Chapter 1 My life or Unlife in general
I lay down staring at the ceiling of the room; a dull gray white covered with faint patterns. I was jolted out of my thoughts as something brushed past my head. I let my head fall limply to the side; Blue eyes meeting large curious brown ones. I smiled as I lifted one of my hands to pet the doe-eyed cat, he purred in delight.
"Hey Mr Tibbles" I whispered fondly as I stroked his soft gray fur, my reply was a soft 'meow' as he curled around my arm, closing his eyes as I snuggled closer to him. It was peaceful as I watched the silent rise and falls of the gray cats stomach the only sound was the traffic outside and humans going about their business noting else at all-
"GEORGEANNA BELLEROSE" a voice roared. My eyes widened and I screamed as Mr Tibbles shot up with a yelp of terror and landed surprisingly heavy on my stomach, his claws managing to dig into the flesh. I rolled to the side falling of the bed with a pained yelp, Mr Tibbles running under the bed after he landed beside me.
I jumped as the door slammed open hitting the wall with a deafening thud, standing there in the doorway was a tall dark haired man with the most bizarre eyes you could ever see; a bright yellow with a slit pupil exactly like that of a cats. He was wearing a trench coat and looked furious. I gulped.
"M-Mr Bane! W-What brings y-you here!" I stuttered. He narrowed his unnatural eyes at me " Well" he replied "I clearly remember you telling me that you would never be late for work again" he was glaring at me; if looks could kill I would be 6 feet under.
"AH DAMMIT" I yelled shooting up and snagging the clock on the bed side table. 8:30pm I was half an hour late, I shook it desperately hoping that the clock was faulty but alas no. I cried out falling at the feet of one Marcus Bane, my boss.
"Oh no I'm sorry, I'm so sorry I didn't check the time! You can take the money out of my pay check, please don't fire me!" I pleaded "Ohso you want me to take the money out of your pay check? Hmmm if I recall you asked me to do that before too and also before that-"I cut him off "OK, I'll just work for free for a few weeks" I muttered. He raised one eye brow "A few?" he asked. "Fine a month" I growled sitting up on my knees "You know you're going to have to owe me big time, vampire" he said "OK I get that I'll work without pay for a month... Wizard!" I hissed the last part, it didn't have the same effect. He smirked at me "Good then go get your uniform on then, you're working all night" he replied with a sly grin. Groaning I got up on my feet. He chuckled walking towards the door "Don't take too long dear" he called out behind him. Before the door slammed and the apartment was silent once again.
I scowled throwing the clock at the wall; it shattered on impact living a small dent in the plaster. There was a yelp from under the bed as two large brown eyes looked out from the shadow.
"Oh, Tibbles I'm sorry" I cooed as I picked him up in my arms "I didn't mean to scare you it's just that stupid man has weird wizard mental problems" I muttered as I hugged him to my chest.
"youcanthshtopdoingthatnowth"
"Jesus!" I yelled "No Georgie dear, I'm a cat not Jesus" the bundle of grey fur sighed, "seriously it creeps me out when you talk it reminds me that you're not actually the cat I raised and bought" I snapped glaring at him. The cat rolled his eyes; quite amusing when you thought about it. "Well I'm not the one who should be remembering that I'm in fact a demon inside a body of a cat" he spoke as if to a 3 year old, I released him from my grasp so he fell to the floor, he made a outraged hissing noise "OK, stop with the smart ass comments, It's not my fault some demon decided to possess my beloved kitty" I sniffed, he made a sound which vaguely resembled a snort at "beloved kitty" running out the room as I went to place a well aimed kick to his side. "Stupid demon cat "I grumbled as I turned to find my uniform. I swear I heard him make a sound that sounded like laughing from behind the door, I growled stupid evil talking demon cat.
I tumbled through the door and knocking into a few of the customers in the club, which earned me a few glares, as I ran up to the main bar. Leaping over the counter in front of a group of now shocked young adults I ran through a door to the back heading towards an office at the end of the hallway.
I knocked on the polished wooden door with a sign; Marcus Bane, Club owner on a golden plaque. "Come in" my hearing picked up from the room. Pushing the door open I stepped into the room; the walls were a red colour covered in posters and events to do with the club, a big wide screened TV sat on the right wall a plush two seated royal purple sofa sat facing it, on the left hand side sat a large dark brown desk and behind it sat my boss.
Eyes not leaving the computer screen he was working at he spoke "So? Miss Bellerose finally decided to join us?" he asked "If you're wondering why I took over an hour to get ready, you can go blame my cat, who thought it would be a good idea to steal my car keys, just as I was about to leave and then hide them in a very convenient place where I would never be able to find them, if I hadn't threatened to stop giving him his favourite treats for a week" I deadpanned. He chuckled under his breath looking over at me.
"I heard from Jean Claude about you knocking over a bunch of customers, you're not very graceful for a vampire are you?" he mused smirking at me "I was late I didn't have time to be graceful and that bouncer should just watch his own business" I muttered. "No matter then" he chucked" go get yourself ready then you can start your shift" I nodded turning and slamming the door shut as I left, I swear that guy laughs too much.
I shuffled into the private staff bathroom and stood looking at my reflection in the mirror; flawless pale skin, light blue eyes straight dark brown hair that ended at my shoulders, I looked like a very beautiful fifteen year old who should be at school not working at a club, but no one would believe me if I told them I was in fact twenty four. I had dropped out of school and moved to another town after I had been turned everyone I had known when I was human thought I was dead. I smiled sadly, I had no friends, Mr Tibbles was the only being that I had liked before that demon possessed him. Sighing I applied some make up and brushed my hair up into a pony tail. I was ready to start my 8 hour shift. Oh joy!
"Here are the five beers you ordered" I smiled as I placed the tray on a table surrounded by some middle aged guys "Is there anything else you need?" I asked polite"Aren't you a bit too young to be working here Missy?" surprised by the personal question I glanced over at the speaker, he was a gruff looking man with gray hair he was radiating authority; A police officer perhaps? I smiled innocently at him "No sir, I just happen to look younger than I am" a lot younger I added in my head. He nodded I could tell he was still suspicious. I smiled at them again this time it was strained; I would have to get another of the waitresses to serve them so I could avoid this man's questions. I turned back towards the bar, sighing as I sat down at a free stool.
"What's up with you, girl? You look down" I looked up at the bartender standing in front of me; he had tan skin black hair and big brown mischievous eyes. "Oh nothing Benny" I muttered "it's just some customers" his eyes narrowed "They haven't been-""No it's nothing like that their just asking about my age, I think one of them is a police officer" I shrugged, he looked at me a sad smile on his face "Aw Anna don't get down just cause you'll never age, you get to be young forever!" He leaned in" look at me I'm a werewolf I'm gonna get old n die" he joked. I smiled at him patting him on the arm "Benny just ignore my moody vampire ways" he chuckled ruffling up my hair "I don't like to see my friends moody, Anne" he smiled before turning and filling out an order. I mused on the fact he had called me a 'friend 'I had spoke with Benny whenever we saw each other and we had always been friendly, joking around he acted a lot like my human brother.
Maybe I could call him a friend.
After I had been turned I had been on my own, I had ran away knowing I could never live among family and friends again after I found out what I was, I had been heartbroken I had nobody left, the vampire that had turned me had just dumped me so I was left to learn on my own I have never met another vampire nor did I know if there was rules or a leader, not many supernatural beings came to this town.
Marcus had found me and given me a job after he came across me wondering around in a forest just outside the town, I had tried to attack him out of fear after he assumed I was a threat and continued on to use spells against me. He had only stopped after I started screaming about Harry Potter and Lord Voldemort being real from the top of a tree I had climbed, I had been very naive and daft back then.
Of course he found this to be amusing, just like everything that caused me misery and had given me a job and allowed me to hunt in the forest so I wouldn't attack humans. Animal blood was gross and it seemed to make me ill and weak. I cringed at the thought of having to hunt again soon.
"Excuse me?" I was pulled out of my thoughts as someone tapped me on the shoulder "huh?" It was the guy I thought to be a police officer "C-can I help you Sir?" I asked his friends were standing behind him"Yes, Miss I'm going to have to ask you to come with us to the police department" my mouth literally fell open "W-why?" I squeaked out."You are under the age of 18 working in a bar and living on your own without a guardian, you are thought to be a run away or orphaned by some concerned individuals that have visited this club" he continued "you're going to be taken to a orphanage in the nearest city and enrolled in Rose North high school" "R-rose North high school?" I almost fainted right there and then.
Rose North high school was the school I went to when I was human... and it happened to be on the same street my family had lived on. Oh no
