How selfish of me to desire such a quick Goodbye all compacted into one fleeting chapter all because I know how amazing your action scenes will be and Austin is only slowing down Anna's progress since he is overly protective, rightfully worrisome, and is vulnerable if she goes demon hunting mode.

Very emotional and intimately climaxing and a wave of realizations from them both, I was surprised that Austin didn't fight a bit harder for the woman he loves, even if Anna would have stay adamant and stubborn about her decision due to the fact she is nearly ageless in the vampiric and faery sense.

I liked how Anna pleaded with him stating all her future desires and plans that she had seen with him regarding marriage and children, but as you stated in the comments section, that's all nice and swell but Anna's feelings never matched Austins', at least from what I've read so far, and with that...

Anna was destined to be a two fanged tumbleweed blowing in the dusty winds of darkness and mystery, leaving Austin in the trails of her supernatural silhouette as she travailed a tapestry of strange terrains in order to seek out her true destiny. What a way to set up the action scenes, and a nice sneak peak into her journey towards the brothers who are like Sam and Dean! Amazing transitioning chapter my friend.
