Evangeline's Letters

This is a series of 15 letters written by Evangeline McDowell herself to her family after she became a vampire. I just hope she doesn't find out that I posted them here lest she comes after me.

Dear Mommy and Daddy,
It's Evangeline. How is everyone doing at the castle? I hope they're alright. I'm sorry for running away from home, but I wanted to let you know that I'm alright and doing well. I'm also sorry that I can't come home, not because I don't want to, but because I think something is wrong with me. I think it might be some kind of disease and I don't want you and the rest of the castle to catch it.
I can take care of myself fine, it is actually a really great learning experience for me. At least I might learn to be independent when I grow up! I even still keep up my studies! There aren't many books here which are very useful for studying but that does not matter. It is different out here than the castle, and yes I do miss the warmth of my bed back home and especially being hugged by you. I miss it when Daddy gave me pets on the head. I miss the reassuring feeling that everything will be alright. Even now, as I write this letter, I can feel the tears waiting to burst forth from my eyes.
For some reason it seems that I haven't gotten any taller in two years! I eat well enough and I haven't been sick very much either. That in itself is a little strange. It also hurts my skin when I try to walk outside during the day. I also don't seem to feel sleepy at night anymore. It was the eleventh hour and yet I felt wide a wake in bed. I really hope this isn't serious.
Something happened to me that morning on my tenth birthday, I'm going to try and find out what happened. Does anyone know anything about what happened that night? I would appreciate it if you reply sometime soon. My current location is written on a separate piece of parchment enclosed in this scroll. However, I would ask that you not search for me. Please do not ask why. I hope to hear from you soon!
