All Chapters of So You Think Your Sister's a Vampire?: Chapter 431 - Chapter 440

Trina clicked a few buttons on her laptop. “I want you to listen carefully to the voice in the background.” She hit play, and Cadence and I both leaned in trying to hear.It was easy to hear the voice but impossible to decipher what the Vampire speaking was saying. His voice was low, and his tone was quiet. It sounded like a bunch of nonsense to me, but then I figured he must be speaking another language.“Play it again,” Cadence said, really straining this time. She shrugged and said, “I don’t know. Any guesses?”“We think whatever he is saying was designed to work with the reflective surfaces to open the portal. But we don’t know what it means,” Oswald explained.“Do you think it’s Gaelic?” Cadence asked.“Probably,” Job said, “but unless we can find someone who speaks it, we might not know.”“I’ve got someone on the way for th

“What time is it?” Cadence asked again.Job pointed at the clock again. “One.”I locked eyes with my sister and swallowed a lump in my throat. She asked, “What time did you say Tara got that message?”“What message?” Trina demanded. I was a little surprised Cadence hadn’t told them.“A text message from Dax,” Cadence replied, not looking away from me to answer.“Dax?” Oswald repeated loudly. “One of the guys who is trapped in the portal?” He was leaning so far forward in his chair, I could imagine it toppling over and knocking him into the table.“Yeah,” I assured him. “It was at 7:00 AM.” My sister was puzzled, so I clarified. “Our time. So 6:00 AM Central time. Every six hours?”“Oh, yeah. We are in the Eastern time zone.” Cadence shook her head. I could tell she was exhausted and not thinking as

“You don’t expect me to actually take a nap at a time like this, do you?” I asked my sister, glancing at Ashley and wondering how in the world she was sleeping again. I couldn’t imagine my mind shutting off under the circumstances.“I do,” Cadence confirmed. “What sort of use are you going to be if you can’t keep your eyes open?”The idea of Vampires rampaging our rooms while I was sleeping made me chuckle. “Do you think I could fall asleep during a Vampire attack?”I could see the other people in the room shifting their attention from me to Cadence and back again with each statement. I thought I saw a flicker of fear in Oswald’s eyes, like he thought maybe I would attack my sister. I wouldn’t.“Your reflexes will slow down if you’re not well rested, sister dear.”I shook my head. “Cadence....”“Cassidy?”I exhaled l

Brandon’s room smelled more like him now than it did this morning, or at least I thought it did. I tossed my jacket and holster on the bed and pulled his blood-stained shirt off. I hated to take off the one article of clothing that smelled so much like him, but I couldn’t keep wearing it with Christian’s blood all over it. I needed to take a shower, too, but that would have to wait until after 7:00.Most of their stuff was already packed. I just needed to gather up their toiletries and a few odds and ends Elliott, mostly, had strewn around the room. There was a half-eaten bag of Cheetos on the dresser. I unclipped it and stuck my face inside, inhaling deeply. It didn’t exactly smell like him, but his essence was there somehow. I ate one, even though I know he licks his fingers and sticks them back in the bag. I don’t exactly love Cheetos, but this one was better than most because it reminded me of him.I cleaned up the rest of their stuff,

It really didn’t matter what I wanted, though. I knew if Alex had the chance to die, he’d take it. Which sounds morbid, but he never asked to be brought back from the dead in the first place, and that was over two hundred years ago.... He was tired of living, and he’d done an awful lot of it.I took in a deep breath and headed off to Ashley’s room, messaging Tara back at the same time. Rather than repeating everything to each of them, I just told Tara to hold on a second, and I’d give her visuals once I was in Ashley’s room.Ashley was smiling for the first time since she’d gotten Jamie’s last message. She was sitting on her bed, cradling her phone, wearing one of Jamie’s lab coats, which I thought was really weird. “Hey—why... does Jamie bring that with him?”“Huh?” She looked down, like she’d forgotten she’d put it on. “Oh.” Her face went a little pink.
