Chapter 23
I didn’t set my alarm last night, so I woke up to a knock on my door.
“Who is it?” I said while yawning in between words.
“It’s Amara! Are you ready for brunch?” There was excitement in her voice. Excitement I was not ready for.
“Give me a minute.” I got out of bed, and went to my closet. ‘What to wear?’ I looked through the 9 outfits I had. I ended up choosing a tank- top with a character on it, and a jean skirt. I grabbed my black stockings, and my sandals. I tried to get dressed as quickly as I could. You could hear Amara on the other side talking to someone.
“Don’t worry, she’s really sweet. In taste and k

The lunch went well, we barely talked. Esmerlda talked about how she was the queen's best friend, Amara let me order any desert I wanted on her, and Prince Anthony sat in silence. You could tell he did not want to be there. I ordered spaghetti with texas toast. Anthony got a supreme pizza tasting bottle of blood that had been mixed with garlic blood. I guessed it would make it taste like garlic pizza. I learned that you could mix blood to get new flavors, though I got the prince to tell me that the blood types had to be the same for this to work. Esmerlda got a bottle of blood that tastes like a fruit salad, then made a statement about how she was trying to watch her figure. Amara surprised me by her choice of blood. She may be 6, but had a refined palate. She ordered a mixture of blood that tasted like white truffle pizza. I had never had white truffle myself, but she

I spent my next 11 years going to school. My only friends were Amara and Blake. I graduated at age 17, and decided I didn’t want to go to an all vampire college, which Anthony respected. I had a hard time in high school with grades 7-12th. Amara protected me in grades 1-6, but we had different classes in high school. Carter High was on the 26thfloor. I didn’t bother making new friends. I was kind of a lone wolf. I didn’t get made fun of, but I did get asked a lot if a vampire could taste my blood because I smelled so good. Of course I denied everyone, and I guess because they weren’t little kids, they left me alone.I spent the next 5 years after school helping Anthony with his work, running errands for him, giving him his meals, or cleaning the house. I felt like a servant at times, but at the end of each week he would reward m

I woke up in my bed, feeling, hearing, and seeing better than before. It was like everything was heightened. I could hear the elevator going up and down. I could see the little fly in my room, sitting on my dresser, I could feel the silk of my cover ten times better than before. I could feel every thread. Anthony was sitting on the edge of my bed with his head in his hands. I remember what he said… he killed my mother. I wonder if I could be with him after hearing that. Did I even still want to be with him? Was it worth it? To be with my mothers murder? He turned to me as I sat up.“Asoka!” He came to my side in an instant. I did not look up at him. I was still hurt by what he had told me.“I need you to drink my blood now okay?” He went to bite his wrist, but I grabbed his hand to stop him.“No…” it was a low whisper. My voice is barely Even there.&

I laid there with my eyes closed as all the memories flooded back. It was like seeing my life flash before my eyes. I did not need air anymore, but I felt the need to take a breath. It was a lot to take in. I had a life with Anthony. I was happy. I had friends. I was loved. What more could I have asked for? But I did ask for more… for a life with him. My want had made a dent in our relationship. I was barely around Anthony these past two years. All because I asked too much of him. Then when he grants my wish, after I promised nothing would change how I feel… I deny him. I turned away… all because he loved me enough to tell the truth.My cheeks burned, and my face was wet. Tears had streamed from the side of my eyes into my hair. I had a lot, and I took it for granted. I thought about what he had said to me. Did he really feel the life we had together was not worth c

We laid in Anthony bed next to each other holding hands. I looked out his window. It was night time already...maybe early morning. “Asoka?” Anthony rolled onto his side to face me. I rolled over to face him, putting my hand in his soft, wavy hair. “Yes, my love?’ He grinned. “I have a question…” I looked at him. There was nothing he could say to ruin this day. I got everything I wished for. Whatever question he had… I could handle it. “Go ahead.” “Will you go somewhere with me in the morning?” I laughed, and a hint of discouragement danced across his face. “I’m n

The life I wished for Prologue
I awoke in a delightful room, alone in this mysterious looking shack. I wasn't sure how I had gotten there. As I looked around it appeared to be after dusk. I was in the middle of what seemed to be a forest. The trees were red and orange; I figured it must be autumn. There was a waterfall, a long winding stream, and the shack. While glancing the area I had seen It had one bedroom, bathroom, and armoire. What point in time it was I had no ideal of. Somehow I have a feeling of whatever left me here wasn't coming back. I was positive of this . There was food in a ice chest and a note. What it read though was another thing entirely. I wasn't sure what to make of It. It read: I know this will be confusing at first, but just know this is what you wished for. You are not a human, nor have you ever felt human. I met you out of nowhere. You asked me to give you a new start. A New Life. You did not kno
The life I wished for Chapter 1
After reading the letter I was more confused. It did answer why the cooler said food... Its just what was in it. It did not look anything like food. I opened the cooler and saw the drinks. They were more like a a syrupy textured liquid. Inside the cooler were plastic bottles. They were the size of coffee cups; clear and filled with this bright red syrup. These bottles had lids on them so you could not smell what was inside. After reading this letter though, I had a feeling I knew what was in them. The thought scared me. I did not dare open them. I was sure this was a joke. Me a vampire? I knew I was missing my memory, and now knew my name... Asoka; but I kept thinking there's no way I am a vampire. They don't exist! I decided not to open the container, but to instead take a look around. I walked outside first. I hoped this would tell me
