bitten. Oh my god! Did it puncture the skin?” I ask frantically.
The woman pulls over. β€œAdrik, check her face. Hurry.” She yells.
Adrik unbuckles and jumps into the back seat. Adrik puts his hand on my cheek and turns my head. β€œIt punctured. Maybe she’ll be strong enough to be immune?” He asks.
β€œIt’s never happened before.”
I’m going to die. I always thought I’d have a little longer than this.
β€œWhat do I do?” I ask loudly.
β€œThere is nothing to do. You’ll either live, but you probably won’t.” Raven says. β€œI got dibs on killing you if you try to eat anyone.”
Everyone looks at her like she’s insane.
β€œShe’s your sister. How could you say that to her?” Adrik says.
"Because she told everyone about us. She got my parents killed." Raven says.
"I didn't! Why the hell don't you believe me? Why would I tell?" I yell.
"You hated our old school! You knew we would have to move if anyone found out! You knew you were putting us all in danger, but you did it anyway! It's all your fault!" Raven yells.
"I fucking didn't! Stop accusing me! I'm tired of it!" I'm starting to feel weird. Like I'm going to throw up. "I don't feel very good." I say.
"Lay down. Save your energy. You'll need it." Adrik says gently.
"Who cares what she's feeling? She's a traitor!" Raven yells.
I open the window and try to hold back the puke. "Mom, stop the car! She's gonna throw up!" Adrik yells.
She pulls over and unlocks the doors.
I get out and start puking. Adrik quickly follows behind and holds my hair back.
When I'm finished, I notice there's a lot of blood in the disgusting pile. That's probably not a good sign.
"Am I dying?" I ask miserably.
"I don't know. Let's hope not. Mom, Nuala puked up a lot of blood! What do I do?" Adrik calls helplessly.
"Get her in the damn car before someone sees her. We'd have one hell of a time explaining this to a cop, don't you think? And we don't need a delay like that." His mom says.
Adrik rushes me to the car, supporting most of my weight when my knees buckle. He keeps glancing at me with that concerned expression. I'm starting to feel uncomfortable. One thought keeps echoing through my head. I'm going to die. Oh my God, I'm going to die. I don't want to die.
"Hey, it's okay. Everything's gonna be okay. We'll figure this out somehow." Adrik says, trying to comfort me. I wish I had more time to get to know him. He seems nice and is hot as hell. Perfect boyfriend material.
"We both know I'm not going to make it. Why bother comforting me? " I ask.
"Because I believe what I said, even if you don't." He says.
Pain starts up in my stomach. It hurts, like being boiled alive from the inside. I scream and pass out from the intensity of it.


Chapter Seven
Nothing seems right. It's as if I'm looking through someone elses eyes. The world is slightly cloudy. Probably not the best sign, considering I'm dying.
My body is in agony, and I suppose I should feel it, but I don't. For once I'm glad. I don't want to feel that pain again.
Then a sudden thought occurs to me. This is probably why no one survives. You just lose the will to live.
I start to fihgt my way out of it when-
My eyes spring open to see Adrik standing above me, about to stake me. I scream.
He drops the stake with surprise.
"Don't believe it! It's a trick. Kill her before she bites you!" Adrik's mom yells.
"No! I'm alive! I'm not going to bite! Don't kill me!" I yell.
Everyone in the room freezes. They all stare at at me in shock. Adrik moves closer and looks into my eyes.
"It's not a trick. She's alive. She's alive!" He grins.
"I still don't feel good, but it might just be because there's a sharp, wooden stake aimed at my heart." I say.
Adrik drops is and says, "Sorry. But still, I can't believe you're alive!"
"Can we please stop this nauseating joy fest? So what if she's alive, she's a pain in the ass." Raven says.
"I am your new legal gaurdian, which means no more swearing." Adrik's mom says.
"I'd say sorry, but I'd rather not lie this soon." Raven says.
"I'm tired. Raven, just shut up, no one cares about your da-" I stop when Adrik's mom gives me a look. "I mean, darn issues with me." I finish.
"Let's get you two home. Mom, I don't think we can put them in the same room." He says.
"Then where do you suggest we move one of the beds? We don't have another free room." She says.
"Nuala can bunk in my room." Adrik announces.
Everyone stares at him, think he's lost his mind.
"Honey, Nuala's a girl. Already your plan is not going to work." His mom says.
"I know she's a girl. I'll change in the closet. We can use a really long piece of duct tape to split the room. And I don't think she should be alone right now, and Raven isn't the best company for her." He says hopfully.
"Nuala, what do you think? Be hoest." She asks.
"I don't mind, as long as I'm away from her." I look at Raven.
"Well, I guess that settles it. Nuala's tired, so let's get home. I'll move the bed, and my stuff. Thankfully all the rooms were built with two closets." Adrik says.
"Hold on a minute. Nuala almost died. Are you okay, honey?" Adrik's mom asks.
"I'm tired, and I feel sick, but other than than I guess I'm fine." I say.
"Let's get you home. Adrik, move the stuff. Can you stand?" She asks.
"Can't we just leave her on the side of the road? She's gonna die anyway." Raven says.
"No!" The rest of us say unanimously.
"Raven, you just hush.We are not leaving Nuala here to die."
"Can you stand?" Adrik asks.
"No." I say after a painful failed attempt.
He picks me up like I weigh nothing. He carries me off the side of the road to the car, opens the door, and sets me inside.
Adrik tells Raven," You sit in the front. I don't trust you to look after her."
"Nothing you could've done would've made me sit next to this brat." Raven says in disgust.
Adrik closes my door without another word. He walks around the back of the car and to the other backseat, then climbs in. From there he buckles my seat belt, then his own.
"Nuala, if you start hurting again, please tell me." He says.
"I've never seen you act so gentlemanly and concerned before, Adrik. What has gotten into you?" His mom says.
"I really want a friend. I have no one to talk to but Shane, and he's on vacation." He says.
"How long is it vuntil I can take a nap?" Raven asks irritably.
"You can call the house your home, and about fifteen minutes from here." Adrik's mom says.
"What's your name?" I ask her.
"Onyx. My name is Onyx, sweety."
"Goodnight." I say, then fall asleep.
"Nuala, you can't sleep yet Just wait until we get home." Adrik says. He shakes me, trying to wake me up.
"Don't do that. She'll-" Raven is cut off when I slap Adrik and groan. "Nevermind." Raven laughs.
"Ow. Why did she do that?" He asks.
"She didn't mean to. You can't wake her up like that." Raven laughs again.
"Lee me alone." I say. I'm so tired, I fall asleep immediately after I say that.
"How do I wake her up then?"
"Like this." Rven says, then grabs a handful of my hair and pulls as hard as she can.
"What the fuck is wrong with you? Ow!" I yell.
