Chapter Fifteen
Riley just stared at me questioningly the whole way to the mansion. I guess he gave up on trying to figure out what was going on and just figured I’d explain everything later. I would. Barring the next kidnapping.
We pulled into the underground entrance, and the boys pulled Chris out first. He was still unconscious, serves him right. They didn’t tell me where they were taking him, just disappeared. I’ll find out later, if anyone should know, it’s me since he was after me to begin with. There are still a lot of unanswered questions that I have. I better help Riley understand things better first, he deserved that much after this experience.
As soon as we walked in, Cooper ran to me. I forgot they’d picked up my dog and not a minute too soon. I’d hate to think of what could have happened to him if the Barton gang showed up at my house. I pet his fl

“Once upon a time, in a kingdom long ago” I took off my shoe and threw my shoe at him. Riley sat to my right and snickered. “Ow!” Mitchell yelled. “Fine, I’ll be serious. But really, it was a long time ago. There are stories about your family. Consider them essentially vampire fairy tales. We’ve all heard myths about your bloodline and of your family. Originally, your family was a line of witches.” “Witches? Ha!” “If you insist on interrupting me this time, I will not tell you. Thi

When I woke up the next day, Cooper was by my side, snuggled up to me. My brother was safe and under the same roof. Madison had a bodyguard stalking her 24/7. All was right with the world. I checked my phone and realized I’d still never reached out to my sketch artist man friend, Eric. He probably thought I’d forgotten about him. Seven missed texts. Apparently, he’d been worried about me. I messaged him and let him know a bit about what had been going on, the summarized version. Enough for him to know I’m not staying at my house anymore and for right now, I didn’t know when I’d be able to get together. I’m not sure that we should get together, but I left that part out. As much danger as I’d put my brother and Mads in just be knowing them, I didn’t want to add someone else into the mix. It’d probably be better for Eric to never see me again at this rate. Things weren’t looking promising, unless I moved another person into the mansion. Mitchell would murder me himself.
The Dark Side of Dallas Chapter One
I died on a Monday. There is not a single good thing about Mondays. You wake up, you end up dragging ass while getting ready. You spend the whole day trying to get back into the “weekday” routine. Nobody wants to be at work. The coffee doesn’t do its job, you’re running behind half the time, and sometimes you die. Or is that just me? It started out as a normal day. I hit the snooze three times and woke up fifteen minutes later than I needed to be up. I ran out the door, with my coffee in hand, to make a twenty-minute drive in ten minutes. When I arrived at my office and got out of the car, I tried and spilled coffee all over my blouse. Of course, I did. I was wearing white. My tits were a magnet for messes, especially when they were covered in white. When I opened the front

I opened my eyes to find myself in a strange bed (with a killer headache). I was starving. And the bed wasn’t so much a bed as it was a bag. A body bag? Whatever it was, I couldn’t see a damn thing. It was like a wraparound black out curtain. It also was not the easiest to open from the inside. That is fine though because I felt like I had full strength. Or was this more than my normal strength? I tore the bag open in one quick deafening ripppppp. The room around me was not familiar at all. It had blinding bright lights, stainless steel surfaces throughout, and several strange looking instruments. Was I in a morgue? This must be a morgue. Or Funeral Home? Obviously, not a hospital room with intentions of improving my health. The goal here seemed to be aimed more towards cutting me open. Ouch. &nbs

I woke up startled by a loud banging sound. I hate that feeling. It’s like you’re pulled back to wakefulness while the air is being jerked out of your lungs in shock. It’s the opposite of that terrifying fake falling feeling you get when trying to go to sleep. What was that noise? Was there construction? At 5 am?? Surely, there are laws against that. I opened my eyes and sat up. The bang sounded again, and I realized the sound was someone knocking, loudly, on my front door. Who is banging on my door at 5am? I grumpily dragged myself up to door to peer out the peephole and see who it was. Maybe it’s an emergency. It had better be an emergency. Mads. Mads, that who is awake at five in the morning banging on my door. Who does she think she is?? She knows I need to be at work in a couple of hours! I never get up this e

So, I’m a vampire. What does that even mean? Obviously, I need blood. That seems to be a consistent theme for vampires. But all other vampire ‘rules” seem to vary based on which author is telling the story. I need to remember everything I’ve ever read or seen about vampires. Stakes through the heart or beheading can kill – fairly certain. That seems to be pretty consistent between tales. Could I go out in the sun? I’m not sure. It was night when I was out last. The sun would be rising soon, and I could test that theory out. Would I die if I don’t drink blood? And how long could I go without? I guess I will have to test that out as well. What else was there…? Oh! Crosses. Godly things. And sometimes they can’t enter houses without an invitation. That’s all I rem

The Texas sun was blazing as we stepped out. I couldn’t feel cold, but I could feel the warmth. I looked down at my skin to see if I was on fire. No, not yet. I took another step out of the door. I was fully immersed in the sun now. I felt fine. As fine as dead can feel. I can leave the house in the daylight. Score one for Rachel. Take that Mr. Bitey. Wait, if I can go out, I’m sure he can also be out in the sun. Still. Score one for Rachel. It was only a little after six am. No stores would be open yet. It was still reassuring to know that I wasn’t destined to live in the dark for the rest of my (undead) life. Cooper happily ran away from me in the backyard, he was prancing around in his usual outside happy dance. I grabbed a ball to play fetch with him. I reached my arm back, threw the ball, and watched as it (ac

Home at last. I was in such a rush to leave, that I’d left my bike at the impound lot. Oh well. I hadn’t used it in eight years. Perhaps someone that can’t afford to get their car out will find use in it. I parked my car in my driveway, rushed inside, and headed straight for my bedroom. Time to pick out new clothes and shower. I should probably trash the clothes I’m wearing. Burn them. There is no way these stains are ever coming out of these clothes. I laid out a new outfit, cast aside the old, and hopped into the shower. Even my arms and legs looked deathly pallid. It was the first time I had seen them since I’d died. I searched for wounds, but I could not find any marks on me. I’d at least expect to see teeth marks on my neck, but there was nothing. I suppose
