A chilling shiver went up her back. Her heartbeat accelerated thumping like a war drum in her temples as it traveled down her spine. She whirled around again looking from one suspicious shadow to another and around the alley. nothing. Nothing at all. However the instinct that had prompted her to accelerate her pace a few minutes before was now yelling in the back of her mind alerting her to the fact that she was not alone. She called her voice more firm than she had imagined Whos there?. Even from a drunk or a thief she nearly hoped for a response—something concrete to face. However the wind was the only one to respond a high-pitched whistle that seemed to mock her boldness. Her cotton glove

The house was almost in shape. "Dad, I don't buy this idea of inviting Siku and the vampire elders. I don't mind inviting Maddox and a few people from the Human Civilization City," Ragnor complained, trying his tuxedo. "I don't want them here either, but that is the law, or else Clara will never be accepted by the people. I will keep my eyes open, and so will Emily. She will be fine," George assured. "Once you invite them, they would have to sit with the guests where we can see them. I am sure by now they already know about this wedding and are planning their move," George added, and Ragnor agreed it was best to invite them.

For originals, we totally black out after being starved for weeks and would be out for blood. All I could see was red as when I saw Patricia lying on the floor. “What the hell?” Hendrick exclaimed when he saw Patricia after climbing up the boat. “Natasha, what the hell did you do to Steven?”

A multitude of vampires inhabited a dimly lit gathering, with only candlelight revealing their uniquely shaped features. Murmurs of their desires, laden with undisclosed intentions and aspirations, emerged softly like the gentle night breeze. Amidst the commotion, Alex sat as a guest, serene and poised. Yes, Alex was often invited into the midst of them - the undead - when things happened that disturbed their peace. Alex always thought that his presence here was representative of the human race. Considering that he was half-blood. Because it was impossible to include humans in a meeting of vampires. The misdeeds of the humans would instead become food for the vampires who could not control t

I absentmindedly ran my fingers through her hair. “I have recently come across some information that The Others are Vampires, at least four of them are. I’ve been trying to figure out a way to get into Lord Elwyn’s castle without looking suspicious to question their Ringmaster, Claude… Who apparently has been letting them hold secret meetings in his backroom for who knows how long… Apparently, luck is on my side though, because it just so happens that I have been invited to the annual Blood Ball. I normally ignore the request, but this is the perfect opportunity to get inside. It’s this Saturday evening, and I can bring two plus ones and our pets. Are you guys in?” I asked.

I heard Vera’s voice from the kitchen. “She actually walked in herself?” Adam asked. “Yeah,” Vera replied. “Maybe that stuff is just a myth.” “It isn’t, you actually have to invite them in or they get stuck at the door,” Vera explained. “Damn, at least we know now,” Adam said. It turned out that they had suspected I was a vampire all along. That's why they had been trying to invite me over to their house - they knew that vampires couldn't enter a home unless invited by the owner.

I swear if there is one more damn traitor I’m going to burn this whole place down! “Someone knows something,” I mumble, tossing around some papers. I quickly pick up a box of his nasty cigars and barrel them into the wall. I won’t miss that stench a bit! When I come up empty of anything useful, I dash outside and into the sky. Within an hour, I find myself at Quinn’s home, knocking on the door as if I’m there for a casual visit. A maid quickly opens the door and I don’t give a damn if it is in fact three in the morning. I push in and past her, having been invited in over a century ago. Hopefully no one is stupid enough to rescind my invite but I’ll take the chance. Most forget vampires have

"Well, she's good like you said. The best actually. But there are some difficulties and that was why we needed a human. See, there are some quite irritating limitations that comes with being a vampire–" "—like what? " "Like not being able to venture into some places. Some of our clients prefer having some unprecedented meetings at their various homes, due to preferences and security. But we are not given that same privilege to walk into human homes unless being invited. And compelling them to invite you is quite bothersome. Some minds fight compulsion, while some are too weak, if any mind shatters under compulsion, we cannot risk having a drooling lunatic. " Oh! Lyra suddenly realized why Sh

“But they also understand the importance of having a good time and enjoying themselves.” We sat in a quiet corner, going over the list of vampires we were supposed to meet. “There's a lot on this list, William. It's so detailed. Do we really have to consider their interests this much?” I asked. “Their occupation, they liked and even favorite blood type! There are even formalities and rules that should be adhered to during dinner.” Willliam told me, “It's important since Vampires are known to have their own set of rules and traditions.”
