They lie side by side after intense hours of passion and pleasure. Her ripped, ruined dress lay somewhere on the floor. They held each other like it was just the two of them against the world. 
" It feels like such a long time since I have ever felt so peaceful and calm" jayda sighed gently. She made tracing patterns on his bare chest with her long fingers.
He smiled at her.
" me too"
" I'm not even thinking about work, or my parents or the orphanage or my weird visions"
" maybe we should stay like this forever " he suggested. 
" that will not be possible "
" why not?"He asked
" because you need to work to make money, and you need to make money to eat and survive. I don't know how you do it in your mystic world or whatever but this is real life and that is how real life works".
" you just have to overthink everything and try to be rational all the time" he chided. She laughed.
" I should call my boss" she said as she suddenly sat up. Adrian put his hands on her shoulders and pulled her down in to the bed. He pulled the blanket over them and held her tightly. 
She laughed so hard, the tears came to her eyes.
" Adrian I could lose my job"
" you are good at what you do, so getting a new job would be very easy for you"
" besides it would be their loss to let such beautiful talent go"
" I just have to call and let them know I won't be coming in today"
" I think it's best to turn off your phone for now and not contact anyone. We really need to lie low for at least a week"
" it's not like the wolf guy, has some kind of digital gadget or something to trace my cell phone "
" Shhh...... Adrian hushed his eyes closed......we need to get some sleep" He snaked his arms around her and held her tightly. Jayda finally gave in and let it go. 
She closed her eyes and they both were fast asleep in a matter of minutes.
By the time cade woke up, Adrian and Jayda were long gone. He slowly sat up and twisted his head back to its natural position. 
He went back to his motel feeling disappointed with himself. 
He doubted that they would go back to Jayda's house, but he had to make sure. When daylight comes he would have to go and check. 
Jordan and his friends had made it into Seattle. They made people turn and stare at them because of their weird looks, dressing and very white faces. Adrian and Cade had tried keeping their presence and existence unnoticed in the human world. Humans were not supposed to know about them and for the few weeks that they had been in the human world, they had managed to keep it under wraps. But Jordan and his friends were making a mess of everything. They had made a quick stop at a bar in town on their first day. They had just arrived the evening before Jayda and Adrian had got on the train to leave town. It was jordan's idea for them to have a little fun and loosen up. They had poked around as Jordan had felt Adrian's energy in that area. It felt weak as they were in different neighbourhoods but the energy was undeniable. They had gone to the diner where Adrian once had dinner with Jayda. The people at the diner had looked at them weirdly because they looked like they were new in town and felt a bit out of place. They however ignored them and minded their businesses. Jordan strode up to the waitress who suddenly became scared as soon as she noticed him walking towards her. Jordan had seen the fear suddenly jump in to her eyes. It gave him the feeling of superiority that he had always wanted. He had always been treated like an outcast, a psychopath,always left out and avoided back in his clan. But seeing the young pretty waitress cower at the sight of him gave him a sudden rush of blood, an exhilarating surge of power. Yes, they should be scared he thought, he was not one of them, he was not like them. He was more powerful. He was an immortal. Now that he was here, the smell of human blood was too tempting for him to ignore.
He was finally out of his father's eye and watch. He sniffed the air, it smelt of freedom. He smiled awkwardly unnerving the girl at the counter.
" hi.... he drawled.
" hi can I help you?... sorry ....I mean.. do you want something? Do you want to order something?" 
He grinned evily and widely. He was enjoying the torment the poor girl was passing through. 
" I am looking for someone " he said placing his long fingers on the counter top.
" have you seen any tall white guy with dark hair and grey eyes. He wears a lot of black"
" no I have not"
" are you sure? He is kind of hard to miss"
" I have not seen anyone like that"
Jordan tapped his finger nails on the counter as he looked at the girl and took a quick look around at the people inside the diner.
He turned abruptly and went towards the exit.
" Let's go " he said as he pushed past his friends and headed for the door. They both followed him out like moth to a flame. Jordan had brown hair unlike his brother. He was also considered handsome even though his features could not be compared to Adrian's. He equally fancied black outfits as much as his brother did. But instead of a long trench coat, he would rather throw on a black leather jacket.
They had gone to a pub at the end of the corner.
" what can I get you?" The bartender asked as they approached the counter, Jordan in lead.
" What's popular here?" He asked.
The bartender looked at them suspiciously. A very weird bunch he thought. 
" scotch on the rocks"
" we'll have that" Jordan answered.
The bartender poured out the sparkly liquid in to three large glass cups and added ice cubes to each. He passed it out to the three. Jordan gulped his down in one quick swig. All that running and walking had made him thirsty. He raised his hand to signal to the bartender. 
" give me the whole bottle " he said to the bartender. 
The deadly look on his face made him quickly grab the bottle from the shelf and pass it to him.
They spent about an hour getting drunk and insulting humans.
" look at them, acting like they have no care in the world"
" they think the world belongs to them"
" why do they get to enjoy all this while we hide away in caves and dark places?"
When they had emptied the bottle, Jordan stood up first. 
' let us get out of here' he said.
" excuse me" the bartender called,..." you have to pay for your drink"
" but we do not have any money " Jordan answered. 
" that is not my problem pal. You gotta pay for what took"
Jordan looked at the bartender and then at his friends. He quickly swung his fist at the unsuspecting bar tender sending him reeling backwards in to the bottles on the shelf behind him. There was a loud bang and crashes. Jordan waited for him to get up and attack him, but the man backed away, crawling on his hands and knees as he avoided them.
Coward! Jordan thought. He was ready for some action but he was not getting it. He looked around at the scared faces of the people in the bar. Humans were weak, he loathed them more in that moment. He left the pub furious.
" what do we do now?" Kate asked
" my brother is here or was here. I can feel it"
" so how do we find him?"
" I just need to concentrate more "
" we are running out of time" xander said.
" you guys have a better idea" he yelled. They both kept quiet and exchanged glances.
" come on. Maybe a little blood will help me focus better"
They stood on the line outside the NIGHT LIFE night club. When they finally got in, they were a bit overwhelmed with what went on in there. The loud music, the heavy drinking, people making out in corners and private booths. This was perfect Jordan thought. Now to look for a prey.
He noticed the pretty pink haired girl who had been staring at him from the dance floor. This was it. The girl was dancing and looking at him invitingly. He gladly accepted the invitation. He moved from the bar and approached her. She did not say anything, she just smiled and continued dancing, her body making contact with his.
" can we go somewhere quiet?" Jordan asked her while giving his sexiest smile. The girl had that look in her eyes that said I want what you want.
She took his hand and led him off the dance floor as they headed to the restroom.
In the ladies' restroom, the girl suddenly stopped and turned to face him. He took the cue and lowered his head and took her mouth with his. They kissed hungrily, like some sex starved teenagers. Jordan unzipped his pants as she lifted her skirt. He took her there and then. Fast and energetically. He realised that he must have also needed this. 
When they were done and dressing up, she said
" What's your name?"
" Jordan " he said as he came closer to her.
" What's yours?" 
" eva" she said.
" can I hug you?" He asked. 
" sure" 
He leant over her and held her. He made a move as if he was straightening up and immediately dug his teeth in to her flesh. He bit her neck and held on as he sucked her blood. He put a hand over her mouth to stop her from screaming. 
When he had gotten his fill, he looked at the almost unconscious girl, blood dripping from both sides of his mouth.
" I had a little accident" he said as he looked in to her eyes.
Her pupils dilated immediately as she repeated what he had just said.
He let her drop down to the ground in a sad unconscious heap.
He went out to find the others after he had wiped his mouth clean.
" come on. Let's go"
" I bet you've had your fun" Kate sneered.
" damn right I have" he answered.
Few minutes after they left the club, Jordan noticed that someone was following them. 
He signalled to the other two with his eyes. They suddenly cut through a dark alley and hid, waiting for the unsuspecting intruder so that they could pounce on him.
Rexy followed them in to the alley and was surprised when he did not see any sign of them. It was dark so it was hard to make out anything. Jordan suddenly rushed out and made a dive at him sending them both crashing to the ground. The others came out too as Jordan held on to Rexy.
Jordan sat up and turned the mysterious person around. 
" Rexy?"
He pulled him up by his collar.
" Where is my brother?"
" holed up somewhere with the hybrid"
" what is that supposed to mean?"
" I bet you he is sleeping with her"
Jordan looked confused. 
" he would not do that. My brother is too obedient and loyal to disobey our father"
" I can take you to where they live together"
Jordan let go off him.
" very well then, lead the way".
