“I’m not afraid of you,” I whispered as he pressed himself against me, running a hand down the side of my face.

“Are you sure, because your heart says otherwise.” A twinkling of amusement lingered in his eyes, and running his tongue across his fangs, he smiled. “You people see us as celebrities, dazzling creatures of the night. In reality, we are so much more.”

Curse of the Spotlight

I willed myself to remain calm as I regarded Alexander with a frightened stare. It wasn’t some sort of ploy, either; I was legitimately afraid of him right now.


That hungry stare was fixed upon me as if he was a wolf looking at a lamb lost in the woods. I took several breaths, my chest heaving a bit before I refocused. As much as I wanted this chair to completely suck me in, I didn’t know any such magic yet. Bummer. 


“Why are you looking at me like that?” I finally asked, then gently reached up to trace the bite on my neck.


Hopefully, that would deter him, but the ‘please don’t bite me’ card could only work for so long. He never seemed interested in biting me before, anyway, but that probably didn’t matter here. He broke his stare briefly, his eyes flickering down to stare at the mark. Then, I saw him roll his eyes and heard him give a low growl.
