An old man and "the kittens"

He ran away while I tried to save cats! Well done Jack just well done...I brushed with my hand through my black hair and scanned again the field, there isn't any quick heart beating, so nobody saw us, my vision didn't scan any cameras. Quickly I put all bodies in my white old van. Lilli went a little bit farther and began to dig a grave for kittens. She didn't care at all about human bodies which were strange things to me. Did people change a lot from my time?

Sometimes I looked at how they act. They became more like us: the dead ones, they didn't care about each other all they care what life was on their phones. They are passing easily in not helping others as that couple made their way from Lilly. They knew Lilly was in trouble and they pretended that they didn't see anything, more important was their phone, they felt somehow more comfortable looking at it than seeing in their own eyes what is happening in the real world. And like everybody else they knew that involving in this situation would cause problems for them too.

It is a natural behavior of humans. But Lilly acts more stranger than another human in being. She risked her life for kittens and didn't care for dead bodies which were lying by her. She didn't afraid me and didn't feel surprised seeing my vampire powers. She tried to save these kittens so hard in knowing the risk. I know how she cares about her baby, she knew that those men could kill her and still she went in confident through my car to them. The baby would be left alone in this world. She had nobody to be here for her. And people are a little bit familiar with a wolf's pack. They need to be with somebody, they can't survive alone as we do, the dead ones. I looked for a moment at Lilliana Storm she had tears in her eyes, so many emotions, it was interesting to look at her, at her anger at sadness and joy at the same time, these tears showed everything that I can't feel anymore. It hypnotized me. She was concentrated on digging, she found some trash which helped her to dig the ground, so she didn't use her fingers in hard ground, the wind already dried her messy hair and they became curly even more than ever. I could see some freckles on her nose, which made her so cute. Her eyes burned with life, with fire which I didn't see in a long time even in humans life. She looked so real so full of light. And also she was and acted strangely. I couldn't imagine that this will be our first meeting, firsts words. And her firsts words to me was "the bag" but her gaze....it was something that she was looking that this bag was her life. As she would be that kitten which was drowned. Her eyes screamed at me more than her voice. I couldn't ignore it, I felt helpless at her gaze, I couldn't disappoint her. Those kittens had meant everything to her and since that this also means to me. 

I couldn't drop eyes from her kneeling knees how she tried to warm the kitten with one hand and with another she slowly and carefully put the cat's bodies to the hole, some sobs left her mouth. With those sobs, I heard steps, and my body tensed immediately, I turned around and saw an old man. He was wearing a grey suit, on his head a hat it suited his suit, he looked neatly, not rich but really good in his suit, nowadays people wear casual clothes but some old men still wear costumes while they only walking in the park or reading ducks, as well as this man, did, while I have murdered his kind. He was walking with a black stick by his one side, which head was a wolf made of wood.

I smelled him, he was an ordinary human, not a wolf as I thought at the first moment, many humans had been liking symbols of the wolf without knowing the meaning of it. And they are using it as a pride of their strength. Even wolves get old after many many years especially if they won't use their wolf in the first place then their bodies adapt more like humans. Mostly they won't live in a huge city, their territories are more in nature. There are only a few humans who had the honor to live with them, it makes me laugh how humans manage to train those creatures...Well if they are lucky and those stinky dogs don't kill them in living together. They are predators like me, but still, some are naive and thinks that human can train them. They call it to mate or something like that. Only dogs can't have free will of living in the way they want, they are forced to listen to other wolf orders, forced to love what they even don't know forced all the time to be in one place. They have no freedom like us the dead ones have. Nobody will train me to act in the way somebody else wants. I go and do whatever I want and be with whatever want, the only thing I can't feel the way the human does or werewolf does and it makes me angry. Even anger and jealousy are new to me. The only thing that was important was lust for blood and how I keep it in the way I liked, but for now, somehow everything changed. My thoughts went again to new sounds.

He was calm his breathing slowly, so he wasn't under stress, which means he didn't see what had happened here while he fed ducks on another side of the water. It means I can leave him alive. He passed me slowly, but somehow I felt strange like he was a danger. My all vampires' senses were alarmed, my teeth were growing but my brains didn't understand why? His blood didn't smell very good and I wasn't enough hungry that I desperately need it. He was looking straight but when our shoulders were a few millimeters away it almost touched me, he smiled without looking at me. Yes, I could see the smile in the corner of his lips. he bold his head with his hand on his hat and the hat kept in secret his eyes. His hand lowered hat, even more, this guest showed his respect while passing, and mostly the human's respect wasn't important to me but this old man had a strange aura. He was confident, he was calm and collected. He something knew but for humans knowing that the monster is behind them is the reaction of running, screaming, because they feel helpless, and it's natural, but about this man.... something is unnatural. But I can't sense what. 

-"Go to the car!" I said to Lilly in a harsh and cold voice.  Her head reacted to my voice and she turns around from the grave she made. The kittens already were underground.

-"But I didn't finish". She said to me still kneeling on the ground. "I need some flowers and..."

-"I said go." I ordered her and didn't let her finish what she needed. she was trying my patience. Not only I showed myself today to her but to others too. I put myself into danger for fucking cats while for more than a hundred years I haven't made any mistakes so far and in a few months, all I did was mistakes. I also have one victim who managed escape and I need to deal with that as quickly as I can. I have some time because he can't speak but he is conscious soon others begin to believe in what he will try to show other people, what had happened to him. When I remember what his tongue said to Lilliana and what it wanted to do with her I couldn't help but tear out of him, his pain was sweeter than his blood. But Lilly distracted me, it is what causes when you broke the rules, it causes alive victim. Alive victim means danger for being exposed. If we will be exposed there will be chaos and war again. Hunters will be awakened again and all supernatural creators will end their existence and this time for no chance of escaping. But what more what scared me than war, was this old man I didn't want her being near him, I wanted to keep her away from him the farther I could. Even if my brain didn't understand my senses of a vampire.

She shivered from my harsh voice and finally listened to my order and came closer to me. The old man stopped walking and wanted her to come closer to us, that what made my fangs grow longer. His back was faced to me, I could easily tear his head away from his neck. 

- "It needs to be warmed, " The old man said to Lilly my eyes soon were occupied by the dark. The old man looked at Lily and she was looking at her hands which were holding a shaking kitty. 

- "I know, sir. He was been through a lot" She said with her sad eyes which began to water again. I stepped few steps in one side near him and now I could see one corner of his side of the face which a hat had hidden his face so well. The silence was tense and I began to imagine how my teeth will go through his skin. Only what's stopping me is Lilly.

-"I will take care of him" her eyes looked to his face. her face was serious, "I promise" she continued in a serious tone that sounded confident. I stepped one more time nearer him.

-"I have no doubt about that ." He smiled, I could see his white teeth, but couldn't see his eyes he lowered his hat with his hand one more time when I slowly walked to his left side nearer him. I sniffed him, nothing, I can't smell anything and he doesn't react to my presence at all. He is still calm even if my black eyes are burning into his skin.

-"Have a nice evening mam, you should go now, those streets are dangerous in the evenings and even more at night" He walked again and made his distance from Lilly which calmed me a little bit.

-"And good luck with your kittens you will need that..." He chuckled a little bit which made me confused. What the fuck he just said? I looked at his back which was slowly moving away from us. Lilli also looked at his back with a confused look and for the first time, I saw the shock in her eyes.

    "-Do you know him?" I asked Lilly if I would be her old friend and not a stranger. But she just shook her head from one side to another showing me the answer no. Still looking with her worried eyes to the side where that old man was going."- Do you?" She asked me the same. But I couldn't answer her, some words were kept in my mouth, her light green eyes mesmerized me. It was like a green diamond. Her little nose with those freckles and full lips took my attention away, now her hair looks a little bit red when the sun was slowly moving down. But not all only some of it.When I didn't answer her she finally looked at me. Her eyes locked with mine. She curiously looked at my long black hair which easily was laying on my shoulders. Her pupils traveled to my neck, she noticed my necklace and kept her eyes there for a moment, then she looked at my chest and her cheeks became brightly red.-"We need to go I need to get rid of the bodies." I said calmly and couldn't help

I wanted a tattoo so damn but I was embarrassed to say that my father would die in shock if he would be mortal. He likes to call me a lady. I don't even know what this word exactly means. But I think Jack's ladies don't have a tattoo or other shit I want."When you were there with your friends." He continued. Manny stood up from his chair with his cup and went by the table where his papers with pictures of a tattoo were laying. Those I had been thrown up everywhere on the floor, but now they are all collected. He gave one to me. I took it looking into his eyes. I don't know why but his gaze began to make me feel nervous. "Then you said that tattoos aren't your thing" He paused for a moment, when he realized that he was rudely staring at me he took his latte into his hands and he sip

    I couldn't believe what Jack did to Rose. He washed her brains. Did he ever had done that with me too? He could manipulate me whenever he wants and I wouldn't know that... It was so easy to do to him this.-"What is wrong with you today?" Jack came to the house after me, he closed the doors with annoyance. -"What is wrong to me, what is wrong to you?" I asked with a surprised look and my voice with a little bit too loud.-"You don't seem very happy to see me around". Jack crossed his arms on his chest his black eyes were gone, now there were dark blue eyes. He looked almost like a human. In his eyes, I could see hurt. What does he expect? How I should react when he is acting in that way. I didn't know what to say to him so there was left only silence for some seconds.-" You almost are never at home, do you think that all my life I will be waiting for you and crying in a hugging with Hope?" Hope is our cat he is very old but also he is my best friend. I don't re

    -" You have sold me."It was the last words I could say to him. -"No I gave you him for free." He said easily but his words were now difficult to understand.I felt as my all hairs on the body stood up in one moment. My eyes became blurry suddenly I felt dizzy and couldn't hear what he is saying to me anymore, but then something changed. Quickly my vision became better, better than ever, my hearing became louder. My mind was working as clear as I remember, I knew that I can control my mind, I felt huge power on me. It made me feel good, strong, powerful. Jack was still talking, he was breathing to my face with his words. It was a knife to me but I understood everything, should it work in that way? soon I should forget everything? But I don't feel in that way as Rosemary was. I feel too good, did she feel the same? I am standing here still keeping his gaze, and feeling the connection to our minds, that power which he is sending through me, but it doesn't scare me anymore, i

    The water was burning but it relaxed me. My mascara was all over my face so I reclined my head which was so heavy from my thoughts. When Jack was at home I never did my makeup because he said that my mother was naturally beautiful. He didn't understand why other girls put something on their faces. When Jack was out Mascara was my best friend. I took red lipstick. Yoyo's present for me, I never used it it is so bright. Jack would say that red lips make girls vulgar. I covered my lips with that wonderful color.It was strange now to touch my short hair when all my life it was long. Jack loved my long hair he said that my mother had the same just a little bit darker. He said that she was pure, sweet, strong, smart, and stupid at the same. I don't know why he thought in that way but he was smiling when he talked about her, so I suppose her stupidy was cute for him. All my life I tried to be like her but I never was enough. I never felt too good, too talented too sensitive, or

    - I was almost naked, only with his jacket, he even said, I have to take off my bra because he could smell Sus on me. Firstly I hesitated, but after some seconds of his annoying gaze, I did what he said. He was acting like Jack. As a vampire, but I was so sure he wasn't one of them. I was sure he wasn't normal as well too, he was strange and more than that... But I couldn't understand his secrets, who he was, or from where he came. And from where he knows everything... for example how he knows so well how to hide from a vampire... he is acting like a not normal person like he would be crazy, and he looks like a crazy person, well I have to add, smartly scary crazy person. doesn't care what others might think about him. Only a fool could say to him that he looks a little bit stupid but I don't think anybody would have so much courage and say this directly into his eyes.He managed to keep himself calm but still serious, sometimes he looked through the mirror at me bu

    Maggy's point of view: -"Where we are going?" I asked with a voice full of worries and anxiety. was it a good idea to go with him? He didn't answer me...His eyes are all the time on the road, sometimes an old man looks at me from the mirror. His gaze travels to me more and more often. I began to feel somehow unsafe. With this feeling, my hands tried to hug me and cover my body from his eyes. Sus's dress doesn't help me at all. It shows my body more than I wish... That confidence which I had when I went to the club is far away what I feel now. What if he is some of old creeper or raper or even worse...one of a psychopath. His look is strange... Nobody is wearing that cap on nowadays, well not in his age...at least not in a city, well maybe in a village, in Texas... Hmm, how psychopath looks? I heard that they look like normal people, maybe one of those quiet persons... You know, those men with glasses and a kind smile, who are slim, and not physically st

    Maria's point of view:-"I can't believe she did that. It is officially, Maggie went crazy." I watched her back, she even didn't turn around, not for a glance, she just left so easily. Her friends don't matter to her at all. I am not surprised, she is selfish, all the time was in that way.She was hiding a vampire and we still suggested our help... Especially YoYo. And what she did? she ran away like a coward. She could have stayed, I would have convinced grandma to let her stay, and it seems... after Baba heard Maggie's mother's name, her attitude changed so quickly. Baba knew Maggies's mother. It is so clear. I'm so curious about their prehistory. But it is not time for tales...I looked at YoYo, he was all frozen, angry, with so many emotions mixed in his face. His hand brushed his black hair like he was tired or unhappy because Maggie never listens to him. Sometimes I think this is the reason why he is so in love with her. But when I arguing with him h

    After 16 years: Maggie's point of view: -"We don't have time for this, he is fast I already can sense him. We must go, now." Stranger's voice sounded authorial but also with a fear... does he afraid of Jack? Of course, he does. Who wouldn't? Even if he sounds worried and still his voice sends chills down my skin. I looked at an old man, he went off from his shadows through YoYo and stopped near me with Baba. finally, I could see his face. His eyes were directed to me if nobody would exist anymore, not even time or people, just me and an old man. He had a beard of two weeks and grey hair, he looked like 60 years old and still he was very handsome. He wasn't tall or very muscular, but his body looked strong, even if it was hidden by a suit, I still felt, he wasn't weak. -"You better go home, old man." YoYo threatened, he took from his sleeve a knife, it was long, almost like a sword. How the hell he carried it all the time there? And why he carries a knif

    After 16 years: Maggie's point of view: -"What? this is....it...it is nothing like that." I was struggling with my words and thoughts, he has that power... to shut me up. My cheeks began to burn. YoYo is talking like a jealous boyfriend, what is wrong with him he began to act so weirdly lately. Sus is his sister, not me." and about what werewolf are you talking this isn't funny YoYo, it is no time to make fun of me." I felt irritated. I know that my world can look funny for him but it is not my fault I grew with a vampire. It is not a joke for me. Yoyo came nearer me his hands touched my cheek. His dark eyes tried to read my mind even without vampires abilities. He is good at reading people's soles and thoughts. -"That man... He sighed." A blond, arrogant, smartass punk," he began and I raised my one eyebrow. Yes, Manny, he left not a very good first impression, but why he is talking about him now? he isn't involved all in this mess? he is just angry be

    - " Long, long time ago, when there weren't cars, phones or electricity, in the world there was a land and it was a very dark place to live." Sniff, sniff, she breathed her watering nose. Lilliana brushed her tears with her elbow and at the exact moment, her tears were imbibed by her sweater. She smiled at Maggie in pretending that she isn't sad at all. Was she sad because of me? I lowered my body under her balcony I had to hear her voice. For almost three weeks I didn't see her. It is harder than I thought: to keep my distance away from her. Her skin was so pale. She had circles under her eyes I think she lost some weight too. And still, she is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. But if I have to keep my distance in saving her life I will do it, no matter what pain it costs for me. " There wasn't much food, winters were cold and long, summers were hot and dry. There were more hungry mouths than the land could feed them. Do you know why the world became so dark

    This was difficult. I didn't like this new feeling, again. The feeling of heavily. I took one more step away from my Lilliana. One step away from worth to be hers. I watched Vince's face, he was so serious. He didn't know where we were going and what he must do for me. But he definitely suspected that this job won't be clean. I'm curious how strong he hates me? Now he is addicted because of my poison. I noticed how he pressed a wheel in trying not to show me how bad were shaking his hands. I can feel how his soul is calling me. He wants my poisons but he is strong and still doesn't beg me to bite him. I'm curious how strong he can keep... But he will never be as before and he knows that even if he can't understand the power which is keeping to listen to me, to serve me. His all life changed, he hasn't his life anymore. It belongs to me. He can't talk, he hasn't a tongue. And of course, it is also my fault. I never thought that I will

    Before 16 yearsJack point of view:Bang! Vince's doors almost broke when I closed them angrily behind my back. I was breathing hard as if I had a marathon, but I wasn't tired. I was furry. How she can act so calm when she sees a death standing by her side. How could I think that I can save her when I am the most dangerous thing for her. How I could think that she can save me.Vince's eyes grew wide when he saw my dark face covered with blood. I took off my black hoody and showed myself to him.- " I need you" Vince, I breathed heavily the words with a husky tone. But I didn't say his name loudly. It sounded more in my head than from my mouth. And I didn't like the way I heard my voice in my mind... Like asking for help, and not as an order.My voice calmed him from the view of my dirty clothes and face. The master's orders are more important than his confusion or his fear of what is happening. Of what happened to me and what is waiting

And still, if she would say his name it would be easier to find him and kill him but she doesn't talk about him and blames me for not talking.-"You were saying that you felt different from others. I can't understand. You are human. " She doesn't know what curse of mine made me change into "different" not only physically but also and mentally, I lost all my feelings, I lost almost all memories of how to feel. She sat on her sofa again and put her legs on it too in making her feel more comfortable. I watched all her moves and her dress made to see me more than I should. She has beautiful legs and my demons began to play with my venom. I turned my face in another direction.-"You wouldn't understand."
