Mordyn arched an eyebrow at him. "Are you being serious?"
Keegan put on a fake smile. "It's like an old friend by now."
"You should take better care in choosing your friends."
Keegan shot Mordyn a look. "Obviously." He took another sip of his blood. "But I've been doing fine ignoring this vision for the past couple of decades so I don't think there's anything for you to worry about."
"It's become more frequent, though?" Mordyn eyed him closely. "You don't think that means anything?"
"Who's the expert here?" Keegan asked. "You or me?"
Mordyn held up his hands. "Fine, fine. Have it your way." He looked at the dancefloor where a pair of female dragons were dancing, their bodies moving together seductively. A few weeks ago, Mordyn would likely have tried to join them. Now, though, he had reunited with his mate.
"How are things going with you and Apollo?" Keegan asked.
Mordyn glanced at him. "He's working late tonight. As always." Mordyn grinned. "Do you think I'd waste my time with you if my mate was available?"
"Mh…" Keegan felt himself smile back at his friend. "You're in all of my futures, so yes."
"Damn. I'm not getting rid of you, huh?"
"Nope." Keegan lifted his glass once more and emptied it. "Any special plans for the weekend?"
"Apollo doesn't know it yet, but we're going to watch the Solstice fireworks. The rest of his team is coming too."
Keegan had almost forgotten about the celebrations going on in town that weekend. He'd barely left the club recently. Too busy trying to figure out why he kept seeing himself die.
"You should come," Mordyn said, as if catching on to his thoughts. "You spend too much time at your computer."
"I'll think about it."
"It might do you some good."
"I don't know." Keegan was about to get up and order himself a refill when his vision went dark for the shortest of moments. He saw himself at the fireworks, the cheers of the crowd in his ears as the sky lit up.
He blinked hard, coming back to the present.
"Something wrong?" Mordyn asked.
Keegan rubbed his temples. He hadn't had intrusive visions like that in years. Aside from that one fatal vision, anyway. "It's nothing," Keegan said. "Tell me about the fireworks."
"What's there to tell? They'll be loud and colorful, I guess. The theme this year is 'fire and ice' to celebrate our country's new union with the ice kingdom."
Another vision. This one showing him ordering food for Apollo and his teammates.
There was an odd certainty to the vision, as if it was decided that he was going.
He looked up to realize that Mordyn was still talking and he'd missed half of what the other vampire was saying. Something about a parade.
"I'll come," Keegan decided.
He didn't know why his powers were trying to nudge him in this direction, but usually it was for the best when he listened.
"Great." Mordyn clapped him on the shoulder. "It'll be fun, you'll see."
Keegan didn't think it would befunexactly, but it would be something.
Something would happen tomorrow.
