Prolog

This is the sequel to Deadly Love.  In order for this to make sense you might have to read the story or at least the last chapter.

            Serena walked into her empty apartment.  She had no friends, no pets, no nothing.  The only thing she did have was her jobs.  Her day job consisted of being a secretary; her night job consisted of killing vampires.  She was unfortunately half vampire herself and 179 years old, about to be 180 in a week.

            Serena changed into jogging pants and a shirt with "piss me off and die," printed on the front.  She flopped down on the couch and flipped on the TV.  "And in local news another girl was found dead, this time in an abounded warehouse, cause of death unknown.  Serena knew what the cause was, she dealt with it everyday.  She grabbed for her knife when she heard someone knocking on the door.  She slowly approached the door, "Whose there?"

            "A friend?"

Serena laughed, "Try again, I don't have any friends."

            "I'm the manger."  Serena did not have friendly neighbors so she often was complained about.  She yanked the door open, "Now what?"

The man in the hall was defiantly not the manger.  He corners of his mouth turned up in a grin, "You get complained about often?"  Almost like if he had read her mind.

            "Do I know you?"

            "I'm deeply hurt, you do not remember me from the bar?"

            "Oh right, one of the annoying jerks, yes how could I forget?"

The man leaned against the doorframe, "you sure do know how to bring a grown man to is knees."

            "Oh, you have no idea how quickly I can make them fall."  The man licked his lips and Serena tightened her grip on the knife bringing the mans eyes to her hand.

            "Do you want to kill me?"

            "Yes."

            "Now you didn't even give it some thought."

            "I didn't have to."

            "Can I come in?"

            "No I'll come out."  Serena shut the door behind her and was quickly pressed against the wall.

            "You trust people to fast."

            "I don't trust anybody that's why I have the knife."

The man pushed the knife gently into her back, "Who has the knife?  I could kill you now but I won't because I want you to trust me."

            "You're not off to a good start."  The man handed the knife back to Serena.

            "I have a message from a friend.  Be at the bar tomorrow night, one hour after dusk."

            "Tell your friend he can't tell me what to do."

The man laughed, "You'll be there, you can't resist the adventure.  The possibility for blood, your need is too great.  Oh and wear something nice."

            Serena opens her door, "We'll see if I come or not."  She turns around to get his reaction, but there is nobody there.  "Great I have a date with a vampire but no matter what, I'm not going!"
