She doesn't believe the all the hype the students make about a what's only a myth, yet she quickly discovers her attendance in the school was part of a dark plan that would be soon put into play...

Prologue

Everything was simple in my safe little world, yet the things on the outside that shouldn't exist exhibited a dangerously dark allure. Vampires, creatures that lived in the dark, basking in the light of the moon and never to enjoy the warmth of the sun(or so I believed from all the stories I've read in books and seen in old movies), fascinated me.

It's not something I thought was important to worry about - whether or not the 'what if' theories people had about the 'supes' (the new slang word teens were calling them)were true. Even if I did know what could happen when the unlock started to open the corners of my mind.

Something feels different... this feeling of being watched...

I always felt that whenever I would walk home after hours in the library, never really daring to turn around to look for the echoing footsteps, even though my mind was screaming at me to break out in a run for my life.

"Rather strange, isn't it? I thought we wiped out the last of the Fae?"

The voice sounded deep and melodic, each word spoken darkly. My brows scrunched up in the confusion that emerged across my face. I looked for the source of the voice that startled me out of walking altogether, shivers racing through my body.

Fae? What the hell is this idiot talking about?

This strange creeper with his lucid fantasy was clearly off his rocker with whatever deluded thoughts he had about seeing some dainty tiny creature with wings. Just calm down, Aimi. Whoever this creep is, he needs to take a walk back to the looney barn.

Rationally speaking, this was probably just some poor hobo lost in his imagination, wanting to feel he was entertaining others with his crazy delusions. Sudden, recurring footfalls started up again slowly until beads of sweat trickled down my face, the rush of adrenaline kicking up in my system.

"Such a delicacy... your scent is driving me insane, but it's been a decade since my last drink of you tasty morsels. "

Now fear started to etch itself deeply in my senses, and not caring about staying calm, I broke off into a sprint. Howling wind blew my hair wildly behind me as I sprinted, never ever glancing back at my pursuer. I feared that if I stopped, death would be at my door.

Next time, Aimi, remember not take the late shift at work.

I scolded myself for taking on the other hour of work which got me in this mess. The voice kept changing it's distance from behind my back to above me, making my eyes shift to the buildings hoping to find the source of the shadow.

"Run as fast as you can little kitty. It looks like you won't get to live out those nine lives."

"Damn it!" I cursed. The voice kept following me wherever I ran, and it was clear that whoever this person was, he was definitely persistent. His whispers and taunts were coming from everywhere; above, below, behind, in front… the further I ran, the more I discovered I could no longer tell where the guy was.

I stepped into an alleyway, hoping to dodge through the narrow streets and escape, but almost as soon as I entered I found myself at a dead end. Heart pounding in my ears and trembling with fear, I looked around to see if there was anywhere I might go.

"Looks like the little princess is trapped. Unfortunately, there's no knight in shining armour to save her now!"

I didn't dare to turn round, didn't dare to even breathe, as I sensed the man approach me. Footsteps, light and quiet, sounded from the other end of the alley. I felt a warmth on my neck as my pursuer neared me, giving a breathy chuckle. I clenched my fists; there seemed to be no escape from this situation. I just hoped that whatever this guy wanted from me, he'd try to take it quickly and painlessly.

Suddenly, the man froze, before letting out a scream of terror. I whirled around quickly to discover that he was gone, merely a black shape rushing back down the alley. A howl from a wolf, loud and vengeful, pierced the night, and I pressed a hand to my chest in relief.

"Thank God…" I murmured. "That creepy guy's gone…"

Despite this, as I struggled out of the alley, I had a feeling that this wouldn't be the last strange encounter I had. I could hear it again; the wolf's howl, from barely a few feet away. It made me shiver, but also brought a sense of comfort. A wolf, powerful and loyal, protecting me from a creep like the one that had just appeared was just what I needed right now, no matter how dangerous the animal might be.

Even so, I had the oddest feeling that somebody was still watching me...
