"Drake?" I whimper.

I can barely grip hold of reality as I stare into the bright purple irises of the man I had been talking to five seconds ago. He's no longer a man.

He's a fucking monster.

In his mouth are two fangs. Fangs. He's a vampire?

Drake growls, similar to the sound of a hungry tiger. He opens his mouth a little wider, and I notice another set of sharp fangs in his bottom gums, too. They glisten in the dim light from the TV. I can't move from under his strength and weight. He's got me pinned down on my back.

He lowers his head down to my neck and grazes it with his lips. Testing me. I stay perfectly still, telling myself over and over again:

Don't panic. Don't panic.

My head spins wildly as I feel him I insert two of his fangs. I gasp and my eyes widen. There's no pain, only. . .

  . . .pleasure.

I ball my fists and arch my back. Before he can get to sucking my blood, the door flies open.

Drake whips his head around and roars with anger. I feel a few drops of blood collect at the two bites and they slide down to the carpet.

"Aubrey, no!" the man at the door says. He rushes over and pulls Drake off of me. I quickly sit up and scoot away frightened, watching as the other man's eyes glow orange. There are tears falling silently down my cheeks.

He could have killed me.

I was looking straight into my death.

The other man's eyes glow brighter and brighter, all the while keeping his grip around Drake's body. Drake slows his movements, his eyes slowly closing, and goes limp. The other man sighs loudly and his eyes dim.

"I'm Charlie," he says, nodding at me. "My friend here, he, uh. . ."

  I stand up. "Where ever you're going, I'm going too," I say in a trembling voice.

Charlie looks me up and down.

"I want to know what's going on." I rub the bite marks, which feel like two piercings. "Take me with you."

Hesitantly, Charlie nods.

*Ten minutes later*

Drake is propped up against a brick wall, his face peaceful, but he keeps making beast-like noises in his sleep.

"So you're saying. . ." I shake my head, "You're saying that he's a Siren? A vampire?"

Charlie nudges Drake with the toe of his sneaker, and Drake growls again, his fangs slipping out. "Yeah, pretty much."

No words. I have no words.

"He's going through his Change," Charlie explains, sticking his hands in his pockets. "When vampires either go good or bad. In this case, his type of species, I mean, he's supposed to Change on his twenty-fifth birthday, which is in two months. My species Changes at birth. So that's a bad thing."

"A bad thing? How?"

"If you go bad, then the other vampires have to kill you. Either that, or he alone, and I think maybe another vampire, could end all life in America." Charlie watches Drake carefully. "That's basically it. He's not supposed to change this early." He stares at me for a few seconds, then looks away quickly. "It's you."

  "Excuse me?" I ask, crossing my arms. "I ain't got shit to do with it! I'm just a regular human. Fuck you mean?"

"Scent."

"Huh?"

"It has to do with a person's scent. You have a very strong one, and we so happened to bump into you after not having a meal in a long time." Charlie leans against the wall opposite from Drake. "So. Yeah."

I nod, taking it all in. "Okay."

Charlie looks confused, as if he expected something more. He shrugs.

We wait for him to wake up.

I got another chapter coming soon, but let me go to sleep first. I'm tired.
