Chad's POV

There is too much pressure on me lately.

My men are doubting my authority and the only reason for me still being sane is a little blond girl, unconscious at the lab.

She had the Hemlock at the drawer all the way, but she never took it, even thought I tortured her in so many ways. Physically and even more worse-mentally, but she never took it.

And here I asked for sex and she cut her veins the same second, spilling all the blood she has.

She's still in coma and I had to shut the door and leave my warehouse for a while. I'm loosing my authority. And I have never experienced such hunger before. It's like each brain cell goes on strike, refusing to think about anything, but warm blood from someone's artery.

I close my eyes and lick my lower lip, as fantasies suddenly drifts into my mind.

Why would I deny myself anything, that makes me happy?

On the other hand, I don't wanna be the monster. Super powers that are now developing quickly, is the good part of all this mess, but honestly? I would do anything to be normal.

I lick my lip again and lunge down from the highest top of sequoia I ever saw.

Another benefit. I can't be harmed.

I run like crazy towards a tempting smell calling me from hundreds of miles. It's coming from somewhere from the mountains and it's distracting, I was sure no one lives this close to the warehouse.

I consider the fact it might be those gipsies from the village I slaughtered months ago, the ones who ran away, but who knows.

But smell of blood is overwhelming. It's not wounded animal, no. This is human.

I stop at the precipice right on time and look down, regaining my balance, as the rocks starts falling down from under my foot.

"Well I'd be damned!"-i mumble and shake my head. I'm immortal, but i'm not really stupid.

I yank to my right, where silent and both rhythmic thumping of someone's heart suddenly catches my attention.

I run faster and in a second i duck in on an instinct, as a heavy shot trembles the sky.

That's one of those deja vu thingies, I bet.

I look around.

Single shot it was. Royal Remington, could never mistake it with anything else.

I had such gun a while ago, was one of my favourites, but sadly, I had to put it aside, as it was too loud and there was no way I could attach the silencer to it.

I fasten my pace and in a minute a lonely figure drifts in front.

Sad old man, probably around his 70-ies and a little mess, to say the least. He has his forearm bruised badly and little drops of blood are now soaking his redneck shirt sleeve.

I thought I would see something more than just a little bruise, according all the smell, but yeah, whatever I guess. My senses are now quite heightened and I didn't really adjust to this yet.

"Well hello there!"-i lift my imaginary hat and he lowers the gun. "Chad Haynes I am. What is your name?"

He shakes his silver hair nervously and rubs the back of his head. "Frank Dorton".

"You were hunting, or something?"-i raise my eyebrow and nod at the double barrel shotgun.

"Um...no...it's the damn dog. Bitch bled very bad giving birth, I had to...she was...she bit my hand for a good-bye. She was just..."
