Previously:

I return home in the middle of the night, fumbling with my money as I’m paying the taxi driver. I stumble up my driveway, having had way too many shots tonight.

“Aah you’re home…and just in time for dinner” a woman says as I squint my eyes, trying to see who it is in the dark.

“Who’s there?” I ask nervously.

Helena emerges from the dark, smiling evilly at me.

“What are you doing here?” I ask, taking a step back almost falling over since my balance is quite off at the moment.

“As I said…I’m here for my dinner” she still has that evil smile on her face as she steps up to me.

“You can’t touch me I’m marked” I ramble, not liking the look on her face.

She laughs as she looks at me, shaking her head “That doesn’t mean I can’t touch you beautiful” she says moving her hand to my neck.

“But…”

“That merely means that the vampire that marked you can kill me without punishment if she finds out I fed on her little human” she smirks “I didn’t like the way she treated me the other night” she growls into my ear “and now I really feel like pissing her off”

“Please” I say with tears in my eyes.

“I sure wish you hadn’t drunk as much as you did tonight thou…the blood tastes so much better when it’s pure” she murmurs into my ear as tightens the grip on my neck.

“Bette” I try to yell.

Helena stands back and laugh, shaking her head “Aren’t you cute” she says “Calling out for your vampire to come and save you”

She releases the hold on my neck and I take the opportunity to yell out for Bette again.

“That’s enough” Helena growls angrily, taking a hold of me, covering my mouth.

“You better pray I won’t drain you” she growls into my ear “Because it sure feels tempting right now” and with that I feel her fangs pierce the skin on my neck as I cry out, struggling in her strong hold.

Chapter 7

I struggle to free myself from Helena’s strong hold but to no use. Her fangs are buried deep inside my neck and she hungrily sucks my blood as her arms are holding me in a vice grip.
