E.P.O.V

What would you do if you woke up and found a beautiful, strange man standing at the foot of your bed? Just standing, not smiling, not moving at all, just standing there, staring at you. What would you do if that same man told you, he was different, he was special? What would you do if he told you he was a vampire? My name is Ebony Mystic and that is exactly what happened to me.

I had just recently celebrated my 21st birthday. Life was pleasant, I had a wonderful family, my mother came to visit us often, my dear husband was as loving and kind as the day I met him and our 3 children, Madeline 5, Owen 3 and Lachlan 1, were all growing up so fast. As I could see life couldn't get any better.

But all of that was about to change. The night it all began was my little girls birthday, Saturday the 21st of October 1872. My dear friend Monique and her brother were coming to visit. I had not seen Monique in so very long, She was one of my closest friends and we had been friends for longer then i could remember. Her older brother was remote and rarely spoke to anyone after the death of their mother, so I was never really introduced to him. I glanced over my shoulder to look at the grand father clock across the hall, 12:30, only another half an hour and they would be here. I walked over to the window and sat waiting, only a few more minutes and ill see you Monique.

I started running, screaming out to her, screaming a silent scream. She just looked at me with a look of confusion on her face, I wasn't going to make it to her in time, the wolf behind her was to fast.

"Monique! Behind you watch out please look behind you!" i screamed

But I was to late the wolf had reached and all I could hear wear wails of pain

I woke up, breathing heavily on my icy cold window, I looked outside and saw nothing, it was pitch black.

Oh gosh how long had i been asleep for. I got up and turned to llok at the clock again but was shocked when I turned right into a solid body.

Taking a step back a looked up into the most beautiful pair of hazle green eyes I had ever seen.

" Oh dear, I'm terribly sorry sir." I said quickly

" No, no it was my fault for sneaking up on you." the beautiful stranger replied.

I stood there looking up at him for a moment, then remember what i was doing.

"I'm sure Lucinder will bring you some tea, but you must excuse me for the moment, I am extremly late to meet my dear friend" I looked over his shoulder at the clock.

"Oh my gosh its nearly 8 o'clock, I'm so late" I called back to him over my shoulder as I hurried over to the guest room.

But as I got to the door i was surprised to hear the most glorious sound of laugher. I turned around to see my beautiful best friend standing not two feet from my glorious visitor doubled over in a laughing fit.

And then it clicked.

"MONIQUE!!"
