Title: Beautiful Monster

Author: Snooglez

Rating: Strong R for violence, language, and sexual content.

Disclaimer: I don't own these characters.

Pairing: A/M and eventually S/J.

Plot: Alex Kelly is a torn vampire who is struggling to fight her addiction to human blood. In the midst of this she meets a girl named Marissa who changes the paths of their very lives.

AN: I'm not a fan of the Twilight series. I've never read the books and my friends have tried to coax me into watching the display of rather horrible acting of the movies. I don't hate it, but I don't really like it either. I just thought it would be a fun fic to write making Alex was a vampire.

Chapter 1: Crave

The jukebox continued to fill the insides of the ever gritty "Tavern" with classic 80's rock. A handful of regulars littered the bar and among them a lone blonde had a very simple agenda.

She rarely hunted and nearly always waited. Few would definitely be so lucky. There was always someone who would spot her, drawing to her deadly aura like a moth to a flame. She wished they wouldn't, but they would always come. It was too easy.

So she sat… and waited.

Elbows on the bar her fingers clasped the smooth glass that oh so lovingly hugged her poison of choice. She brought the glass to her lips, sipping it. The auburn liquid enveloped her tongue before it traveled the path down her throat to warm her insides.

She placed it back down, the familiar clink of glass against wood reminding her of the grave task at hand.

"I shouldn't be doing this. Not again." She chided herself.

Before her lips and the glass could rendezvous she felt a pair of inviting arms slide around her neck, the weight of the person balanced onto Alex's own.

The stranger tilted their head against the blonde's, lips pressing against her ear. She hadn't the slightest idea who this person was, the non threatening gesture however failed to alarm her.

This type of attention was familiar and expected. Her mind instantly recessed into the blur of women that had taken her back to their place, completely oblivious who or even what they had allowed to cross the thresh hold into their home.

She knew what leading this person on meant, how it would play out, and the satisfaction she would be granted until it came time again… full circle. Never leaving without what she damned herself for coming here for she held still listening to the husky voice that melted against the sensitive nerves of her ear.

"What would it take for me to get you in my bed?"

A simple question with so many answers Alex swiveled her body around in the revolving bar stool, her piercing blue eyes scanning over the beautiful raven haired girl. Numerous tattoos embellished her pale complexion, her hair a perfect blend of blonde and black. Alex inwardly noted the fair amount of lust swirling around her emerald irises.

"For you it won't take very much at all." Alex replied boldly, a sexy smirk joining her lips. She stood up from her seat drawing closer to the girl's similar frame. "My name is Alex, by the way…" Her fingers shied away the dual colored strands from her ear and she leaned down mimicking the action that was just done to her.

"You know, in case you need a name to scream out later." Of course this double entendre went unnoticed. Her fingers teased against the flat plains of the girl's midriff.

The smaller girl shuddered in anticipation, her brain's synapses firing off millions of neurons configuring pictures of the events she imagined that would follow this encounter.

She looked up into Alex's lidded eyes. "I'm Jordan. Let's get the fuck out of here." Taking her hand she led them to the exit of the bar.

…

Alex found her back pinned against the chipped white paint of the wooden door to Jordan's apartment. Chest heaved against chest as their lungs struggled to survive the treatment of being suffocated, lips consuming each other in bruising kisses.

Jordan's fingers clumsily searched her pocket for the keys, her other hand busily stroking the taut flesh concealed under Alex's top. The metallic jingle of keys echoed throughout the small spaced hallway drowning the harsh sounds of their moans and muffled sighs. Keys sliding into the lock, the door opened sending them both stumbling into the darkened confines of the apartment.

It slammed behind them instantly enveloping them in blanket of black. Alex's pupils dilated, her eyes adjusting to the dark with ease keeping focus on Jordan's silhouette. The girl had hastily wriggled out of her shirt now clad in merely her black laced bra and jeans. Before she had time to reach for the fly of her form fitting denim, she felt the blonde's body pressing against her from behind.

"Come here." Alex murmured into Jordan's shadow-sunshine kissed locks. Her grip was firm around her waist leaving zero space between them. She pulled the tendrils of hair back, exposing her neck to the cool air of the apartment.

Lips connected with the milky white skin delivering gentle kisses. Jordan's lips granted a moan to escape as her body writhed in Alex's seductive hold.

And there it was…. that innate tug in her loins stopping her in her tracks. The monster within her pulled at the strings of her very being. She became a simple puppet under its control. Her body was rapidly submerged into a hypersensitive state; pupils dilating further so much that the blue of her irises were merely a sliver.

Her fangs stretched in length, tips of the incisors poking into her bottom lip. The door to her conscious crept to a close becoming more intoxicated from the rich scent of blood that seeped from Jordan's pores.

"I can't hold back any longer." As if a rock was thrown against the walls of her vast mind, the thought echoed through her skull seeming to rip the last shred of humanity from her being. Blind from primal need her tongue spread a wet path from the base of Jordan's flawless neck to the area behind the darker haired girl's ear. She swore she could taste the precious fluid right through the skin.

Alex brought her lips to her neck for the last time, sinking two sharp pricks to pierce the plush skin of the smaller girl's jugular vein. Pain instantly emanated from the wounds, screaming throughout Jordan's body. She cried out in a panic, tears springing into her eyes from the searing pain.

A callous palm fastened over her betraying lips, further silencing her piteous sniveling. Teeth tore deeper into flesh snapping tendons and punctured the throbbing vein sending the viscous liquid flowing into her mouth. She drank greedily, numb to the feeling of her victim struggling in her grip.

Jordan was her moth for the night, and now she was burning.

She reached up to the hand on her face, fingers trying to pry them free from her mouth. She failed miserably with a considerable amount of energy already diminished from her body. Alex had the other arm twisted behind her, cruelly pinning her wrist against her lower back.

Drowning in hopelessness the tears destroyed her vision, streaming down her face. She could feel herself slip from consciousness as Alex continued to suck her empty.

The squirming and muffled screams slowed as Jordan's blood level plunged below critical. Her legs eventually gave way of her stance only becoming a limp lifeless body in her captor's arms.

Sated, Alex licked the wounds clean and gently placed the girl onto her couch. She stood back, her eyes drinking in the image of death she had caused. Remorse flickered across her features before she backed towards the door and exited.

"Fuck." She cursed herself.

Another had fallen victim to her bloodlust. Jordan was the second girl this week to endure her carelessness. It had been her will that had crumbled lately pushing her back into old habits hard and fast.

….

A yawn rose from Jodie's lips as a solemn reminder of the time. She stretched her cramped muscles on her couch idly flipping through the monotonous infomercials posted on late night TV. She heard the door open and turned to watch her best friend appear from the shadows of the kitchen.

"Where were you? It's late." She questioned sitting up from relaxed position.

Alex closed the door and faced her friend. She didn't have the strength to tell her that she had relapsed for the second time in merely a couple days. They had moved to Orange County to start a new life, to live among humans peaceful unison. She couldn't afford to be a screw up and ruin both their lives.

"I was down at the bar having some drinks." Alex replied casually making a beeline for her bedroom.

"Don't lie to me Alex." Jodie breathed directing her pleading eyes towards Alex. "The bar closed two hours ago, and its three blocks away from our house."

She knew very well what Alex had been up to, but she wanted to hear it for herself.

The blonde's guilt froze her in mid stride. "You know what happened… and I'm sorry." She pushed the last part out, her eyes shying away from Jodie's.

Jodie sighed in disappointment. "It's fine and everything, but I really want us to have a normal life here. We just finally got our lives on track and I want to keep it that way. The whole point is to blend in. Not stick out." She lightly scolded.

Alex took a seat next to her reveling in the plush comfort the couch offered. "I know."

Jodie continued. "Plus our first day of school is tomorrow. We're going to be surrounded by people and you have to keep your bloodlust under control."

It was easy for Jodie. She was a half breed completely free of the powerful craving that chained itself to Alex.

"I can't promise anything Jodie, but I'll try." She offered.

Jodie smiled warmly. "That's all I need to know. " She stood up, blanket in hand and delivered a chaste kiss to Alex's forehead. "I'm heading off to bed. Be up by 7am."

"Good night." Alex tossed over her shoulder, hearing Jodie enter her bedroom.

Too lazy to retreat to her own room, she extended her body across the length of the couch. Her fingers wriggled her phone from her pocket and she punched the numbers onto the keypad to set her alarm. She snuggled herself into the couch and closed her eyes, the silence of the room lulling her to sleep.

It would definitely be an interesting day for her tomorrow.
