Blue Moon
not you angel, I don’t want you to fear me, I want your trust.”
    I don’t answer him; I just carry on dancing with my eyes downcast.
    The floor fills with other couples dancing, while I just look out at them all with sadness in my heart, not in my eyes for them to see.
    As a woman walks past with a tray of drinks, I stop her in her tracks; standing in Theo’s arms, I knock back two glasses of champagne.
    I carry on this way, knocking back drinks, trying to numb everything just for one night. I know that drinking my sorrows away is pathetic, but I don’t care, because I’m drunk!
    “Zara I think you’ve had enough.” Theo tells me gently.
    I instantly think of Den, this is what Den would tell me also, but then probably join me. God, I miss him, it’s only been 24 hours, but it feels more like a month. Then there are The Brother’s, Parrise and my lovely Angus, I miss them all dearly. I will go to Den in his sleep tonight, I just hope he isn’t dreaming of having sex with a hundred girls.
    “ Yep, almost done, just this last one.” I say taking a glass of red wine from the tray offered to me. Just as Theo tells me not to, I gulp from the glass.
    “Urh shit, urh, what the... ah that’s blood!”
    I shudder while taking a glass of white wine and downing it to take the metallic taste away.
    “I did try to warn you.” Theo laughs.
    “Not hard enough.” I tell him back with a laugh, as I’m too drunk to care.
    “So where is Mary exactly?” I ask while placing the glass of blood into a Vampires hand with a wink, and getting a laugh in return.
    “She went back to my pack.”
    “Why are you here instead of with them, and don’t say me, I want the real answer.”
    “I have known Richard for many years, he told me about a young woman he was going to punish for taking something of his. So when I found out that you were the girl, I came here to watch over you.”
    “With Mary?” I snort in disbelief.
    “I didn’t know she would react that way.”
    “Bullshit! She hates me for having the life she wanted with the man she wanted. She ruined my life, by taking away everyth ing I ever dreamed of. I should have been the one torturing her!” I tell him angrily.
    “I know Zara; I’m not sticking up for her.”
    “No just shagging her. I just can’t trust you Theo, how do you expect me to, I don’t think even you know what the truth is.”
    “I will prove it to you,” He tells me strongly.
    “Because you want me to be yours?”
    “ Yes, I do, I won’t lie, but that’s not all. I feel the need to protect you, ever since I first laid eyes on you, so that is what I will do.”
    “Problems?” Richard asks, standing beside Theo and me.
    “No, everything’s just peachy. What’s up?” I ask with my tone laced with annoyance. Why does he feel the need to keep popping up all the time?
    “Go away, Theo.” Richard tells him sharply.
    Theo growls at Richa rd loudly, and I give a sigh before I walk away from both men.
    I walk straight out of the ballroom and up the two separate flights of stairs, and to my room on the third floor. All I care about tonight is getting into bed and going to see my Den.

Chapter Three
     
     
    Walking into my bedroom, I throw myself into the bed excitedly, as I will be seeing Den in his dreams soon and seeing Dallah tomorrow. I rip the dress from my body and let it drop to the floor. Shutting my eye’s I’m swallowed into a drunken sleep with a smile on my face.
     
    I find myself in the club that I work in, ‘Whites’ that Sallack owns and it is heaving with people. I’m looking around for Den but I can’t see him. Then I spot him on the dance floor, as I walk over to him everyone disappears, leaving just Den and me, well not me, but the Zara that Den has dreamed up, and boy did he do some dreaming! I look like a freaking goddess.
    “Den?” I call out.
    His head whips around in disbelief just as the dream me disappears from his loving arms.
    “Zara?” He asks confused
