Vampire Bride Chapter 12 Part 1
CharlieMy office chair squeaks as I stretch my back against the curved seat back. I’m dreading having to tell Morgan of my departure. No doubt she’ll have questions I won’t be able to answer.I see her stand enthusiastically in the doorway. She almost skips to my desk. “Yes, Charlie.”“You’re awfully happy today. Is there something I’m not aware of?”There’s a blush that attacks her cheeks. “No, just stuff with James.” She crosses her legs only to uncross them. She repeats the gesture several times and after the third time I have to tell her stop. Her love-struck mood makes me want to gag. I place my hands on the desktop in front of me, intertwining my fingers.“Oh my gosh. What did you do to your hand?” She gasps.I see her extend her arm out as if to touch mine, but I slide my hands back onto my lap. “I broke a plate last night, nothing serious.”Morgan sucks in a breath and has a look of sheer horror on her face as she eyeballs me. “Your…your neck.”Shit. I forgot to cover my neck

MaxwellAs soon as the sun set, I left Grace’s house. I wanted to be as far away from there as Charlie did. But with a few days passed, I have to go back. A bad mood accompanies me as I make final preparations for my unwanted trip. As if I own the house, I enter through the front door without knocking. The quietness that lingers within the halls is upsetting.Where is she, I say to myself as I search the first floor with no luck. However, the open patio door in the kitchen gives away her location.I instantly spot Grace’s pale body that seems to glow slightly in the darkening sky in a swimsuit with sunglasses on, lying on a lawn chair. “Do you think I can get a tan from the moon?” she asks as I stand alongside her.“The moon’s not even out yet.” Is that why she’s in a bikini? She’s trying to get a tan?“I know the moon’s not out yet, you idiot, that wasn’t the question. What do you want that’s so important it can’t wait for another day?” Annoyance distorts her voice.“I need to ask yo

CharlieMorgan acts strangely at work the next day. She constantly smiles in my direction as if she knows something I don’t. Every time I try to talk to her she scampers off claiming to be busy or pretends to be on the phone. She still doesn’t admit to hiding anything even after the phone rings loudly in her ear, catching her in her lies.In order to ignore her peculiar behavior, I stay in my office. I was planning on staying late to get as much work done as possible to make up for my departure, but at six o’clock Morgan leaps through my doorway. Her booming voice that fills the room causes me to fumble my pen as my body convulses in a tremor from fear. She runs over to my desk, piling up all my papers, insisting that I head home. My brain barely has time to register what’s going on before she starts pushing me out of my own chair.“What’s going on with you? You’ve been acting weird all day. You’re not having your boyfriend over here again, are you?” Keeping some authority in my tone,

Maxwell“Something wrong?” I ask. The irritation in her voice as she yells Grace’s name is more than humoring to my ears.“Something wrong…something wrong! This is what’s wrong, Maxwell.” She pulls out a skimpy nightgown that’s mostly see-through. “You had something to do with this, didn’t you? She packed lingerie as my pajamas. First there’s only one bed and now this.”“I just instructed her to pack what was necessary, not what I would want.” The effort I have to put forth in not smiling or laughing takes a great deal, but I remain calm and unfazed by Grace’s joke. I walk up to her and place the thin fabric between my fingers. A smile spreads across my face, ruining my demeanor. I can’t help the words from slipping out of my mouth. “You had this in your drawers?” My eyebrow perks up in speculation, wondering if I’m missing some crucial piece of information. “And who did you plan on wearing it for? Or should I say who have you worn it for?” I tease even though I know very well that sh

Charlie“Charlie…Charlie, wake up.” I ignore Maxwell’s whispers by burying my head into my pillow. His voice sounds too close for comfort, but when my forehead is scratched by something that feels similar to facial stubble I freeze up.My mind analyzes the scene before my body starts moving. My head’s not nuzzling into a pillow, it’s snuggling into Maxwell’s shoulder. As the feeling to the rest of my body starts to perk up, I find myself curled up against his cold rock hard body all the way to my toes. My arm drapes across his bare chest, my leg intertwined with his. What seems like minutes, but most likely is mere seconds later, I leap backward, swearing under my breath.My body over jumps and is on the verge of falling out of bed altogether, but Maxwell’s strong grip pulls me fully back onto the mattress. “What did I do?” I point to myself in shame and immediately blame him instead. “What did you do?” But the blame settles on my shoulders as I contemplate if I actually could have do

Maxwell“I’m so sorry that I wasn’t able to meet you when you were in town. I’m quite the busy girl back at home.” The fake tone in her voice is nerve-racking and I can only hope he doesn’t pick up on it.Eugene stands there for a few seconds without saying anything. I grow weary waiting for him to reply. “Are you sure we haven’t met before? You look familiar.”Charlie instantly becomes tense as we both come to the same conclusion; he remembers seeing her at Junction 22. “I don’t think so. I would’ve remembered meeting such a handsome man as yourself.”I pull her closer to me, almost crushing her. She pats my chest, reassuring me that she has this under control, but I’m not sure her flirting can get us out of this if Eugene connects the dots. “Not as handsome as this one here,” she says as she looks up at me, continuing to take the reins of the conversation. As if we had this all planned out, our eyes met. Without warning, she kisses me.“I don’t know what we were all worried about, s

CharlieFully submerged in the tub, limbs gently floating in the warm water, relaxation takes over every inch of my body or so I thought. My mind begins to wander. Maxwell’s supposed jealousy and Dave’s need to insert himself back into a romantic position. It’s too much and just a bunch of stupidity if you ask me.There’s not a doubt in my mind that Maxwell has this idea that coming here will bring us closer together, but part of me refuses to make him right. I’m not ready to admit that I think he’s attractive, caring, intelligent...Jesus I need to get a hold of myself. I’m not ready to lose whatever it is that I’d lose being with him, be it my beating heart or humanity. My head gently rests against the rim of the luxurious bathtub with heavy eyelids. Quietness mixed with the lightweight warmth the bath gives me is a bad combination. I shoot up from under the water, gasping for air. I didn’t realize I actually fell asleep until I tried to breathe underwater. Water runs in thick trail
Vampire Bride Chapter 15 Part 2
MaxwellI hear the door open and the soft tip toe of feet. “Charlie, you’re here early. Just make yourself comfortable. I’ll be right out.” In a rush I get out of the tub. I’ve been soaking in hot water to warm my body temperature up so I’m not so cold to the touch.I exit the bathroom wrapped in nothing but a towel. Charlie lies in bed completely covered. A pile of clothes is at the foot of the bed. I don’t think twice about the 360 degree change in her behavior. My excitement clouds my judgment.I lined the room with candles and have romantic music playing in an effort to show her that we belong together, that loving me isn’t all that bad. There might be a monster lurking inside, but it will only protect her, not hurt her like she thinks. She’s right, secrets are just as bad as lies.I crawl into bed, stopping mere inches away from her naked body. “I must say I’m quite surprised at your turnaround.”She scoots toward me. Her buttock rests against my manhood.“Charlie,” I whisper in
