"Stormy, wake up! We're getting ready to land" I called, knocking on the lid of her coffin. It was sunset and we would be landing. She got up and I helped her make sure she was presentable. "I don't know about you Katie but I'm so ready to see Alexander" Stormy told me. "Yes and to finally meet this girlfriend that he can't stop talking about" I replied. My name is Katherine Elizabeth Sterling or Katie Beth for short. I have my parents, my twin brother, Alexander, and my little sister, Athena or Stormy as she likes to be called. I am slightly different because unlike my parents or siblings, who are vampires, I am 100% human. I eat normal foods, have a heartbeat, everything my family doesn't.

Mom and Dad still love me very much even though I'm mortal. They are hoping and searching for a vampire of nobility who would take me in a covenant ceremony, our form of a wedding. I didn't want to be taken by someone that I couldn't love because a covenant ceremony bonds the vampire and the one bitten together forever and by law; I had to be turned by a mate. I knew there was one vampire I did not want to be bound with and that was Jagger Maxwell, the oldest brother to the girl, Luna, who would have been my brother's bride. She had been born human like me and the Maxwell's wanted Alexander to turn her but he stood her up at the altar. Both Stormy and I knew he must have had his reasons but she was still disappointed that she didn't get to be the flower girl.

She and I finally started gathering our bags and we saw Jameson waiting on the tarmac by a Mercedes. "Jameson" we called, glad to see our butler. "Madame Katherine and Madame Athena; look at you two. You'd better come on. Alexander and Miss Raven are waiting" Jameson told us. "Who is Raven" Stormy asked. "Is she the girlfriend" I asked. "Actually; Raven is Alexander's bride to be" Jameson announced before adding "Oh; I wasn't supposed to say anything. Please, act surprised." "We will" we both answered, helping get our trunks and Stormy's coffin in the trunk. We got in the car and Jameson took us to the family house. We talked about our journey and how mom and dad been since their return from visiting Alexander a few weeks ago. We finally came to the mansion that we had on Benson Hill.

Jameson stopped the car and we helped him get our stuff in the house after he told us Alexander and Raven were waiting in the backyard. We had been told that Raven had decorated our rooms with tips from Alexander. When we had a chance to see them and settle in and unpack; we came downstairs & found our brother with a petite girl that was decked out in sweet goth attire that Stormy and I could only dream about wearing. "Alexander" we both called, tackling him to the ground. "How are my sisters doing" he asked, hugging us both tightly before we asked "Is this the girlfriend you've written about & made that beautiful painting of that you sent?"

"She's my fiancée now" Alexander answered. We learned about how they met and of the many times Alexander had to become Raven's knight in goth armor. They were now planning for their covenant ceremony and wanted to have it while we were here. Stormy and I were both thrilled. I promised Raven I'd do her hair and makeup and Stormy would get to scatter the flowers around the coffin like she had always wanted to do. Alexander and Raven told us about the new dance club called 'The Crypt' that had just opened up. As tired as I was; I always loved an adventure so I went upstairs to change and we left. I had no idea what I was about to be in for tonight.
