Chapter 42 - Heart to heart

Sheila walked into the house through the front door and ended up in the living room. Daisy hid on the other side of the room behind a couch. The hair behind her neck stood up. Her heart was beating so fast that she was afraid the vampire would hear it.

She held a pistol close to her chest and closed her eyes as she listened to Sheila's footsteps draw closer and closer. Suddenly the sound of the footsteps stopped. Daisy swallowed hard and took a look. She saw Sheila standing still with an emotionless and lifeless gaze in her eyes staring into space.

Daisy looked away and tightened her hold on the gun. She took a deep breath and to her horror, the couch suddenly went flying out the window. Daisy screamed and pointed her gun at Sheila who just looked at her with cold eyes. Daisy took out the safety and was shaking so much that she could barely aim.
