There Will Be Blood by Brieanna Boyce (cool books to read .txt) 📖

"you're very different from the others..."

I bit her neck sinking my teeth into the soft flesh there, she cried out softly going restless underneath my grip, I licked the wound closed.

She was trembling, "I thought you wanted this," I cooed softly.

"I do," Fang said, "but I couldn't even tell you were a vampire..."

I smiled my eyes vacant, and pulled her violently and threw her onto the bed, "I'll teach you some things... and you can teach me some things," I climbed ontop of her.

"Are you teaching me now?" Her voice shook.

It was funny to watch Fang go from a predator to a nervous girl. I kissed her, "Mmno, Right now I'm rewarding you and you," I grabbed and squeezed her arms, "You are going to pay me back." She nodded, "Yes," she said breathing heavily through half lidded eyes, "yes I will."

The next morning I woke up the sun shining through the windows. There are so many things you expect when you lose your virginity, I certainly did. As a human, I thought I'd lose my virginity to Tristan, that it would be this beautiful magical moment, or even if it was losing my virginity to someone else I figured I'd feel something, anything. I felt more distant from my body than ever, it was as if something in my soul had broken, seperating from my body. I sold my body to vegeance, I stood up and walked into the window. I didn't care if anyone saw, if anyone saw my empty shell, my dirtied body. It somehow didn't matter, shame no longer existed, i had broken that. I thought of Kale, of Tristan and somehow felt I betrayed them. "You did," the she wolf condemned.

I ignored her and headed into the bathroom starting a bath and letting my fingers weave in and out of the water as it poured in the tub. I hummed softly to myself letting my mind go blank until two arms wrapped around me. I felt kisses along my neck that were gentle carresses. I pulled away gently and looked behind me.

Fang stood there her long hair covering her otherwise bare body. "Hello," she purred.

"Morning," the word came out dry, apethetic, sounding like a sharp snap from a dead twig.

She smiled, "may I join you?"

"No," I said turning back to the tub watching the water, "I need a few moments to myself."

The silence told me that I'd hurt Fang's feelings but I did not care she was easily manipulated and I would make it up to her later on. I got into the tub sinking in the steaming hot water feeling my taut muscles untwine and ease up I turned the knob on the tub off with my toe my gaze concentrated on the water dripping off of it.

I than turned and saw Fang still standing there.

"Something wrong?" I asked, not caring just wanting her gone.

"Do you regret having sex with me?" she muttered.

"Not particularly, but I've never had sex before and I'm usually not inclined towards women."

Fang seemed to wince under my honesty.

I looked at her and sighed, who knew she'd be so god damn sensitive? I rubbed my head, "Come here."

She walked over quietly, and sat down next to the tub next to me. "Yes?"

I looked up and took her chin than kissed her imagining Kale. His arms around me strong and warm his frame surrounding mine. Than when I pulled away I saw tears in Fang's eyes.

"I think I love you." She blurted.

A smile touched my lips, a sad smile but a smile nonetheless, she was not who I'd wanted to see. "I love you too," I cooed gently having my face carress her cheek, "I'm just tired is all, I need a little bit of rest."

Fang nodded and stood smiling, than left the room.

I had done my part, and played the game rather well and yet there was no sense of victory only an empty gap in my chest. I shook my head why did I think of Kale?

"Because he is your mate, you miss Tristan but Kale is your mate."

"SHUUUT UP!" I screeched angrily at my inner she wolf, I loved Tristan, I deeply care for Kale but right now niether of those things were helpful.

A vampire boy looked in, "Everything o-"

"Get out," I hissed.

He held up his hands in surrender, "okay, okay."

I submerged myself in the steaming water, I had to keep it together. I had to focus. I had no time for guilt, or guys, or to even think about the past this was the present. I had no time for tears. No time to think of anything but my mission I let the water around me take me away I was no longer in a tub but in the ocean being sent lower and lower in the current. Than black.

I woke up on the cold hard ground, I turned to my side coughing up water. I looked up into the alarmed eyes of Fang. Before I could say anything she slapped me on the face. I sat up angrily, "What the hell was that for?!"

She wrapped her arms around me, "Don't scare me like that ever again."

I rolled my eyes, "don't be a baby."

I sighed looking around relieved that no one else was there I sat up and pulled Fang up with me.

"I need to get dressed."

Fang nodded and lead me back to her room allowing me to borrow some clothes. Naturally they were too big for me, I looked like a little girl playing dress up.

Fang chuckled, "You look so cute."

I rolled my eyes and shoved past her, "Alright time to teach me some things."

Fang frowned following me, "What would you like to know?"

"I...," I began, shit I didn't even think through what I would say, I bit my lip. "I lived in America for a very long time traveling as a loner and just recently learned vampires had a queen..."

She smiled, "Ah I see, well in America vampires can get away with a lot more I even heard a fledgling went crazy and started feeding on vampires in New York, isn't that just mad?!"

I laughed nervously, "crazy..."

"Yeah," she shrugged, "Things are more refined here, this home that you see is more like a vampire hotel, a refuge if you will, some come because they're lonely, or sustained injury or simply out of boredom. Individuals come and go as they please. As you've guessed the life of a vampire is a lonely one..."

"Yeah..."

"Well at any rate here on the other side of the lake we do things differently, each district is owned by a manager, he gives territories and monitors the vampires in his area and makes sure there isn't any trouble. The managers report to a lord or lady who rules over several districts and managers and than finally they report to the queen herself who must than seek approval from the counsel."

My head was spinning, who knew vampires were so organized and political?

"Oh sorry," Fang laughed, "I'm guessing you didn't know any of that."

"No," I said, "I'm glad you told me though.... so where are the managers?"

Fang shrugged, "They're hard to get a hold of usually they come to us when they're looking for information, in fact lucky for you our manager is coming this afternoon."

That was extremely lucky for me, I didn't know if the manager would know about me or hear anything, he might have even been there for my "execution."

I had to be very careful and listen very closely.

Fang smiled and hugged me, "Don't be nervous all is well, the manager is not a mean man he will just come by ask me a few questions and than leave."

I nodded, but of course her words did not keep the anxiety at bay. I had to relax though, I took a deep breathe, if I was calm enough he would not suspect me. "Sorry love, just a little nervous is all, I didn't know any of this before now."

"yeah doesn't help that I myself don't know that much more than what I just told you." This new information was enough to get a slight idea for what was going on in the vampire world.

"Fang?"

Fang smiled, "Yes my dear?"

"Do you think I can listen in on your conversation with the manager?"

"Of course," Fang smiled moving a strand of hair from my face. She than placed a kiss on my lips, I could feel the passion there, the yearning. I kissed back for a short moment than pulled her away, and smiled emptily, "I'm going to wander around here..."

Fang frowned and took my hand than smiled sadly, "I know you don't love me...," she kissed my hand, "but I promise if you stick around you could fall for me."

I took my hand away coldly, "I never said I'd stay."

Fang's eyes watered, "but..."

"I thank you for your hospitality... but I don't think I'm a good companion for anyone...," I than turned on my heel and wandered through the hallways giving Fang time to collect her emotions. I looked through the beautifully designed hallways and heard a faint sound. As I got closer I recognized classical music playing, I recognized it as Mozart's lacrimosa... I wasn't exactly a classical music fan but once you find out that song exists there's really no confusing it.
I hesitantly walked closer to the music, until I reached a large mahogany door with elaborate carvings of angels and demons fighting...

When I opened the door I found a library stuffed full of books. Nothing was out of place, there were large wooden shelves and large leather seats scattered throughout the room. A large chandelier was in the middle and there were two or three vampires scattered throughout the library. I blinked when I saw Gerard... how'd he get here?! I ran over to him, he looked up at me and narrowed his eyes.

"What do you want..."

I hesitated, "You.... you look alot like someone I know." Exactly like someone I know in fact.

"Do I now?" The Gerard look alike inquired, he tilted his head to the side crossed his legs and rested his chin on his hand. His eyes were cunning, distant, this certainly wasn't Gerard. This person in front of me was alot more emotionally reserved and somehow seemed alot more feminine.

"Who did you mistake me for...?"

I shrugged, "it doesn't matter...," I backed away and made my way through the maze of shelves feeling my panic engrossing me but I remained calm and tried to at least pretend to think of the books. There's no way that that boy is not related to Gerard...

"There aren't that many people that look like me, light blue eyes, ghostly pale, practically white hair... I find it odd you'd confuse me with someone...unless," his voice dropped inaudibly, "you're speaking of my brother...Gerard."

"I don't know," I said, "I don't really remember."

The boy smiled, "I don't believe you... be more careful next time." His eyes glowed, they knew, I don't know if he knew that Gerard was a werewolf but something told me I'd have to be careful of this stranger in a friend's
