the vampires have found me and I need to get our people ready to fight as soon as possible. "
"Are you sure it's the vampires?"
"No, but I won't risk it. I'm going to check the car out tonight when I return home, but I think it's better to be safe than sorry. Call your cousins and tell them the meeting's tonight."
"You got it."

As the squawk of my morning alarm penetrated m y ears, I slowly started to wake. But suddenly, the alarm wasn't the only noise piercing the silence. A car door slammed outside my bedroom window , followed by the chirp of its alarm being set.
This was usually a very quiet neighborhood, and not many people w ere out the door before me. So, I sluggishly made my way to t he window to take a look. The moment I noticed the young couple walking down the sidewalk , my weary eyes popped open and my paranoia revved into high gear. The car they just left parked across the street looked like the one from las t night – the one that had been f ollowing me.
The young man glance d back at the car and then met my eyes for a split second. He wasn't anyone I recognized , and neither h e nor his girlfriend looked menacing, just out of place. They resembled what I'd describe as a couple of European grunge pop stars . At least that's how Rose described some of the bands she use d to watch on MTV.
Rose . I missed my girl so much, and now having this couple show up here , a couple that I was sure had followed me from The Rising Pit...I had to get back there and continue my search.
Maybe this weekend I would take Meredith out for a night on the town. A night that would include da ncing ... at The Rising Pit. When I'd been there looking for Rose it seemed like a really nice club, and hopefully , if I could spend a little time inside , I might just discover the clue I needed to find my daughter.
D inner, dancing, and some detective work sounded like the perfect weekend to me.

I was so happy Meredith was pleased with my plan. I 'd remembered this logging site from when my cousin had been one of the ir part-time workers a few months back. It was notorious for always having different workers constantly coming and going . O nce I'd scouted the area I figured the far back parcel would be t he perfect place to snag some blood donors .
I gathered my supplies: some drugs, needles, pipes, etc., and the tubs we were going to be draining the blood into, and then headed over to Meredith.
She was so beautiful. Her long blonde hair and that tight little ass . I 'd blamed my reaction in the alley on the blood high I 'd been experiencing, but really, it was because I'd wanted her from the moment we met.
I worked on the east side of town as a construction manager, and very rarely had a need to travel into the city, but on th at particular day I was headed downtown to drop off some building permits . That's where I ' d first laid eyes on Meredith.
She and Jeremy were having lunch at one of the outdoor caf é s that litte red the downtown area. The moment I laid eyes on her my body reacted. Desire flowed through my veins like hot lava . N ot only was she sexy, but the red flare in her eyes had me assuming both she and Jeremy were demons. Finally, another female demon that wasn't related to me.
After g aining control, I'd walked past the lovebirds and went about my business, but on my way back out she'd been sitting alone and waved me over.
We started talking and she explained that she re alized I was a demon when my eyes flared as I walked by the table earlier. I guess I hadn't hidden my reaction to her as well as I thought I had. She told me that Jeremy was still in the dark about his heritage, but that she was planning to set up a group w here demons could get together and discuss their ancestry. She was h appy to hear I had a large extended family that I thought would like to a ttend.
"Do you have everything?" she asked , p ulling my attention back to the present.
