Across town, Robert’s boss, Janet Poksat alone at the bar of the nearly empty Red Velvet Lounge. A second vampire enters the lounge behind her. He doesn’t make it all the way to the bar. He turns and enters an empty VIP room. Elaina led me to the same lounge. I stood…
Back at the house, while I was leaving the Goth’s home, Elaina was minutes away from waking from her vampire slumber. …And Robert was just getting home from work. He entered the house and didn’t recognize anything there. Elaina had gone above and beyond in her attempt to erase any sign of me in the…
“It can be done, right?” I asked concerned by Olivia and Samuel’s reaction. “Of course it can be done,” Olivia quickly responded. “A ghost can hide themselves from anyone…it’s just that it sometimes takes a while to learn, especially when it comes to vampires.” “I still haven’t completely mastered it,” Fridainterjected. “Yeah, and she’s been…
Based on Robert’s response during our last visit, I figured I’d never get an opportunity to talk to him again. I would have to deal with Elaina myself.

Robert jumped awake and looked directly in my direction. I doubted that he saw me, but I decided to leave his view. I didn’t want to overwhelm him. I needed what I told him to sink in. He looked around confused; like he didn’t know where he was. “What the hell?” He asked out loud….

Then I heard someone approaching. From the footsteps and steady breathing, I knew it wasn’t just a spirit. This person…
My encounter with Elaina made me desperate. She now had all the ammunition she needed to hurt me; through Robert. Luckily it was close to dawn and Elaina had retreated underground to rest.
