Mumm

Chapter 2

My mother is the Vampire Queen and my father was a human, her mate. She wanted to change him but he wouldn't let her. He was the leader of a gang and someone from another gang stole me to get to my father. After my father was killed, they dropped me off at the orphanage. I grew up in foster care being told I was abandoned. Turns out my father wasn't killed and he was turned into a vampire by someone else.

After my mother found out, she killed him. Now he really is dead. After all that happened, I left. I wanted to be on my own. I hated being in a coven. I was used to being on my own. That was 150 years ago. Now I live in New York. The city that's so great they named it twice. I am a police woman here. I am the best in the field. Unfortunately, I have been here ten wonderful years. The problem with that is, every seven years we fake our death and move on to a different life. I love being a cop. I never want to quit. But I still look seventeen or eighteen, saying I am thirty-three, so after this year I have to fake my death again.

I got up and got ready for work. When I get there, I am running five minutes late. My partner Charlie John yells out

"Yo Charlee Lee, where have you been at, girl?!" I mentally, face palm myself.

"Will you shut up, your going to get me in trouble," I whisper yelled, at him. Then our Captain stuck his head out and yelled for us. I glared at him. Charlie is a werewolf. Our kind don't always mix but he knows I keep my blood lust down. I eat or rather drink once a day in blood bags I get from the local blood bank that they through out. Blood bags go bad. As in humans, can't receive them. Vampires can still drink them. So when humans go to donate after a big natural disaster, I say thank you as most the blood is thrown out. Then Vampires sneak some bags. Now I am not a monster. Okay, I have a heart and I feel for everyone affected by natural disasters. I donate money food and clothes. I have even been to a few places to help look for missing people. So, see I am not a complete monster.

Charlie and I go to the captain's office.

"John stop giving Coleson a hard time. She has ever been late. You give her a hard time her first time. Come on man, I know you never cared for having a female partner, but I thought you got over that after she has proved to be good at her job over and over again," Captain Varges said.

"With all due respect, Campten, I believe Johns was joking.We have become best friends in the last 7 years of working together. I have even babysitted his kids so him and his wife could go out on date nights. I believe he was joking, sense I always seem so good at everything." I said.

"John? Is that true?" The captain asked.

"Yes sir it is. If I wasn't joking I would have used some of the nasty names I did when I first started here.But like Coleson said, we have become best friends and my wife even loves her. I make fun of her name and call her Charlee lee to make it sound like a more girlish name. I even asked her before I started doing it. And if we are talking to people we are professional," he said. The captain seemed to be okay with his answer, so he nodded his head once.

"Okay, well, I like you both so I got to yell to make this more believable. I don't want the other guys to think I am going soft on ya. Your doing a robbery from a cafe. I think some onions were stolen or something. It should be fairly easy.
