Gina's POV
Amara smirked as she gallivanted toward me. I stood shocked at her eye color, and I was more surprised at the horrendous fangs protruding from her gums. Was she also like me? A vampire.
Suddenly it felt like everywhere was cold and dark. the students who had been walking around us faded into the background. it was as if I was alone in a dark tunnel.
A flock of crows flies toward me, about two dozens of them, their eyes a deep purple color, their beaks sharp and curved, their talons sharp.
The leader was the biggest crow and it came closer to my face, obviously aiming for my eyes. I screamed, my eyes snapping open.
"wetin..what was that" I stuttered, my heart beating faster than ever as I realized I was still at school with my friends.
Martha was giving me a look of concern and even Emeka looked worried.
"What was what" Martha said, peering into my face"We've been calling your name the past five minutes"
"Cr... Crows, lots of them, at my face" I shuddered at the memory " pu.. purple eyed"
Emeka's eyes widened in surprise, his and Martha's eyes met.
"We need to get the hell out of here" Martha said Pulling my arm today the school gate.
"Why... What's going on" I asked, confused.
Martha ignored me while Emeka moved like he was gliding on the floor looking someone running away from death. I casted a quick glance back only to see Amara with some slay queens coming toward me, their eyes purple. While everyone and everything seemed frozen in time (except Martha, Emeka and I)
" Dark witches" Martha hissed.

"Come on babes, It'll be fun I promise" Martha shouted dragging my arm toward the night club.
This was my first night out (except uncle K.K's beach party) and I was petrified. It didn't help I was still pretty shaken from the encounter with those witches. I hadn't wanted to go back home alone and Martha had proposed that I party with her and Emeka.
"Take a deep breath" Martha inhales and I mimic her, closing my eye I opened, I suddenly felt better.
I shrugged off Martha's hand from my arm then the three of us walked toward the double doors of the club where a tall dark skinned hulking Mountain of man who was dressed in a black tee that had a security written with white on his chest and dark blue jeans stood with his arms folded together.
Hey eyed us noticing we all wore converse (sandals and slippers weren't allowed according to Emeka)
"Edet how e dey be my guy?" Emeka addressed the guy as both shook hands
" Mekus" he smiled at Emeka, then eyed both Martha and I "Martha, Gina right? Have fun guys" he said then stepped away allowing us into the club.
‘La Havana’ was every bit what I had expected the most popular club in Aba to be and more, it was heaven to students who were looking for a good time. La Havana had a neon concept, with Led lightening illuminating every part of the club. I stared at the walls like a moron, noting the walls were plastered with pictures of Wizkid, Davido, Tems, Burna Boy, Arya Starr and other celebrity singers and rappers who from what Martha had told me had previously visited the club.
The dancer hall was crowded and we made our way towards the front where we could get a better vantage point of the Dj.
The music was loud and I could feel a migraine forming. My new vampire senses didn't help as all my sense amplified a hundred times more.
I could smell the sweat underneath the cheap perfumes the guys wore and even something more..
The smell of lust....
"Excuse me" I muttered wrinkling my nose and pushing a drunk girl who had been gyrating on some boy out of way. I could smell cheap perfume plus lust for the scarecrow next to her and it was disgusting.
"Heyy!" She protested, then proceeded to gum her body on the boy's like a leech.
"Come on babes let's go get some drinks" Martha yelled above the music momentarily distracting me from my reverie.
I quickly followed her, if I was going to get through with the torture I was facing then no need to do it sober.
We walked to the bar which was located at the left wing of the club. A cute guy (whom Martha whispered to me was her last weekend fling) smiled at both of us, then eyed at Martha, or mainly at her cleavage. He turns his attention to me.
"What would you ladies like?" He grinned staring at my chest.
"Four bottles of Hennessy XO Cognac" Martha ordered. I gasped knowing how expensive those drinks were.
" H..How..why?" I stuttered
"You'd need more than a bottle to get drunk, and I sure wanna have fun seeing you drunk" she smirked making me roll my eyes at my stupid best friend.

"Hey pretty" a tall familiar guy said as he danced toward me.
"Hey handsome" I smiled eyeing his neck. Samuel Peter's had a crush on me according to Martha and I did at some point in the past but that didn't matter now. I wanted him now.
I walk towards him shaking my hips until I closed the distance between us.
"Sammy" I pushed my chest toward him and licked a spot in his neck and he groaned.
"Oh God" he muttered. I placed my right hand on his chest and hooked my leg on his waist, gyrating against him as the Dj changed the music from slow to fast.
I was drunk as hell but I didn't care, I needed something from him.
"The bathroom" I whispered into his ears then unhooked my legs from his waist.
I move fast to the bathroom and I knew Sammy was hot on my heels.
He push me toward the wall the moment he catches up with me, grabbing my lips in a searing kiss. We both fight for dominance until I won.
I dragged my lips from his and placed little kisses on the side of his neck, then I struck..
