Chapter 11: Deadly Attack

For the first little while in the woods I'm caught up in a struggle with myself. There's a girl in me apparently that wants to trip over my feet at any excuse so that we can see if Christian will catch us in those really nice strong arms of his and maybe hold us for a little. And then there's my sane side who thinks that's a really bad idea and ends up with us serving first course for Vampire gourmet night for the rest of my life.

There really is something compelling about him. For all the snobbery and the insulting way he seems to look at us no-souls as though we're little less than cattle, my heart still pounds unsteadily in my throat when I catch him looking in my direction. I want to impress him, I want him to think I'm pretty as well as a really tasty meal. I want him to touch me and that's the most dangerous thing I've wanted in a long time.
