just a
little bit more satisfied about shooting her than I did in the
end.
She died. Her body reduced to a pile
of ash on the bed of a hotel suite.
We left the hotel and my only thought
was that I hoped I never saw New Orleans ever again.

We were home.
Three weeks had passed since the
vampire line was eradicated. The governments were now trying to
re-establish itself all over the world. The military was also
rebuilding their forces, and this time they were equipping
themselves to fight vampires.
I was happy to be back in our little
compound. I missed everything about it, but mostly I missed how
safe I felt inside. A few weeks beforehand, I had been certain that
we were going to face our death and that I would never see the
place again. Now that we were back, I was even more grateful for it
than I had ever been before.
Drew and Gavin weren’t having any
strange side effects from the Warrior Angel healing them, but
Zander was another story. He acted like he was depressed and hid
out in his room all the time. I knew that I would have to make a
point to talk with him soon. I had a feeling he was hiding
something from us.
“ Chloe,” Drew strode into
the gym, where I was on the treadmill, with a cell phone in his
hand. “You are never going to guess who is on the phone!” he
hissed.
“ Who?” I slowed the
treadmill down to a walk.
“ It’s the freakin’
Secretary of Defense! They spoke with the board at Arcadia Falls
and found out that it was us who discovered the secret of the
bloodline and took out Korina. He wants to know if we will meet
with him to discuss being a consultant on vampire
affairs.
I wrinkled my nose. “Really? That is
so weird.”
He nodded. “It’s true. Are you
in?”
I shrugged. “Yeah, I’m in. Why not? I
guess our biggest mission ever is going to be to train the world
how to fight vampires, huh.”
Drew laughed and closed the door to
the gym as he lifted the phone back to his ear.
I turned the treadmill back up and
sped back into my happy thoughts of being home, of Drew and of
everything I’d almost lost.

Hint Hint – It will be Drew’s point of
view instead of Chloe.

Sweltering heat emanated
from the searing flames. Alex ignored his blistered skin and burnt
clothes. He plunged both arms into the blazing orange inferno
without a second thought for his own well-being. His hands
frantically flailed until he found what he searched for. He pulled
the charred remains up and hugged them to his chest before he gave
a desperate glance toward the others.
Smoke curled into his
mouth and nose and made it nearly impossible to breathe.
“ Hurry, hurry. Get out
now,” a gentle voice whispered into his ears. “You must go right
now if you want to live.”
However, he couldn’t leave
them behind.
“ Go now,” the voice
whispered more urgently.
Sparks flew when a giant
log broke in half and fell from the ceiling. It crashed onto the
floor less than two feet from where Alex stood. Flames engulfed the
fallen wood and created yet another obstacle.
The voice tried again,
crying out, “Hurry, Alex!”
Alex knew he needed to
move if he wanted to live, but he paused for a moment to question
whether he even wanted to bother. The flames grew while Alex stood
motionless, undecided. Suddenly, a great push from behind thrust
him forward toward a wall of fire.

Alex stirred in his mahogany coffin,
one of the best money could buy. He felt the soft, white velvet
lining rub against his cheek, but it didn't comfort him. He panted
like a thirsty dog and writhed helplessly inside the narrow wooden
box.
His eyes snapped open. First, he
checked his hands for burns, but he found none. He groaned while he
became more aware, and realized he'd had another
nightmare.
He sighed, wondering if the recurring
dreams were going to
