enough for me to be important to you.” She looked down.
    “You are the most important thing in my life. You are ca rrying my unborn child.” That was true but she wanted more. She wanted his heart, and she had a feeling he wasn’t going to give it up willingly. They walked out of the elevator and into the parking garage.
    “Let me call Megan.” She knew that she would worry.
    “Fine, b ut I don't like her.” She smiled, usually everyone loved Megan.
    She grabbed her phone and called her best friend. It went to her voicemail right away. “Hey Megs, I’m going home with Phoenix. I'll let you know later what our plans are. Bye, love you.” She looked at her phone and frowned. Megan always answered her phone.
    “Everything al l right?” Phoenix asked and stood next to a black BMW.
    Jennifer nodded . “I think so, let’s go.” He opened the car door for her and she got in.
    He started the car and pull out of the parking garage. “Tell me about your family.” She saw a smile on his perfect face.
    “My dad owns a sports team, and my real mom died when I was a baby. He remarried an awesome woman, Cameo. She became my mother, even when she didn't have to. She showed me how to be a girl. Now my dad is with a twenty something year old and my mom is living about ten minutes from my apartment.” Jennifer smiled thinking about her mother; she was beautiful with her jet black long straight hair, warm hazel eyes and two deep dimples on her cheeks.
    “Is that why you live in that n eighborhood?” he asked. She knew she could live anywhere and her dad offered to buy her a brand new house. She didn't want handouts, which was why she took the PA job.
    “I like to be close to her. I know she will always be there for me. My dad is too busy with his n ew young wife to care.” It hurt more for her to admit that than she thought it would.
    “Well you can add me to that list now. I am here for you and our baby. No matt er what.” She smiled at him and prayed he was telling the truth. “I'm telling you the truth, darling. My kind don’t normally leave our young, and I’m not going to break that tradition.”
    “Good, I don’t want to be a single mother.” She would have if she needed to.
    “Darling, you are stuck with me.” He glanced at her and grinned.
    “Tell me about you.” She wanted to know all about this handsome man.
    “That is a long story, and we a re almost home.” Her heart sped up. We are almost home. “I think you should move in with me.”
    Jenni fer shook her head to make sure she heard him correctly. “We don’t know each other.”
    “I know, and we will get to know each other. I want m y baby to live with me.” He didn't mention her, just his baby.
    “No, we work on getting to know each other. Then we talk about me moving in with you.”
    He pulled into his large gate. “Your apartment was broken into not long ago.”
    She turned to look at him and glared. “I was planning on finding a new place. You know I have this new job now that pays pretty well.” He looked at her as he parked his car.
    “Okay, we'll work s omething out.” Another car pulled in behind his and he got out. She opened the door before he could. He was standing in front of her. “That is the doctor.”
    “The demon doctor.” S he arched an eyebrow.
    “Yes darlin g, the demon doctor.” He reached for her hand and she smacked it away.
    “I don’t want you to touch m e, not now.” A low chuckle grabbed her attention, she looked behind Phoenix and a young man was standing there. He had black hair and green eyes. He was slightly tan, and just as handsome as Phoenix. She narrowed her eyes. “Incubus?” She asked.
    He smiled . “I am. Most normal humans can't tell what I am.” He moved passed Phoenix, and touched her face. “What are you, Jennifer Cruz? Because you aren’t completely human.”
    She narrowed her eyes. “I don’t know what you are talking about.”
    Phoenix took his friend’s hand away from her
