Angela left Gabriel’s side and came over with a friendly smile. I smiled back, trying to keep my fangs hidden. When she got close enough, I turned and led her to a more secluded place between two abandoned buildings, further away from the apartments. No one would hear her here. I would make sure of it.

I kept a good few feet from her until the shadows of the building covered us.

“What are we doing here?” she asked curiously. My skin prickled at her fakeness. How could I not see it before? It was so obvious now.

Greed’s voice echoed in my mind again. “Don't just attack anyone. I know your body craves bloodshed but you need to be smart. Control it. Use your mind and your will. Wait until you have someone alone then feed.”

When we were out of sight from Gabriel’s view, I quickly turned and grabbed the scruff of her shirt, slamming her against the brick wall. “So, let's talk, friend.”

Her eyes widened but there was still determination there. I had to quell whatever bravery she thought she had. She was nothing compared to what I had become. The vein on her neck throbbed with her growing fear.

“So Brother White needs you to be a spy and tell you about the vampires does he?” I purred.

She sharply inhaled and I grinned. She tried to scream but I slapped a hand over her mouth tightly. I leaned in, took in her scent and moaned as my mouth began to water again.

“Here goes something neither one of you knew. I am one,” I whispered. Picking her up with one hand, her feet dangled in the air, desperate to get back on the ground. I finally showed her my fangs, licking my lips. “So, this is the way you wanted things to be huh? You get the guy, betray me and I end up locked up. Why? So you could be the pretty one? Bitch, on my worst day you could never beme.”

I was feeling the rush of something big. I wanted to bite her badly. I dropped her and kicked her in the ribs causing her to spit up blood as she rolled over onto her stomach. The smell called to me and my heart raced with anticipation.

“Let's see your knife that Gabriel gave you to protect you from me. Pull it out!” I goaded, wanting a fight.

She was trembling. In over her head. She finally realized what she was up against.

I laughed, crouched and leaned in, inhaling deeply. Before she could make a move, I quickly grabbed her by the hair, lifting her body from the ground.

“This isn't you, please, we have been best friends since we were five,” She pleaded.

She disgusted me. “That's where you’re wrong. I wasyourfriend, you were never mine.”

I pulled her close and let my animalistic instincts finally take over. I sank my teeth into her neck, piercing the flesh. The blood on my tongue was decadent, erotic almost. I sucked hard on her crimson life force and eagerly gulped the saltiness down my throat. The gnawing hunger was finally being quenched, promising me strength and everything I needed. She whimpered as I drank my fill before I finally let her fall to the ground.

With what strength she had left, she rolled over sobbing,

“Was this your plan all along? To make me a vampire and an outcast like you?” she accused with a hoarse voice.

“Wrong again, bitch!” I stomped on her face as hard as I could. Now that the thirst was temporarily gone, the anger overtook me. My foot went through her face, cracking her skull, hitting the asphalt.

“I guess all is well that ends well,” I said to no one.

I shook the remnants of her flesh from my boot and wiped her blood from my face. She may have sucked as a friend but she sure did taste good.

“Now, to find Lust. It's time to bust Greed out of that hell hole.” I moved between the buildings, keeping myself out of sight. Gabriel was oblivious to what went down, but he would come checking on her soon enough. I needed to get out of here. I needed to go find Lust.

Using the long way around in case someone was following me, I made it back to my bike. I made sure to grab my bike keys before I left my apartment. I mounted it and started the engine. I rode hard and fast, I didn't want to run into any other clans except ours. I wasn’t sure where he stayed but I took the bike in the direction I would sometimes hear him come from.

After what felt like an absurd amount of time and weaving onto roads I was not familiar with, I saw a large mansion up ahead.

“Lust seems like the kind of guy that would stay in a place like this,” I mumbled as I turned my bike in that direction.

There were several bikes parked outside. It had to be his family. I pulled up the driveway and parked my bike into the open spot before hesitantly walking up to the place and knocking on the door. I waited for a few minutes with no answer. When I knocked harder, still no one came.

“Fuck it.”

I twisted the handle and it was unlocked, so I walked in. The house was dark with minimal lights but with my new found abilities, I could see things clearly. The floors creaked with every step. I could hear the sounds and screams of sex and agony echoing through the house when out of nowhere, a giant man walked down the hall toward me.

“Hey, um, I’m looking for Lust?”

The closer the person got, the bigger he became. His presence was overwhelming. He suddenly growled and sped up in a full out dash right for me.
