way to the bar and ordered a single malt whisky, and scanned the room checking out the clientele. The last thing I needed was to be in a room full of hunters. I could detect vampires since I had become one. That would’ve been handy when I was just a hunter, it would’ve made tracking your target so much easier. It was a subtle thing, but handy none the less. It was like an internal radar, and vampires showed up as little beacons of red light.
    My eyes locked with three male vampires. I sa w their confused expressions. They moved their heads closer together as they discussed what I was. I was getting used to vampires not really knowing and because I still had red eyes, they generally avoided me. It was a win-win situation for me. I didn’t want to get into pleasantries with the vampires, I wanted to eat my tea and then leave.
    I’d been here for a couple of days, but i t was time for me to move on to another town before the hunters worked out where I was. I had headed back towards Dunster because of a deep need to check on Dario. There was a contract out on him and even though I didn’t like him very much, I didn’t want him dead.
    The bond hadn’t made me instantly fall in love with him; if anything it had confused me. A part of me hated him for turning me into a blood sucking monster, but the mind connection had made me feel like I was missing a part of me. I could feel his loneliness and longing, it reflected my own loneliness and longing and made me want to wrap myself around him until he no longer felt like this. I cared for him and that was something that I wasn’t supposed to feel for anyone, let alone a vampire.
    I searched the club for my lunch date; he was sitting at a small table watching his friends chatting up some girls on the dance floor. I ordered a beer for him and another shot of whisky for myself and headed over to the table. I couldn’t help but notice that the male vampires were watching me. I was probably making them nervous. They would be wondering if I was there for one of them.
    The human male with incredibly green eyes and handsome face, didn’t even notice that I was standing there waiting for an invitation to ‘grab a seat.’ I followed his gaze and it all became clear. This lovely handsome male didn’t have eyes for the ladies; he was in fact sitting brooding, watching his best mate chatting up a girl. I slid the beer across the table at him and said, “It looks like you could do with this.” I wandered off knowing that any advances I made towards him would be a wasted effort. I could only use compulsion once my fangs were tapped into a nice vein, and to do that I had to get close enough to make out a little first.
    I knew that I couldn’t for m a sire bond with anyone, so, I didn’t have to worry about accidentally forcing my will on someone and tying them to me for all of eternity.
    Only elders could enforce a sire bond . It was like a cheap wedding with no option for divorce. I wasn’t really sure how or what you had to do, other than the elder takes lots of blood and forces their will into their chosen partners mind, and because the bond would be an eternal bond, it had to be with someone they wanted to spend the rest of their very long life with.
    I guess I should’ve been flattered that Dario had chosen me out of everyone else he has met along the way, but I knew that the only way we could break the bond was death. I had no plans to die just yet, but if the other hunters got hold of me, I wouldn’t have a choice.
    My energy levels were getting low. Dario was insistent in my mind that I find another male and get on with it. I swallowed my glass of whisky and to my delight saw a male on his own leaving the club. I didn’t want to draw attention to the fact that I was going to follow him so I held back for a few minutes and when a few girls headed towards the exit, I tagged along behind them so I looked as though I was a part of their group. Once I was outside, I went in
