Chapter 7
One Month Later….
My red hair which was brown a month ago swayed in the breeze. The crisp air was strong in my nostrils . My newfound life was not like it used to be. Before I was human and had a shorter life span than I do now. Why was it so different? I looked back at the moment that Marcus’ blood had changed me. I was trapped in my head for the longest time, remembering what I had suppressed when I was six years old. I’ve been a vampire for over a month and I still didn’t understand how everything works. My hearing, my eyesight, and even the simple thing as speed. Marcus was teaching me how to tame the crave for blood but every now and then I found it complicated to focus on small tasks like I had before the crash. It was a headache and I had promised to try harder to control the urges that always seems to want to consume me.
“It will take time and practice before your able to fully control the blood lust that our kind has.

The pain had subsided and I was able to open my eyes. At first, everything was blurry from being out for a long period of time. I saw a woman’s face looking at me worriedly. She had silver like hair and eyes that saw through you. Not like I could care at the moment. I was awake and that is all that mattered. The room that I was in was dark, the curtains drawn shut, and a dim light was casting shadows in every direction. My sight on the other hand seemed different, my hearing enhanced, and a heartbeat. My head snapped toward the sound and saw a mouse moving alongside the crevice of the nearby wall. I drew my attention away from the tiny creature and back at the woman. “Where am I?” My voice was raw from not speaking and my throat was parched from the lack of water.“Your awake.” The woman said excitedly. I peeked at her once more before glancing down at my clothes which was stained with blood. “I’ll inform Marcus that your

I turned the shower on, allowing the water run for a bit so that way it could heat up. I loved showers because of how it made you feel afterward. Clean and refreshed. It was also my way of escaping reality when I had a long day at work or just to relax. I put my hand underneath the spay to feel it. It was hot enough to burn the skin but that was how I liked it. It helped my bones melt and and just enjoy the feeling of being alive. I was different. I felt it in the very depths of my soul. I wasn’t the mundane Emery anymore. My stomach ached all of a sudden and I clutched my abdomen as if that would relieve the pain but it didn’t. I turned quickly to the sink and hurled. Blood coming up from my throat, it tasted coppery, raw, and good but also food that I had ingested yesterday afternoon before all this happened. Chunks of whatever I ate was combined with it.The bathroom door opened and in came Nora as if she knew what was going on. “Are you alright?&rd

*Castle of Shadows*Sarene DeMarcoI leaned my hip against the grand marble windowsill overlooking the night veranda deep in thought. I had dawned my sleep wear for the day ahead. It was near midnight but she wasn’t ready for sleep. Our people were able to experience the sun from over the horizon and that was it before it peaked fully in the sky but in doing so had its’ effects. It slowed our ability to function. Our thoughts always a mess and vision blurs. In my opinion it sucked. The sun begins to rise around six o’clock in the morning which in itself five o’clock horizon. I was leader our people and as such I felt the urge to disband the position of my second in command, Gabriel Hues. At times he was a ruthless warrior who always sought out that he got his ways. I hated it more than my own people did. Of course, knowing Gabriel, I had a sense that he’d attempt to replace me by sending Rogues to destroy me. I feared when that day c

It was still night time and Marcus and I were outside standing a few feet apart from each other. The Owls hooted in the distance and crickets chirped in the nearby bushes. “What are we doing?” I asked Marcus, half yelling across the yard to him. He wore a grey jacket over a white shirt and black sweats.Marcus gave me a grin before saying, “Honing your skills some before we head in.” He positioned himself into a running stance and before I asked him what he meant, I heard a whooshing sound then tap on my shoulder. I turned and saw him standing there with cocky smile. “Over time you will get better at doing this,” He directed my attention to the tree line where it met with the forest. “Now you give it a go. Remember to focus and breathe.”“I thought vampires didn’t breathe?” I asked. “Or was the all folklore as well.” I bent down slightly and focused toward the forest. I heard Marcus giv

I peered at the girls from behind a tree bark, just behind their tiny cabin. Just watching as both of them spoke to one another. Marcus and Blake had gone elsewhere, probably to gather blood for all of them to last for a little while longer. So this is the new addition to the small group? I asked myself. She was beautiful along with her flame colored hair and delicate features. She had a nice figure to her. With decent hips and a nice rump. My ears perked as a sound came from behind me. My head turned toward the noise and I saw Gabriel. My heart dropped and I wanted to flee. What was he doing here? No doubt stalking me and making sure that I didn’t cause any trouble. I hated him for being so nosey and it made me want to punch him in the groin. “What are you doing out here by yourself?” His voice was like nails on a chalkboard. It made you want to cover your ears until the sound was gone. I stood up straight so that I wasn’t in view of the girls. Nora and the

Present Day/Night Nora & Blake’s P.O.VNora and Blake sat by the lake, on top of some rocks, watching the water ripple slowly in the wind. It was a fresh night and all the animals were out doing their own nightly business. There was a silence before Nora spoke, her voice quiet but able to be heard. “How much longer before this is over?”Blake whom stayed quiet as well looked at Nora and lifted a hand to push a lock of hair behind her ear. “I’m not sure,” his tone was soft and loving. “But I’m certain that Marcus is advising a plan to clear our names.” His hand went to grasp hers, giving it a small squeeze for comfort.“We didn’t do what Sarene accused,” Nora’s response a pout and Blake held back a small grin that quivered at the corner of his mouth. “As you know we’ve been elsewhere.”“I’m aware of this,” Blake said as calmly
Second Chances Chapter 14
I was alone. Even in all this. I was utterly and completely alone. I may not be when it came to Marcus and his friends but I was. I should've said no to being turned then maybe all this would have gone away but I felt at the time of dying, I had more to live for. What good is it when the people around you only care about themselves and your just on the sidelines waiting for something to happen? My life before this was just to go about my everyday life without batting an eye about the things that went on around me. I thought that by me getting another shot meant a fresh start. It turned out that I was wrong. Before my thoughts got out of control, I felt the hands of another on my shoulders and before I had the chance to protest or even scream. “Don’t even try to get help,” a male voice said from behind me. He radiated dominance and I felt like I should have called Marcus and the other two but I didn’t know what this person could do. “If you do then

I turned my attention back to Gabriel and took calming breaths to tame the fear that I was feeling but no matter how many I took, it still lingered like shadows in a deep dark void. "What did he ever do to you that wanted revenge?" I asked, keeping his attention to me. Gabriel scoffed and tightened his grip on me. My tone held fear but like any normal person, I wasn't. Not anymore."He hasn't told you the story bout Him and I?" Gabriel's tone sounded surprised and I arched and eyebrow in confusion. "Looks like I get to tell you my story first." He seemed thrilled by the idea but then I used my peripherals to only to notice that Marcus was right behind Gabriel. A smirk curled his lips and a fang peered out, gleaming beneath what moonlight seeped through the tree line."Doubt you would get a chance." I mumbled before my own fangs came out and I bit him harder than thought I could. I heard Gabriel grunt as I spun out of his grip. but before Gabriel could react Marcus put
