It's funny what the loss of a loved one does to a man. Five years ago a vampire took from me the one thing I loved the most my wife. She was my childhood sweetheart the only woman I have ever loved. My name is Jake I was once a cop I enjoyed my job helping people doing good. Now I hunt vampires with my connections in law enforcement allow me to operate above the law. Every now and agian they call me in to help fix a problem they have. The vampire nation they hate me they fear me I'm too unpredictable that makes me dangerious. I'm on my way home tommarow is my wedding anniversay I alway make a point to go home to pay my respects to my wife and renew my mission of vengance against the vampire race.

Jake drove all night to try to get home in time for his anniversary. This was the one time a year that he could let his feelings out. The closer to home he got the more he remembered about the night they found his wife dead. As he looked down at his wedding band that he still wears to remind him of his former life and what they taken away from him. When he entered town it was like the truck was on autopilot heading straight to the grave yard where his wife's body rests. Rounding a turn he slows down pulling into the grave yard his eyes quickly scanning the sea of marble and granite to remember where her stone was. A large maple tree shades her grave he knew he was there a pulled the truck over to a stop.

Jake got out of the truck quickly grabbing the red rose on the seat next to him. Slowly he made his way up to her stone a white cross with Celtic designs. Dropping to his knees he started to cry as he placed the rose at the base of the stone. "I miss you my love" he sobs " I think of you everyday." Tears running down his face he wondered why and what would have been if he could of stopped his wife's death. " I will kill every one of the bastards that I see for you." he says clinching his fists. Jake sat there for hours staring at the cross and crying. The sun starting to set Jake knew it was time to move on slowly making his way back to his truck looking back at the stone from time to time the hate started to return. Taking one final look at the stone before pulling off Jake decided to go home for a change. The house that they just bought months before her death. The drive seamed to take hours to there old house as jake pulled into the driveway. " I should have sold this place." he mumbles but tonight he was gonna sleep there till he figured out where to go to next.

Walking up to the front door he noticed something strange. Someones been here echos threw his head as he pulls out his trusty 45 caliber pistol he walks into the house. Walking threw the house the empty house only furniture remain all of the pictures of them packed away too painful for him to see. Jake made his way upstairs to the bedroom as he notices a picture.Bending down the picture was his wife and him at there wedding. He could tell that the picture was just placed there was no dust on it like the rest of the house it was clean like it was just pulled out of a photo album. He climbed into bed holding the picture stroking her face with his thumb. " God I miss you, you was so beautiful that day." Staring at the picture Jake slowly drifts off to sleep.

Anna couldnt particually belive her eyes. She'd been to the graveyard, hoping her victim from two nights previous would have woken up by now. Looked like she'd drank too much from him and actually killed him. Bummer. Then she'd wandered over to her grave. she'd vistied often, as a morbid tribute to the woman she had been, and the woman she wished she could be again.
There on the marble lay rose. Picking it up she felt in the roses fibres that it was laced with sadness anger and a familiar scent. Jake.
She held the rose tight to her chest. and wondered where he'd be. She so desperately wanted to see him. 'can he have come home?' she wondered, hoping that maybe he'd returned to the house. From what she had seen he still owned it. MAny days she'd hidden inside the safe walls, hoping he would come back, but he never had. As quick as a flash she used her shape shifting abilities to transform into a dark mist, dissapearing, and reappearing in the hallway of their house. She gingerly started to take steps up the stairs, and towards the bedroom. With her erves runiing so strongly through her body she tripped, nocking a samll table and vase from it perch. It wobbled and dropped onto the floor smashing loudly.

Hearing the crash of the vase jake quietly woke up. Pulling out his 45 softly standing up. Thoughts raced thru his who could it be. Jake slowly opened the door to the hallway to investigate. Hugging the wall in the hall way he slowly makes his way to the stairs his adrenaline pumping. Rounding the last corner Jake knew that there was somebody in the stairwell. His 45 loaded with silver hollow points he quickly aimed at the figure in the stairwell. " You just fucked with the wrong house." he says pullling back the hammer of his 45.

A few seconds after the almighty smash, the hall way flooded with emotions that hit Anna like a ton of bricks. Fear, anger and sorrow. All coming from Jake. She scrambed to her feet, and saw him standing pointing his gun towards her. Since when did he carry a big gun like that? And why? He'd never liked touse violence as a police officer. She quickly utilised her shapeshifting abilities again, turning into the smoke she had previously, but instead of moving miles, she manifested again in the kitchen.
She leant against the sideboard, her undead heart beating violently against her chest. He was here. And she wanted nothing more than to run back upstairs and wrap her arms around him, never letting go. But he belived she was dead and buried, and though she was dead, she wasnt buried.
She heard his footsteps down the stairs, angry and menacing. suddenly the dorr flew open and she ducked, hiding behind the counter. She had two choices, she let him see her or she fled again.

That's messed up I must be losing it as he sat down on the steps. Running his hands threw his hair, He looks at the vase. Must be a lose shelf or something . Looks up at the ceiling and mutters " See what happens when I decide to stay here." Jake walks back to the bedroom and lays down in bed. He grabs the picture he found earlier and begins to stroke it with his thumb. " Anna I miss you I wish that Blood sucking son of a bitch would have killed me and not you." He places his 45 in the nightstand beside him. Clutching the picture from there wedding Jake falls into a deep sleep.

Anna stood again, and decided to leave. She walked to the door, and then looked back to the stairway. She needed to see him up close. She started up the stairs. quieter this time, avoiding the glass, and making an effort not to nock anything over this time. She reached their bedroom, and quietly opened the door. She looked at him, asleep on his side of the bed. He was fast asleep but she knew it was a troubled sleep. She'd spent years watching him asleep and with the nature of his job he often had nights like this.
she moved over to the bed, sitting by him, and reaching out to touch his face. Her thumb stroked his cheek, and he instantly relaxed. "Ive missed you so much" she whispered. She leant forward, kissing him lightly on the forehead, and then stood up. She took the rose from her pocket, and left it on the beside table, next to the picture. "I love you" she said before fading back into the shadows.

A few hours later Jake started to wake up he wanted to sleep but just couldn't. His eyes slowly adjusting he noticed something that was not there a few hours before. "What the hell" as he picked up the rose. Someone was here last night he quickly pulled his 45 out of the nightstand and did a check of the house. He sat down in the kitchen and looked at the rose.' Somebody's fucking with me and I don't like it one bit." He started to rub his head and began to think I'll stay here for a few days and see if my guest comes back with a sneer. He took the rose to his truck and laid it on the seat and grabbed his bag of tricks out of the truck. He went back inside and got to work setting up a few hidden cameras and running them to his laptop. The first one he put in the stairs the second in the kitchen and the last one in his bedroom. He checked the feeds and smiled into one of the hidden units come back tonight and I will find out who or what you are.

Later that day Jake returned the rose to Anna's grave he gave it a kiss and placed it on the ground. "I hope it stays here this time "he says. tonight I will be ready for whoever shows up. Walking back to the truck all jake could do is wonder what clan is after him and why did they not kill him when they had the chance last night was there one in a million shot to do it. One the way back to the house Jake stopped to get some coffee he was gonna be awake this time he hoped whoever it was would show up. Jake pulled up to his house as the sun started to set walking up stairs to his bedroom pulling a chair in one of the dark corners and sat there and waited. his 45 in his lap pointed at the doorway.

When Anna rose the next night She was filled with exitement. She was going to see Jake again, just as she'd done the night before. She knew she could not reveal her true form to him, but she had every intention of being a, guardian angel. She started to brush her long red hair as she walked over to her bags. She'd found a nice little Tomb in the graveyard. Very steriotypical but safe, and dry plus No-one could get in but her. She sifted throgh her clothes, finding a black dress, long with red flowers climbing the side, she remembered that Jake had bought her that dress when they had been shopping on their honeymoon. She thought back to those gorgeous memoires of sitting in the sun, kissing and touching eachother like they never wanted to stop.
After she'd gotten dressed she headed out, across town straight to the house. She aroached, the house filled with angry emotions radiating right out into the street. She used the shadows to slip under the door way. She looked around, seeing that there was a new household feature. Cameras. She looked upto them. She'd obviously spooked him, but she let out a little chuckle. At least he still wouldnt see her. The camera's lense was silver backed, alot like the way a mirror would be. The only thing he would be able to pick up would be shadows, and maybe a bit of mist. Things that only someone who knew what they were looking for would notice.
She started up the stairs slowly, noticing he'd cleaned up the glass. She smiled until she felt his emotions coming through the door way. He was awake and on guard.

As sat there watching the door He thought of Anna. Holding the picture that he found he starred at Anna's face. Her long red hair soothed him they spent many happy nights in this room. He closed his eyes and started to cry the pain comming back to him his tears flowing like a river. "Anna I miss you" he sobs "I wish that I could hold you one last time. " His hands running thru his hair." Why I wish I could have been here with you that night".Looking into the picture he lowers his head. " I would have rather died to protect you that to keep living with out you." I hate hunting these blood suckers" as he clinches his fists " I will not stop till one of them kills me or I kill all of them this I swear to you Anna. He laid his 45 on the floor beside him as he sat in the chair stairing into the picture. Looking at his watch dam I have been here for only 2 hours its gonna be a long night he thought to himself.

The emotions Anna felt went from intense anger to intense sorrow, and her empathy made her chest tighten. She walked over to the doorway, using the shadows to enter the room, and staying in that form. SHe saw Jake, his eyes upon the picture infront of him. She looked down at it. One of their wedding photos. Infact her favourite one. She'd been dressed on a white lacey dress, and him in a suit. the picture showed them kissing on the alter. They had both been so happy and waited so long for that moment.
Moving her shadow form closer to him she looked at him. Her heart sank seeing how sad he was. After all this time he still missed her. She leaned forward and kissed his cheek softly, hoping that he wouldnt spot the shadow, but feel her kiss. Then she moved away back towards the wall and watched him.

Looking at the picture of them on there wedding day Jake felt her lips on his cheek. He looked around the room. I must be losing my mind as he rubbed his cheek. Must be my mind playing tricks on me he said. Slumping down into his chair. Talking to the picture " I remember our first date Anna I knew then I was in love with you." thinking back to there first date a long drive up the coast to a little sea food joint. " I was so nervous that night, Anna when I saw you I didn't think I had a chance in the world with you." Putting his head in his hands he starts to cry. "Anna I love you " he said as he picked up the picture and kissed it. He let out a little laugh Look Anna still have my wedding band on showing it to the the picture. ''Look at me " he says "sitting here talking to a picture I hate coming back here everything around this town reminds me of you." Leaning his head back in the chair he tries to calm himself down.

"I remember" she sighed, quietly as not to alarm him. She didnt reveal her form, but stayed in the shadows. She Looked down at her own finger, seeing that her band was still there too. She'd kept hers on as a reminder of what she had before, and a reminder that while she may be a different person her body and heart still belonged to Jake.
She felt bad for not trying harder to find him before this. When she'd woken in her crypt she'd been terrifed, and the vampire that had turned her had sent a few of his other victims to show her the ropes, and then let her go, be free. She'd gone straight home to find that the place was empty of Jake. She'd made a concious decision then that he had ran away for himself and he needed to. be away. She'd made a mistake obviously.
"Please dont cry" she choked, watching him sitting in his chair. It was plain to see he was still broken. She started to shift towards him again, and knelt before him, letting him see the glint of her eyes.

He looked up and thought he was hearing things . He closed his eyes "I can't help it, Anna I miss you." He opened his eyes to see her's right in front of him. " I must be dreaming "he says as he slowly reached out for her but nothings there. It must be a dream he says that's it a dream trying to reassure himself. Oh god I wish this was real I must have dozed off. "Anna I killed the bastard who killed you I tracked him down in New York. He suffered Anna I made sure of it. I wiped out his whole fucking clan." "If you was only here and not in my mind Anna " Siting in the chair looking into nothing ness where he thought he saw her .

She smiled. At least he hadnt freaked out. She wondered if he was as strong as she had known, she wondered if he could handle seeing her again. She started to let her true form through, re-appearing infront of him. She smiled, reaching her hand out onto his. "You killed him?" she asked, Her piercing blue eyes scanning his face. "Then you know what i am."
She smiled waiting for his reaction. She could feel emotions bubbling up inside her. She moved closer, her hands moving up and cupping his face. "i missed you"

No, he sobbed you can't be I buried you I saw your body. I have hunted vampires for the last 5 years .Anna you can't be one. please tell me I'm dreaming. A floodgate of emotions ran over Jake half of him wanted to kill her the other half did not care that she was a vampire and that half was winning. You know I'm a hunter now I kill your kind now Anna. I thought you was dead as he took her hands in his. God I miss you Anna.

Anna stood up and took a step back. "You kill my kind?" She felt angry, betrayed. "why would you do that? My kind, were not all evil....."
She looked down at him. His face covered in tears. Her anger started to drift away a little. "So i'm a vampire. are you going to kill me?" she asked. She sat on the bed and folded her arms. She felt like she'd been catapulted into the past to one of their arguments. They hadnt had many, but the ones they did have were intense. "Have i made the right choice in coming back to you?"

He sat there in shock not knowing what to do. He lowered his head, "Yes Anna
I kill vampires over the past 5 years I have probably killed around five maybe six hundred. I thought you was dead so I went after your killer. I had no clue that he turned you. As he sat there in his chair he glanced down at his 45 just for a second. "Anna I can't kill you even if I wanted to I could not. I love you too much honey.

Your still as beautiful as ever he said looking into her eyes. He thought to himself I have a second chance here but was not sure what to do. You know what Red I know your pissed at me for making the choice that I did but what would you have done if the roles would be reversed . Looking deep into her eyes he knew she had not changed much the same anna that he married. He knew that she could not stay mad at him. He slowly got up and walked to the bed. Remember when we first mad love on this bed? As he sat down on the bed next to her. He took off his shirt I'm not gonna hurt you anna but if you want here it is. Moving his head to the side exposing his neck you can stop al my pain Anna end my life. He was hoping that she would not bite him but that was Jake always a risk taker. He looked at her well I'm right here unarmed anna.

She looked at him exposing himself to her. She reached out and touchined his neck softly with her cold finger tips. "I cant. Not right now. Do you know what your asking of me?" she sighed. And looked down at her feet. I wouldnt have chosen this lifestyle for myself. its hard and desolate. Can you remember when we were on our honeymoon an we walked along the beach at sun set, and watched the sun rise? Its things like that- things like that you'll miss, and want."
she let out another long sigh. "it would be selfish of me to take your life when you could have so much more than me. you deserve that"

You was my life Anna everything I did I did for you. As he looks into her eyes , Anna we have a second chance here as he took her hand in his I don't want to regret and let it pass me by. Anna so many people want me dead I might not be alive for long anyway. Running his fingers thru her long red hair, Anna do you still love me he asks. Anna let me hold you one last time before I go.

Anna Looked back to him, her heart going out to him in every way shape and form. She sank into his arms, her hands grasping hold on his body and holding him tight to her. She kissed his hand softly.
"I love you so much, and i never stopped loving you, but what am i supposed to do? turning you into what i am would be an eternal punishment for a crime you did not commit".
She stopped speaking and enjoyed his embrace.
it was something that she hadnt had for so long and she ust wanted to take every essance in.

Jake sat there taking in her beauty even in death she was just as beautiful as the day they were married. " Anna I want to spend the night with you." Knowing that he could be killed or captured by vampires. His hands stroked her cold skin it excited him just to touch her after 5 years it was like a dream come true. " After 5 years Anna I never thought I would be touching your beautiful face again. Jake sat there looking into her eyes, They told a different story than other vampires most where hollow and black hers was full of love for him.

Jake thought to himself how much he would like for this night to never end. He also knew that he could not kill his wife he did a lot of horrible things in the past 5 years but he could not kill his wife.

Anna looked down at her watch. it was just after 2am. "I can stay a little while, but i need to leave before sunrise" SHe pushed him back onto the bed, and almost jumped on him. She kissed him deep;y, her lips moulding softly to his, and opening a little to let him taste her again.
her fingers ran down his body to the bottom of his shirt, pulling it up, and over his head. She then removed her jacket, and started to undo the buttons at the front of her dress, slowly as she had done the fisr time she'd worn it for him.

Jake remembered the dress he knew it was the one that he bought her on there honeymoon. His hands all over her body just like the first time she wore that dress. Jake loved how it accented her slim sexy body leaving very little to the imagination.

Anna's kiss took him back to the days when they were married he could not believe that he was kissing his wife and in his mind that's what she was his wife not a vampire it was Anna the woman he loved with all his heart and soul. Anna's kiss was a sweet as ever gradually tasting her lips with his as his tongue slowly parting her lips. Jake's hands slowly caressing her ass like he knew she liked. Breaking from the kiss looking into her eyes Jake said " Anna I missed you I have never even thought about another woman. I love you Anna." When Anna died Jake knew that he would not love another as much as he did Anna. A few tears fell from Jake's eyes he thought that this would be the last time that he would ever touch his wife.

Anna wiped away his tears and then took off her dress, revealing that she wore silky black panties and matching bra. She wrapped her arms around him and kissed his lips, trailing kisses down his jawline and His neck, and his shoulders. She rubbed against him gently, "i love you too, i missed you so much she said, enjoying his hands all over her. She kissed him frantically.
