This one takes place right after this one. And go:

The door burst open and banged off the wall, and Perez charged in. "Angel!" He stopped short when he saw what she was doing.

She lifted a cool eyebrow, much calmer than she felt. "Aye?"

His gaze flitted around the room, and stopped on Ben. "What did you do to him?"

Her lip curled. "He's food, right? I treated him as such." She flipped the sirloin over, harder than she needed to. "Shame I couldn't bring myself to drain him."

He crossed his arms. "You don't have the right, this close to the moon."

"Which is why you came in here, coat billowing, to save the day?" She scooped the steak out of the pan and cut it up. "Had I been able to, you'd have been late. Just so you know to come sooner, next time." Not that there would be a next time. She was done with keeping wolves, once this was over.

She took the plate over to the bed. Ben had laid his head back against the headboard, and his eyes were closed. "Up, Ben. Food."

He twitched awake. "Smells good..." He picked up the fork, stabbed at a piece with a shaky hand, and missed. "Dammit."

"Here, let me."

"What's he doing here?" Ben asked, pointing at Perez's scowling form.

She popped a chunk of meat into Ben's mouth. "You missed his dramatic entrance?" Ben nodded, chewing, and she thought he must have been zoned pretty far out if he'd missed the door slamming open like that. She made a mental note to make him another steak as soon as he finished this one. One side of her mouth turned up. "He came to rescue you. From me."

Ben choked. She pounded on his back until his throat cleared, and he glared at her. "Might want to wait until I've swallowed to say something like that." He turned the glare to Perez. "Don't do me any fucking favors."
