I moan as the warm water touches my skin. I see Carl’s blood leaving my skin and some of the rotten one from the vampires. I feel no regrets. If that was the way of getting justice, I would keep doing it.
I get out of the shower, covering my waist with a white towel. I clean the fog from the mirror and look at myself. My grey eyes are surrounded by circles of darkness, sorrow and hate. I know I’m going crazy but I don’t care. It feels right.
I wash my teeth and brush my black hair. In my head I’ve Kai’s words. Truth is, I don’t know what to expect from Europe. Specially from the Jóia Branca pack. They’re old and follow the rules religiously. I know they would love to kill someone like me. But… I’ve to try. I need to try to form an alliance, convince them to hunt for once and for all every vampire.
This is the best for the Alcateia. I know it.
I get into my room. I let my naked body fell over a huge white bed that I like to call all mine. I was about to fall asleep when I feel a deep pain on my heart.
I sit, gasping. What the hell is this?
I turn on the lights and search to see if someone is the room. But nothing. It’s like… someone invisible is hitting me. A sudden despair takes over me. It’s like the world is going to end. Tears start falling from my eyes. I cry like a little kid. I feel so afraid, so fragile.
What the f**k is happening to me!?
