The New Beginning
Chapter 1: Great Awakening
Today would be a normal day, for any normal human girl. But, for me it is the day I will be changing myself. It's not really a choice, I can't control it. If only I did….
"Morgan, Morgan!" called Margaret
I turned to the sound of my name. Margaret came running down the hall. She was holding a piece of paper that was blowing in the wind. Margaret stopped on my side as I continued to take books out of my locker.
"Morgan! I have great news!"
"If it includes a way for me to stop changing into a vampire then continue." I thought
It was a good thing I didn't say that or else my secret would have been exposed.
"What is it Margaret?" I asked
"Look!" she screamed loudly
All of a sudden everyone's eyes turned onto us. I started to laugh nervously and dragged Margaret to the nearest girls' bathroom, in which luckily was around the corner.
"OK, what is it Margaret?" I asked once more
"Look at the list!"
She handed me a list of names and mine was at the top. The list was the results of last weeks voting's for the Moonlight Dance's King and Queen.
"Ugh!" I shouted with disgust
"What's wrong Morgan? Zane won King!"
Of course, Zane just happened to win King. Zane and I have been going out for a long while now but mainly for one reason: arranged marriage. Our families set up our marriage because our families are both pure-blood families. Even so, no one has ever figured out our secret and we are working hard to keep it that way.
I left the room and right by the door was Zane. He grabbed me from behind, put his arms around my waist, kissed me on my neck, and whispered onto my ear.
"We won again."
"Ugh! I rather have the marriage public."
"Oh, come on sweetie. You're an 18 year old engaged vampire. What more do you want?"
Then all of a sudden my worst nightmare and my new beginning came.
The boy came to drink water and then flashed an eye on Zane and I. Zane pushed me toward him like he was giving me a protective hug. They stared at each other and he left with a dirty look on his face. Never once did a man not fall for me. I knew it immediately that he was absolutely different.
That's when I knew it was the Great Awakening of my new beginning.
