Shadows Sing Side Story Ch. 5

Natasha’s Day After   I'm haunted by these last two days of council meetings. First, the drama of leaders having children and then that boy… sorry, grandpa, out of no were making a scene like that. The worst part was the disapproving gaze when the young one agree to be a protector for a human child. No wonder tensions proliferate. I honestly thought I was going to die because all of this happened on my watch. They gave me the black robe of authority. They taught me their ways and traditions. They ingrained their laws and expectations on my lips and body language. After all, I'm not like them. If they hurt each other, they could live and recover. But if they attacked me, I would have died where I was standing. It sucks being a human embedded in a vampire's world.  How did my life get to this point? Where did I mess up so badly that I work for literal creatures of the night? O’ right. Debt. It grew and grew till I could not pay a cent back. I went to college with full-ride tu

Shadows Sing Side-Stories Ch. 4 part 1

Chapter 4: Lady Van Schlager’s View   Disappointing. So disappointing that things did not turn out as planned last night. My employee Bruce was supposed to tend to his group of friends. I was supposed to get word back this morning that a thorn in my side has finally been removed. Yet no word has come despite this late hour. If things have turned out as I expected they should, I would've heard a word of it immediately this night. I pour myself some black tea to help ease my nerves as I lounge in the ballroom waiting to hear some news about yesterday's evening. I also wonder about my son. That strong-willed child of mine and spoiled by our clan members. My son has been out a little too long this evening. It’s not like him to be out so long, the sun will be rising in a few hours. Honestly, what could that boy be possibly doing? Just as I thought came to me, I hear the front door slam shut and my son's voice rings out, "I'm home, mother.” I leave the ballroom with my c

Shadows Sing Side-Stories Ch.3 Part 4

I fear the things I don't know. Some much of who Roxanne is, how she came to us, and her absents now, frightens me. I don't see it as practical, natural, or logical. I wanted to make sense of it, to understand her but I never knew where or how to start. Even she doesn't remember her parents. Apart from blood work done that proved that she was related to my wife, we had no way of knowing who her father was or who likely her other blood relatives could be.  I scratch my head with frustration and lean back in my office chair.  "Not knowing where to begin. Perhaps what I do know will help me find some type of closer," I say to myself as I start to stand up.  I leave the office room and open a closet door. Hanging a hook on the left-hand side is an attic pull-down hook. I take the attic hook and make my way to open the attic door. I pulled down the dusty old ladder and started my climb up. In the attic I looked over the few stacks of boxes, I knew were filled with book
