TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE You can't walk away from love
Chapter 10Nicholas It was torture seeing that crooked smile again. Why couldn't he just disappear forever?! "Are you following me?!" I glared at him."Come on, that's no way to greet your brother now, is it?" He said, with that constant slyness apparent in his voice. "Brother?!" Clara asked, obviously shocked. "Yes sweetheart, I'm his one and only brother, Kevin Young" he said, courtesying like he had even an ounce of self respect, "and you must be….? He asked, trying to get Clara's hand."None of your business," I said, stopping his hand from going any further. "What are you doing here?" I asked. "It's a club Nic, I came to have fun," he replied like I was stupid for even asking such a question. But that was not what I meant, and he knew that. Last I heard he was in Europe, tending to his numerous whores and being the perfect sinister vampire, now he was here, pretending that we were the perfect family. Sure he was just a 100 years old, but that was not an excuse for his e
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE I met his brother
Chapter 11Clara"How was the date? Was it as perfect as you imagined or was he a total mess?" Lydia asked. Apparently she was staying awake just for me, probably to make sure that I wasn't dead or anything. "I met his brother," I simply stated. "I'm confused… Was it a double date or did he already introduce you to his family?" She queried. "Well with the way things are going, I'm convinced I might eventually meet all of them soon enough," I told her. "What do you mean?" She asked. "What I mean is that we always end up running into a member of his seemingly endless family and they always find a way to make our already volatile relationship more complicated," I replied. "So how many family members have you met so far?" She asked with a chuckle. "Well just two actually, but that's more than enough for me," I said. "Girl you're joking, how come you're calling just two family members endlessly long?!" She exclaimed. "Well I'm sure there will be much more than that…. But you wou
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE The summoning
Chapter 12 ClaraIt has been 3 days since I have seen or heard from Nicholas. After our complicated dinner date and that awful nightmare I have not so much as received a call from him. Nothing at all, no explanation, no apology, no greeting, nothing. I wanted to be strong and say it didn't affect me, that I didn't care, but it did, much more than I can admit to. I thought about him every single second that I wasn't deliberately keeping my mind busy. I could not concentrate in class. Every lecture I attended felt like a complete waste of time when I could not be with him. I wondered why he hadn't called me back yet. It was so strange. A few days ago he was confessing his undying love for me and now he couldn't even care to know if I was alright. Sure we didn't exactly part ways in the best of terms, but we were having a very good time before his brother came and made it very awkward. I was getting to know him a little behind all his witty remarks and his huge ego. I was starting
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE I love you Clara
Chapter 13Clara"Well because of Nicholas," He answered. That just plunged me into the depths of more confusion. "I don't understand you Steven, please what is going on?" I asked. "I'm not in the place to explain that to you, miss, when we get to the mansion I'm sure Kevin can explain it better," he said. Kevin again! Never in a million worlds did I think that Kevin would want to explain anything to me. Heck I didn't even think that he would have a reason to speak to me. Now here I was driving to go meet him, well Steven was actually the one doing the driving but still I was in the car and it was heading to the mansion where I was supposed to go talk to him so it's kind of the same thing. The drive to the mansion was super weird and surprisingly longer than I imagined. It was this same distance that Lydia and I walked past the other night, but somehow the journey seemed farther now in this vehicle. Sure I know that it was because of the awkward environment, still me knowing di
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE The woman I love
NicholasI was a fool to starve myself, to trick myself into believing that I really wanted to die. At the end of the day, it was the very same person that my heart was bleeding for, that came to my rescue. Clara Shawn saved my life and for that I was eternally indebted to her. She looked so beautiful as she slept. What was she thinking anyway? Offering herself like that to me, I could have killed her. Gosh! I could have killed her, I don't know how I stopped myself from draining all her blood but I did. I was this close to taking too much but something in me reminded me that this was the woman I was in love with. Gosh I was going to give Kevin an earful! Why did he bring her to me?! What was he thinking?! I was trying to hide away from her, I was too ashamed to face her after the other night. I blamed myself for destroying what was supposed to be a perfect date. I blamed myself for not being able to share my problems with her. I blamed myself for being a vampire. I blamed myself
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE It's Okay Nicholas
Chapter 15ClaraI got tired of waiting for him so I let my heart lead me to go find him. When he said family meeting I knew it was going to be something serious from the look on his face, but I never envisioned it to be something like this. Everyone was staring at me like I was some strange being, even Kevin gave me a weird look and I felt like saying "man you practically invited me here, why are you acting like you don't even know me," but I didn't, there were so many scary faces around that the only person that I could look at for more than 5 seconds was Nicholas. "Okay everyone this is Clara Shawn, Clara, this is my family, you've already met Kevin and father, this is Elizabeth my sister, Luka my best friend, that is aunt Cherry, Uncle Alberto you already know, and there is Uncle Matthew, whom you can totally ignore," he said."Nice to meet you all," I told them gently. Somehow he knew I was nervous but he didn't want me to be, so he squeezed my hand tightly and it gave me a ce
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE Please take care of yourself
Chapter 16It seemed like we were perfect for each other only in our little bubble, but once we stepped out of it, we were faced with overwhelming obstacles. I walked out and Steven was already by the car. It was amazing how he always knew that it was time to get away. Maybe he used that super hearing vampire thing I read about a lot, yeah, that must be it. "Take me home Steven," I told him. "Okay miss Clara," he said as he got into the car. I didn't look back. I didn't want to change my mind and decide to stand my ground with his family. I didn't want to put him in a situation where he had to choose between me and his family.It looked like he had a strained relationship with some of his family members, if not all. It wouldn't be nice if I made things worse instead of making things better. I could not bear to see how much I hurt him, it was better this way. I wasn't angry with him or his family… okay maybe I am getting to dislike that Uncle Matthew guy, but apart from that it w
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE No one wants to hear a story Matthew
Chapter 17Nicholas"Matthew, there's no polite way to ask this so I'm just going to be honest with you, how do you want to die?" I asked. "Well in the arms of a pretty woman wouldn't be bad, maybe I'll get your little play thing to attend to me too," he said with a stupid smirk. "Be careful what you wish for Matthew," I told him and I wasn't joking. He was pushing me to the wall and there was practically nowhere else to go to. There was no telling what I could do from here. If he had a death wish then he was playing his cards right for a quick one. I heard beheading a vampire would do the trick, I have never seen it being done but I know it was how Luka's family was wiped out by the other vampire family they went to war with."Matthew, why were you so rash to the girl?" Aunt Cherry asked. I didn't really care about his reasons. They didn't matter a bit to me. All I cared about were his actions and his actions drove Clara away and that was the only truth here. "I have a story t

TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE Because I have you
Chapter 21NicholasAs we walked to see every one, hand in hand, there was a certain kind of peace that I felt. This was my woman and I was proud to call her mine. I was proud to show her to the world and the first people who could get that privilege were my family. When I brought her in yesterday every single one of them were on edge. I got to find out that nobody knew of Matthew's intentions to do something so drastic, so terrible. Sure, Henry knew when he went out but he didn't know that he was going out with the intentions of murdering Clara. But I was afraid that even if he had known he wouldn't have done much to stop him. Matthew was a very powerful vampire, much older than Henry for sure, but he wasn't the head of the family, even though he wanted to. Henry could be ruthless sometimes but he had the qualities of a leader and he was the one that turned most of us. The family was already gathered in the sitting room, waiting for us. "Oh dear, you gave me a heart attack, I'm
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE Your wish is my command baby
Chapter 20ClaraI woke up in a bed that was not mine. I felt good, like I have never felt before. There was a bandage on my head and over where I remember Matthew stabbed me, but I felt no pain. I felt perfectly fine. I looked around and discovered that I was in Nicholas's room. How did I get here? Just then the door opened and Nicholas stepped in. He looked exhausted but as handsome as always. I had so many questions to ask him but I planned on asking them one at a time. "Hello baby, how are you feeling?" He asked, sitting down beside me. "Perfectly alright," I told him. "It must be the vampire blood working, you almost died and I had to do what I vowed never to do," he said. "And what's that?" I asked. "Give you my blood, with my blood now in your system you would become a vampire if you ever died, and I don't want you to be like me," he said. I knew he was being serious. I have never imagined myself as a vampire but I didn't want to do that now. I didn't know if I would b

Chapter 19Clara"So where are you off to now?" I asked Lydia. "I was invited to this party on campus and it promises to be lit. You can come too, maybe that would make you feel better," she suggested. "There's no way I'm going to another party with you, it is the party you dragged me into that's putting me in this emotional trauma!" I groaned. "Well I didn't make you fall hopelessly in love, you can thank Nicholas for that," she said. "Ugh! I hate you!" I exclaimed. "You wish darling, you wish!" She said, then she seemed to have a change of heart and came closer to me, "was it that bad?" She asked. If only she knew half of it! I still haven't told her that I was falling in love with a vampire but still it was getting harder to tell her about my feelings without being completely honest with her."Yes it was, it was terrible!" I groaned. "Why? What did his family have against you?" She asked. "Well nothing really, apart from the fact that I'm human," I said. "What do you mean
TAINTED BY THE VAMPIRE Hunter Cage
Chapter 18Nicholas It wasn't long before I found myself at the door of Hunter Cage, the only human friend who could bear to be with me despite my numerous strange idiosyncrasies. Luckily for me he wasn't having a party tonight, so he must be alone. He was someone that you called a real party planner. It was either he was throwing the most expensive party or he was attending one. He wasn't your typical college student though. He knew where he was going and still found time to hit his books hard and pass with outstanding results. He was from a very wealthy home but he didn't always show it, unless when it was time to party. Many people would say he was a spoiled rich kid but that was because they didn't know him but loved to simply put him in the status quo. He was smart, kind and a real gentleman. He was actually the only friend that I could cope with. We met when I took a stroll to the campus and stumbled upon him and a few of his friends arguing about history. Being 200 years o
