Rebecca Johnson
The bar is so busy tonight. I can't wait until closing. I dodged to other serving girls that were taking orders. Almost hit one of them with the tray of drinks. That would have been very bad. Would receive a beating. Hate those, they hurt badly. I came up to the table that had asked for the two beers. They were dirty and had tattered clothes. Farmers most likely. I came in on a conversation I didn't want to hear.
"I swear the sow was completely dry. No blood left in it at all and there were two lil holes in'er throat." The fat one said.
"Stop talking like that. Don't you dare speak of the devils or the devils will arrive." I glared at them as I set down their beer.
i don't believe it. I refuse to believe that the creatures followed the colonists to the New World. They were all massacred by the clergy's army in London a hundred years ago. However, the legend survives. They couldn't possibly be here. Not in the New World. Vampires, I had a hard time with the word in my thoughts,are not real.
I turned around and headed to my last table for the night-hopefully. There is one last beverage on my tray. A glass of wine for the General's son. William Storm. The most handsome, most charming and most arrogant man in the town of Shadows Creek. He has long black hair tied in a horse tail at the base of his neck and brilliant green eyes the sparkle. And I hate him for being perfect and flaunting himself in front of women. He always kept his red coat spotless, after all there was hardly any fighting anymore since they ran the savages out.
My father was in the King's army. He was a colonel under General Storm and while they tried to settle the land when I was a young child, my father died in a Indian raid. I never blamed them though, not once. After all we did take their land.
I set the wine down on the dark wooden table. "Your wine sir."
"My thanks to the pretty lil lady." he said before raising the glass toward me before he touched it to his full pink lips and taking a sip of the burgundy liquid.
I couldn't help but study his beautiful face. His bright green eyes captivated mine and his dark bangs fluttered with the slightest movement of his head.
"Oh, payment! I'm sorry my dear." he said as he reached into his pocket and pulled out six copper coins. Yes payment was the reason I had kept still and stared at him.
"But, sir, you've given me three too many." I tried to correct him as he placed the coins in my hands. His hands were so soft and they curled about my hand, closing it around the coins, causing me to blush.
"Several more can't hurt you. Keep the extra for yourself." he said as he smiled at me flashing his perfect, white teeth. Shameless flirt.
"Thank you." I replied as I curtsied.
William Strom
I drank my wine as I watched he walk away. Her light pink dress swayed. Hmmm. Lovely figure, yet the only girl who refuses to give me the time of day. Not fair. She's a lonely little wench. Her father was a good man, served under my father and died in a savage raid. I was still hiding in London and I was nineteen plus the twelve years after my change, then she was ten? Yes. And her mother? Ah, yes, I heard she died of yellow fever on the boat. Right, so that's why she's so dreadful. Ugh, chases men away with that attitude after she attracts them with her flawless face. What a waste of beauty. Oh well. I'll make her come around eventually. I mean I am General Storm's son. We practically own this town.
Hmmm...the wine isn't as pleasing as it was twelve years ago. Now I prefer blood. But i didn't drink that pig's blood. I wonder if father or mother...no. They have better taste than that and they wouldn't leave a corpse just laying around for a human to find. Must report this to them. Oh please Lord, don't let be a wild one.
That is part 1. Sorry if it's a bit confusing Here's some random pics I round thanks to google. I will draw out Rebecca and William eventually but school is starting and I have hardly any time with hw and sports, but hey I'm in art class so maybe if we have free time in there.
