I stretched and rolled to my side before I realized my bed felt different. My eyes cracked open, and I instantly sat up, becoming a little dizzy from the

sudden movement.

I couldn't look away from the woman and man staring at me, my eyes looking from one to the other.

The man wore a vampire General's uniform and I had a strong feeling he was the one who'd been trying to see into my mind. His hair was a dusty blonde skimmed his ears and his red eyes narrowed the more I stared at him. He looked to be over six feet.

My eyes drifted to the woman. Surprisingly, she was even taller than he was. I was stunned by her beauty.

Her black hair was bone straight and fell below her bottom. Her skin looked milky white, almost as white as the dress she wore, but it was her red eyes that did it for me. They were completely red—pupils, irises, and sclera. A chill went down my spine as she smiled at me and flashed her pointy fangs.
