Lizette's eyes dart around the forest behind me as if trying to locate the source of her bite.

My heart pounds deep in my chest like a maraca shaking at a constant cycle, I bring my hands down to hold down Liz's shoulders to calm her down.

She lets out another scream and my eyes move down to hers, tears stream down her bloodied face dripping onto the dirt underneath her, her chest also rising and falling erratically.

"I-its going to b-be okay Liz," I say checking my surroundings, blood is coming out of her neck fast now and soon she'll fall unconscious.

I grab the bottom of my t-shirt and lift the edge up to my mouth, using my mouth I rip a long strip off and use the measly piece of fabric to help stop someone the bleeding. Liz has stopped screaming which tells me that she's fallen unconscious.

I let out a sigh of relief glad that she won't be able to feel pain, then I pull off the cardigan I had on and tied the sleeve around her neck to prevent more blood from oozing out. I sit back wiping my forehead smearing blood across it.

Then I realize that my phone is sitting on my dining room counter, I stand up and grab both of Liz's arms and drag her along the forest floor only stopping when I reached the forest edge, I pulled her further into the grass then lay her down carefully.

I turn and sprint for the back door adrenalin pumping through my chest, I slam the door open and race into my kitchen my eyes getting used to the darkness, my eyes scan both the counters and everywhere around my kitchen. I curse under my breath and lie flat on the ground checking under the counters and in the corners. Nothing.

I groan and race into the dining room to find my phone laying on the coffee table, I grab in and run back outside kneeling beside Liz.

I push her blond hair away from her eyes and dial 911 then pressing the phone up against my ear.

It rings once before a clear voice interrupts the silence.

"Crownsville 911 services, what is your emergency?" A women's voice says.

I take a deep breath then relay what had happened to her, she then asked me what my address was and what happened, then she said that an ambulance and police car were on their way and would be here in a matter of minutes.

She hangs up the phone when I hear the sirens racing down the dirt road racing closer to my house.

Three men race around into the backyard two of them pushing a stretcher, the other one running in front.  They wheel it up beside me and I stand back letting them work on her, she gets transferred onto the stretcher and I follow as she's wheeled to the ambulance parked in front of my house.

My eyes widen when I spot a mass of people crowded around the ambulance trying to see what all the commotion was about since it's not every day that accidents happen in our small quaint town.

Curiously I slip over towards the crowd and notice Mrs. Greene my older neighbor standing off to the side.

"Rose! Oh dear, I thought you were the one that got hurt" she waddles over and wraps her arms around me.

I smile and hug her back, she's been like a mother to me since my mother died and my dad has been god knows where, I've gotten used to her home-baked pies and food she'd drop off while walking her dog.

"I'm fine, it was Liz I think she got attacked by some type of animal..." I trail off looking down at the ground.

That's what I would say to anyone who asked, only an animal attack. I knew deep down that this was something supernatural. Since I've found out about jasper and his kind I now believe that other supernatural beings live among us.

Mrs. Greene wishes me farewell asking me to give Liz her condolences, she walks off with her dog-walking close behind.

I turn when I feel someone staring at me, her pale blond hair sticks out from the dark scene around us, her light red eyes narrow and she struts over to me shaking her hips and flipping her hair out of her eyes.

She stops meer inches from me and unfolds her arms sticking them into the back pockets of her ripped jeans.

"I'm sorry, I don't think we've met I'm Morgan... your new neighbor" she shoots me a sickening smile also sticking out her perfectly manicured hand.

I chuckle lightly and shake her hand, " Rose Daniels" I say smiling sweetly.

She pulls her hand away harshly wiping it against the front of her jeans shooting me a glare, "whatever just stay away from us.... I don't think your friend over there got the memo" she looks over her shoulder towards the ambulance where they are now lifting. Liz into it.

My eyes dart to her suspiciously, I am about to say something but am suddenly interrupted.

"Don't go giving away all our secrets now my love..." an enchanting voice says from behind Morgan. And the man that closely resembles Dorian pulls Morgan into his chest trapping her in his arms.

She scoffs pushing his arms away, "you're impossible... don't come near me pathetic cheater." Morgan spits slapping the strange man hard across the face her nails digging into his skin cutting across his cheek.

Morgan rolls her eyes then struts away down the street, I turn shocked towards the man who is probably in so much pain--

No blood, no cut, nothing.

I stare at his face in awe, not understanding, "yo-you just had a cut?"

He chuckles bringing his hand up to brush the part in his cheek where the cut should have been.

"Well, well darling you are different.." he steps closer his dark blue eyes raking down and up my body. "I'm Mordecai, you are way hotter than how my dear brother Dorian described you," he says licking his lips and walking closer as if he was under a spell and all he wanted was me.

I try to step around him towards the ambulance but I turn to find it gone along with everyone else.

My bite starts stinging dramatically when Mordecai harshly grips my wrist, he pulls it up towards his mouth and fangs appear, I scream out in horror.

Vampires... they are real, everything is true the stories, myths, legends, all of them and now I know I am going to die. I try but fail to yank my wrist away when all of a sudden grizzly crack sounds and my wrist falls slack, I open one eye to find Mordecai laying on the ground his neck twisted into a horrific shape.

I stumble back not believing my eyes, his neck was absolutely broken.

"Sorry about him, he is always like that," the deep familiar voice says, I look up to Dorian's dark purple eyes.

I nod in thanks, he pulls me up and guides me away from his brother's body.

"Wait you are going to just leave him there?" I mutter checking over my shoulder at the unconscious vampire making sure he isn't following.

Dorian shrugs and keeps walking, I take that as a yas and follow close to him we walk for a few minutes in silence until he speaks up.

"So you know what we are?" He asks.

I nod not meeting his eyes, it all makes no sense vampires exist, and werewolves what else then.

"I'm sorry about this" he mumbles and grabs my wrist, he jabs my arm with a needle as I feel the warm liquid slipping into my bloodstream.

My blurry eyes flutter up to his pain-filled ones as I fall to the ground unconscious the darkness of oblivion filling my thoughts and enveloping me in a blanket of black.
