Once the plane landed in Seattle I got up from my seat when we allowed and grabbed my stuff I had brought with me on the plane.

Me and the older gentleman that I had learned was named George had said our goodbyes to each other. I walked through the airport to get my bags from baggage claim and was greeted by a rough looking man who very obviously did not take care of himself very well. He had a slight beer belly. He was wearing a blue ripped flannel that looked like it seriously needed to be washed, along with dirty blue jeans and a grey shirt underneath the flannel. I approached him and it turned out that was the one and only Charlie, my father.

That was 3 years ago. It's now been a whole 3 years since my life fell apart. Since my mother died, since me and Phil had parted ways. Since I had the great memories of my childhood.

Now I live in a house with several other girls and Charlie. He treated us like trash. Complete trash. None of us had the luxury of leaving the house or attending school. Well that is until this year. Most of us were juniors, some younger. But I was the oldest. I had been here the longest and knew how it worked the best. I was also the one who had it the worst out of everybody here. Sure I may be a vampire, well half vampire. But I couldn't use any of my abilities to my advantage except for ones that couldn't give me away. I couldn't risk anyone finding out about me or my mother who was also half vampire.

I heard Charlie come through the front door. Great. He came up behind me and looked at what I was doing while he slid his hand up and down my back. Letting me know that he'd be with me tonight. I placed his dinner out on the table, I made him steak and fries, Which was one of his favorites. "Here you go sir." I said with an innocent obedient voice, because that's how he asked us to sound. "There are no customers tonight, for any of the girls. When you go up tell them that." He said, taking a huge messy disgusting bite of his meal. I nodded my head and said "Yes sir". I continued up the stairs and proceeded to tell all the girls.

There were four of us. Angela, who had long black hair, glasses and a smaller frame. She was a junior along with me, and my father had succeeded in adopting her. Lily, who was only 13 in 8th grade with short blonde hair and was pretty tall for her age and had brightest most beautiful blue eyes. My heart broke for her, she reminded me so much of me, so helpless, scared and vulnerable. I'm just glad Charlie didn't go as hard on her as he did the rest of us. Katelyn, who was tall, slender, had long black curly locks and nicely tanned skin. She was a sophomore. And then there was me. Shorter, with curves in all the right places. long dark brown curly hair very pale, beautiful big dark brown eyes with full eyelashes.

I know it may seem like I'm being a rude bitch by saying I was the most beautiful creature lots of people have seen. And I don't say that in a way of being self centered, but it was one of my abilities. Vampires had enhanced beauty, but mine was enhanced even more. It was a fact me and my mother had learnt while doing research on ourselves. It was what came with the beauty of a vampire and on top of that I was already most likely going to be a naturally beautiful human. Which didn't always work out in my favor when it came to what my life has become.

Me and Angela were the only ones who were granted to attend school this year. Charlie had bought me a red rusty old truck from the blacks down at the reservation that worked just enough to get me and Angela to and from school. No where else.

After I finished telling the girls they were off the hook for tonight I made my way to my bedroom. I made my way to the bathroom that was connected to my room and took a nice hot shower. When I was done I got out and looked at myself in the mirror. Traced the scars. Bruises and burns. One long scar that started mid thigh and ended in the middle of my thigh, a bruise that almost looked like a complete hand print on the top of my chest. Some bigger and smaller scars and bruises all along my legs and arms from both me being as clumsy as I was and Charlie. Then there was one of my biggest reminders of my life, a tattoo that I had gotten a little over a year ago from sneaking out while Charlie wasn't home. I had decided to cover up a burn I had gotten from Charlie pushing a hot pan fresh off the stove to my shoulder, you could still tell it was a burn from the dimension that my tattoo had from the scar. That hadn't gone over well with Charlie in the end cause obviously he noticed it. But it had gone well with the costumers so Charlie let it slide. Other than that I was never really ashamed of my scars, but when it came to my bruises and still irritated burns, I tried to hide them. Especially since I was going to be leaving the house everyday now.

I left the bathroom and put on a black sweater along with some grey sweatpants and laid on my bed. Letting the silence that rung through the house consume me, hoping I'd fall asleep. Because the faster I fell asleep the faster id wake up and was out of this house for the first time officially out in public. Because besides my super quick midnight hunting trips here and there and that one time I snuck out I had never left the house since the day I stepped foot in it 3 years ago.

30 minutes had gone by and I had no success in falling asleep. All of a sudden I heard footsteps coming up the stairs. Most likely Charlies because they were loud, obnoxious and slow. I sat up on the bed because I knew he was coming to my room. I just had a feeling he was mad about something.

And of course he was. He came in pushing my door open so hard he almost broke it. And started walking towards me. He wrapped his hands around my wrists and threw me across the room. Which made me fall into my bookshelf. I was scared, like I always was and tried to grad my chest over the stop my heart was in with no success before He came up to me and picked me up off the ground, putting me back on my feet and pushed me against the wall. He started sloppily kissing and biting my neck, to the point where I knew there would be bruises tomorrow. He continued with that for a bit before letting me go and storming out of my room. I sank to the floor and cried. I eventually made my way to my bed and just cried for what seemed to be hours.

Next thing I know I'm waking up to Angela sitting next to me with a sympathetic smile plastered on her face. I knew then I had to get up to get ready for school.

So I mean my way to the bathroom before really acknowledging Angela who was still on my bed already ready to leave. I brushed my hair to tame it a bit so I didn't leave the house looking like I had a lion mane, but also left it a bit poufy to try and hide the bruises since I didn't have any makeup.

I walked out of the bathroom and without realizing it at first Angela had rapped her arms around me hugging me as tightly as she could. She pulled from me asking if I was ok. "Are you ok? I was still awake last night when…" She said with a soft tone, Angela really did have a pretty voice. You could tell she was a sweet person just seeing or hearing her. And it was true, if I hadn't had Angela I don't know how I would've made it through the years.

"Yes, I'm ok. If anything he went easy on me last night" I replied not really feeling ok but was still capable of making it seem like I was. She just looked at me, giving me the idea she wasn't falling for my lies.

She just let out a small sigh and left the room so I could get changed. I ended up putting a black long sleeved shirt that was tight around my body except for my forearms where it was loose and flowy to make sure my wrists were covered enough since Charlie had caused them to not only be in pain but also bruise. And I paired it with high waisted white jeans, I didn't necessarily ever get cold so I didn't need to cover up with a coat.

I made my way downstairs to find Angela eating a granola bar at the brown wooden slightly broken table in the kitchen. Charlie had already left for work which was a relief. Me and Angela didn't stay too long so we didn't wake the rest of the girl so they could sleep in since Charlie wasn't there till night.

We exited the house and hopped into the truck. We sat in a comfortable silence all the way to the school. Once we pulled into the parking lot and got out of the truck. I'm pretty sure we could both sense everybody's eyes on us, since well nobody has ever seen us before. We just looked up in awe. After all we haven't seen a real school in years.

We both looked at each other with wide eyes. And my gaze just so happened to peek behind Angela to see a familiar face. Mike Newton. I gulped nervously, getting Angela's attention. She looked behind her to see him standing there talking to some other people. She looked at me with worried eyes as I peeled mine away from the slightly taller boy with short blonde hair and sad eyes but always had the biggest smile on. He was one of my fathers clients, who just so happened to always ask for me.

I looked back at Angela then to the school and just started walking. I think Angela got caught up with a girl who decided to talk to her. I believe I caught her name as Jessica.

I had successfully made it into the building to the main office without tripping or stumbling once. Which made me internally proud of myself.

I walked through the office door to be greeted by a small group of boys sitting in chairs lined up against the wall who were left with their jaws practically touching the floor from just looking at me. I quietly giggled a bit, although I could see this causing lots of issues with girls and guys. Which I'd rather not do.

A bigger lady with reddish hair that looked like it was fading to a light orange was behind the desk. I walked up to the desk so I could get my schedule and head to my first class. She seemed to be too distracted with what seemed to be an email to notice me. It was a bit overwhelming for a second because I could hear everyone around loudly and quietly talking about me but with the hearing of a vampire I could hear everyone clear as day, and I wasn't enjoying it.

I ended up tuning every sound that was extra out so I could focus on getting my schedule. I cleared my throat to get the receptionist attention, which had worked. She looked away from her computer and up at me. As soon as she saw me her eyes lit up like she knew exactly who was. Well I guessed correct again she did know who I was. " Aw, you must be the chief's daughter" she said with a sweet tone that also came with a bit of rasp. I slightly nodded my head, because being referred to as Charlie's daughter made me feel sick. Like there was nothing I'd rather do than look at her and start yelling at her for calling him my father.

She gave me my schedule and told me to get my teachers to sign it and bring it back by the end of the day, which I agreed to and continued on my way down the hallway to my first class. Which was biology. I had kept my head down due to the amount of discomfort I felt standing in the front of the class. Especially with the teacher trying to hit on me.

As he handed me the slip and I ripped it out of his hands and looked him the eye. "Next time I'd appreciate it if you didn't stare at my chest and bite your lips while staring at me like a lost puppy" I said with frustration and anger practically leaking out of my words. The class fell completely silent except for one laugh that so charming almost hypnotic, I hadn't taken the time to see who it was but not even knowing it made me nervous. instead I just looked at the ground and started walking to the back of the classroom. the teacher just stared at me in awe.

I continued to walk away and passed by Angela's seat since she was in my class and she gave me a high five. I continued straight to the back of the class where the last open seat was. I sat down and immediately got hit with a strange but familiar smell. All the muscles in my body tensed and slowly my heart started beating uncontrollably. I held my left hand up to my heart as I did every time I felt like my anxiety was taking over. I calmed myself down without looking up and realized that I was sitting next to a vampire.

OH I wonder who's beside her… anyways i hoped you enjoyed this chapter and again thank you for reading. I will most likely be updating again tomorrow.

Always appreciate reviews, ideas and constructive criticism.
