Chapter 13 : The Contract
*Beth’s POV*
I woke up wondering where I was. Sunlight was streaming in through the window, making my head hurt with how bright the room was. What had happened last night? The bed I was in was soft and clean. I discovered where I was when I saw the large intricate bed frame. In my bed at the villa!
I looked down at my body. I was no longer dressed in the borrowed police uniform. Instead, I was in a simple black top and gray shorts. Who had dressed me? What was going on? I don’t remember falling asleep here.
My head throbbed, and I reached behind me to feel it. On the back of my head, there was a huge bump. This caused last night's events to rush back to me. Being handcuffed, Zed admitting that he was a monster—that he was a vampire—how he had pushed me against the wall, then chained himself, and finally, the feeling of flying across the room.
After that, all I remembered was blackness. Holy shit! How was I still alive?
