“In your room.” He spoke smoothly. The fierce intense look that he had earlier was now smoother but she could still see the worry. She ran past him reaching her room. Liz, Ashley, and Zach were curled up on her bed, safe and sound. Nothing looked wrong at all.

She turned back to the living room. “What’s wrong? What happened?” She demanded an answer because she could tell by the faces on both of them it was bad.

“Jarrod, can you give us a minute. Go to the bedroom with them.” She looked at Jarrod as he nodded before disappearing before her eyes.

“What’s wrong? Don’t sugar coat it. I know something is bad wrong. Tell me Damn it.”

Damien stepped toward her. “Taylor, I didn’t want to tell you like this. Let’s sit down.”

He had her shoulders leading her to the couch leaving her no choice.

“What do you remember about your biological mother and father?” He began.

“Nothing. What do they have anything to do with this?”

“Your aunt that raised you. What do you know about her?”

“Nothing. She just disappeared after I married Chase. Gone. The last time I checked the police said they were still continuing to search for her, but there isn’t a sign of her. What has she got to do with it.”

“Your aunt’s name is Ramee. Not Regina. She left because she knew they would be able to track you through her, like they have with us.”

“So she is a vampire to. Is she alive? And what do you mean they would track us through her?” Tears poured from her eyes. Her heart felt as if it had stopped completely waiting for his answer before it would beat again.

“Yes. She is well. She has kept tabs on you. You may not know it. Ramee has the ability to change her appearance. To make you see things that isn’t true. She can manipulate your mind. And she has, only in a way to keep you safe and to be able to see you, talk to you, touch you. She has remained in contact more than you know Taylor.”

“No she hasn’t either. I haven’t seen her. Who is tracking us?” Taylor felt a new anger growing inside of her. She would have known if she had seen her. It really didn’t matter at this moment though, she needed to know who in the hell was tracking her and her family.

“Do you remember last month, you were driving home from work and you stopped and picked up the fragile little lady who just needed a ride home? It was raining and cold out.”

“Yes. So?”

“That was her. The little boy who was lost and brought into your ER, the one that you stayed with telling the stories of your childhood to. Again her. She has been in your life more than you know. She had to do it to keep you and Liz safe.”

“Who is looking for us Damien? I want answers now!” She screamed quickly toning it down in fear of waking the kids. The hell with Regina or Ramee, she didn’t care. If she left on her own free will, putting Liz and Taylor through hell then the hell with her, Taylor thought.

“Calm down Taylor.”

“Don’t you dare tell me to calm down! And don’t you dare use a single one of your fucking gifts either. I want answers and I want them now!”

“Just calm down, I am trying to answer your questions the best way I know how.”

“Straight forward. Don’t sugar coat it.”

“Fine, but keep in mind you asked for it.” His words were harsh and she found she didn’t care at this point.

“Ok, you said something about my parents. How do they come into all of this?”

“Sweet this is going to be hard for you to believe. They were like me. You and your sister are like me.”

She froze.

No way. Impossible. This can’t be right. That would mean that I was vampire. I don’t have special abilities, I don’t have the slightest desire to taste blood. I’m just me. Simple.

“You do have them. You have always had them. You and Liz are both vampires. Your mother Ciarra and your father Macco were vampires. Your Mother was half for the first part of her life. Your line of decedents are special.”

“What do you mean my line? Explain it.” Taylor was confused, in disbelief. She felt like passing out, waking up as if all of this was a dream.

“I will. Let me explain all of it then you can ask your questions. Understand?”
