Rachel looked at herself in the mirror one more time, she was wearing a black suit. Today was the first day with her new boss, and she wasn't sure that they would work together in harmony. A sigh escaped her lips as she adjusted her skirt that tightly hugged her curves. Rachel Estella tied her chestnut hair in a tight pony tail, she looked at her self one more time in the mirror then grabbed her hand bag and brief case before walking out of her apartment. It was a two bedroom apartment, with a large living room and a kitchen located on the seventh floor of the apartment building, it wasn't that cheap but it was enough for her and Sam whenever he was around. Rachel rode the elevator to the underground parking lot, then headed towards her car; she had forty minutes left to get to work or else she would be late. Sincerely Rachel didn't want to see Fred but she was still going to work, after all it was only because Sir Richard wished it so. It has been close to two years ever since th

The blood spluttered over her face as she knelt beside her lifeless father with his head resting on her lap. Her tiny fearful eyes stared upwards. Her mother's face was contorted with pain as the Strigoi drank from her neck greedily. Blood gushed from the wound where the monster had plunged his hand through her stomach holding her in place."Run little sky. Run," her mother choked out with her last ounce of strength before her loving eyes turned blank. Her five ft six frame sagged in the Strigoi's hold and with a malignant laugh; he wrenched his arm out pulling guts along with the movement. Amelie's body fell without the support keeping her upright. Kalani's eyes followed as her mother's body crumbled to land over her father's body.She stared with wide blue and green eyes up at the monster with a bloodstained mouth. A mouth stained with her mother and father's blood. The Strigoi reached out with a sly smile and the small girl cringed away shaking her head. He lost his patience and in

The first thing that I noticed was the rumbling noise in the background that reminded me of a plane. The second was the hushed whispers around me. The third was the really uncomfortable restraints around my wrists. I searched my mind for what had happened and everything came rushing back. The Moroi at the club, the fight in the changing rooms and someone hitting the back of my neck. Dread filled me as I realised, I was on a plane and I was being escorted back to the Academy that I'd left all those years ago.Slowly I peeled my eyes open and readjusted to the light. Looking up I felt a blush creep onto my cheeks. I was staring right at Joe. Somehow I was lying on his lap and I immediate sat up back into my own seat. I found the way that he stared at me unnerving, it was like he wanted to say something but thought better of it. "You're awake," he said unnecessarily at last."Yeah…" I trailed off. "You play dirty, you knocked me out.""It's not called playing dirty. It's was a necessity

I woke at around four in the afternoon and groaned. It was the third time since being back at the academy. The first time I woke up, I'd been hoping that everything that happened last night had all been a dream. Then when I looked around the room, I realised there was no point in hoping. I was back and I was back for good. At least until I turned 18 which was a solid year and a half away.After half an hour of rolling around, I realised that there was no way I could get back to sleep so I decided to get up. I had a shower to wash away the sleep in my body and I noticed a book on my desk when I came back out. It was a timetable outlining the times the meals were and when each lesson began and it also had the school rules. It didn't however tell me which lessons I had. Breakfast was at half six and lessons began at eight. Well at least that gave me a long time to get to reception to pick up my proper timetable. Or perhaps Joe would have it. He was going to be my mentor after all.Luckil

The next day was fairly uneventful but one thing caught my attention. Martin still hadn't come back yet. I'd spent the majority of the day – well night in this school's case – receiving a tour led by Roxy and Els. They're really warmed up to me compared to everyone else and I like them a lot too but I couldn't help but ask why they like me so much. They told me it was because I called the girls on the 'popular' table fish. To say that those girls hadn't liked it would be an understatement. One of them even drenched me in water with their magic but I didn't bother giving them the light of day. There was no point. If I retaliated I would've gotten into trouble and I'd rather make Joe's job as my mentor doable."Valentine, can I have a moment?" Joe asked when he found me in the common room watching a film with a bunch of other dhampirs."I could've sworn I haven't done anything today but okay. See you later guys." I told them as I got up."Tell us all about it when you get back Kai." Els
