Chapter 44: Lovers Witness

Lucy felt numb through all the rest of her classes. She thought back to her journey as a vampire. Everything that had happened up to that point. She felt strange. Lucy couldn’t exactly pinpoint when things had changed but clearly they had. She felt guilty and like she had betrayed her own kind. She then had to remind herself that she was no longer human. The vampires were her kind now. 

When classes had finally finished and morning would break soon, she found herself heading to Celeste’s apartment rather than her dorm. She hoped that Veronika wouldn’t worry about her. She hoped her friend would make the logical assumption to where Lucy had gone. She looked around for anyone who might be watching and knocked on the door. Celeste opened it immediately and pulled Lucy inside. 

“Are you okay?” she asked, instantly. Lucy wondered what expression she wore on her face to make Celeste ask that. Lucy just shrugged.
