Later on that night after my sister had finally gone to sleep, I snuck out to meet Thomas and Darien. When I got there, the first thing that Darien did was throw a bag of A negative at me. As I drank my bag of A negative blood; I realized it didn’t taste as good as O negative, but it would have to do.“Now Tammy, while I was away I was having reports done on you. Both Darien and… another source both informed me that you were not drinking human blood anymore. That even when Darien offered you a bag when you invited him inside, you still refused it and kicked him out… Even after you told me you would start drinking normally again,” Thomas said quietly.I could tell that I had really upset him. He wasn’t yelling or even looking at me, rather talking to me like I was a child in trouble. Which I guess I was, in a way.“I was not feeling myself, I guess you could say. I… just didn’t feel up to it.”In the darkness of the woods Thomas said, “Depressed, Tammy, is more like the word to
I was on my sofa when Thomas gave me my blood coffee instead of my blood cocoa. There was something about mixing blood in with coffee that tasted oh so wonderful, and besides I needed the energy for what I was about to be told. “Now then, are we comfortable?” he asked. I nodded my head yes. He put his arm around me so I could snuggle closer to him. I sipped my coffee silently, not caring if the hotness burned my tongue.“Tammy?”“Yes?”“There’s some bad news that concerns you.”“Me? What bad news do you bear about me, Tom?”Tom breathed in deep and let out his breath slowly, “Tammy, the Vampire Council wants to move you up to Canada with them in their top secret facility. And then they want you to have a one-night stand with a mortal and get pregnant.”I spat out my blood-coffee and looked at him horrified. “THAT’S what the Vampire Council needed to discuss with you? That’s what was SO important about you taking off? What in the hell are they thinking? I don’t want any crot
“I’m not going to tell her! Not yet, she doesn’t need to know,” Thomas yelled at me.“Look, she has to know sooner or later about the Hybrid plans. You should get right on it especially since the Vampire Council wants her to have a baby. The plans are already set in motion,” I said.Tammy and I had gotten back from shopping sometime around noon, since we had such an early start to our day. We spent the whole day with each other. It was quite a sight to behold. I had never remembered spending so much time with her, not since our childhood anyway. We talked and laughed up a storm. I forgot how fun this was. I thought Tammy was going to hate me for the rest of her life. I couldn’t believe all she had to talk about either!Tammy talked about what she would have liked to have done, if she had not been selected by the Council, what she’d like to go to college for. The cute guys that were her type, and blushing over it. Blushing! I didn’t realize that she was capable of doing su
“Why didn’t you pick somebody else?!” I shouted at Thomas. “Why me? Screw your damn feelings, I want the truth!” I flipped over a chair. It was the next day and we hadn’t heard anything from them. The only order I had was to stay here in my room until someone came and got me. It was only eight at night, and I swear to God, I was slowly starting to lose my mind!Thomas picked up the chair and calmly put it back where it was supposed to go. “Tammy, I told you the truth on the plane ride here. I thought you were…”“Shut the hell up! You’ve lied to me about everything else, why start telling the truth now,” I yelled at him. “I don’t want to have this baby if that’s all they want to use it for! Don’t you think that maybe they could find somebody else,” I asked.Thomas shook his head, “they don’t want to wait so long anymore. That’s why you are their only hope, Tammy. I just wish…” Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Thomas opened it up, and tried to slam it shut again,
She was running through the woods laughing at the game she was playing, looking back every so often to see how far behind her sister was, and then she saw The Man. She came to a halt, almost tripping over a tree branch in the process as her hair whipped forward and she stared at him. He was dressed in nothing more than a simple gray t-shirt with blue pants and what appeared to just be regular boots. He seemed like a harmless man, but the way he stared at her made her want to run and hide from him. He was standing and staying still, breathing heavily, reeking of something that made her gag. “Little girl,” he had slowly said to her. His own voice startled him and made him gag when he smelled his own breath. The man he had feasted on was drunk, so Thomas hadn’t the need to knock him out after drinking from him. Clearly, the smell of his alcoholism had lingered on Thomas' breath along with the man’s blood as well. But it only bugged Thomas for a moment as he saw the girl before h
“I’m not! I track down and kill your kind! My only interest is finding out why Lucian wants you so badly,” said Selene, the heroine of Underworld. I watched the movie intently on my bed as I unconsciously rubbed the spot where I was bitten when I was six years old. I gazed down at my left shoulder, even though the bite marks had faded long ago it had left something else behind in return. Just like Blade from the movies, I am classified as a Daywalker. Meaning, I can walk freely around in the sun without worrying about it burning me into ashes, but I still craved human blood like any other Vampire. Vampires didn’t have to face my evil torture though; school. I felt a cool breeze ruffle my hair and I got up to close the doors to my balcony, but not before enjoying the breeze on my face. I shivered, closed the doors to my balcony, and crawled back on my bed. My thirst was coming back stronger every night it seemed, the shivers were a good indication of that. The more hungry yo
“It’s so nice to see you again, Tammy. How is school going?” “Same shit, different day. Got blood?” I asked. I couldn’t help myself, on the way here listening to Paul’s veins and heart pulse, I was about to let my fangs sink into his jugular and suck him dry. It didn’t help that he kept chewing on the bloodied lip of his and licking it back up into his system. “Heavens, you go through a bag faster than I can drink my coffee. Soon, you’ll have to start feeding on humans. Is this why you’ve brought this young man here today?” I licked my lips and looked over at Paul. He was as pale as I was, and shaking. I smirked, and looked back at Thomas. “Paul,” I nodded towards him, “wants to be a Vampire.” “Oh?” Thomas asked, raising an eyebrow at him. I looked over at Thomas and noticed he was in his usual dark black business suit, and his hair still looked brown with a little bit of gray speckles, naked only to the human eye. He was holding himself up, and looking like he was abou
“Hey, Paul,” I cried. Paul looked over his shoulder at me, quickly turned around and started walking faster. "What an ass," I muttered as I picked up my own place to catch after him. “Did you not hear me when I called your name,” I asked as I finally caught up to him. He shuffled his feet. “I did… but after last night, I didn’t want to see you again…” “I know what happened last night was really bad. But look, he wants me to invite you tonight. As a special guest… join us!” “I’d rather not,” he mumbled. I grabbed him by his collar, finally losing my temper. “Look, I know that Thomas almost drained you of your blood last night, but that doesn’t mean that you can just shut out the world of Vampires.” “Sure it does. All I have to do is just be safe in the sunlight,” he grinned at me. I smiled back and leaned in close to his face, “oh really now? Then how do I go to school?” His smile disappeared and he looked horrified. “That’s what I thought,” I said as my smile grew big
