17. All My Issues Dancing On My Head.

The son of a bitch.

"Why do you say that?" I leaned against the doorframe. Two could play at this game.

"Your comments from the other evening." He waved his hand negligently around as if it didn't matter to him. I'm quite sure it didn't. He was an immortal vampire. He'd lived his entire life secure in that knowledge.

"I have no idea what you're talking about," I lied. No amount of herbs would help me now. My heart picked up its pace. He planned to throw my mortality in my face. I'd played different versions of this game since the day I'd been born.

He smiled, ran his tongue over his fangs. "You're a mortal witch." I took the direct jab square on my chin. It was the truth after all. "Your immediate coven is mortal."

"Yes we are." I tilted my chin out slightly as if daring him to hit me again. I should have known better.

"Half breeds."

His words hung in the air. Sneered at me, prodded at wounds that never healed. I'd taken two steps forward, hands fisted at my side before I caught myself.

"I am not a mongrel." I hissed through clenched teeth.

He flicked his gaze up and down my body. His lip curled slightly. "Half supernatural. Half Human." He didn't bother to hide the sheer disgust in his voice.

Human trash. Who let you into our school?

"You serve us as well as the humans because you can't fit into one world." He gestured at my two offices. "No one in the supernatural community would accept you as anything other than a pet. You're weak. A mortal. Pathetic." He spit the words at me. "And the humans would shun you completely if they knew about your powers."

"You must have hated the prince. Sitting across from him. Talking to him. Knowing you couldn't begin to be his equal. No wonder you hate us. We are your betters and you will never be one of us." He flicked his tongue over his fang. "A total disgrace. You and your coven shouldn't have been allowed to survive."

He blurred in one of those super fast vampire moves to stand before me, just inches away as he leaned down. "I'll find my proof and then I'll kill you." Warm copper misted over my face with his words. "I'll be doing a service to the community."

The supernatural community. The one I would never be a part of.

Somehow the fact that I was his only suspect didn't seem to matter that much right now. Part of me knew I should be very worried, the rest of me just didn't care.

I don't know how long I stood there after he left. I was afraid to move. I locked my muscles down on the pain screaming its way through my body. If I moved, it might break free, and if it did I would shatter into thousands of tiny pieces.

Tiny pieces that didn't belong anywhere.
