Prologue

I'd been living in Texas for a long time, but soon, it was getting out of hand there. I was trying to be a neutral; not get involved in anything they were fighting about, but it was getting harder to do everyday.

Live in the south is hard for a vampire; there are a lot of rivalries, and sometimes fights break out between covens. I'd been living with another vampire, Thomas, but the he was starting to pick a side, which at the start neither of us was going to do.

By now I'd decided to live with an old acquaintance. From what I knew about the people he was living with, when I made the decision, they knew I was coming.
