Chapter 61

Somewhere in the back of my mind I may have thought of Alexis as a love interest but not anymore. He was seriously scaring me, and I hadn't even asked him the questions I needed to ask!

He and the female Vampire conferred without speaking. She glanced at me periodically, but Alexis did not.

They talked for so long that I had time to examine my surroundings. Somehow I didn't think that I was in a room. I kept rubbing the toe of my shoe on the floor to see if it was solid and it was, but the room wasn't quite real. I didn't understand how it could be that way.

My neck began to prickle, and another Vampire materialized in the room. He was old and stooped and wore a long white robe like a monk would wear. Someone had to turn him when he was old. It seemed such a horrible thing to be trapped for all eternity in that decrepit body.
