Alle Kapitel von Dawn of the Vampires : Kapitel 1 – Kapitel 10

Unsheathing her sword from her back, Harley spun around just in time as another one of the evil abominations tried to launch an attack and swung her sword, slicing the vampire directly across its chest. It let out an ear piercing shriek as black blood spilled out through its open wound. Dodging another attempted attack, she swung her sword again, this time aiming for its throat. The vampire fell to its knees, giving her an advantage. Sheathing her sword, and retrieving the stake that she had dropped earlier in the fight, she slowly walked over to it. Looking into its stone cold eyes, she brought her knee up and struck it in the face, causing it to fall flat on its back. She knelt down beside him and swiftly jammed the stake in its chest. With one final shriek, the vampire wriggled before bursting into nothing but ashes. Adrenaline pumping through her body after the kill, she took off in the direction that she was headed in when the vampire had appeared. A long night of hunting had f

Still coming down from the fight, Harley nodded her head as she was too breathless to speak. If he had wanted to kill her, there was no doubt that she would be dead already. Unless he was playing mind games with her. In complete disbelief, all she could do was stand completely still and stare at the monster that had just saved her life. She could feel the heat rising in her cheeks as found him even more dazzling the longer she stared. Though what caught her attention the most was his eyes. The jewel blue twinkled against the night sky, holding a warmth that she had never seen before in a vampire's eyes. "I- I don't know. Can I?" She retorted. "That's not for me to decide." He informed her. Rolling her eyes, she was slowly beginning to regain herself and focus a little more on the conversation they were having and not his charming looks. Clearing her throat, she looked him up and down once more. "Well, how can I trust someone who I've not only just met, but who also hasn't formall

In the time that Harley had been out, the sky had turned a deep purple colour, a few claps of thunder had erupted from the clouds and it had begun to rain heavily. Brushing her wet hair out of her face, she squinted to see where she was heading. The torrential downpour had made it difficult to even keep her eyes open without them stinging from rain water. Despite the lack of roaming vampires due to their leader's plan, she knew that a good few wouldn't be able to resist coming out during a storm since it enhanced their thirst for a short period of time. After all, the more blood thirsty they were, the less control they had over themselves. She shivered as the rain soaked her clothes, causing them to stick to her skin. She carried on walking, though she couldn't see and her hands and feet were frozen. There was no doubt that she would end up with a cold considering she had to stay out until sunrise. Before she could take another step, she found herself almost flying through the air as

"You can't? What do you mean you can't?" She questioned, letting out a heavy breath.He flopped his head against her shoulder briefly before stepping back to put some distance between them. As much as it killed him, he couldn't risk hurting her again."I mean I can't, Harley. I'm sorry, but I can't risk your life. As much as I would like to kiss you right now, I can't let it happen." He sighed. "But…" "No! I already hurt you once tonight, I can't risk doing it a second time." Harley closed her eyes and hung her head in acceptance. Deep down she knew that he was right, but it still hurt just the same. Speaking to a vampire was risky, let alone dating one, and she hated to think about the consequences if her father ever found out. "Go." "Come on, there must be something I can do to make it right with you. Maybe I could-" He began to make a suggestion but stopped as she shook her head."Please, Mason… Don't make this any harder than it already is. Just go." She pleaded in a whisper.

Quietly slipping into the den, trying not to draw attention to himself, Mason avoided the main cave and continued down the tunnel into a smaller cave. He sat down on a particularly large rock and sighed heavily. As a vampire he could have fallen in love with anyone; another vampire or even someone else from the Dark World, but instead he had fallen in love with a mortal. Not just any mortal either, but a hunter. It was the worst thing he could have done, and he would be lying to himself if he ever thought that there was a way to be with Harley and not put her in constant danger. Walking away from her had been painful. He felt hollow, empty inside and there wasn't a vampire in the entire coven that could change that. He thought about giving up; no longer drinking blood and just letting himself dessicate, but it would not be a smart move. Demitri would never allow him to slip away… Though perhaps if he knew that he'd been deceived then he wouldn't care. Shaking the thought away, he lif
