hunter, but the looks of a vampire. His gray eyes were
even similar to a vampires. His dark brown hair was messy, but it looked like
it naturally fell that way. “Who the hell are you?” I asked even though I had a
feeling I already knew.
“My
name is Kai. I am…” he started, but I cut him off.
“You
let a vampire in the compound?” I snapped as I glared at my uncle.
“He
is part vampire, and more importantly part hunter. We have to start somewhere,”
my uncle countered.
“I
can’t believe this,” I growled then turned and stormed out.
People
cleared a path for me. They obviously didn’t want to annoy me anymore then I
was. “Lillian we have to end the war at some point,” my uncle chided as he
followed me.
Once
I reached the second floor landing I turned to face him. “How could you of all
people want a truce? They killed your brother!” I said angrily.
“No
they didn’t. One vampire did. You cannot blame the entire race for one act. If
that is how things were done there would be so many races that would just be
out of luck because of one person’s actions. What if the vampires judged us by
what you have done?” My uncle was arguing his point like he always did, and
like always he was right; but I wasn’t going to let him know that.
“I
would love it if they would give up on this whole truce nonsense. It would give
me a lot more of them I can go after instead of ones on a damn list!” I
countered.
“I
know damn well that you don’t stick to the list so don’t treat me like I am an
idiot,” he growled in a lower tone. It didn’t matter. Any vampire could hear
him. They had crazy good hearing. I knew if Kai was part vampire then he would
hear every word we spoke.
“Yes,
and now you are tightening my leash even more. How the hell am I supposed to do
anything?” I snapped.
“You
aren’t! That is the point. We can coexist with them if both sides put in the
effort,” he said lightening his tone a little.
“I
don’t want to coexist. I want them dead,” I growled then turned and hurried up
the next flight of stairs. He didn’t make a move to follow which was a relief.
I was tired of arguing. I wanted to be alone.
I
walked into my room and slipped my hoodie off. I hesitated when I saw Damon
laying on my bed, flipping through a magazine. He and I were on again, off
again boyfriend and girlfriend, and we had been for a while. He was a great
looking guy. He had the perfect body, he was a great hunter, and he had curly, dark
chestnut hair. On any normal day I wouldn’t mind coming home to him in my bed,
but I wasn’t in the mood for him, and I knew he was aware of it. He just didn’t
care.
“I
can see you met Kai,” he said amused.
I
don’t want to talk about it,” I countered as I stood in front of the mirror and
unpinned my hair. My black curly hair fell around my shoulder. My hair went
well with my blue eyes and pale complexion. I was tall and tone like a hunter
should be, but I was still feminine thanks to my large breasts and curvy body. I
cursed as I examined the tattoo on my arm. It was a white lily with small
raindrops falling off it. There was a small cut across the tattoo that I must
have gotten in a fight. It was the same tattoo my mother and father had. They
got their tattoos when I was born. I got it when I was sixteen in memory of
them.
Damon
put his arms around me and I closed my eyes as he gently kissed my neck. “I can
make you feel better,” he said playfully.
“I
bet you can,” I said amused as I felt the tension start to leave my body. I
turned into him and pressed my lips to his. His tongue touched mine and I felt
my body heat up. His hands went to my ass, and he lifted me off my feet. I wrapped
my legs around his waist enjoying the feel of his lips against mine. There was
a loud knock on the door. I broke the kiss and sighed. “What?” I growled.
“I
need to talk to you Lily,” Luca said from the other side. He sounded annoyed
which
