starting to drip down his neck. My mouth opened not out of shock but out of want. I was off the couch and halfway to him when my body caught up to its self. I collapsed on the floor panting hard like I had just run a marathon.

“Lyric.” He was afraid.

“Gage why do I want your blood so badly?”

“Because you’re the blood princess.” He said hoarsely.

Chapter Nine

I was a what?

“What are you-“

I stopped talking when Gage took a knife I hadn’t seen and widened the cut on his neck. It was alluring and beckoning me teasingly as it dripped down his pale neck. I reached out to it and Gage was in front of me his eyes closed as he stood on his knees. I went to him pushing his head aside some so I could press my lips to his blood. I shivered and started to lick it up like a crack addict having a fix after a week without one.

The first time I tasted his blood it was like thick metallic water but this time it was like liquid sugar pouring down my throat. I dug my nails into his shoulder wanting more than the cut was letting through. I growled at him again biting him with my human teeth like I didn’t know I had no fangs. I fell flat on my face and jumped back up growling at Gage.

“Calm down Lyric please.” He was seriously scared right now.

I ran after him, after the blood I could faintly smell from his neck. He dodged and ran up to my room again to hide. I wouldn’t allow it I broke down my own door and searched for him. I saw the corner of his jacket in my closet and yanked him out roughly. He hit my bed knocking the mattress off halfway and his back cracked my frame. I charged him missing by an inch when he stood taking a step left.

But the move he thought help had been to my advantage I reached out taking him down with me as I tumbled over the mattress. It wedged itself between the wall and its frame. I pinned Gage down to it so I was straddling him and holding his arms down. His eyes were full of terror as I dug at the cut with my nails to open it more. I heard his scream and I froze,

what am I doing?

My face was buried in his bloody neck and I had him pinned somehow despite his struggling.

I pulled back looking at him with teary eyes. I had done this to him. Chased him down like a piece of meat. Then when I knew I had him I tore at his neck just to satisfy my own cravings. I started to get up off him so I could run and shut myself in the bathroom but he stopped me. He held me there by the waist and I caved in. I rested my head on his chest grabbing fists full of his shirt as I cried.

“I’m sorry Gage I don’t know what’s wrong with me. What I am anymore.”

“Shhh its ok, it’s ok. It was my fault for letting you taste my blood in the first place. For letting you start to awaken.” He said soothingly.

What are you talking about?”

“You’re the princess, unlike normal vampires, you feed on vampire blood.”

Chapter Ten

I was dancing and singing along to a song as I cleaned my room after the accident. Gage had gone down stairs to clean promising an explanation when he returned. I let him go only after I made sure he wasn’t just going to leave as soon as he was down the stairs. After I had some of his blood I felt as good as new, it was amazing.

My body started swinging to the beat and after the first chorus I was dancing and singing.

“Why they have do go and make things so complicated.”

I loved this song and I was just to in love with it to even attempt to look like I was cleaning. I dropped the sheets I was going to put on my bed and jumped on it. Shaking my head and singing into a fake microphone like a moron. I spun and then started dancing like I was at a club.

I jumped off the bed doing a sliding tada move and found myself face to face with Gage.

Omg I’m going to die.

He raised an eyebrow to me then pulled me up. I started to walk away but he pulled me against his chest.

“May I have this dance?”

“Uh uh uh yeah?” I stuttered.

He smiled wide and spun me to the radio. He messed with it and spun us back to the room. Kiss a girl by Keith Urban started playing as we danced. I felt hotter against his cold skin then I thought the blush was actually making me. Thankfully he stared talking while we dance.

“The new princess comes around every time the previous one dies. She’s like the most powerful vampire ever. She can do magic. But she is also hunted so no one side gains her. It’s tragic really and I wish I never found out it was you.”

I looked down at his chest leaning my head against it while I watched our feet.

So every princess who ever lived was hunted by her own kind, and I’m next

. My face contorted into a grimace at my own thoughts. Gage lifted my head and I stiffened at his look. His was looking at me like I was his territory again. ‘Cross that line put your lips on mine.’

He whispered to me just before he kissed me. I thought it was our first kiss and I was shocked but then he felt so familiar. The way his lips moved with mine I knew that the dream was reality and I had kissed him last night.

Chapter Eleven

I looked at the blue notebook in my hands. A full week had passed and Gage was teaching me about vampires. I realized I would never remember the real stuff from the books and movies I’d seen so I made a note book, hence the blue one in my hands with ‘vamp’ written on the front in red pen. I fell back on the couch looking over some random notes and comments I made on them.

Killing-
Holy water, or if you say silver moon and throw water one them. (Weird much.)

Silver if shot not touched. (Must break skin basically.)

Be heading. (Really what doesn’t die then?)

Changes-
Drain the blood then give them some of vampires. (Humans can have vampire blood and not change but it’s nasty.)

Skin pales and eyes turn red. (Stereotypical haha.)

Types-
Beta vampires drink human blood on a regular basis without killing. (Gage)

Feral vampires kill humans when they feed, it’s also irregular.

Princess vampire is a girl who has magic powers and feeds on vampires. (Me)

I sighed I hated being this princess. It would only get me killed sooner or later. But first I have to be turned and I don’t think I want to be. I was cruel enough to Gage when I was human I might end up killing him if I’m a vampire.

This is so boring.

I hopped up off the couch going up stairs to invite Morgan over.

While the adults are away the children will play

, I thought evilly.

If my parents get to have fun on a week long vacation I was going to have fun too. But sadly her phone rang and rang till it went to voice mail.

“Yo, Morgan I was wondering if you wanted to hang out, hit me up when you get this bye.” And I hung up.

Well darn now what?

Just then the door bell rang and I walked over tugging the heavy door open. A little girl no older than eight was sobbing on my door step.

Chapter twelve

“What’s wrong little one?” I said sweetly.

She sniffled looked up showing me a round face framed in black ringlets and ran to me hugging my waist. I was startled but then hugged her back gently. This is kind of weird. I squatted down untying my bandana and giving it to her so she could whip her eyes. She whipped them and then blew her nose offering it back to me.

I smiled shaking my head no she could keep it. I put my arm around her taking her in side as it started to rain.

Gage would be inside too, I mean it’s not like it will melt him or anything, it’s just that what if someone says silver moon? A rain storm is like a death trap for vampires, I just hope he’s inside

.

I lead her to the kitchen whipping up some hot chocolate for her. I slide over a mug once it finished and took a seat across from her.

“So can I ask why you’re out by yourself during a storm?”

“I ran away because my foster brother was so mean. He made me do things I didn’t want to.” She said shivering.

I frowned at her wanting no more details. I shrugged out of my jacket and draped it over her shoulders. She grabbed the edges pulling it around her and sipped at her coco with one hand. I couldn’t throw her back out in the rain, but I sure couldn’t keep her here.

What would my parents think when they returned to find a kid with me

. I grabbed the phone turning the corner of the kitchen and dialed Morgan again. Surprisingly she picked up on the first ring.

“Hello?” An identical voice said.

“Hey Morgan I got a problem can you come over like now?”

“What did you do now?"

“Hey that’s mine line you’re the trouble maker not me.”

She laughed.

“Ok be there in about…does ten minutes work?”

“Oh dear god don’t drive yourself.”

“Try and stop me.” And she hung up.

I pulled the phone back grimacing at the screen. Morgan house was twenty minutes from mine and she was a notorious lead foot. I returned to the kitchen to find the girl looking around the cow covered kitchen. That was mom for you, cows for a decoration in a kitchen. I smiled sweetly at the girl holding my hand out. She hopped off the chair leaving behind her coco as I took her up stairs to the guess room on the top floor.

It was right across from my room and it was never used not even when family visited. They used my room instead when a perfectly good guest room went to waste. I pulled the covers off the vanity mirror and chair by the window while the girl sat on the bed. I heard the front door bang open and someone shout my name. I looked over to the clock on the wall in horror,

it’s only been eight minutes, she’s nuts!

“Just a minute, um what’s your name?”

“Angela.”

“Ok Angela, just a second and my names Lyric.”

I hurried out the door to the railing and called down to Morgan to come
