e　thick　cloak　to　wipe　my

eyes。　I　took　a　few　deep　breaths；

trying　to　calm　myself。

〃Is　there　anything　I　can　get　you？〃　a　voice　asked　politely。　It　was　Gianna；

leaning　over　Edward's　shoulder

with　a　look　that　was　both　concerned　and　yet　still　professional　and　detached　at

the　same　time。　It　didn't

seem　to　bother　her　that　her　face　was　inches　from　a　hostile　vampire。　She　was

either　totally　oblivious；　or

looking　for　an　answer。

〃How　can　she　watch　those　people　file　through　to　that　hideous　room　and　want　to

be　a　part　of　that？〃
