Tangled Moon:

…Kendra returned looking scared. She tightened her white fleece jacket around herself even though it wasn’t that cold. Nick got in and started the engine. The girls seemed confused about who should sit where. Danielle wanted Kendra in the middle, probably to keep her safe. Kendra thought Danielle should be next to him. He checked the rearview mirror, his nerves on edge, wanting to get out of town ASAP.

“Just get in,” he told the both of them.

Kendra slid in next to him and Danielle by the window. He pulled onto the road and drove faster than he should have. He glanced over and noticed Danielle’s eyes were black.

“Baby?”

“Just drive,” she said from between her teeth. 

Every shadow was a monster to Nick. He kept expecting to see them coming out from behind houses or sneaking in through windows. He didn’t know if it was his sixth sense warning him, or his imagination running amok. He pulled onto the gravel road with relief.

“Why are we going to the cabin?” Kendra asked.

“Because we want to keep an eye on you.” Nick checked on Danielle. He could smell her tension.

“Shouldn’t we go to the hospital?”

“You’re better off here,” Nick said.

“But what if I get sick?”

“Danielle and Lothar can take care of it.”

Kendra shifted in her seat. “This is really weird.”

A thud rocked the truck and Kendra screamed.

“Keep driving,” Danielle said, unbuckling her seatbelt.

“What?” The truck swerved as he reached over Kendra to catch her arm.

“Just keep it on the road, will you?”

He checked the rearview mirror. There was someone—something—in the back of the truck. He couldn’t tell in the dark if it was male or female. Danielle opened the window and slipped out.

“What are you doing?” he called.

“Saving your lives.”

Nick clenched his teeth and kept the truck on the road. What was she thinking? She was fragile in her human body.

Then he saw her land on four paws in the back.

The truck lurched again as she wrestled with the vampire. She fell over the tailgate and it leaped after her. Nick hit the brakes, sliding on gravel. He was ready to follow, but Kendra was losing it.

“What the hell is going on here?” she said.

Nick looked through the rearview mirror as the vampire disappeared into the woods. Danielle howled at the sky and ran after it…
