Lust & Bites

Chapter 1

"Aaahh," I yelled as this Moroi threw me against the wall. I was in a pressured fight with this deadly vampire named Jensen.

"Shay, Shay, Shay," he said mockingly," you should have known better than to mess with me."

"Me mess with you?" I scoffed, "Yeah right. You had this comin' the day you cheated on me!"

Yes, me and Jensen dated. He was very sweet and charming until he turned me. At first I didn't know what he was doin' to me. Once I was completely changed he explained what he was gonna use me for. A blood whore. As long as the VDA didn't find out that was perfectly legal, unless I turned against him. He had stolen my heart and my virginity. When I had found out he cheated on me, I personally killed the skank he slept with. That brings us here today. Our fight was over the girl who he cheated on me with. I didn't even bother to know her name.

"Shay I loved her!" he yelled slamming me against the wall again.

" Yeah well that's what you told me! You said you loved me!" I shouted back, tears forming from the pain in my back.

Honestly I didn't want to do this but I lunged forward, sinking my teeth into his neck. I closed my eyes letting his wonderful blood run down my throat. He softly whispered "why" before completely dying out. I released my mouth from his neck, wiping the few drops of blood that ran from my mouth. I stood up and looked down at Jensen's dead body. I started crying but quickly stopped. I couldn't let down my guard. Not now. Not here. I could suddenly sense an approaching Strigoi. Strigoi only work for the VDA. No one was sure what the VDA was or what they did. All we know is they were good at making people disappear without a trace. I took off running on the opposite direction just to be safe. I didn't stop until I was in the safety of the little cabin I shared with my friends. Jaydee Taylor, Halley Prescott, Kendall Smith, Carlos Pizzarro, Logan Holmes, James Mason, and my sister Annabelle Lawrence. Oh , in all the haste I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Shaylee Lawrence, and I am a vampire.

…

" Oh god looks like Jensen banged you up pretty bad," Logan said taking a closer look at my cuts and bruises.

"I'll be okay, Logie," I said calling him by his nickname. He smiled as he used his healing power, that he recently mastered, to fix me up.

"So were's James and Carlos?"

"They went to hunt," Jaydee said, "hopefully they'll bring something back for once."

I laughed as she said that assuming they wouldn't. We all suddenly heard high pitched moaning coming from the back room.

"Sounds like Kendall and Anna are getting it on agaon," Halley said sarcastically.

"Apparently, we heard them all the way from the river," Carlos said coming through the door. I was about to say something when James came through the door, covered in blood. This really isn't anything abnormal but the blood was his.

"Oh my god James what happened?!" I asked worriedly.

He smirked at my concern.

"Don't worry, Shay. Bobcats put up a real fight," he said almost proud. "But you look pretty shook up. Are you ok?"

"Yeah, I'm ok," I said.

….

We had all eaten and me and James were cleaning up. James walked up behind me and put his hands on both sides of me. Pinning me against the counter.

"Are you sure you're okay, Shay?" he asked completely worried.

"Yes, James. I'm fine," I said looking up at him. "I promise."

"You don't seem fine. Your aura is like a gray color of anxiety."

"James I promise I'm fine," I said pushing him away from me. He sighed and started to walk away. Suddenly I collapsed. I opened my eyes a couple of times and saw everyone yelling. (Or so I thought. I couldn't hear them.) Finally, I just stopped resisting and let sleep engulf me.
