After losing everything, there was only one option. Jump. Go all in. With both fangs. It was the punishment I deserved after what I'd done. Before a few months ago, I didn't eat meat.

I'd become something I hadn't believed possible, but now that I'd changed, the truth was, I liked it. At least while I partook. Afterward, when the blood haze faded, guilt would edge its way in. I hadn't killed another human, not since Gabe, but killing him was horror enough. It ate at my heart. I remembered the grotesque way his body lay on the floor. The way Professor Pops and the guys looked at me with loathing, disgust
