"P-put m-me down Nuke!" I screamed over Luke's shoulder as he carried me down the street to my house. Honestly, I felt like I was about to throw up.
"Shut up Katerina! It's two in the morning and people are sleeping!" he whisper-yelled at me. For some reason I didn't quite hear him.
It was strange how Luke was way more sober than I was at the moment, but then again, this was the first time that I had ever gotten drunk. But I wouldn't say I was wasted. I could think slightly properly, and I understood everything that was going on. The only thing was that I was dizzy, nauseous, unable to walk and my words were uncontrollable...that's normal right?

KATERINAJared and I decided to go to the mall after school just to spend some time together since he was still upset about the whole Haydon and Evangeline thing. I wasn't convinced that he loved her though...He told me he didn't and now he tells me he does? There was something that he was hiding. Something about Haydon. "How do you think I would look wearing this?" Jared asked while he tried on some nerdy looking glasses. We were standing in a small clothing shop called Geeky G. I looked up from cell phone and grinned, "You look like a nerd!" He winked and gave a toothy smile. "A hot nerd, though right?"

HAYDONShould I call her? That was the only thing going through my mind. I didn't have her number, but I was sure someone I knew did. Katerina had told me on Wednesday that we could be friends and today was Friday- fight day. I never got to speak to her a lot yesterday or today because we were busy with the last section of work. The only thing we said to each other was hi and bye... Not that I was complaining. I should be grateful that I got to hear her voice. It's hard to imagine I tried to make her hate and ignore me. Even though that may still be an option... I just couldn't. I needed to be near her... Always. I had a feeling that she was actually my-Suddenly my phone rang and deep inside I was hoping that it would miraculously be Katerina- even though I doubted that she had my number. I picked up the touch screen phone and read the caller ID...but it was only Evangeline. Slowly I dragged my finger from

KATERINABlood. Blood everywhere. I was so badly beaten that I could hardly even stand up. I wasn't angry though. Haydon was too good of a fighter for me and he wasn't even angry or in a state of lost control yet and I could see that he wasn't even trying to hurt me at all. He was holding back and being his own kind if 'gentle' on me. But his version of gentle was still dangerous. He was a lion and I was a tiny mouse compared to him.I bent myself over and started coughing up blood onto the white ring and then slowly I looked up to see Haydon with a regretful face and sadness written all over it. But why? Why did he look so hurt? I was bleeding not him. I was the one hurt, so why did he look like I was stabbing him with each limp, cough and wince. My head throbb

KATERINA"Where are we going to Haydon?" I asked as we drove to who-knows-where?Haydon and I walked to Jeremy's house and borrowed Luke's car. By walked I mean that Haydon forcefully put me on his back and ran to Jeremy's house because someone- not naming names- broke a few of my bones."Katerina, can you be patient? Why don't you pass me one of Luke's shirts on the back seat?”I looked at Haydon and realised the he was still not wearing a shirt so there were tiny blood droplets decorating his bear skin. I leaned over to the back seat and grabbed a black shirt then handed it to him and to my disappointment, as we reached the traffic light, he put it over himself, hiding his bare skin.

KATERINA"Hello?" I called out awkwardly as I knocked on the door. My palms were all sweaty from nerves. Why did I think of this again? Oh yes because I had no other choice!The door opened and light flooded onto the steps of the porch."Katerina?" I looked up to see a very confused looking Brian. Here goes nothing. "Um is Haydon here?" I asked looking at my hands and then back at his eyes. Soon a mischievous look appeared on his face. "Yes, your boyfriend is here."Immediately a dark blush appeared on my face.

KATERINA"Hey, did you guys hear about the epic party at Evangeline's house?" It was Monday and the news had spread about the party that was so epic that no one could remember it, well no one except Haydon and me. It was as though we were simply just ghosts who snuck in and out. I was on my way to pack my bags for my next few classes, when I was stopped by Haydon who looked beyond pissed off. His usually hazel eyes were starting to form red droplets like food colouring being dropped into a bowl of chocolate cake batter, until both his eyes were the shade of blood. "What's wrong Haydon?" I asked genuinely concerned, and also, trying to tell him that there were people around who could possibly notice his changing e

KATERINA"Would you hurry it up in there?" Haydon yelled from my room as I tied my shoelaces in the bathroom. "Can you calm down; I'm almost done Haydon!" I yelled back. Haydon had been taking me to school for the past week and few days. He would wake me up really early in the morning- because apparently, I took one million years to get done- and then walk me to school. I walked out of the bathroom in my black crop top and white high waisted jeans. "I'm done!" I Said. "Fina- wow. You look...wow." he said looking me up and down with his red eyes. "I knew the top was too short. I'll go change it." I said but just as I was about to turn towards the cupboard

KATERINACOLD. I could only feel coolness as I walked toward the body on the edge of the forest. The same forest where Jeremy had almost tried to kill me. The same forest which Haydon and I snuck through every Friday to fight at the arena. But this time the air here was cold and tense. Goosebumps started to form on my icy, dry skin. My feet were sore and bare and bleeding from the small stones and dry sand on the ground. The body that was there was unmoving, and I couldn't make out who it was because of the darkness surrounding me. I don't know what it was, but I was being drawn to that lonely body on the ground. "Hello...Who are you?" I asked as if the body would miraculously wake up and a

KATERINAThe waiting room was crowded, filled with the presence of my friends and family as we all waited patiently for my brother’s results. Haydon was sitting next to me, clutching my shaking hand while my father had my mother in a tight embrace. Today was the worst day of our lives, but it was also the best. Today we had finally changed history, and it was all thanks to my mother. She was eleven steps ahead of Death, who was only ten steps away from us. She truly was the greatest hunter to have ever lived.After a few hours, the nurse had come out and told us that Dylan was going to be fine. Jasmine, who had been crying with Lucy and Nathan cried even harder. Things were going to be okay, we were all going to be okay. Haydon smiled at me, and I smiled back.“Thank you, for trying to save me.” He said.
Vampires and Vampire Hunters 40: Wildcard
KATERINA“Why mom, why!” I cried out, holding the silver box which had now regained its shape, and contained my mother who had, just moments ago began to fake into dust particles and enter into the box. Elizabeth was no longer a threat, and Haydon and I were free. It was all thanks to my mother’s sacrifice. By now the Veneziano’s were awake with tears streaming down their faces. Death was still in the centre of the pentagram, clutching the silver box, which we now had discovered, was a mere replica. He opened it, looked inside, and threw it on the floor.He then stormed up to where we were hovering over the box and took it from me. He tried to throw it on the floor, but Haydon grabbed his hands before he could. Death looked up at him and snarled which made Haydon whimper. He was still treating Haydon like the abusive man he always was, but I couldn&

KATERINABy now we were all tied up, all except for Dylan who was still not awake yet and his skin was beginning to turn a shade of blue. At this rate, he would be dead in a few hours.“What do you want from us?” I yelled out, my eyes still on my brother.Bianca, who was towering over me smirked and kicked me in the face.“Sir, Dylan Connors has a question.” She said, taking my face and inspecting the blood on my face.“I love seeing you bleed Katerina.” She whispered. This made Haydon growl and bare his teeth at her.“Don’t touch her-““Bianca, leave those two al
Vampires and Vampire Hunters 38: Traitors
KATERINAThe air in the house was cold and tense. The rooms were dark, and the home I had once felt comfortable in, was now uncomfortable and dreary. “Death?” my mother called out. She was standing in front, holding a gun in her hand which she had kept in the boot of her car. It was more a sort of anchor than anything else. Hunter weapons did not work on a vampire as rare as Death.The halls were silent, save for the clicking of our careful steps and heavy breathing. Mr and Mrs Veneziano seemed to know what they were doing, so did my parents. All we needed to do, was make sure we did exactly as we were told. Of course Haydon and I were not known for such things, and secretly, Haydon had decided to think up his own plan, and I did the same, neither one of us uttering our plan to one another or to our parents. B
Vampires and Vampire Hunters 37: Damsel in distress
KATERINAWe had gotten on the first available flight, rushed, panicked and panting. The phone call my mother had received was one fatal call, the call from Death. Apparently, my parents had not been secretive enough, and he had caught on to their plan. He was, at the moment, holding my brother, along with Jeremy and the boys hostage. Tonight, was the night he was convinced that he would achieve his goal. He knew that he had power over us, and we could bend to his will.The flight was once again, long and uncomfortable and distress was evident on Haydon’s parent’s faces as well as my own.“I just don’t understand how he figured out that we knew. How the hell could he have known. We showed no evidence whatsoever that we knew about his real plan
Vampires and Vampire Hunters 36: Blood sacrifice
KATERINADestroy the remains. Destroy the damn remains.Haydon and I might as well have just broken up because there was no way in hell, that we’d be able to, firstly take the remains away from Death, and secondly, destroy them when they were imbued in dark magic.“That’s why we tried to keep you two apart when we started suspecting. We wanted to figure out how to prevent the prophesy. But clearly you two had to start liking each other and ruin our plans. Honestly Katerina, first underground fights and now this.”And once again, I was busted.“How did you know?”My father smirked and shook his head, “Your brother is an awful liar, Dylan Connors.”
Vampires and Vampire Hunters 35: The truth
KATERINAWe sat in the lounge beside a fire. It had gotten colder now, so much so, that I found my self near Haydon, clinging to him for dear life while receiving some serious glances from my mother. Haydon’s parents were clearly way more accepting of our relationship than mine were at this point.“So, let me start,” Mr Veneziano said. “It all began the day Death resurrected Haydon. For something needing so much of power, there are always serious consequences. The first, was the death of his wife, Elisabeth.” He then paused, clearing his throat, and the continued. “The second, and most dangerous consequence, was a prophecy. It was a prophecy fortold by the oracle, Cecilia. The day Haydon was resurrected, she rushed here and immediately told us what she has foreseen. That day, I had kicked her out of this house, banishing her from ever se
Vampires and Vampire Hunters 34: Surprise
KATERINAWe sat in the dining room which was as grand as anything I had ever seen. The beautiful mahogany table was decorated with a white silk cloth which had intricate blue petals embroidered in. The table was filled with many different types of food which was odd, since Haydon and his parents did not eat any food, instead, they sat with wine glasses filled with blood on the table. It had been exactly five minutes of the four of us staring at each other awkwardly, when finally, Haydon broke the silence. “Is there a reason that we are waiting and staring at each other?”Mr Haydon spoke, never lifting his eyes from me, “Yes, we are waiting for a few guests. They should be here, right about-“Knock. Knock. Knock.
Vampires and Vampire Hunters 33: First encounter
KATERINAWe arrived in Italy after a long, uncomfortable flight. I hadn’t been able to sleep at all as I though about what Haydon’s father’s reaction would be to me and began to mentally prepare myself for rejection. Italy was quite beautiful this time of the year, and the weather was warm enough to allow me to remove my thick jacket soon after we arrived at the airport. After we had gathered our luggage, Haydon rented us a car and we began driving. In all honesty, I paid less attention to the road, people and homes which passed us, and more attention to my shaking hands.“Katerina, calm down please. You have nothing to fear, I will be beside you the entire time, okay?”His words, meant to be reassuring, did nothing to get me to calm down. If
