said. Once they’d donned all the donated layers, they headed out again. “No? Sticking with the toga look? Well, I always said you were an ice- cold killer.” Shane held out something to the vampire, and got a dismissive stare in return. Claire was doing the same, taking both a T- shirt and a hoodie to add to what she was wearing, and for the first time, she felt something like warm again. “Here, put on another layer.” He handed Eve more clothes, and she bundled up gratefully.
Then he gave me clothes.” Shane put on a hoodie from the bag- another TPU legacy- and snagged his blue jeans from the floor.
“Well, I said I was pledging a frat at TPU with a car full of other guys, and we got driven out here and left naked by the side of the road, and the old bastard cackled and thought it was funny as hell. The logo on the faded cotton was- ironically- that of Texas Prairie University. He grabbed a pair of the sweats and ducked out of the car to pull them on, then added a zip- up hoodie. “Sorry, ladies, they’re all men’s sizes, but I’m sure you’ll still look awesome.” “Here,” he said, and began digging out baggy sweatpants, hoodies, jackets, and shirts. “I do.”Īnd she was right to do it, because after about ten minutes, he came back with a whole plastic bag full of clothes. “What the hell is he doing? What if they just, you know, shoot on sight?” They all watched him jog away in his Joe Boxers. “Trust me, okay?” He bailed out when Michael stopped the car, and then- inexplicably- took off his jeans. And while it sounds like salvation-even for the vampires themselves-the truth is far more sinister and deadly.“Of course we’re not,” Shane said. It seems that an organization called the Daylight Foundation has offered the population of Morganville something they’ve never had: hope of a vampire-free future. The town looks cleaner and happier than they’ve ever seen it before, but when their incoming group is arrested and separated-vampires from humans-they realize that the changes definitely aren’t for the better.
Something drastic has happened in Morganville while Claire and her friends were away. But the Morganville they return to isn’t the one they know it’s become a different place-a deadly one… While Morganville, Texas, is often a troubled town, Claire Danvers and her friends are looking forward to coming home.
