I'm sorry for the wait. I'm really bad about that. and I'm sorry if this seems rushed. I wrote it in thirty minutes tops. I'm making up the plot as I go.

Jagger and the guy were alone, well, I was there too, but unnoticed around the corner. The guy's back was pressed against the wall and eyes filled with fear.

I watched as Jagger's fangs ripped into his throat. If I tried to stop him I had no idea what would happen to me. I backed up towards the door and froze when I knocked over a box of supplies. Then I ran for my life. He didn't follow.

Curiosity killed the cat., satisfaction brought her back . . . right?

Wrong.

I found the chauffeur who was holding sign with the name Maxwell.

I climbed in the car after his questioning if I was okay. Jumping when the car door swung open, I let loose a little shriek.

"You okay?" Jagger asked as he kissed my throat.

"I'm fine." I pulled away slightly.

His beautiful mismatched eyes scanned my face.

"Raven . . ."

"I'm just tired. Nothing to worry about."

I couldn't just tell him that I was being so weird because I was scared of him.

Could I?

Being scared of him didn't mean that I didn't love him.

I leaned my head on his shoulder.

"I'm sorry. I don't mean to be such a frigid bitch."

?POV

I watched as she climbed into the limousine with Jagger Maxwell. Personally, I think the girl could do better; she could do better than a vampire. Anyone could.

Raven Madison had wanted to be a vampire since the first time she watched Dracula. She wanted it so bad she ditched a vampire who refused to turn her for one that she thought would. Her whole life had been dedicated to vampires. Dressing like them, sometimes acting like them, and dating them.

She was raised loving vampires and I was raised to kill them.

It was always for the money. I didn't like killing. It was only a job.

When they propositioned me I refused.

"She's only a girl," I said. "She's too young and she's human."

They said she was going to die either way. Whoever did it could get paid six-hundred-and-fifty-thousand dollars or I could do it and get the money, plus some. We needed the money, and my own pride wouldn't let me go to my rich husband.

"Mommy, can we get the vampire? Please!"

It sickened me that I was such a bad mother. A vampire hunter that brings her child along.

"Not yet, Sirius. We have to wait for your Daddy." I smiled at the three year old next to me.

"Mommy, we aren't normal."

"No, we aren't. Most people don't—"

"Other kid's parents are married and they live together and they love each other."

My heart twisted. He wanted a family and so did he father, but Scorpius scared me more than anything. He was the symbol of my past mistakes. His son was the one thing I love.

"How's my boy doing?" Scorpius said jolting me out of my thoughts.

"Daddy!"

"How about you go get in the car while I talk to your Mom?"

I crouched down and hugged my son.

"I'll see you soon, Mommy!" he said before running to the black Alfa Romeo 4C. God, I hoped I would see him again. The way Maxwell had killed that man for insulting Raven . . . I would hate to see what I would look like if he found out I was sent to kill her.

"Hello, Amelia."

"Hello, Scorpius."

After he glanced to see if our son was in his car he turned back to me. "I'm glad I called when I did. Otherwise you would have taken him with you."

"I was going to call you anyway."

"Why is that?"

"I think I need your help with this one"

"Why take the job if you can't handle it?"

"Because I'm desperate, Dammit! I need the money to raise our, son!"

Confusion filled his face. "What happened to your money?"

"Paying to have someone steal blood for your child isn't cheap!"

His tough demeanor was gone. Scorpius stepped close to me. I saw the light glint off of his blonde hair. His hand ran down my cheek. "Why not ask me for money? I have plenty."

"You terrify me. You nearly killed me."

"And yet you still had a baby with me."

"I loved you then. Now, back to the previous subject . . ."

"Why do you need my help?"

"Because it isn't just a vampire this time."

"What? A shifter, werewolf?"

"A teenage girl in love with a vampire."
