Where am I again? Oh right, I moved. If you guys are wondering, I am a 17 year old werewolf and I just moved into a new town. New York City, New York. So far, I have a job and have moved all of my things in and unpacked. So why am I sleeping on the floor? Don't ask. I was tired after work last night and I just sorta passed out as soon as I got through my door.
Suddenly, my phone starts ringing in my pocket. I stand up from the floor and pull my phone out, looking at the caller ID.
"Hey bro. What's up?"
"Hey Caleb. Just calling to make sure you made it alright," my older brother, Carter says.
"Yeah. Just fine. I'm actually just now waking up."
"Sorry, did I wake you up?"
"No. I woke up right before the phone rang."
"Alright. I'll visit you soon. I love you."
"Love you too. I'll see you soon."281Please respect copyright.PENANA5xWA6wBD4j
We hang up the phone and my stomach growls. I walk over to my fridge and find that there is no food. I sigh and go into my room. I grab a pair of ripped jeans, boxers, a t-shirt, and a hoodie and go to the bathroom to get a shower. After my shower, I get dressed and grab my wallet, keys, and phone and leave my apartment. I walk towards the store and end up in an alley that I've never seen. I go a little farther into the alley and smell blood, and a lot of it.
"Hello? Is everything okay?"
I get to the source of the smell and see three guys, all having black hair and exotic eyes, feeding from a young woman. I freak out as soon as they turn towards me and I turn around, bolting out of the alley. I get to the store finally and try to act as if nothing had happened.
'Zeke? What were they?'
'They were vampires. And some mighty fine ones at that~'
'You are nothing but a horn dog, Zeke.'
'I know. But did you see their eyes!? They looked so cool!'
'Whatever. What do you want to eat?'
'Get hamburgers. We haven't had any for so long~'
I pick up a box of hamburgers and some fries to go with them. Then I go and get some brownies and donuts and go to the cash register.
"That'll be $20.49."
I reach into my pocket and get my wallet out.
"I only have $5," I sigh. "Sorry Zeke. I guess you won't be getting your hamburgers for a while again."
"Who's Zeke? If you don't mind me asking."281Please respect copyright.PENANAUnoN3rMA85
"Zeke is my wolf. He really wanted some hamburgers."
"We'll pay for it," a deep voice says from behind me, causing me to jump.
Somebody hands the cashier some money and takes the bag, handing it to me. When I turn around, I see the three guys from the alley. I bow my head with a "thanks" and walk away from the register. I get outside of the store and notice that the guys are following me.281Please respect copyright.PENANAlO79Duh4D5
'Zeke, how do we get away from these guys?'
'We don't. They'd just find us no matter what we did.'
'There has to be something we can do to get away.'
'There isn't! Just keep walking. Go home and let them follow.'
'You're just hoping they do us, aren't you?'
'Maybe~'
'God you are such a horny idiot.'
'Hey! You are just like me!'
I turn towards my apartment and can still smell them following me.
"You know, I can smell you guys. You might as well just come up here and walk beside me."
They come up and one is on my right, another on my left, and the other is nowhere to be seen.
"Where's the other one? I know there are three of you."
"Smart puppy~" I turn to my left to see the one with red eyes said that.
"Don't call me puppy. And why are you guys even following me?"
"Ya see pup, we know it was you that saw us. Your smell is, let's just say that you smell different than most wolves that we've met."
I turn around and see the one with violet eyes on my right side.
"Where's silver eyes?"
"Oh? And how do you know what colors our eyes are?"
"I saw them at the store."
"Sure~"
I sniff the air and smell him coming up behind me. I turn around and grab him by the throat.
"You thought you could hide from me, didn't you?"
"Damn, ya caught me."
"Ugh. Whatever. I need to get home before my brother shows up."281Please respect copyright.PENANAPN2EQS4OhC
I let go of the other vampire and turn back towards my apartment. I get to my apartment and unlock the door, the vampires still following me. We get into my apartment and I go to my bedroom and take off my hoodie and shirt, throwing them on my bed. I get into my dresser and pull out a crop top and some leggings, pulling off my jeans, I get dressed into the clothes. I put my long hair into a ponytail and put on some lip gloss. When I finish getting dressed, there is a knock on the door. I go to the door, passing the vampires that are sitting on the couch. When they look at me, their eyes widen. I open the door and see Carter standing there with a boutique of red and black roses, my favorites.
"Carter! I love them!"
Carter hands puts the flowers on the stand beside the door and shuts the door before giving me a hug.
"Hey little bro. How was the move?"
"It was boring~ But now I get to be with you, so I'm not complaining."
"I guess you're right~ Now who are the bloodsuckers?"
"Names! I never caught y'all's names."
"I'm Jacob Michael Smith, call me Jake," the one with silver eyes says.
"I'm Jonah Martin Smith," violet eyes.
"And I'm Taylor James Smith, call me T.J.," red eyes.
"Okay. Well I'm Caleb Nathan Baker."
"I'm Carter Mason Baker."
"There; introductions are done."
"Why are you guys in my brother's apartment?"
"We have something to talk about with little Caleb here~" Jonah purrs.
"And what is that?"
"We want to know what he saw in the alley earlier," T.J. says to my brother. From what I've gathered about these three is that Jonah is the flirt, Jake is the playful one, and T.J. is the smart one.
"So pup~" Jake purrs. "What did you see~?"
"I don't know what you're talking about. Now get out of my apartment so I can spend some time with my brother."
"Alright puppy~ But we'll be back," Jonah says.
They all get up and the other two walk out the door, but T.J. stays until they are gone.
"Look kid. We just want to make sure that you won't tell anybody. The last time that someone caught us feeding, we were ran out of town by the people there. So we just want to be safe about this."
I look into T.J.'s beautiful red eyes and nod my head.
"It's not like I was planning to tell anyone. Not like it would be the first time that I saw a vampire feeding. Our father was a vampire."281Please respect copyright.PENANA3h5BRoWn6q
"Alright. But we'll be back tomorrow morning to talk about it."
"Fine. Just knock at least? I don't want you guys acting like creeps again."
"Will do. See you," he says with a wave and walks out the door, closing it behind himself.
I look to my older brother and kiss his cheek.
"It's been so long since I've seen you, Carter. I've missed you."
"I've missed you too little bro. How was it living at mom's?"
"I hated her. And I will never call that woman my mother. She adopted us after our real mom was murdered by dad. She was nothing but an alcoholic and a druggie after you left. Abusing me like I couldn't fight back."
"But you're the one that killed dad?"
"I know! Right!?"
We talk for a while before he has to leave and he finally kisses me on the lips, making me blush. We aren't like most families. We are way closer than other brothers are. Me and Carter have been like this since I killed our dad. I was ten years old when that happened. The first time that we actually kissed was the night after everything happened. Carter was fifteen and I was ten, and I was actually the one that initiated it.
I flop down on my bed as I gently touch my lips, still blushing furiously. I sit up and take the crop top off, throwing it onto the floor. I grab my teddy bear and cuddling it to my chest as I fall asleep.281Please respect copyright.PENANAkiZV7LZ6nx
