"I'm not scared I'm just shocked." I tried to reassure him. He stared at me, studying me. Trying to see if there were any lies hanging in my words. He must've not expected this kind of reaction out of me. "Come closer then," he suddenly asked. "W-what? Why?" "If you say that you're not scared you shouldn't have any trouble with approaching me." I looked at him suspiciously. Was this a trap? Would he completely devour me? I didn't have any problem with approaching him but I never know what kind of actions he might do. "You're not gonna eat me alive aren't you?" He chuckled a little bit showing me that damn sexy smirk again. "Come and find out." Amaya Wilson is a twenty-five-year-old librarian. Her life will forever change when she meets an old book laying on her bed. She will soon learn that her destiny is to be the chosen one and to protect the small notebook in order to take the power it holds for herself before the wrong hands take possession of it instead. Damon Cullen is a fallen vampire whose destiny is to be the protector of the sacred book. He's gone through generations of chosen ones without breaking his facade. However, what happens when it's Amaya's turn to be the chosen one. Will he let his feeling get the best of him or will he keep his professional facade?

Damon was packing my bags for me getting ready for our unexpected trip to Miami where this person was supposed to help bring my powers. When Damon had announced this at the restaurant I thought this was some sick joke. I had to leave Destiny in the middle of our dinner together. I mean who plans a spontaneous trip to another country like that? "Listen, Maya, we're in even more danger every second we lose. We can't wait anymore. The supernatural know about you and they're already out for the sacred book. You need to get your powers to protect it or else you're going to die," he answered obviously getting frustrated that I wasn't getting his point. I understood but why couldn't we just continue our training sessions? "Our flight is scheduled for 7 pm tonight we don't have much time." My parents weren't at home. If I leave now I wouldn't have the chance to
Amaya Today I was going out to dinner with Destiny. We haven't seen each other for a while and it would be good to take my mind off things. I haven't seen Damon since yesterday night and I wasn't eager to. He managed to hurt my feelings a little bit and I wasn't proud. I was letting him in too many times. Not to mention that there was something going on between me and Ryan. I was starting to like him sincerely and wanted to see where it would lead us to. I hoped in my car and entered the address of the restaurant in my GPS. While I was driving, I received a call from Ryan. He asked me if I was free next Saturday to go on another date. I hadn't planned anything that day so I happily accepted. I soon arrived at the restaurant that Destiny picked out. It was a fancy one located in the heart of downtown. Destiny had texted me earlier that she was already there so I found her seated in a booth at the far back of the room. "Hey girl," I said seating myself. Destiny was very attractive. H
Damon I settled myself comfortably on the branches of the tree with a clear view of Maya's room. She was still in the same position that I left her in. With her perfect black curls spread out and her legs dangling out of the bed. Don't get me wrong, Amaya was a very attractive human being but I shouldn't have gotten that intimate with her. Those soft lips were so addicting though. One taste and I couldn't get enough. I almost wasn't able to stop myself but I knew I had to for her own sake. Vampires can see other people's emotions but they cannot feel them. We are naturally emotionless creatures that don't feel things. That's why vampires are one of the most dangerous creatures you could meet because they're completely merciless. The only emotion they're able to feel is lust. I have a few that I can feel specifically because I'm cursed to be the protector but others couldn't. For example the hurt I was able to feel when Maya assumed I was the
Amaya The whole ride back I couldn't help but think about what I saw regardless of Damon's instructions not to worry about it. I was constantly on edge keeping a look out the window scared that the shapeshifter or whatever it was would jump on the car and attack us. Fortunately, none of that happened even though I was sure that Damon was still keeping an eye on us. Sometimes I wondered where he situated himself in order to guard me. He for sure wasn't inside the car nor on top so where was he. That remained a mystery for a while. Ryan soon pulled up to my house. Before leaving his car I turned towards him and offered him a smile. "I had fun tonight," I said. "I hope you did. Are you still interested in going on another date with me?" he cutely asked. I was slowly getting more and more comfortable around this guy every day. He seemed like a very genuine guy the kind who doesn't bring any problems with them. That's exactly what I needed
Amaya I had finished getting dressed and was now patiently waiting for Ryan to come. I told my mom that I was going out with Destiny so she could let me leave. I also called Destiny to tell her to cover for me if ever my mom decided to call her. Damon hasn't come back to bother me and I was glad. He was so annoying sometimes I just couldn't deal with him. As I was scrolling through my feed, I noticed a spark of light flash through my window. I went to check what it was and I saw a car parking on our driveway meaning Ryan had finally arrived. I quickly grabbed my purse and ran downstairs to open the door for him. When he rang the doorbell, I waited at least ten seconds to make sure he didn't get the impression that I was waiting for him at the door. "Hi." I greeted him with a smile. "Hey." I saw his eyes quickly roam through my body making me a little more nervous. "You look beautiful," he complimented. If I were white, I would
Amaya All week long Damon forced me to do training after my shifts at the library. He would always either sit down on a log and observe me or do circles around me. He would always tell me to close my eyes and believe. Believe what? I seriously didn't understand where he was trying to come from. I haven't really seen him apart from my supposed to be training either. He would drop me off at my house and leave. I had a good feeling that he would most likely stay near me in order to keep watch of potential danger while I was sleeping. How boring his life should be, or should I say after-life. It was now Saturday and I took the day off today because I didn't feel like doing a shift. Also because I have my date with Ryan today. We've agreed that he would pick me up around seven o'clock tonight. It was now almost noon and I still didn't know what to wear. I haven't gone out on a date for so long that all of the dresses I had for nice occasio
AmayaHe stood in all of his glory in front of me, frowning down at me while I tried to regain my composure. I had a feeling that he wouldn't quite appreciate that I thought he was here to hurt me. On the other note, why is he here and how did he know where I was located?"H-hey," I said when I faced him."Why are you so nervous?" he asked me. I somehow didn't want to admit the truth out of embarrassment of my paranoia."W-what, me nervous? That's ridiculous." Okay, I could've made my lie a little more believable than that because he sure didn't buy that at all."You thought I was another shapeshifter huh," he stated making me cautiously nod.
Amaya My shift was almost over. Thank God. Today was uneventful except for when this old lady screamed at me because I told her that she was owing to the library a book she lost. She made a big deal out of it when it wasn't even my fault. As I was placing books on the shelf, I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder making me divert my attention to this person. It was a man who seemed familiar but I couldn't quite remember where I'd met him. "Hey, could you tell me where-" he stopped mid-sentence when I turned my head towards him. His lips formed a small smile upon seeing me. "It's you again." I couldn't seem to remember where I'd met this person before. As if sensing my confusion, he introduced himself.
AmayaMy sleep had been interrupted by the sound of my phone ringing. Lazily grabbing it, the caller ID showed that Giselle my editor was calling. I groaned but still answered."Do you know what time it is?" I groaned out."What do you mean? It's one in the afternoon," she stated. I took a quick glance at the clock laid on my nightstand. It was indeed one in the afternoon. Shit, I must've overslept."Yeah sorry. So why did you call?""About that, there's been a change of plans. Instead of three months, you'll have to hand in your work in two.""Oh okay that's not a problem," I replied even though this would make me have to speed up my writing pace."Perfect, I'll see you soon then." We said our quick goodbyes and hang up.I slowly lifted my legs out of the bed while yawning. I suddenly remembered the events of last night and took a quick glance towards my couch.He wasn't there anymore.Must've gotten tired of my snoring and left during the night.I felt my stomach growl and decided to
~~~AmayaShit. I woke up today thinking that I'll be able to have a full day of relaxation but that's unfortunately not the case. When I opened my phone to check the notifications I got during the night. I saw the reminder that the due date to send in my book to my editor was today. Dammit, I'm not even close to finishing this book.I suddenly regret the choice I made to use up a whole night's worth of work only to rewatch the whole Hunger Games series even though I've already watched it.I'm really not the one to respect due dates or be on time for anything. If you ask all of my teachers from high school, they would confirm it in a heartbeat.It's
