I moaned softly as Mak was thrusting inside of me. His eyes never left mine as he stared beautifully. I watched him bite into my neck as he hovered over me.

"Shh." He told me as I made noise.

"Rhea wake up!"

I woke up and stared at my mother who was holding up a plate of pancakes. "Happy birthday my baby, you are going to be 18 today- a young adult." She exclaimed

I realized that I was dreaming so me and Mak having sex was obviously not real.

"Why do you look sad?"

"No, I'm happy! Thanks, Mom." I took the pancakes and kissed her forehead

"You can't come downstairs until we say so okay?"

"Alright." I watched my mother close my door behind her.

I sat up from my bed and smelled the delicious pancakes. I was finally going to be 18 today. I was a little scared of growing up but then I thought to myself- it couldn't be that bad.

My door rushed open as the brothers stared with items in their hands. First up was Milo, he kissed my cheek and gave me the wrapped item.

"What's this for?"

"Happy birthday Rhea." The brothers said

"Thank you?"

"Can you be happy for once?" Malachi leaned against the doorframe

"I'm kidding." I gesture my hand for them to come sit down beside me.

"I got you a Polaroid camera," Milo smirked

"Wow, thanks."

Marcus and Mak handed me their gifts. I opened Marcus first and it was a teddy bear. "This is so cute."

"yeah because I picked it out."

I stared at the not-so-grumpy man, Mak. He handed me my present. I shook the box and it sounded light. I unwrapped the present seeing a necklace, an old vintage necklace.

"This was my mother's, you can have it.. she's dead now- so." He said nonchalantly

"Wow thank you." I tried to put the necklace on but Mak took it out of my hand. He ran towards the mirror in my room and stood there waiting. I walked over and stood in front of him. I watched as he placed the jewelry on my neck.

I turned to him, "Thank you again."

"Sure." He said dryly

Knowing Mak wasn't fond of his emotions I knew deep down he cared for me. And I couldn't believe I was realizing that- all of them cared. Who would've known Vampires could care for a human girl?

"Okay okay, enough of that lovey-dovey shit." Malachi interrupted

"Here." He handed me a box

It felt kind of heavy. "I wonder what's in here." I smiled

I opened the mini box to see a dead rat lying inside, I threw it in disgust. Malachi's laugh filled the room.

"Fucking dummy," Marcus told his brother

Malachi kissed my hand, "Happy birthday Rhea." I was still mad about what he did but I guess that calmed my nerves.

"Sigh, I remember when I turned 18." Malachi pondered

"Yeah, when you had all those dead females lying on the living room couch?" Mak spoke

"What?"

"Ah, memories." Malachi walked away leaving me flabbergasted.

"Okay get out so I can change guys."

"So how would a party sound?" My mom asked

"A party?! Here?"

"Yes, you're growing up and I trust that you'll keep everything in shape, Me, Dean, and Rafe could go to another hotel tonight while you party for your day."

I felt a tear falling out my eye, I rushed to hug my mother who did everything she could just to make me happy. She was the best mother in the world, always understanding, the best chef, the best mom, best therapist ever.

"Alright, that sounds nice."

"I made three large homemade pizzas so don't forget to take them out of the oven, Rafe!! Come on we're about to leave." My mom said

I walked over towards the oven to see the delicious food and it looked great, two pepperoni's and one cheese pizza. I turned around to become face-to-face with Dean.

"Happy birthday Rhea." He said

I swallowed my throat and stared, "Thank you."

"Okay, guys come on." Mom spoke at the door, "Happy birthday sister." Rafe said

I smiled and waved.

✥✥✥

"Okay guys, upstairs is off limits, there is only one bathroom down here. No breaking stuff and most importantly let's have fun."

Everyone yelled in excitement, I invited so many of my classmates here to my house.

This party was going to be a fun night.

✽✽✽

I stared at Carmen who was walking over towards me with a red plastic cup. "This party is fire!" She yelled over the music

I couldn't help but smile, "looks like you're having fun." I yelled

"I am." She began dancing.

I walked over to the kitchen to take out the pizzas. I turned around to see Brian who was hiding something behind his back.

"Happy birthday." He said

"Thanks." I walked towards the counter

"Uh, I got you something." He handed me a bracelet.

I took the bracelet and stared at the nice jewels on them. "Where did you get this, it's so nice."

"I stole it."

I turned to look at him, realizing he was so serious. "Oh."

"Well nice party!" He headed to the living room

I noticed a male on my mother's couch with their shoes on, jumping up and down like a little kid. They were holding the vase in their hand like a microphone as they sang the lyrics of the song.

"Hey! Put that down!" I tried to yell over the music, but he didn't hear me.

I watched as he flung the vase, Marcus caught the vase with ease. "She told you to put it down."

"I didn't hear her?" The male turned back around

Marcus spun the boy back towards him, "You shouldn't of never had it in your hands in the first place."

"Well, too bad."

Marcus turned to look over at me for permission, I nodded my head in disagreement. I didn't want any blood flowing on my mother's couch.

I went to carry the pizza tray onto the dining table, I winced from a cold feeling on my hand. It was Mak, he grabbed the tray and helped me carry it.

"Are you being nice because it's my birthday?" I stopped to ask him

He gave me a cold glare before turning back around, "Sure." He said

"Thank you but I'm not a baby." I chuckled softly

"You act like one sometimes."

"Take that back."

"No." He snickered

My eyes averted to a couple who were heading upstairs. "Hold on," I told Mak as I followed them.

I opened my door and saw them lying on each other, making out but thankfully they weren't naked.
"Out," I told them

"You're a party pooper."

"I guess I am."

"Please, Rhea?" Amy asked

"You guys can't wait until you get home?"

"No." She fake whined

"Do it downstairs."

"So everyone could watch?" Her boyfriend barged in, I turned to look at him.

"Out," I demanded

I watched the couple leave with a mug on their face. I closed my door as they left. I turned to look to my right seeing the door that was locked and cracked open.

I walked into the room and stared at my surroundings, I was a little scared from the uneasy darkness inside. The corners of the walls had spider webs. But there was only a bookcase. I strode closer to the case and stared at the books.

There were multiple books but they all had different carvings on them, I couldn't read it or understand it.

Latin.

The door slammed behind me, "No No No." I ran towards it. The doorknob wouldn't open and I was locked inside the room with no escape route.

"Help!" I yelled, but no one could hear me with the loud music playing downstairs.

I headed back over to the bookshelf and grabbed each book to try to understand it. But I didn't understand any. My eyes averted to another book that caught my eye. "Venator?"

I took my phone out and researched a translation app. I translated the word on Google to find out what it meant, it was written in bold font and it looked important.

I listened to the voice translation, Venator to English was...

"Hunter."
