“People Don’t Live Long Here”

Chapter 11She doesn't remember how she walked back to her room from the kitchen.Moments ago she was beside Gabriella with a knife in her hand, chopping vegetables, while watching how the maid's body was being carried past her.She sat on her bed, staring at the wall, the afternoon sun slanting through the curtain. She was unaware of how much time passed, but her hands were still shaking.That could be me.The words echoed in her mind.“If Khaled didn’t come earlier, his brother could have killed me,” she muttered to herself.It was true. What would happen if she kept being stubborn?Or kept on talking back to everyone.“You self make!! (You’re not even all that.)” She recalled the words she fired back at the brother when he shamed her looks the first day she arrived.She lay back, staring at the ceiling, replaying the events from the kitchen.Raphael’s shirt was undone, and he glistened with sweat.

The sudden brightness made her blink, but she tried not to show it.“It must be strange for you,” Lilith continued, her voice carrying a strange calmness.“Um, I’m not sure that I understand.““I know it must have been hard for you to find out that vampires are real and not just the stories you hear around, oh young lady.” “… It… it was,” she admitted, her eyes dropping to her l
