(A Morganville Vampires Fanfic!)
Claire is a rare species, with both vampire and werewolf coursing through her veins. She was living with her nymph parents, Gina and Craig, whom Claire suspected used to know her dead father. Her real mother is out there somewhere, or possibly dead.
But that doesn't matter right now. Right now, Claire is in serious danger. She's so different from everyone out there, that the slightest secret revealed could put a jolting end to her life. Even when the powers are immense and advantageous, rarity comes at an extremely high cost.
Lab experts out there would do anything to dissect her body.
Vampires can sniff out her richness from miles away.
The deadly vampire, Bishop, wants her. She's so precious and a wonderful prize.
Claire has a very low chance of living through it all, but what if she doesn't know that?
"Cora..."
I say with an annoyed tone. I throw her arms off my waist, and grab a hold of Claire's hand. She gives Claire a distasteful look then looks at me.
"Couldn't you find a better date?"
I walk to her, letting go of Claire's hand and I close the distance between Cora and I. I grab a hold of her arm and feel the bones crush underneath my hand. I feel Claire grab a hold of my arm, but I don't respond to her.
"If you ever talk about my date like she isn't in the room, or even if you say what you said again, I will snap your neck. Now, run along."
I say letting go of her arm. She gives me a look of hatred then scurries away. I find Claire's body with one of my hands and I feel her engulf me with her arms.
"Please don't do that again."
She says softly.
A family of Vampires? Can they endure the craziness that follows the girl that they saved? Will the family be able to protect her, or will they be too late to save a girl that can change their life forever?
