1 |Running|

I ran and ran as far as I could go. I had been running for weeks from her and her minions. My name is Lillian Woods, and I'm a vampire. I was born in 1925 and turned in 1944 at the age of 19. However the person who turned me is a ruthless killer who has hurt more people that anyone could ever count. I was turned by Maria, she is the leader of the most ruthless southern army there is. After she turned me, she became aware of my power and used it for her own benefit. She trained me and told me about her last second in command. His name was Jasper, the second I heard the name butterfly flew through my tummy. I didn't know why but I felt connected to the name, I felt like I knew this person.

Maria told me he was a killer, who almost killed her and that if I ever betrayed her like he did she would hunt me down and kill me. It scared me so much I listened to everything she said and asked. I soon became the best fighter in the south, some saying that I was better than the Major himself. I thought Maria was my friend who loved me and would do anything to take care of me but I discovered that was not the case. The first time I dis obeyed her she locked me in a room with newly turned vampire males. Let's just say I left out of that room shattered and broken and disgusted. Maria told me that if I didn't want it to happen again that I had to behave.

So from then on I did everything in my power to please her, but when I did something wrong she threw me in the room with others awful men and let them do whatever they wanted with me. After years of this, I finally decided to leave. I was done with Maria, I had no idea how I would escape her but I wasn't staying there another day. So that night I snuck out of Maria's territory and ran. I ran as fast as I could and didn't stop.
