Carly Simmions was a regular human girl…
Well not really, but we'll get to that later.
My life really started to change when my mother, Daliyh, remarried. I know what you're thinking it's another story about a girl who hates her new step-father, but it's not. Richard is fine. Seriously, he's nice and he's good for my mom; makes her happy. There are only two things wrong with the guy.
One…..well he just happens to be a vampire. Okay it might be a BIG problem. But he doesn't go around killing people for dinner or turning into a bat before morning to fly away. He sits at the table like everyone else; he just has a glass of blood instead of wine.
Vampires aren't what Hollywood movies make them out to be. They don't have to have blood straight from the source; they can have it from a bag. But they also can't have it from animals. You see like humans take energy from meat, a vampire takes it from blood. They can't have human blood because of the different characteristics; they take blood daily to replace the blood they use up. And vampirism or whatever you want to call it; isn't a disease. Its usually is genetic, passed on from sex, like AIDS or HIV. You know, two vamps get together, get it on, and then they have a little or a littler of hungry baby vamps that pester you until you die. Yep, just like AIDS. (Don't tell my mom I said that. She works with kids.)
But it can also be passed on to a human; though no one will tell me how, stupid blood sucking bastards.
The other wrong with the guy is that he has a Son! I don't hate him either, so don't think it! But we didn't get off on the wrong start.
You see, my mom and Richard decided to wait to tell us about each other till they thought we had gotten used to the idea of them getting married. But it was the night if their engagement party that they had no choice to tell us. I would have liked it better to never find out though, just my opinion.
This is where the not normal part comes in. I hate being around so many people.
