sat up and rubbed his head , looking confused.
She held his head in her hands and kissed him on the lips. “Yes, honey , it’s me. I changed my mind. I decided not to go through with it.”
“Huh?” h e asked. “I don’t understand. What’s going on?”
She kissed him again and I turned my head away in disgust. Maria grabbed me by the chin, forcing me to look at the screen.
“Vance, honey, listen to me, ” she continued. “I decided not to become a vampire. I realized that I had too much to lose. I didn’t want to give up our life together.”
“I don’t understand, ” he said. “Why do I feel so funny? My head is all fuzzy.”
“V ance, don’t worry about that,” she said. “Listen to me, sweetheart. I have something important to tell you.”
“What?” h e asked.
She looked right into the camera and smiled before turning back to him. “Sweetheart, I’m pregnant. You’re finally going to be a daddy.”
He sat up, more alert. He framed her face with his hands and smiled. “What did you say? Are you serious?” He sat back on his knees and starting kissing her with fervor. “Holy Christ, baby, I’m really going to be a daddy?”
I could see where this was going and I started to cry silently. Maria looked at me and smiled. “Turn it off,” I said. “I’ve seen enough.”
Her smile grew as she paused the video. “Oh no , you haven’t. The best part is coming up.” She dug her nails into my chin and turned me back towards the screen. “Keep your eyes on the screen or I swear I will drain you and your little witch friend dry,” she warned.
I cringed as she hit play again and I watched in horror as the scene played out in front of me. Vance seemed stuck in the past as if it was thirty years ago and Maria was still his wife. It wasn’t a surprise what happened next. He was thrilled that his beautiful wife not only chose him over Leo, but that she was carrying his child. His perfect world was back. All of his dreams were coming true as he passionately made love to his wife for hours . I had to sit there and watch the entire thing while my heart crumbled into pieces. Finally, when I didn’t think it was possible for me to cry anymore, she turned it off.
“How could you?” I asked her. “ How could you be so cruel?”
She scoffed. “Oh , please. Like he wasn’t equally cruel to me? I wanted to come back to him after Leo made me a vampire. I begged him! I told him we could be young together forever, but he rejected me! He told me that he could never forgive me for sacrificing our child.” She rolled her eyes. “Obviously, he just wanted a baby factory, not a lifelong mate.”
I shook my head. “That’s not true. He wanted both, but he fell in love with a human so he had to play with the cards he was dealt. He would have loved you until the day you died of old age. And then your children would have lived very lengthy lives to remind him of the love that he had for you.”
She stood up and grabbed a fistful of my hair. “You bitch!” she screamed. “You think you know him so well? You think he loves you? Well, obviously not as much as you thought if someone as powerful as him couldn’t sense a little potion on my lips!” I couldn’t help it but I winced right then, fueling her fire. “Maybe the truth is that he couldn’t wait to get his hands on me so he chose to ignore it!” she continued. “He moved inside of me with so much hunger, so much raw need that it must have been building up since the day I left! He came inside of me with so much force that I almost had trouble containing him. ME…a goddamn vampire!!! He’ll never fuck you with that much passion! Ever!!”
She released her grip on me and stormed out of the room, leaving me alone with my thoughts. I tried reasoning with myself, telling myself that she was wrong, but I couldn’t see past those horrible images of them together. My time with Vance had been the best sex of my life, but he didn’t look
