Chapter 75

• I walked downstairs ready to just take food and water and go back upstairs to my room, I stopped halfway down the stairs when I heard laughter, I listened to make sure my ears were playing tricks on me but they weren’t, I heard female laughter and I knew it wasn’t from the cook or the cleaners because they don’t stay and talk loudly or even laugh so loudly. I knew even before I went down that it was her, He brought her back home, he wasn’t even trying to hide anything anymore. I wanted to just go back to my room but I couldn’t let myself be thirsty and hungry just because of him or her so I summoned up courage and took the remaining steps, I knew when she saw me because she stopped laughing, I didn’t even bother to look her way, I walk towards the kitchen.
• “Hi, good morning,”
• She greeted me in a cheery voice, I couldn’t just ignore her so I turned around to greet her back. As far as I know, I didn’t have a problem with her, my issue was with the man who couldn’t be faithful and stick to one woman; maybe I shouldn’t have looked at her because my breath caught in my throat when I got a look at her face. She was drop-dead gorgeous but that wasn’t why I lost my ability to breathe, it was the fact that she wasn’t our kind, neither was she a human, she was a vampire, and even when she smiled, her fangs showed. The greeting I wanted to respond to was forgotten as we both went into a staring contest. I couldn’t believe the woman Kendrix had been seeing behind my back was a vampire, I hadn’t had to deal directly with a vampire until Raul.
