Hi, I'm Evelina Sakamaki. Although most vampires grow slowly, I grew at a human growth rate. So I really am 16 years old. light grey hair, and pink eyes. Nine uncles, no mother, no siblings, is a troublesome life. At least Uncle Kanato sleeps in an indoor playground. Which I tend to spend my time, after studying for four hours straight. I can't ask my father about mother, because he'll be a mixed emotion of angry, misrable, and empty. My uncles always just change the subject. It seems to hurt them as well. One day, I walked through the garden, when my grandfather appeared. "Hello Evelina," he greeted me. "Hello grandfather," I greeted back. "Beautiful day isn't it?" he started a conversation I knew would take forever to get to his point. Not in the mood, I said, "Get to the point." "Yes, of course. Two friends of mine would be delighted to have you for dinner tonight. They were close to your mother. They both have sons of their own who would love to meet you. I'll escort you so your father doesn't object," he said. "Fine, but only if they like dogs," I agreed. "They love dogs," he said.
At the Friends' House
"Welcome. I'm Shin, and this is Carla. Our sons are in the dining hall. Come with us," one said. I did as he said. Only two boys my age were waiting. "Save some for the gal," one looking similar to Shin said to the one looking similar to Carla. "Fine Max," the Carla look alike growled. "Carlos, play nice," Shin said. "Yes Uncle Shin," the said boy replied. Max walked to me, and held out his hand. I took it and he shook our hands. "Nice to meet you. I'm Max," he introduced himself to me. "Evelina," I said, and he let go of my hand. Carlos came to me, and took my hand as well. "Carlos. Nice name Evelina," he commented. "Thank you," I replied. "Good, you're getting along. Now let the girl eat," Shin said. "Actually Shin, I ate before I arrived because I have a phobia of eating with unfamiliar people. But thank you anyway," I explained. "No worries, I'm sure Carlos is extra hungry tonight," Max joked. "I am extra hungry because I got big muscles to feed," Carlos bragged, and sat down to eat. After the meal, the four split up, but Max took me with him. "Question Evelina: Do you like dogs?" he asked. "No. I live for dogs," I replied making him smirk. "And if I told you that I was part wolf?" he pressed. "I'd first laugh then call you insane," I gave him a none serious answer. "Be serious Evelina," he said. "Fine... I'd ask you to prove it," I replied more seriously. "I'm part wolf no joke," he said. "Prove it," I held my ground. He turned into a wolf suddenly, which made me jump back. "M-max! Is it only you or is it the others as well?" I asked, petting his head calmly. He barked three times, signalling all three as first bloods as well. "Awesome," I said. He pounced on me, and started licking my face. "Max! Stop that!" I giggled. He got off of me, and turned back when Shin appeared suddenly. I stood up, and brushed the dust from my denim skirt. "Max, there really was no need for her to know our secret," Shin scolded. "She loves dogs," Max barked. "Karlheinz will be back in a few, please refrain from wolfing around," Shin informed us and walked off. "Funkiller," I muttered. Carlos walked up to us. "My turn with Evelina," he snarled, grabbing my wrist and pulling me away from Max. He let go once we were out of eyeline of Max. "You love dogs huh? What about a mutt like myself?" he asked harshly. "Mutts are still dogs Carlos, just born with different bloodlines. As myself," I replied. "You? What two bloodlines do you come from?" he asked curiously. "Pureblood vampire and human. And you?" I wondered. "First blood vampire/wolf, and second blood vampire/husky," he replied after a few minutes of silence. "Huskies are my favorite dogs Carlos," I admitted. Suddenly, he took my cheeks into his big hands, and kissed me roughly on the lips. Until I backed away a few seconds later. "What was that for Carlos?" I asked. "I don't know what I was doing that for, you just seemed so tempting," he answered. "Tempting? Then you're going to take my heart and leave me on red Carlos, just like every boy who calls me tempting," I said. "I didn't mean anything by it-" "Then why'd you say it?" I interrupted him. Carla suddenly appeared. "Quit fighting you two. Karlheinz is here for you Evelina, at the front door. I hope you enjoyed your visit, since we'd be happy to have you in the future," the adult male said. I walked alone to the front door, but was stopped by Max. "Please come back," he begged. "Did you enjoy your time?" my grandfather asked when I reached him. "Mostly," I shrugged.
Back at Home
"How were they to you?" Father asked. "Nice to me, except Carlos was a little grumpy," I replied. "Seems reasonable enough. He has had tough practice lately," he said. "What do you mean by 'practice?'" I asked him. "He has rugby practice. It's a very violent game," father explained. In truth, Carlos could hold his own. But it still bothered me to think about him or Max getting hurt. So I changed the subject. "Father, there's a new game I would like to try, but it involves NerveGear. It's called Gun Gale Online," I said. "Is your homework done?" he asked, and I nodded. "Then fine, but don't let your uncles know of it," he agreed.
