I stood at the bottom of the stairs, looking up at the sign that read Angel’s Pass High School, wondering why I had told my father that I would rather go to school than be homeschooled with everyone else. It would have been so much easier to be taught at The Manor by my grandmother, but I wanted to have a normal life, or as much of a normal one as I could.
The front doors opened and someone stepped out, quickly coming down the stairs toward me. I sighed deeply, hitching my backpack higher on my shoulder as I pulled my gaze away from the sign. I was already late, but I couldn’t seem to make myself walk up those stairs.
“Don’t worry, Sis. We’ve got this.” I heard Chandler’s voice, but couldn’t believe she was really there. When the subject came up the week before, she hadn’t expressed any interest in going to the local high school with me. She’d actually ignored my conversation with my dad and grandparents, going so far as to leave the room to go work on her magic spells. I thought I was on my own.
My eyes widened in surprise as I looked up and saw her standing just two stairs above me. She was dressed in jeans and a dark green sweatshirt, a brand-new backpack slung over one shoulder. “What are you doing here, Chandler?”
Chandler tilted her head to the side, a slow smile crossing her face, “We are sisters. We stick together.”
“You’re really going to school here with me?” I asked, praying it was true. I did not want to go through those front doors alone. Some fierce vampire hunter I was turning out to be. I could not even conquer my fear of attending a new high school by myself.
“I’m not the only one,” Chandler said softly.
The front doors opened again, and my eyes misted over when I saw Asher, Eben, and Brielle walk through them, followed by my father. “All of you?” I whispered in shock.
Brielle grinned, “Why should we let you have all the fun?”
“I’m not sure this is my idea of fun,” Asher said with a laugh, “but I’m here for you.”
“Thank you,” I said softly, wiping at the tear that slipped free. “Thank you all so much.”
Eben opened the door for us, bowing as he motioned inside the school. “In the words of our fearless leader, let’s do this!”
Shaking my head at his antics, I began to climb the stairs, clutching the strap to my backpack tightly. Those were the exact words I had used just weeks before when they all pledged to follow me in our fight against evil, but I wasn’t sure how fearless I was feeling right now. Stopping beside my dad, I clutched the class schedule the school had mailed me in my fist and whispered, “I love you, Dad.”
“Love you, too, baby,” he said, leaning down to give me a hug. “Now, you are all late, so you better get going.”
