Bleed You Twice

BEATRICE

Beatrice stared at the blond, mouth agape as she wrestled with the fact her friend already knew vampires were real. And had never told her.

“I know it sounds insane,” Claire continued, taking a seat next to her friend on the couch. “But you have to believe me. Ryan is a vampire and he ca mesmer you into doing anything he wants.”

“Claire…”

“You need to trust me on this. I know it’s super hard to believe.”

“Claire.”

“So long as we don’t invite him inside, he can’t get to you, okay? Whatever he said to make you think he’s so great should wear off after a while, I pi

“CLAIRE.” This time Beatrice spoke more forcibly.

“Yeah?”

Beatrice turned to face her friend. “How the fuck do you already know about vampires?”

It was the blond’s turn to stare, mouth agape.

“I… uh… met one… at work… a few years ago,” she hedged, stormy eyes flicking away as she fidgeted.

“Bullshit,” Beatrice snapped in much the same way her friend had not that long ago. “Do you also know about werewolves, too?”

Sot until you answer my question.”

“Fine,” the blond sighed dramatically. “Once you figure out vampires are a thing, wolves aren’t far off. Besides, the night life around here tends to attract tons of different species. Now, why did they grab you?”

“Hold up. What do you mean, the night life around here attracts tons of different species?” Beatrice felt like she’d fallen down a rabbit hole, for real this time, and was being transported to an alternate dimension where very little made sense. “Why have you never told me about any of this?”

“The bar I work at is open to all manner of creatures,” Claire explained with a huff as she returned to sitting beside her friend on the couch. “It felt to tell you about all the things that might go bump in the night.”
