THE LION, THE LAMB, AND THE SOCCER SNOB...

Raven's POV:

"I love you Raven..." Alexander breathed against my hair as we lay in his coffin. You can quite accurrately say that my days alive are numbered. Alexander has promised that when I graduate at the end of this school year, we'll tell everyone we're moving to a different state. The only thing is, we won't be moving to a different state, we'll be moving to Romania to live with Alexander's parents. Once safely nessled away in his castle, I'll be turned into a princess of the night and be able to spend all of eternity with my prince. My love. My lion. And no one was going to stand in my way.

I laid against his chest and let his three sweet words seep in. "I love you too." I murmered. I needed Alexander like any person needs air. He's my forever and I love him more and more each day. I'm 18 now and alot has happened in my life. My best friend Becky and her boyfriend Matt are engaged but they're keeping it a secret until the last week of this school year. I'm also finally growing into everything about me that was ever unshapley. My nose isn't as big, my legs have good shape, and everything else in between.

Alexander began to squirm alittle. Nightfall must be coming. I opened my eyes and tried to squint against the dark and catch a glimpse of his face. No such luck. He chuckled, knowing what I was trying to do since he could see in the dark. As I tried to make myself comfortable again, the door to the coffin swung open to reveal Jameson, Alexander's butler and close friend of the family.

"Good morning young sir. Good morning Raven." He greeted. I blushed alittle at Alexander's and my current state. Jameson never seems to mind seeing our affection. I guess he's just glad to see that Alexander is finally relating to kids his age. I wiggled out of the coffin and began to put on my combat boots while Alexander drank the water Jameson had brought him. This summer has been amazing and so much in the vampire world has happened. I visited Aunt Libby and was able to find Alexander in Hippsterville, I found out that a vampire club called 'The Dungeon' exists within the Coffin Club, and Alexander is finally back in Dullsville.

I only wish that Alexander and I could visit 'The Dungeon' again but sadly, summer will be over tomarrow and school will take over my day life again. Although all these things have been exciting and I've got to do all of them with Alexander, all the danger I've been put in and all the darker things I've learned about the vampire world have made me not completely sure I'm ready to say goodbye to the sun. I looked over at Alexander who was now putting on his combat boots as well.

"So what will be be doing tonight?" I asked with a giddy smile, determined to make our final summer night meaningful.

"It's a secret." He purred, showing a fang. Seeing it made a shiver of excitment shoot down my spine. Was he going to bite me tonight? Had he changed his mind about postponing the date? I looked away to hide my face, which was twisted in excitment and fear. When I was able to look back at him, I saw the trace of a frown at the corner of his mouth. His dark eyes looked soulful and empty.

I reached over to touch his arm and ask what was wrong, but he jumped up and extended his hand to me before I could.

"Let us hurry. My grandmother can't wait much longer." He chidded. He was speaking of his grandmother's grave in Dullesville's cemetary. I laughed and took his hand, pushing the previous look on his face to the back of my mind.

--------------------

As we neared the cemetary on foot, Alexander's shoulders seemed to tense more and more. Was whatever bothered him at the mansion still on his mind. I reached over and touched his face. He gasped and held his breath as we stopped moving all together. For three incredibly long minutes, we stood there, as still as stone. He held his breath so long, he began to turn blue. "Alexander, breathe!" I screamed. He let in a ragged breath and looked at me with wide black eyes. His eyes were never black, only a deep chocolate brown.

I took a step back instinctively out of human fear. What is wrong with him? "Alexande-" before I could even finish his name, he had me pinned to the ground, fangs bared, glaring at my exposed neck.
