…
"Hello Sarah." She turned sharply to see him looking at her; she had been on her way to her hotel when he stopped her. "Have you thought of my warning?" She didn't say anything, but she did send a low hiss to him. He chuckled and sauntered towards her. "Don't look so hostile my dear; I'm just here to give you another option…"
She backed away as he neared, her eyes narrowed. "What do you want from me?"
"You."
"What?"
"I know you and the spellmaster are planning something against me; that wouldn't be wise."
"Are you threatening me?!"
"Of course not. Simply a friendly… warning. I had no reason to attack the boy band and the seer until you came; you brought the supernatural out here. I was quite peaceful until you and the little magician showed up."
"Why us?"
"Actually it's just you. Haven't you noticed Sarah? Destruction follows you everywhere. And now it's followed you here. When I said you were well-known, I didn't mean solely for the fact that you don't drink from humans." She shivered at the tone in his voice and hurried away. "Not so fast," he said, appearing in front of her. She stumbled and gaped at him. "I learned from the best Sarah. I can tell you're attracted to me. I can feel the flush you feel when you see me. So, I have a proposition for you. One that benefits everybody."
"…What?"
"I won't lay a hand on them, if you do something for me."
"Why me?" He just gave her a diabolical smile and eyed her.
"Sarah… Stay here with me, as my wife, and your friends and the boy band can live their life as they always have."
"What?! Are you insane?" He shook his head and shot her a grin, his fangs showing.
"Take it or leave it. I give you until sunset. Otherwise, I'm eating well tonight, and you can not stop me. Until then my love," he said, darting away. She looked around for him, but he was gone.
But his words lingered.
"Destruction follows you everywhere."

Logan was out reading by the pool when he felt someone sit by him. Glancing up, he saw Camille. She gave him a sad smile, which he returned as he closed his book; he knew this conversation had to come sooner or later.
"So… you and him seem really happy," she sighed, wrapping her arms around her legs. He nodded and then shrugged.
"Yeah, I guess. Sometimes it's like that, then others it's like I have this massive headache I can't get rid of," he chuckled weakly, which she copied.
"I bet… Logan-"
"I'm sorry Camille." She looked at him, even though he wouldn't meet her eyes. "This thing with Kendall… I didn't expect it to happen. I never once thought-"
"I know." Now he looked at her. "I think on some level, I always knew you and him had something special. More special than we could ever have. And then he told me how he felt about you, and that he was going to try to get you to admit your feelings for him. He then asked me, if you felt the same, would I give you up so he could be with you… And I went crazy on him. I slapped him so hard my hand went numb. But then… I told him yes. Because I've seen the way you two look at each other. If you didn't love him then you were out of your mind." Logan gaped at her and she laughed. "I love you Logan. I want you to be happy." She leaned over and kissed his cheek. "Even if it's not with me."
…
Logan was somber as he drove Ethan around town. Ethan gave him a questioning look, which he caught. Letting out a dejected sigh, he pulled into a parking lot.
"You okay Loges?"
"Ethan… do you ever regret what you and Benny started? Do you regret… liking him?"
"No, not really… But I don't have an image to uphold either," Ethan stated, making Logan look at him, eyebrows raised.
"It's creepy how well you know me," he muttered, making Ethan chuckle.
"Just observant. Is that what you're worried about?"
"Kinda… I just know a ton of teenage girls listen to our music… what if Kendall and I being… like that makes us lose business? Gustavo and Griffin would blow a gasket."
"Loges. You're stressing over nothing. Let's say you and Kendall being together did ruin the band. So what? You guys will still be loaded with money, and you can go back to be the doctor you always wanted to be."
Logan mulled over this and then smiled at Ethan.
"You're right."
"Of course I am. Now come on, if we don't hurry we'll miss the movie."
Logan laughed and started the car, driving off.
He had forgotten how nice it felt to just hang out with his cousin and not have the world crash around them.
It was peaceful.
…
Sarah met Joshua in the hotel lobby, where he was elegantly dressed, a rose in his hand.
"I thought we could go out, while we discussed my proposition." She grimaced but took the rose he held out to her. She hated to admit it, but he was attractive, and a part of her really did want to be with him; but he was bad, just like Jesse…
That's when it hit her.
"Earlier… you said you learned from the best, and had heard of me and my friends…"
"Hehe, caught on did you?"
"He made you, didn't he?"
"No, he killed the man who changed me, and then took me on as his own."
"Why?"
"Because he believed I would be powerful. The same reason he changed you. I don't like it. I liked my life."
"That makes two of us."
"But we're damned to this life." She looked at him and realized they were walking toward the Palm Woods. "I want to change our deal. You stay with me, they live. But I want you to stay, and get to know me, and I want to get to know you." Sarah nodded and took a deep breath.
"I'd like that."
…
I know this is like a mainly Sarah chapter, so it's really just kind of a filler. But the next one will be better… I hope.
Thanks for reading it!
See you next time.
