Yeah, grammar is not my best either so no harm there Wink

With Philip, I'm want him to be silent but also be a leader they look up to. Hopefully that will come across more the further my chapters go. But I'll go back and work on that more in this chapter.

The kill thing was a big no-no. You'll see why in later installments, but they are kind of the typical vampire. (sorry *cringes* I know that sounds bad) They don't kill humans. But hopefully that doesn't make them too sterotypical. I did try making them unique! Wink

Well, thanks for reading and I promise to keep writing!

i like the part about sophia's birth mother. will we ever get to meet her in the future chapter?

Night Mistress:

Yeah, the Birth Mother will definitely be emphasized more. I wanted that to be a bigger part of Sophia's history.

I'm glad you enjoyed this.

I'll keep you posted for future rewrites. Wink

Thanks so much, Bri!

Hey Ash,

I loved this chapter! Everything is just getting better and better! Your descriptions and the way Sophia is portrayed is just magnificent. The flashback was my favorite part because it shows she has a conscious, which is good. Your characters are really fleshing out and hopefully there'll be some type of conflict because I sorta feel it coming. Can't wait to read the next chapter.
Happy Writing,
-Angel

CHAPTER TWO: I don't understand why Sophia gets in such big trouble. She didn't even DO anything. You should explain this better.

Oh, and something I forgot to mention last chapter. Too many "you are" and "we will"s. This is modern day and, vampire or not, they'll pick up on modern day language.

And to the memory: If she's so consumed by instinct and desire, then there should be no logic there. Sophia shouldn't be thinking of her family finding the body, or of fairness to the human.

AND I HATE THAT CARMEN HAS MOVED ON! NOOOOO!

By the way, your characters are great - just feel so real Smile THe scene with Philip is also well done.
