By Ally Thomas
Author’s Note: Rayea, the Vampire from Hell is missing and presumed dead. It’s been a year since any of her friends have heard from her. In this installment, I explored adding new voices from characters in the series so you can just jump right in and learn about Rayea, the Vampire from Hell from her friends’ points of view. But don’t be surprised if you hear from Rayea too.
If you aren’t sure who a character is, be sure to read the Character List (at the end of the book) for more information.

September 2. Early Morning.
As I poured myself a second cup of coffee and jotted down a few notes in my diary, I tried not to notice that Blick was staring at the calendar. Since Rayea’s disappearance, he had been staying with us, Demetri and me. Being a wolf god with the werewolf curse in his blood, Blick had an anger management problem and had a tendency to break stuff first and apologize later. When he was angry, he seemed to be taller than his stature of seven feet. Blick was an attractive man with a muscular body, amazing gold eyes, and a strong, confident air about him.
His fits of rage were commonplace now. Some days, my vampire sense helped me read him. On days like this when he was in a dark and brooding mood, it did not matter that I knew what he was about to do before he did it.
You know what day it is?
he asked. He ripped the calendar off the wall and shredded it into a million pieces. I’m not sure how much longer I can do this.
I scribbled down a note to get a new calendar in my diary, ripped the page out, and stuffed it into my jeans pocket. Had Blick not said it aloud, maybe I would not have thought about it. I had been up since about 3 am after returning from hunting.
Silently in my head, I agreed with Blick. Forgetting what had happened today (a year ago) wasn’t a possibility, for me, for any of us. I said the lie to my fragmented brain anyways. My heart was bleeding. So was Blick’s. Rayea had been missing one year to the day, to this date on the calendar and we had not stopped looking for her. None of us had. Blick. Lynn. Demetri. We all wanted her back, at any cost. We all believed she was not dead. We all believed a Vampire from Hell could not die, could not truly die, not this vampire anyways. I was holding out for the notion that I would get to see my maker again. I desperately wanted to confess my sins to another vampire who would understand. Rayea had committed her list of sins so she would have advice for me, something a maker could comfort her fledgling with. I wanted a conversation like that with her, just once.
As Blick deposited the torn calendar into the recycle bin, I asked him, Would she give up on you if you were presumed dead, Blick? Would she?
Having recently re-read her journal entries again, I wanted to tell Blick what I had read. Instead, I hesitated. I recalled the time Rayea (pronounced RAY – ahh
) had talked about Blick almost going dark, almost being sucked into the world of evil by her father, Satan. He tempted all mortals and immortals with the darkness, and she had saved Blick from it. She had pulled him back from the edge. Okay along with the help of a blood god, but still. I knew how much Blick loved her. It was written on his face, every anniversary of every month on this day we had all faced it together, every second of every day when the second of the month rolled around.
He smiled at me with a bit of kindness in his tawny gold eyes and shook his head. His dark bangs fell in his eyes. He brushed them away and turned around quickly. I saw the tears surface in his eyes before he stomped out of the room. A loud crash made me jerk a bit. I wasn’t sure if it was fear of rooming with a wolf god or too much caffeine. I opted it was the second reason and wondered what new item I would have to order online now. I’d find out later.
Actually, I understand Blick’s rage. The longer we waited and hoped for Rayea’s return, the angrier he became. I felt every bit of it as well. However, I did not show it. Rayea was important to me too. I had no idea I would lose my maker so soon and I was determined beyond any force in the universe against me to find her and bring her back. I may be her first fledgling vampire she created and that may mean that I was obsessed with finding her. I wasn’t the only one. I kept that glow of hope burning in my heart for her. When she had turned me, I had not wanted to live. I had stabbed myself many times in an effort to end my life. I could not go on with the abuse my ex-boyfriend, Nathan lavished upon me. I had given up. I had decided to end it all. Then Demetri had walked into my life.
Now, because of Demetri, an Angel of Death who refused to take me over and because of Rayea, the vampire who turned me, I loved life. I really did! I enjoyed every day of my second chance. I enjoyed being with a man who loved me. And I wanted to be the vampire she would want me to be, a vampire who did the right thing, who saved the innocent from the evil out there, and who stood up for those who could not stand up for themselves. Okay, maybe I stumbled now and then, but everything I had done in the past months had all been for Rayea. Correction, over the past twelve months. The date hit me square in the chest. Had it really been a year since she had disappeared? I wanted to jump on my bike and go speeding off into the night. I could not believe it. Had it truly been that long? I wanted her back. As the days had turned into months, I refused to believe she was certainly dead. Even though we had not heard anything, I refused to admit it to anyone that our hope was fading. I refused to give up on getting her back. Lynn, Rayea’s best friend, and I constantly thought of plans to find her. In the beginning, we would present them to the guys. Later on, when Blick disagreed with every idea as he usually did and Demetri sided with him, we did not bring the subject up anymore. Lynn searched the internet for any sign of chatter about ‘the Vampire from Hell’ and I went out each night and searched the streets.
Demetri, my boyfriend of eighteen months, had been Rayea’s boyfriend. He was her ex now, but they had remained the best of friends after they broke up, a fact I did not approve of when Demetri and I first started dating, and I had been turned. For a few months, I was mad with hunger, anger, excitement, delight, and fury. Many of my emotions escalated to the highest intensity levels you can imagine. I fought hard to control my thirst, and had it not been for Demetri, I probably would not have made it.
Once I realized Blick was Rayea’s ultimate love, her soul mate, even though she could not admit it, I let the jealously go. It did not matter that neither of them had declared their love to one another yet. I believed it and so did Demetri. We both wanted Blick and Rayea to be happy together. I think that realization in the end is what made me understand what I must do. Demetri had told me once that he guessed Rayea needed Blick like he needed me.
Knowing that the guys wouldn’t approve of the idea, Lynn and I had gathered up Rayea’s blog entries and had published her online journal at www.thevampirefromhell.com as a book. We did this four months after she vanished. Eight months later, a book called The Vampire from Hell was now a bestseller. It was taking on a life of its own. It did not matter that the author was missing, presumed dead. That only added to the mystery. An author who thought she was a vampire turned by her father, Satan. The people ate it up. And too, they finally learned that vampires do exist. At least, the people who read the book know this fact. The others. Well, they can learn that on their own.
Some vampires, like what Rayea is and what I am, are day walkers. We can walk among humans undetected. We also can shoot flames from our hands. We are
