Bitten 13: Museum Trip & Lunch
Jillie’s POV“Alright, everyone, when we get to the National Art Museum, make sure you join your group.” Mrs. Key told us. I leaned back in my chair, taking in the sites of Nassau. It was beautiful. Especially when the sun sets. After swimming yesterday, I watched the sunset outside as I waited to go down to dinner, but the town was still beautiful even after sunset.“What are you thinking about?” Jarren asked from beside me. I smiled to myself, remembering yesterday. We decided to tell our friends about us when we got to the pool. Mason and Alyx both yelled ‘About time.’ at the same time and then looked at each other puzzled. It was too funny. I then had to explain to Mason that I’d been telling Alyx how I’d felt, and she was giving me advice. Come to find out, Jarren was doing the same thing with Mason. Isn’t that ironic? It really didn’t help my case with Mallory, though. She was already sort of ticked at me because of the fact I’d kept it from her for a whole
Bitten 14: A Promise Made
Jarren's POV “Usted es el niña del sol. Brilla intensamente maravillosamente dentro de usted.” (You are the girl of the sun. It shines intensely and wonderfully within you.) The jewelry woman told Jillie. I looked on as she smiled. She had absolutely no idea what she was talking about. I could have told her, but I was still trying to calm myself down from Carson. He's pushing all the wrong buttons. I absent-mindedly watched as Jillie continued to look around the small tent. I saw her pick up another bracelet. It looked like it matched the one on her arm. The only difference was this one had more silver than gold in it. She walked up to the woman. "I'd like these." the woman looked at her confused, and Jillie looked a little frustrated. I laughed. “Quisiéramos comprar éstos.” (We'd like to buy these.) Jillie whipped her head around and looked at me. "You speak Spanish?" "Yes." "Well, that would have helped earlier
Bitten 15: Someone in the Shadows
Unknown POV I watched as she slept soundly. She was beautiful. I watched the easy rise and fall of her chest. Her breathing was quiet. I wonder what she's dreaming about. How I hoped it was me, but I knew better. I knew she was dreaming of him. That bloodsucking leech. He didn't deserve her. She was too good for him. She needed someone better than him. She needed me. I deserved her. She stirred silently, and I held my breath. When she settled back down, I released a silent stream of air. I watched her intently while she slept. Taking in her every feature. Locking it into memory. Not that I needed to. I knew h
Bitten 16: Beach Time
Jarren's POV "I think I should go and start getting my things together as well. See you guys later." Becka called before walking out of the door as well, Nic close behind her. I sat on my bed in silence, the hairs on the back of my neck standing on end. It wasn't the silence that was making me uncomfortable. It was something else entirely. What it was exactly, I didn't know. I couldn't put my finger on it."So, Aaden, why were you so interested in knowing how Nic's activities with Mallory went?" Mason asked, putting air quotes around activities."I just wanted to know if she was as giving with him as she was with me."My gaze landed on Aaden. "Seriously, dude. What kind of friend are you?""I'm a great friend.""Throwing Mal's business out there like that isn't being such a great friend," Mason informedhim."Yea, well, oh well." If I
Bitten 17: Special
Jillie's POV I watched him walk away toward the water. I called after him, but he didn't even as much as look back. I looked down at the guy on the ground, and he was shaking. I didn't blame him. I was shaking to. What was up with Jarren's eyes? They'd looked almost black. I shook my head as I began to walk slowly toward the water. I continued to walk into it until my feet could no longer touch the bottom, and I swam out a little way."Jarren!" I didn't see him anywhere, but I was positive this was where he came in at. "Jarren!" I turned around when I heard water moving behind me. I came face to face with Jarren. I jumped a little. "You scared me.""
Bitten 18: Home Again
Jillie's POV I couldn't wait to get off this plane and home. The trip was fantastic. I loved going to the beach and the botanical gardens. That was my favorite part of the entire trip. I lay back in my chair. We'd been in the air for about almost seven hours. Another hour and I'd be home and in my own bed. I missed my parents."What are you thinking about?"I turned to look at Jarren. "Being home.""Someone was homesick."I laughed. "Just a little." He grabbed my hand and brought it to his lips, kissing it lightly. I felt a shiver run
Bitten 19: Cursed Life
Jarren's POV I pulled back instantly, fangs immediately retracting. What had I done? I got off of her and walked over to the window, opening it just a bit. I needed some fresh air. I needed to air her scent and the smell of her blood out of the room. I turned back to look at her, and she was holding three fingers to her neck. I could have died if it were possible when I saw the blood on her fingers when she pulled them back. She got off the bed and walked into the bathroom, closing the door. How the hell could I have been so stupid? I got so caught up that I let my guard slip down too far. I'd put her in danger. It was already a battle controlling myself around her when she looked at me. I shouldn't have let my guard down
Bitten 20: Time to Think
Jillie's POV"Jilliannah." I jumped so hard it felt like I'd pulled something. I looked behind me, and Nunny was sitting under a gazebo. She motioned for me to come over. I walked slowly toward her. I sat on the bench beside her."What's the matter, dear?" Once again, I felt compelled to tell her, but what exactly was I supposed to say? Tell her that the guy I was in love with was a vampire, and I didn't know. Tell her that even though he wasn't human, I couldn't make myself stop thinking about him. How would I say something like that? She'd think I was crazy.
