How do I start one of these things? I have no idea to be honest. I guess I will start with the date... January 26th if I am correct. But who cares what day it is when you are immortal.

I hate writing... but I hate my voice as well.

But I hate writing more so I guess I will record my thoughts this way... literally.

I moved into the Chi Zeta Kappa house and... it is nice I suppose. Rhy is pretty much the only one here I can feel I can talk to about anything. The rest of the girls are not real night owls...

*A little laughter here, but there is a pause.*

The human boy... Brandon... well he gave me a necklace a few days ago. I met his boss and he said we were dating, but when we parted that night... Well I have not seen him since. Jade, the other vampiress... er... one of them at least, says he works all the time.

I guess even though I was once a human I do not understand them. He has a limited life as it is, why would he waste it all working? Then again, if he likes doing it who am I to stop him from doing so. I just do not want to watch him work himself to death.

Speaking of Brandon... he used to be dating Rhy. It does not bother me really. She is so in love with Dean it is almost sickening... She gave me the necklace he gave her. Mine is a moonstone pendent as is her's I believe... odly similar. But that does not bother me either...

Tonight Damien was picking on my friend, Dorin, and he brought up Brandon and said that for someone who loves a mortal who will never love me back, I let Dorin pick on mortals a lot.

I do not know what that set off in me, but I cried. I have not really cried in a long time. Sure I have shed a few tears now and then but I felt like my heart was pierced with a stake. He said he did not mean it, but I cannot help but to wonder. I wonder if this is what it is going to be like all the time...

Me, sitting here alone wondering where he has gone to. I have all the time in the world, so I'm not going anywhere, but who is to measure the time he has left and how much of it will be with me.

It is just like old times is it not?

I am still alone. Where has he gone to? I would at least like to know if I scared him off or something. Who am I kidding? Maybe Damien was right...

But I should not believe that. He took it back though. He said that Brandon loved me. I do not know what is going on... I would like to eventually know sometime.

But telling this to a recorder is not going to make him hear that. What is the point of even talking into this thing at all? Maybe it is to help this so called fustration I have.

I cannot go into that tonight. I will sometime in the future. It would be nice to have my life story on something that others can listen to.

I think that is it... I am just going to go...

I saw him this evening... for a few moments before he was taken by the nexus. We did not even have a moment alone. Not one before that damned nexus... damn it. I could not even hug him or anything... it is horrible. It was not enough.

He has been working... which is why I have not seen him. I knew it. Why must he work so much? It bothers Jade, myself, and most likely others as well. Does he not know how to take a day off?

So here I am... alone again.

I am almost jealous of Jade and Rhy... they get to see Damien and Dean a bit...

Fluffy... er... Dorin... does not approve of me being with Brandon. I saw this one coming though. He thinks they are weak like a typical lycan male. It pisses me off though. He does not even know Brandon all that well and he thinks he can judge him like that.

I am not leaving Brandon because someone else thinks I would be going back to the scum of my kind. I would rather be alone than be with another vampire. To be honest I am pretty damn sick of them with their mistresses and power hungry ways.

Dorin has been a great friend of mine for so long, and he knows what he says can get me thinking... but he does have a point when he said I will just end up alone and sad again. What if that happens?

I guess I will find it if and when it does...

I actually drank from a human tonight... and not just any human. It was Brandon. To be honest I have not fed off of a human like that since after the wars and I was able to make the pills and serums to keep my thirst at bay.

I was just simply going to inject the serum and be done with it but Jade mentioned how Brandon liked being bitten... That is odd indeed. She said he was made because she did not bite him before, and it was that Gabe guy again.

I thought if he really did not mind me feeding from him, why not?

But I was still nervous about it. I remember the last time I fed off of a human being.

*There is a long pause... nothing can be heard.*

It was so long ago, but I remember it like it was yesterday.

There was a man. He was strong and handsome and had a vein that protruded from his neck that was just screaming for me to bite. I could not resist. I ended up attacking him and knocking him out cold before drinking from him. His blood was sweet... Brandon reminded me of him but none the less.

Throughout my vampyric life I was always taught that the humans were inferior. Lovers, teachers, and the like have all told me that where I was from. I did not understand it to be honest, but it was something I knew. I was always taught to kill those I drank from... never let them live. Because of this... many humans died because of me, by my hands and blades alone. I have never forgiven myself for it either.

So when I was done drinking from that sweet tasting human man, I stood and he laid lazily on the ground. I studied him. He seemed strong for a human, but he was still human right?

I knelt down beside him and took his head in my hands... I was going to make it painless. A quick snap of his neck and then I would have drug his body to the river and no one would find out correct? Of course after hiding his wounds with slash marks from my blade...

But before I did anything some woman grabbed my hair and pulled me off of him. I was confused and angry and I stood, preparing to kill whatever touched me... but I was shocked to find myself dealing with a human woman. She looked scared but she told me to get away from her husband, that I was a monster and that I could have her insted of him...

I wanted to kill her for simply pulling my hair, she saw me feeding... she was supposed to die with her husband that night, but I did not do it. I simply left them and fled the area...

After that I found donors who would give me vials of their blood so I could take what I needed from it, so I could simply take the pills and inject the serum insted of actually feeding.

But Brandon's blood is so sweet... and he seemed to enjoy it greatly. Almost as much as I enjoyed feeding. If he was a vampire he would make a wonderful one indeed...

It is funny how every vampire is different. Some treat humans like brothers and sisters, some treat them like animals and enslave them, others think of them as a waste and simply kill them off after getting what they needed.

I do not think I will ever forgive myself for what I have done. Should I tell Brandon or Jade? Jade might understand...

I just hope no one finds this thing...

It is the seventh of the second month of this year...

*A small sigh could be heard here.*

I am actually sitting outside right now in the sunlight. I never thought I would be able to do this... but Brandon, that sweet human helped me out by inventing me something that can help me walk around in the sun.

It is nice out and for once I am sitting outside in a bikini as well. Sure, most other people have their coats on, but this feels like summer to me. I have no idea why I feel this way.

*A slight clicking could be heard... obviously her tongue ring.*

Claira is a joy to have at the house... Jade's daughter. I love that little girl. So innocent in that childlike way... It's been way too long since I have been in contact with a child. A half human and vampire mix.. she's a rare one in my eyes. Then again this is Rhy'Din...

I finished reading The Claiming of Sleepy Beauty by Anne Rice... it was pretty good in my opinion. I'll start on the second book soon, but I am going to go to sleep.

Only two days since I last spoke to this thing...

Nothing has happened really. I've been palling around with Claira, her mother, and Damien. I really need to find a job or something... but what would a vampiress piano player, and excellent fighter do for a living?

*A small sigh.*

I don't know... maybe I should try to become a body guard or something... but that would never happen.

I started the second book of that Anne Rice series I am ready, Beauty's Punishment. It is good so far methinks. Everytime Jade see's me reading she picks on me on how it is one of those 'dirty' books.

*A bit of snickering could be heard.*

Oh well. It's nice to kind of lounge around all day... I've been cleaning and cooking a little as well to kind of help do my part... keeping Claira occupied is also a huge favor methinks.

But that is about it for now... I'm going to go find something to eat.

I am finally able to see Brandon a bit more... he is such a sweet young one, and sometimes I do not understand why he tolerates to be around me.

I still have yet to let him know of my past.

That will come in time.

But Brandon has a twin... things may be a bit more difficult now with that. I really don't think William likes me too much.

Oh well...

That is all.

It is Valentines day... I know this because Brandon got me this beautiful ruby ring. It is facinsating to simply look at... I absolutly love it but he said that he would be giving me another present tonight.

I wonder what he is giving me tomorrow...

But I do know what I am giving him, and it cannot be wrapped.

Anyways... more good things, Rhy is engaged. Dean gave her a ring with a heart shaped diamond on it. I must admit the man has good taste. I am going to go dress shopping with Jade and Rhy sometime to pick out Rhy's dress. I am very happy for her. She is so in love with Dean! Maybe I will get to meet his son, Daniel.

But anyways... last night I ran into the vampire who turned me and took me under his wing for years so I could learn how to survive as a vampire... Well I discovered it was Darkmere. I knew I was related to him some how... turns out I am his blooded daughter. I am one of his children according to him. When he asked me about the black dragon pendent on my cloak he showed me his and then it sort of came together from there. I gave him a hug and everything. It is nice to see him again.

Well it is time for my daily dose of ice cream...

It's been a while since I have talked to this thing. I have another batch of good news, Jade is engaged. So now I'm the only one who isn't engaged at the moment.

But that doesn't bother me. Brandon still works a lot, he thinks he found something to cure that heart problem of his. I'm glad for that.

Mostly I have been hanging out here with Claira. She is such a joy to pal around the house with. We hang out in my room, or in hers. She has so much energy!

Well I am going to go... say bye Claira!

Byes!!!

...

He's missing. Brandon is. It hurts so much. I can't even begin to describe it. Maybe it wouldn't hurt so bad if I knew that I couldn't have done anything about it, but I could. I should have carried him away when I sensed the danger, but I...

*And for a few moments, only sobbing could be heard.*

I didn't! This is all my fault. I would have Claira come down to cheer me up but I don't want the little one to see me in such a state. Rhy tried to cheer me up, but that didn't work out so well.

*There was a pause before she started again.*

It's all my fault...

*And all there was, was sobbing for moments before another female voice, Rhy's could be heard.*

Ly...? Oh come here.

Rhy?

Yes?

Is this my fault?

No... it couldn't be. Brandy wouldn't want you blaming yourself...

Jade said Brandon is with Miss Mary Read as of right now... he needs to be protected and what not. I don't see why anyone would want to hurt him. He doesn't even believe in violence himself, but then again he is very valuable to the Bonny Corp.

To be honest I'm not happy about this, I would rather have him with me, but if he is being watched carefully enough I suppose I wont say anything to Miss Read, however when Brandon returns I demand an explination.

If I can't find him while he's under Mary's care... no one could, so I suppose he is in good hands...

Claira is here, I promised Jade I would watch her while she was....

*A pause as the girl spoke up.*

While Mommy is what, Ly?

While mommy is entertaining Damien.

Oh...

Say goodbye Claira.

Buh bye!!!

Brandon came back from Miss Read's offices but with guards on him like crazy... I was just so happy to see him. He also told me he had really, really good news. He is healed of his heart condition!

*And another voice come in after some movement sounds.*

Ly?

Yeah Claira?

Can we go swimming?

Sure... give me a sec.

Okies!

*And there is a chuckle from Lyren.*

And I wonder why I hated kids so much...

Nothing much has been going on in the past few days. My birthday is drawing closer. I'll be three hundred and eighteen years old. My how time flys when you're a vampire. Right?

Last night a fellow named Tristen came into the inn and was calling Jade and I gorgeous and he was trying to talk to me. I found out he was a Pi Boy... figures. That's where all those ones come from right? All the cute, sweet ones like Cole.

He's adorable!

I can't wait to see Brandon again. I miss him a lot. The last time I saw him he was upset that he accidently killed a young boy due to a miscalculation with his machine. Brandon is so sweet and fragile it seems. He killed one and I've killed...

Way too many.

I told him not to worry about it. What would Brandon think if he knew of how many people I've actually killed without mercy? I don't think he'd think different of me because that was so long ago, but he's a pacifist and doesn't fight at all.

It kind of makes me feel like a monster.

And Franco thinks I'm trashy... which is just great. I don't sleep around, make brale or whatever, I stay with one guy and I like to think of myself as level headed.

Sure the appearance is a little Trashy... But the Chi girls aren't Trashy.

We're just a tad different.

Just as Brandon is back home and safe in my arms someone else just had to threaten that. Rain is back... a lycan who has held a grudge with me for over a century. She is threatening to kill Brandon as I killed her mate, who in actuality... killed mine.

This is crazy. I'm worried sick here about him and now I know I cannot leave him out of my own sight. If something happens to him because of this I know I'll never forgive myself. He seems so fragile because he's still human. I love him, I really do, but I don't want him around me if it means him getting hurt. I want the best for him, and whatever he decides I will be perfectly ok with... I suppose. I want him with me but that sounds so selfish.

My old mate, Alexander, was so strong. He didn't... he wasn't breakable like Brandon was. I never had to worry about killing him like I do with Brandon. One slip up and he could die in my arms and I would never forgive myself. I love Brandon, but I miss Alexander. I always will... a part of me will always do that. I want to turn Brandon sometimes because it would mean he wouldn't be so breakable. He would be even stronger than he is now. But I want what is best for him more...

I'm going to go find him... and try to keep that Lycan away from him. There is no way she is going to take him from me.

Perhaps I am what is best for Brandon... I mean. The way he held me last night as we just laid together was almost too much. I almost started to cry.

But I do need to find a way to control this thirst thing better. The scent of all these people, hearing their heartbeats and feeling the warmth of their blood radiate from their skin is enough to drive me insane. Half of the time I just want to go insane and start feeding off of these people.

I think I scared Rhy though... I explained to her how hard it is for me sometimes, and that is why I lock myself in my room. I feel like such a monster but Brandon said I'm not.

Tonight Tristen was being so sweet with Jade... I mean it was really cute. He gave her a rose thing that was the same color as her eyes and sparkled. Maybe he's not all bad boy like he says he is. I think he has a huge soft spot...

Dean and Rhy almost make me sick... but they're just cute enough to make me go 'Awww..' One of these days though I think I'm going to probably hurl while watching them be all cute and lovey.

They're going to make it one way or another. Rhy and Dean. They're too good together.

Brandon is coming back in... talk later.

A bit has happened since I spoke to you last. Rain has promised she would be after Brandon... so I have been with him when he hasn't been in the care of Miss Read. I have been busy, that is why I haven't touched this thing in a long time.

Rhy and Dean are married and Rhy told me she was expecting a little one to be running around soon. Compared to my long life it seems like they just met... but what do I know. I'm only three hundred and eighteen years old. They deserve eachother! They're wonderful people!

Jade and Tristen aren't going to happen I guess. Ah well. Jade knows what she's doing. I'm going to be around here more often pretty soon. Once I sink my teeth into Rain of course. She's nothing but a dog you know. Easy fight. Promise.

I miss Claira... I am going to go bug her now.

It's over... Brandon and I. I never saw him and I couldn't stand being alone. I feel horrible because I told him that I would be able to wait forever, but I couldn't. I need someone who I can actually see. He cried though, Lang said that I need a real man...

I knew that it wouldn't last long.

It's been so long since I have bothered to take this thing out of its box, and I am glad I decided to tonight. I have been so depressed since Brandon and all of Rhy'Din knows it... but lately I have been talking to a certin vampire who I have taken a fancy to.

Oryan...

Isn't that a handsome name? He is very handsome too. I can connect with him so well. We're both vampires and he understands what it's like to be alone in this world. He knows how much Brandon hurt me, and infact he was there when I talked to Brandon again. I told him that maybe we could someday be together... but I doubt it. He deserves something better than me... something so much more than me.

I'm just a vampire. I drink bloods and at heart I am a cold blooded killer. Oryan knows and doesn't judge me. Hopefully I will see him again tomorrow evening and possibly introduce him to Darkmere and Jade... maybe Rhy if her pregnant ass ever comes around...

I have to go. He's here helping me baby sit... the poor man is being tackled by kids!
