Chapter 9

The rest of the afternoon sped by, spent walking and shopping through various stores, Lisa and Jeanna buying everything their fingers brushed by. Kallie simply became a walking buggy, her arms extended as loads of new clothes and accessories piled high on her. They joked and make fun of one another until the sun began to set behind the edge of the world. With bags in hands, they made their way to the car and dropped everything off.

“I need to go change for drinks and you certainly need to get ready for your date tonight.” Lisa looked at her watch and then back up. “Let’s meet at La Tachera at six? Which gives us two hours to get ready at our own houses and then come together?”

Kallie rubbed at her eyes, sleep tugging at the corners. She yawned loudly as Jeanna stuck a finger in her open mouth. She pretended to bite it and growled playfully at her friend.

“No biting. That’s just for vampires.” Jeanna wagged her eyebrows.

Kallie’s smile stumbled as she questioned whether her friend was joking or serious. They parted ways, her two friends laughing at the simplistic silliness of the unknown. “Not sure that’s at all something you’d want nibbling at you.” Kallie got in her car, her thoughts restoring back to the horrible image of her father. His body broken and bruised. Had they made him strip before them? Hot fear rolled over her, tears filling her eyes as she pulled out of the small strip center. Those bastards physically hurting her dad was almost too much, but the idea of him being humiliated seemed much worse.

The fact that he’d shared his situation with her spoke volumes. She wanted to rush out and save the day, give him a different way of life and yet he knew that she’d be smart enough to figure it out before acting. She pushed her shoulders back and focused on the positive.

Liam would come over tomorrow night, Saturday, and once the two men met, she was sure they would realize they could be in the same room without killing one another, and would start making plans. Getting out of town seemed the best bet. Or… they could try and find help from another Red Blood, or a Blue Blood. Maybe Liam knew a bunch and could convince others to help. From what she could gather from the conversation with him the day before, the Blue Bloods were more calm, rational and helpful to humanity.

It seemed the Red Bloods seemed to bleed aggression, dominance and hate. Her father remained far from all of those things, but if he were not only fighting the need to feed, but those personality traits as well, it was a wonder he hadn’t exhausted all his resources all the time. He spent most of his waking hours at night with her mom. As a nurse she was rarely there at night when Kallie was young, but after the accident, the hospital let her trade shifts to be home with the family during the darkest hours.
