Bitten After Midnight Chapter 20: You’re Not Staying Alone
DelaneyBy the next morning, I felt like absolute shit. Not sick, which would have been easier.There was no sore throat, no cough, no congestion, nothing I could point at and say, There. That’s the problem.Instead, my entire body felt wrong. It was too warm, too sensitive, too aware. The inside of my sweatshirt scratched against my skin even though I’d worn it a dozen times before, and my hair brushing the back of my neck made me want to scream.Every sound in the hallway seemed louder than usual: doors shutting, shoes hitting tile, someone laughing two floors down, a shower running somewhere nearby. My skin felt fuzzy. That was the only word I had for it. Like static lived underneath it, like every nerve ending had been turned up too high.And I was exhausted, completely and miserably exhausted, which made no sense, because I’d slept almost nine hours.I rolled onto my side and pulled the blanket over my head.My stomach growled, loudly, and I closed my eyes. “No.” Another growl. “
Bitten After Midnight Chapter 19: Not Supposed to Know
DelaneyBy the time we got back to the house, I had gone from confused to angry to exhausted and somehow circled all the way back around to angry again.Kellan barely spoke during the drive. That should have been comforting, but it wasn’t. Silence with Kellan usually meant he was thinking, and silence with Kellan after finding out three tubes of my blood were sitting in a campus lab somewhere meant he was planning. I hated that even more.The second we walked inside, everyone was already there.Darian stood near the kitchen island with his phone in one hand, and Rhys was pacing. Jett sat on the edge of the couch, bouncing one knee, while Naomi and Harper sat at the table and Callan leaned against the counter.The kitchen smelled of coffee gone bitter on the burner. Every head turned toward me, and I stopped in the doorway.“Oh, good.” Nobody spoke. “I see we’re having another emergency meeting about my body.”Harper winced.Callan pushed away from the counter. “Delaney.”“No.” I held
Bitten After Midnight Chapter 18: They Took Your Blood?
DelaneyKellan made it to my dorm in under ten minutes. I knew because I checked, twice, and not because I was waiting for him. Obviously.I was standing in the hallway with my arms crossed when he came around the corner, moving fast enough that two girls stepped out of his way without being asked.His eyes found me immediately, then the open dorm room behind me, and his expression changed. It wasn’t dramatic, because Kellan didn’t do dramatic, but his jaw tightened and his shoulders went rigid, and whatever softness usually appeared when he looked at me disappeared.“Are you hurt?”“No.”“Did you see anyone?”“No.”“Did you touch anything?”I blinked. “Hello to you too.”“Delaney.”“I’m fine.”“That wasn’t what I asked.”I sighed. “I touched my own stuff because I didn’t realize someone had broken in until I noticed things were moved.”His mouth flattened. “Okay.”That was all he said. Then he walked past me into the room, and I followed.“You know, normally people ask permission bef
Bitten After Midnight Chapter 17: Bloodwork
DelaneyI almost canceled the appointment.Not because I suddenly thought nothing was wrong with me. Quite the opposite. There was clearly something very fucking wrong with me.But after everything that happened yesterday, sitting in a brightly lit campus health center and explaining that I could hear conversations through walls, see in the dark, heal in under an hour, and apparently blow out windows with my emotions felt like a direct path to a psychiatric evaluation.Still, I went, because seven cryptic assholes refusing to tell me the truth did not qualify as medical care.The nurse called my name at nine fourteen. “Delaney Mercer?”I stood, and she smiled and led me down a hallway that smelled of rubbing alcohol and burnt coffee. “Go ahead and step on the scale.”Easy enough. Then came blood pressure, pulse, and temperature, and she stared at the screen. Then she checked it again, and I noticed.“What?”“Nothing.”I almost laughed. Apparently that word had infected the entire camp
Bitten After Midnight Chapter 16: Not Here
DelaneyNobody spoke until we were three blocks away from campus. Not me. Not Kellan. Not Callan. Not Harper. The silence inside Darian’s SUV was so thick I could practically feel it pressing against my skin.I sat in the back between Harper and Naomi with my arms crossed tightly over my chest. Kellan was in the passenger seat. Callan sat beside Darian. Jett and Rhys had taken another car. Apparently, getting me away from campus had required an entire fucking evacuation plan.I hated that. I hated how organized they were. I hated how quickly they had moved when everything went wrong. And I hated most of all that none of them had looked surprised. Scared, yes. Concerned, definitely. But surprised? No.I looked down at my forearm. The cut from the shattered glass was nearly gone. All that remained was a thin pink line. My stomach turned.Harper noticed me staring at it. Her hand shifted toward mine, and I moved away. She stopped. That hurt expression crossed her face again, and I looked
Bitten After Midnight Chapter 15: Everything Breaks
DelaneyThe first thing to go was the lights.One second, the student center was bright and loud and full of people pretending not to stare. The next, darkness. Complete. Absolute. Someone screamed. A chair scraped violently across the floor. Then the emergency lights flashed red along the walls.My breathing stopped. Not because I couldn’t see. That was the problem. I could. Perfectly. Every table. Every face. Every wide pair of eyes turning toward the ceiling, toward the café, toward me.“Delaney.”Harper’s voice cut through the noise. I heard her like she was standing inside my head. I didn’t move. I couldn’t. Something inside me had gone horribly, horribly still.Camille backed away. “What the hell?”The glass beside her trembled. Then another. Then every drinking glass on the nearest three tables started rattling against the tabletops.“What is happening?”“Earthquake?”“No, I don’t feel anything.”A bottle toppled over. Then another. Silverware vibrated against plastic trays. My
