The Stake of Us

A possessive vampire who learns to control his hunger for his human best friend, she has no clue what he's hiding.
---------
After a fateful tragedy, her uncle thought Suzy Paige would never be able to have a normal childhood. But things changed when Suzy met a boy named Tristan Ackerman.

They developed close relationships; he became her best friend. As they grew older, Suzy began taking notice of the captain of the football team, Aiden Kenna.

Tristan began to act differently, and their relationship dynamic shifted as horrifying events began taking place, lines were crossed, and chaos ensues in their small town.
------------------

Tristan stands at the doorway watching her.

Sensing him, Suzy sits up on her bed "Do you have a lot to do?" Suzy asks

Tristan walks into her room, he sits next to her leg "No, not a lot" he said

"Good, so I looked up some more on your topic mythological creatures. So fascinating, do you think Cthulhu exist?" She asks

Tristan chuckles "Suzy, no it doesn't exist. Cthulhu is a fictional character created by Lovecraft."

"You think so?" She looks up at him

He run his finger over the bridge of her nose lightly she crunches her face up at him "yeah, I know so. Now show me what else you got." He said leaning in closer to her laptop. Her long lashes fan as her eyes scans the computer screen, cute button nose with tiny freckles.

His eyes drop lower to her full bottom lip, they part slightly concentrating on screen. He runs his eyes down lower to her slender neck, pulsing under his gaze.

"What about vampire?" She asks

The room humps in quiet energy as he looks into the depth of her blue eyes.

"What about them?" He asks softly, not taking his eyes off hers.

"They're mythological creatures, says here they're creature of folklore originated from the European."

Dark figure hover over a woman's exposed neck.

His eyes linger on the intimacy of their embrace.
