mean?” the boy demanded. “You better get out of here. Or I’ll call the police.”
    “I would rather that you did not.” The man smiled, and the boys retreated a step. Suzy gripped her towel tighter, feeling her throat go dry. There was something vaguely feral about the man’s small smile. She was half-surprised to see white, normal teeth and not fangs.
    “Okay,” Suzy said, in complete lack of anything more intelligent to say.
    The man turned his black eyes on her, and Suzy stood lost between two impulses. Half of her wanted to slam the window and hide under the bed, while the other half of her wanted to give in to temptation, open the window and walk up to the man. She wanted to touch that strange skin, those arms. She wanted to look deeper into those twin black inkwells in his face. She wanted to...
    “You, woman,” he said.
    Suzy faltered. Who said ‘woman’ these days? But there was no sarcasm, no derogatory tone to his deep voice. Maybe he was an immigrant and did not know the language that well. Except for his height, he looked vaguely Native American, but there was a faint slant to his eyes that spoke of different origins. She cleared her throat. “Yes?”
    “Are these men threatening you?”
    “Hey – “ one of the boys began.
    “Quiet. I am addressing the young woman,” the man said. Not snappy, not challenging, only in command. Someone used to being obeyed. Was there a military base nearby? No that was ridiculous; with that hair, he would not be in the military. Suzy shook her head, as much in reply as in at the whole situation. Her friends would perhaps believe her when she told them about the boys, but they would never believe this.
    She realised the man still waited for an answer. She was tempted to say yes, if only to see what would happen. Nasty, perhaps, but she was only human.
    Then she changed her mind. First of all, the boys had not threatened her. They were just hopeful kids with one too many sugary rum drinks in their systems. And Suzy had a feeling things could get ugly if she said yes. The boys were probably anything but violent, but the man’s calm unnerved both the boys as well as Suzy. There was something about the way he stood, relaxed and totally still, yet somehow ready to spring. It was time to sort this out before something bad happened.
    “I’m fine. They just wanted to join my, um, party. But they haven’t done anything bad. I’m sure they’re sweet as pies.” Did I just say that?
    A short silence followed. “I see,” the man said. “And you say you mean this woman no harm? Be honest. I do not take lightly to lies.”
    “Of course, dude. We were just – “
    “We’d never – we just thought they’d – “
    The man cut them off. “Understood. A good night to you all, then.” He nodded at each of them, his black gaze lingering a moment longer at Suzy – and there it was again, that faintly feral smile, playing at the corners of his mouth.
    Suzy’s throat felt tight. Once again feelings clashed inside her. Part of her told her to run away, part of her said the same thing, only to run in the other direction. And part of her wanted to… growl? What was that all about?
    Then he turned and walked away, across the lawn, blending with the night until he was gone. The boys did not stop staring at his back until he vanished. They looked at each other, then turned to Suzy and babbled.
    “We better, you know, go back.”
    “Yeah. Our friends will wonder where we are.”
    “Sorry if we bothered you.”
    “Yeah.”
    “Didn’t want to…”
    “…cause any trouble.”
    “But if you change your mind, you know where – ouch .”
    Once again the boy with a trace of tact – or maybe a measure of survival instinct – slapped his friend over the back of his head. Then they turned and walked quickly down the path.
    Suzy watched them go, then closed the window and leaned against the wall. She did not move until her heart stopped hammering. Christ. Weirdness
