Chapter 1 New Beginning
Selene looked around the darking city through the sheet of rain; she had yet to find her target and was starting to get in a bad mood. She decided that she had had enough for tonight. She stood up from her perch on the church swung one leg out in front of the other and jumped from atop the building. She made a swift landing her right leg taking the impact from the jump and landing on her left knee. She quickly disappeared into the crowd heading back towards her car a few blocks away.
It had been almost 1 ½ years since the war between the Lycan's and Vampires. Selene and Michael had gone there separate ways after Victor's death. She didn't think he was safe with her and the Lycan's needed a new alpha to lead their group, with Michael being a hybrid he was the obvious choice. She missed him from time to time but knew that in the end he would end up being killed.
Selene walked back to her black mustang that was parked almost 4 blocks from where she had been. She pulled out her keys and unlocked the door grateful to be out of the rain. She started it up and drove towards the edge of the city where her small two-bedroom house was at. She didn't like living in apartments people could figure out who and what she was and she didn't need them to know.
She pulled up to the house and got out locking the doors to her car and walking up to the front door, she pulled out the key and un-locked the door stepping into the quiet foyer. She walked down the hallway of the two-story home and went into the dark kitchen. She took off her black trench coat and hung it over the back of one of the dining room chairs and went to the fridge. She opened it up and took out a bottle of thick red liquid. It was blood.
When she had left the coven after the war and finding out that they had betrayed her in the first place she had taken one of the many keys to the warehouses where the generic blood was kept, they owned there own share in the company and that how they got it without suspicion. They couldn't just go around and suck cows dry because they needed blood it would attract un-needed attention. She poured some into a glass and sat down at the table. She hadn't found her target, some Lycan's had been after him and she needed to find out why they needed him and the sooner the better. Memories flashed back to when Lycan's had been tracking Michael. They couldn't be up to there old tricks again could they?
"Man what a night." Selene muttered to herself since there wasn't anyone to talk to anyways.
She finished off the rest of her drink, put the empty glass in the sink and walked up the to her bedroom closing the door behind her.
The sun shone through the small crack in the dark blue drapes. It was around 8:00 am the next morning. Selene rolled over in bed and looked at the digital clock on her nightstand letting out a moan. She got out of bed and shuffled off in to the bathroom across the hall. She came out of the bathroom dressed in a pair of dark blue denim jeans that had a few rips and tears in them and a black long sleeve shirt.
"Now where the hell did I put my brush at?" She cursed to herself.
As she walked back into her bedroom she found it sitting on her dresser. She put on a pair of socks and then her black combat boots. She brushed out her long dark chestnut hair and then pulled it back into a ponytail. She had let it grow out since the war it helped in a way to change her appearance to keep the rest of the death dealers off her backs. She put her Beretta's in the holster she wore on her hips and checked to make sure her dagger was still in its place in her boot.
"Time to go and track down that guy, once again." she huffed as she walked into the kitchen to receive her trench coat. Once again memories of Michael flashed in front of her eyes, maybe she missed him more then she thought. She slipped the rest of the way into her jacket and headed to the front door when a resounding knock came from the backdoor. Selene swung around when she heard someone knocking at the backdoor.
"Now who the hell could that be?" she asked herself as she turned around and headed to the back of the house.
