I awoke to the loud crash. Throwing the covers from my body and ripping back the lace curtains to see the boys coming down from their sleeping area to investigate the noise. My eyes locked on David for any trace of emotion from the dream. His facal-features remained stone-like.
I scooted to the edge of the bed and to the top of the steps leading down to the main area of the cave.
A wolf. Circling the cave, foaming at the mouth and snarling. The eyes,… the eyes were so recognizable,… they were our eyes. Our yellow eyes. It saw me,… teeth bared. It charged at me full force and before I could dodge the wolf's sprint turned into a flying charge and I was pinned to the ground with a ringed fist connecting with my face. When I looked up to see my attacker my body nearly went into shock.
"Flo?" I questioned before she punched me again.
"You bit me!" she cried. "You dumb bitch! You actually bit me!"
I threw her off of me, getting to my feet and brushed myself off. A mixture of anger and relief filling my chest. "Well you coaxed me!" I shot back rather childishly, bewildered that she was alive. The boys watched in amusement.
"I was trying to coax you away from those comic book rugrats who were about ready to call the loony ben on you!" she snapped fist clinched.
"Wait so you believed me?" I questioned, only to have David interfere. "Are you saying that someone saw Mia turn?" he came close to me almost protectively, he now stood with our bodies inches away and yet his expression was still unmarked by emotion.
"Yes! And yes Mia I believed you; my kind has lived in Santa Carla my whole life."
This struck me. "Your kind?" I asked stepping away from David. "What do you mean?"
"Werewolves!"
Something inside of me clicked, or rather snapped. "That's not possible."
Flora growled. "Why the hell do you think I worked in a bar, at night, with no windows! And was the last to leave! Why do you think Killer and I are so compatible? We're mates!"
I put my hands behind my head as if to keep it from exploding as we continued talking.
"Now thanks to you I cant even see my mate let alone marry him cause now I'm a vampire too! A full vampire!"
"You made you're first kill?" David asked.
"Yes! I killed the guy Mia bought blood from to turn Widow Johnson into a full." This allowed me the knowledge that Flora had been stalking me.
David wheeled around to face me, blue eyes ablaze. "You did what?!" he growled through gritted teeth.
I ran a hand through my hair and turned away with a sigh. "I asked a homeless man at the mall to prick his finger and provide me with blood to have revenge on Widow Johnson for taking my life. I didn't go through with it,… I couldn't go through with it."
David ran a gloved hand down his face. "So two humans saw you turn, and you tried to turn one of the most prominent of Max's accomplishes into a full? MIA ARE YOU TRYING TO PUT US ALL IN DANGER?" he shouted waving a hand towards the boys.
I was wordless, I couldn't bear to look at him. He continued and this time his words cut me. "Mia, I trusted you-"
I couldn't let him finish. "You want to talk about trust David? What about the trust I put in you?" I faced him now. My eyes met his. "Letting you drive me home, telling you things I haven't dare told anyone else. Those stupid conversations! And then you leave me begging for answers from you when I need them most! I get it now! Yes I made two really big mistakes and I'm sorry! But in case you haven't noticed being a vampire didn't really come with an instruction manual! But I'm tired of fighting…" I paused with a shaky breath, turning towards the other boys. "I know what I am now,… I except it. And I will do everything in my power to make up for my mistakes." Then turning to Flora. "I am so sorry for what I have done to you, and I will find away, a safe way, to undo it somehow. But we have to stick together,… all of us."
All was silent. I turned my back to walk away only to have a hand fall on my shoulder. I turned to see that Dwayne stood behind me, followed by Marco and Paul, they smirked to let me know I had their support.
Flora still had a hint of anger in her eyes, but then sighed. "I'm going to hold you to your word Mia Pia." Then joining the group. Only leaving David and I in an intense stare, breathing heavily.
He then pointed a gloved finger at me.
"You have one more chance little girl."
And with that he let his hand drop and returned to his sleeping area of the cave.
