Unwanted bonds

(Damien)

"It's late now. We should find a motel to crash at and continue our search in the morning." I said to everyone who was slowing down a bit since they were tired. 

I had ordered my men not to shift, since I would rather not draw any attention to us. I did tell Amelia not to use her magic because of that very reason. It's not like I had any problems with it. I just wanted to get to Marcus without having to kill anyone. 

Amelia glanced at me as if she didn't like what I had said. 

"Do you think it's good for us to stop now when we are close?" She asked as if challenging me. I knew she was tired, so I didn't understand why she was fighting me on this when the others had agreed with me. 

I ran my hand through my hair, frustrated that Alastair thought that it was a good idea to take her with me. I don't see how she'd fit in, apart from slowing me down and questioning me every chance she got.
