Hello Snowflake

"They told me you had her tortured and murdered," I said, equally angry, though I was sure there was no twinkling darkness coming off my hair.

The vampire queen gasped and pressed a hand to her chest in mock sarcasm. "They what? I could never murder my sister."

She was a big fat liar. I knew it. Sensed it.

Pushing down my fears, I changed the subject. "Are you saying you were in the right? You deserve the power?"

I didn't add that Kenmei and Professor Pops both told me they were her hunters at one time and that I knew they left her.

Immediately a small flutter danced in my belly.

Was that where Christopher went?

Professor Pops and Kenmei never told me what they did to break free of her.

Was it just a matter of walking away, or was more required? I thought about the bear Christopher carved and how excited he was when I gave it to him.
