Melrose- A new member of the Cullen family
Jenicca- I can't give it away...
Chapter 1- Welcome to the Jungle
The Cullens were in their peaceful home in Washington, glad that they were out of the isolated and unpleasant wasteland some called Alaska. They all sat in the living room, playing various board games while the others watched TV.
Melrose smiled. She was so thankful to have found this coven, no- this family that was generous enough to take care of her, though they had no idea about her mysterious past.
All of the sudden, they heard a sharp knock at the door.
"It's another vampire. I'll answer it." said Carlisle, walking towards the door at human pace.
He opened it cautiously, feeling instantly foolish when he saw who was on the other side.
The person standing there was a female vampire, with bright reddish-purple hair and striking blue eyes. She was amazingly beautiful, with an interesting smile and perfect features.
"I'm so sorry to interrupt you, but you see, my own coven disowned me, and I was wondering if, you'd, well… Consider letting me join yours. I'm Jenicca." She said, the sweetness and longing in her honey-like voice unmistakable.
"I am Carlisle. And this is Esme, Emmett, Rosalie, Japser, Alice, and Edward. How did you know we were here?" he asked, though immediately taken by her charm.
"I heard it from some others in the area. If you don't want me here I completely understand, I'll just be on my way." Jenicca said, turning to leave the house.
"No. Stay. We will just have to work out a few details." Carlisle told her politely.
"Thank you so much. You won't regret it for a minute." Jenicca said, smiling.
Much to everyone's surprise, she must have thought they'd say yes, because she'd already brought all her things here, and wanted to know which room she could have.
"You can have the room upstairs next to Jasper's, dear." Esme said cheerfully, obviously happy to have a new "family member".
"Thank you! Now, which one is Jasper?" asked Jenicca.
"I am." Jasper said, stepping forward.
Immediately, his eyes flew wide open. There was something about this woman (and he was not entirely sure what it was) that pulled him to her. It was as if something was going on in his head- like magnetism. And she smelled so good. It was definitely her blood, but not as though it was food. It made him dizzy.
Suddenly, Jenicca felt uneasy. She was an energy-draining vampire as well as a blood drinker, but never in her whole life had she sensed such an appealing energy as his. It was exhilarating, and she closed her eyes as they rolled back in her head. She clenched her fists and did her best to smile.
She took her things upstairs, still a bit lightheaded, and thought about Jasper. She had only ever wanted a human's energy, though she knew she could consume a vampire's as well. She wanted and needed his energy. And a way to take Melrose back to the Vulturi. Jenicca contemplated this whilst unpacking.
