Chapter 15: Vampyre Confronted

Liliana's POV

The remainder of the daylight hours were spent playing back varying reels of her childhood and every word Darick had spoken. Jasper had quickly lost interest in talking about vampyres and eventually skirted out of the house."I'm out. You two have fun. And listen with an open mind. You know frowning causes terrible wrinkles in humans!"

Liliana retreated to the bedroom, falling face-first on the downy white comforter, bemoaning as she landed.

How is this possible? How? None of this makes any sense. I'm an intelligent woman. Educated, socially aware. How did I get sucked up into this absolutely crazy situation?

Darick Xander must be some kind of nut job. Maybe I overlooked all the signs. He could be just an ultra-rich crazy guy. Right?

After waking from a restless nap, Liliana turned over and stared at the ceiling. It was time to get out of this house. Taking a walk and breathing in the fresh air of sanity was a necessity. And she knew where to go.
