You all are so kind with your words, and it makes my heart sing with love. It has taken me such a long time to gain the courage needed for me to post my works. I held a fear for so long that people would not like what ideas came from my mind, and to hear such praise from you all fills me with so much joy. I cannot thank you enough for your ongoing support. Thank you so much!

Chapter 9:
What a wonder it is to be hidden, to hide away and to never know the negativity of the world. Well, one could hope to run away and remain hidden, but Miranda had no such luck with this radical idea. Matters only worsened upon befriending Pamela at which point Miranda knew she held qualities that the humans around her did not, hence why she wished so greatly to be hidden. However, Pam gave her strength and courage in her own individuality, though Pam knew not the extent of such differences to her "human" friend. It was only an accident that through Pam, Miranda found Eric who then led her here to this Godric, who shockingly knew more about her defects than she could care to share.
That's right, defects. She viewed them as abnormalities in her humanity, and tried to keep them hidden from all but her own eyes. To be flawed so greatly and still have to function like every other person is quite the difficult task, this she knew true. However, hearing her suspicions confirmed took the air out of her lungs.
Miranda stood silent for a few moments in order to still her racing thoughts. "Elven," her mind taunted her with the word given freely by the eldest vampire. The questions that she has had scrambled around in thoughts her whole life were answered by that one word. Who knew that one word uttered offhandedly could change the entire course of her life. Was she ready for this? To gain this knowledge would forever endow her to life of misery. Knowledge is power and she doesn't want power. Miranda knew that Godric could help her figure herself out even more. She also knew the dangers of pursuing such knowledge, and this is what she was unsure of. To endanger her life is one thing but to endanger everyone involved in her life is another thing; one that she would not willingly stand for.
Ever.
"Godric, I don't want to know. I'm not ready."
Though his face remained impassive, his aura shifted to that of disappointment, "As you wish little one."
"Sir, Godric, I appreciate your knowledge, but I do not wish to know about this oddity of mine. One day I will, and when that day comes I would very much request your company. If that is even a thing with vampires; I would ask of you to give me time to process this all."
"Until next time."
Godric seemingly said nothing to Eric and then vamp'd away, leaving her alone with Eric in this house.
"Miranda, come let us sit," Eric motioned to the couch.
"Just like that he is gone? No more maker for today?" Miranda smirked at the expressionless Viking.
"Other things to attend to."
"Well, alright then." Miranda awkwardly mumbled out sensing a very serious topic coming on.
"This discussion is not over, you know this, correct?"
"Yes, Eric."
"Good. Then know this too. You will take my blood."
She paused.
Why would he want that? She didn't know much about vampires and by the look on her face that was evidently clear.
"My child has not spoken to you about our blood, I assume."
Not trusting her voice, Miranda nodded her head up and down looking nervously at the vampire before her.
"You shall be informed on a later date, thoroughly. You have my word. Time is of the essence, so we must forgo the details and complete this immediately."
"I'm not sure, Eric."
"I'm sorry you feel that way, my pet. Unfortunately there is no choice in this matter."
Panic seized her mind. She froze, eyes wide with shock at the announcement. Her eyes darted around to look for an escape. Sensing this, Eric pulled her to his lap with her legs straddling him, one on each side. "Sh, my little pet do not fear," he cooed into her ear," it will be fine. I swear it."
Eyes still wide with anxiety, she nodded her head allowing her trust in Pam to envelope her maker in the same light. "Alright."
"Splendid," he smirked taking a small envelope opening to his neck slicing into it deeply. Crimson liquid gushed out, and it made Miranda's stomach flip.
"Drink from me," was heard as Eric guided her lips to the wound, not realizing it was her voice that muttered them under her breath. Not until she felt the explosion of light upon the breakage of his fangs through her skin.
"My light," she unwillingly moaned against his neck before the world went dark.
My fellow humans what a joy and wonder it is to be back. Regrettably I have been away from my writings for a few months. I hope you all can forgive me for this tardiness. Life has not been kind, but that is okay. It gives life some movement. For without the lows how can you discover the joy of your highs.
There is sorrow that weeps for my readers from my very core. I have been unable to proof read or edit this in any way, so please forgive me for the many errors. One day they shall be corrected.
I support Bernie Sanders. If you support him, help me achieve my goal to get his message to as many as possible. We will get him into office. He is needed desperately by our species. It is a phenomenal thing to see a man care more about our species and about being human beings and saving our home planet than any other in the political world. Bernie is bringing out humanity back, and that is why I support him.
I love and respect you all, and look forward to one day seeing and reading your creations on this site. Live life with a smile and much optimism! You are worth it 3
Kind Regards,
D.E.F
