Chapter 5

In these last few days, all I believed was down the drain. Things that I thought didn't exist for a long time were as real as the sun and the moon. On top of that, I'm living with them! What would you do in my place?

- Time to wake up, Sleeping Beauty !!!

I woke up today with Luci calling me. It looks like the sun has already set. Well, whatever God wants.

Today my training with Douglas begins. To tell you the truth, I don't know what to expect from these trainings, and what did he mean by "transformations"? I can't wait to find out ... There are so many new things to learn. Wait, if there are vampires, werewolves, witches ... What else is there? My God, what did I get into?

Luci said that my training will be outdoors. I would like to know why. I'm even afraid to ask. Anyway, here I am, going to find the most moody vampire I have ever met; of course, considering I only met ... Five vampires so far, I think that's a good number. Are others like that too?

- You are late. - As soon as I arrive and I already face an impatient Douglas.

- Seriously!? I didn't even notice ...

- Why are you acting like this?

- Ah, I don't know, maybe it's because you didn't act differently! You made a point of irritating me from the beginning, what did you expect, an apology !?

- Wow, I didn't think you stressed so easily ...

"I'm not stressed, it's you who are unbearable!"

- ... This is going to be more complicated than I thought. Can we start? We don't have all night.

- It would be over by me.

- I understand that you didn't like the way I acted before, but I didn't think you would take it personally. If we want a training that is at least bearable, I ask you to calm down and stop being so temperamental.

"Wonderful! Now, besides being stressed, I'm in a bad mood. Humpf."

- Then why don't you ask someone else to train me, since you're clearly not enjoying it?

- Because "your father" asked to train you and as I said, our skills are similar.

- I don't see how.

- July, come, I'm losing patience ...

"Now he decided to pay civilized to me, didn't he? Well, let's see who loses his head first ..."

- And what are you going to do if I don't stop?

As soon as I finish speaking, he drops me on the floor. Okay, so I didn't expect it, I admit it.

- This - he says after I knock him out.

Now he is practically lying on top of me and I incredibly liked it, we are so close that I could kiss him here and now. "Oh my God, what is this July? Pay attention!"

I saw a cynical little smile appear on his face and took it off me. Oh what anger!

- You have nothing more to say?

"Motherfucker!"

- We can start? I'm in a hurry. - I wanted to get out of that situation as soon as possible.

He broke into a winning smile and we started training. "Relax Douglas, whoever laughs last, laughs best ..."

The training was fun; of course, without taking into account that he always knocked me down. He told me about my transformations, it seems that since I am a vampire-witch-werewolf hybrid, I have many transformations to train, but I didn't understand how he could help me. All they have to do is find a witch and a werewolf, so I'd be screwed. Another thing I discovered is that I'm going to have to learn to activate my vampire side. Now I can say "goodbye to normal life!"

Another strange thing that happened to me today was that I got a gift from Douglas. Don't get too excited, it was just an old book with a leather cover (even more blank). He says that it is to be my diary and that I must write what happens in my daily life as a hybrid (unique, as he says). I see this as another task and I don't like being forced to do anything! So, I'm only going to write when I know how to activate my vampire side.

I arrived in the room dead from tiredness, it was almost dawn so I decided to take a long shower and sleep.

At sunset the same thing: I wake up, I'm going to see Douglas and I'll be right back. My routine was already established and I didn't even have the right to give my opinion. At least today I'm finally going to my room. Yes, my room. Finally they fixed everything. Don't get me wrong, it's not that I didn't like the company of Clara and Luci, but I like having my corner, with no one to take care of me. So, today I am released from training. Why doesn't that cheer me up !? In the past I would give glory to God for not having to see Douglas, but today ... I think I even consider him a friend ... A friend who does everything to irritate me, of course, but still a friend. I think I learned to understand this as a joke. Who would have thought?

All I did yesterday was sleep. I had the long awaited rest and now I'm back to training.

- Today your training will be a little more different ...

- As well?

"And I thought it couldn't get any weirder."

- Today I will prepare you to activate your vampire side.

"It was taking too long ..."

- And how do you intend to do that?

"I'm going to start testing your limits." He took a bag of blood and immediately smelled it. - Come July, I know you want ...

"My God, what's going on with me? I knew this vampire story wouldn't work."

I almost attack Douglas, but there was still something preventing me ...

- Well, you are very resistant. That's it for today, let's test again tomorrow, I just hope I don't have to reach an extreme level ...

At this point I was not hearing anything, I was just thinking: "What does he expect from me? What does he mean by extreme level? How am I going to continue tomorrow? My throat is burning ..."
