Disclaimer: I DO NOT OWN VAMPIRE KISSES!

I was woken up by someone screaming my name. But it wasn't Raven. It was… Becky? What is she doing here at the mansion?

I listened closer and heard the sound of terrible sobbing. Raven! I quickly opened the lid to my coffin and sat up. I was about to climb out and run down the stairs but stopped myself. Using my vampire senses I realized the sun was still up. I looked at my phone: 5:00. I still had an hour until I could go down there and comfort her.

Sitting there in my open coffin, I listened to the love of my life crying her eyes out as Becky was trying- and failing- to comfort her for the next hour.

The second the sun went down I jumped out of the coffin, put a pair of black jeans on, and ran downstairs. Listening for a second I hear it coming from down the hallway.

I ran down the hall and into the TV room. There, on the black leather couch were Becky and a crying Raven. Quickly I walked over to the couch. Raven looked up at me and instantly jumped into my arms. "Alexander!" she cried and sobbed into my bare chest.

I sat down on the couch and she curled up on my lap, tears still streaming down her face.

Looking over at Becky, I mouthed, "What happened?"

She sighed and pulled a shoebox out of her backpack. "She found this in her locker," she said and opened the box.

I gasped. Inside the box was a little baby doll that had a horrified look on its face. The disturbing part was the knife piercing its chest. And all of the fake blood covering it. It was horrible. Why would someone do something so cruel?

Raven looked over at the gruesome baby doll and sobbed harder into the pale skin of my chest.

"Shh," I said soothingly. "Shh, It's okay. I'm right here."

Becky stood up, looked down sadly at me, and left.

Once alone I placed Raven on the couch to lay down and walked into the kitchen, getting her a glass of water.

Coming back I see my girlfriend sitting up with her pale hand on her rounded stomach. "Mommy won't let anyone hurt you," she whispered. "I promise."

I walked up and kneeled in front of her, taking her hand in mine. "Are you okay?"

She looked down at me. "I'm scared Alexander. Someone wants our baby dead and I'm really scared."

"I know but I promise I will never let anyone harm you or our baby," I vowed, holding her close to my bare chest.

After a while I hear her breathing even, telling me that she's asleep.

I lay down on the couch, pulling the sleeping girl on top of me.

Who would want to hurt our baby? And why would they send that gruesome baby doll?

I'm going to find out who this creep is and put an end to this.

No one will hurt my family.


I lurked down the halls of Dullsville High, looking for Raven's locker. I turned the corner to the hallway where her locker would be when I heard voices.

"I see she got our gift," a girls high soprano voice said.

"Yeah, Trevor said she ran out of the school crying," a deeper, male's voice commented.

I had to hold back a growl when he said Trevor's name.

Peering around the corner, I saw a pale skinny girl with long pure white hair. Luna Maxwell. So she's the one up to this. But why?

Quickly transforming into a bat, I flew back to the mansion.


"Alexander?" Raven's voice asked as I quietly walked into my bedroom, trying not to wake her up and obviously failing.

"I'm sorry, did I wake you?"

She sat up on the king sized bed. "No, I was waiting for you to come back."

I sat down on the bed next to her. "You should be sleeping. You need your rest."

Raven pouted. "I'm not a baby."

"No but you're carrying one," I said placing my hand on her slightly swollen stomach.

She sighed and placed her hand on mine. "Yeah."

"What's wrong?"

My girlfriend shrugged. "I don't know, everything is just different. I moved into the mansion, I'm not talking to my family, my clothes don't fit me anymore, and now someone's threatening to kill my baby."

I pulled her onto my lap and kiss her hair. "Everything will work out, I promise. And tomorrow I'm taking you to get new clothes."
