Higerth never spoke to me or much less looked at me my whole stay there. Rani came every night and visited me. She told me all the rules and any other important vampire stuff, but I was ecstatic that being a vampire didn't mean I couldn't see my two older sisters. Rani had told me it was ok because I wouldn't thirst for their blood. If I had been a regular one, I would have had to wait for a couple of years.
"When am I aloud to see them?" I asked. I never talked to her formally for some reason. She was more like an unknown grandma I had never met.
"When I have gotten you settled in at a house. I am thinking about moving you to mine so I can keep a closer watch of your training." Every vampire had to train so that we won't lose control to our thirst.
As usual, she left before the sun rose out side our window. The sun didn't hurt us, but for some reason, she always went out at under the cover of darkness.
I went down the hall to where I was sleeping. I was tired from staying up late at night and waking up feeling unrested. A sudden groan from David's room perked my head up and my heart jump with start.
Higerth still hadn't returned from his hunt, so there was no one here to help David. He always does this when Rani comes to talk.
I opened the door to my room and tried to ignore his moans, but he let out a pitiful cry of pain. I couldn't ignore his cries, so I went into his room.
This is the first time in a week to he was awake. He was healing, but I had hurt him badly. There was still a hole in his chest, but it was smaller and the lung was fully repaired.
He struggled to sit up. I went to him and picked him up as easily as I would a baby and propped him against the headboard of his bed. My hands were sticky with sweat from his body. I found a bowl of water by my chair with a cloth in it. I rung the water out of it and started to gently dab the sweat off his face.
"What happened?" he rasped. He moved his hand to his chest and touched the bandage cover the wound. His face winced in pain.
I could feel a lump in my throat grow from guilt. He didn't deserve this, after all he did for me, this is how I repaid him. "I...I...I'm so sorry David...I didn't mean to-"
The door to David's room slammed open and I jumped up. My foot tipped over the bowl of water soaking the floor.
Higerth was shaking with anger. "What the fuck do you think you are doing?!" His yell seemed to shake the walls around me.
"David-he-I-"
"Shut the fuck up bitch! I don't want to hear it, just get out."
He pulled the same mistake his grandfather did before I nearly killed him and David both, he called me a name. I don't know why, but that was the only way to really make me angry.
I walked up closer to him then I had in the field and stared him strait in the eye, which was hard to do since he was taller then David. I clinched my fists into balls and I could feel my face turning red with anger. "Now, you look here. I wasn't about to harm a head on his body. It's not my fault that you were lounging around in the woods when David woke up. And if you think I was about to let him suffer even more after what I had done to him-"
David let out a loud groan. "Stop! Stop!" He shouted grabbing his head in pain. "Please, will someone just tell me whats going on?"
"I will when she gets out of here," he growled.
"She has a name you know." I said relaxing my hands.
"I don't care. As far as I'm concerned, she is no better then the dirt on the bottom of my shoe." He walked around me and knocked my shoulder real hard.
"Please," David begged," will some one please just tell me what is going on?"
An evil smile grew on his face like fire catching to a leave. "Yes Karsea," he hissed," why don't you tell poor, innocent David what you did to him?"
The lump returned in my throat. I swallowed and tried to force it down. I couldn't look him in the eyes. I stared at my feet and tried to form the words in my mind before saying them out loud. "David...I...I tried to kill you and your grandfather."
