Frantic Phone Calls
                Adam stood recording music with his equipment then paused when the phone rang. He turned off the power and removed his headphones when it rang again and put down his instrument walking over picking it up, “Hello?”
                “Adam? Thank God, I don’t know who else to call.” Jeremy’s voice said.
                “How the hell did you get this number?” Adam demanded.
                “I have Dani’s phone you’re in her contacts. Look, Dani’s in trouble.” He said quickly. “Please, can you meet me somewhere? Not her apartment, they’ll probably be there by now. Can you meet me at the parkway off of Main on 77^th?”
                “They who? What the fuck is going on?” He demanded. “Where’s Dani?”
                “Just, hurry. There won’t be much time.” Then the phone went dead. Adam frowned starring at it, then tossed it away running to his room.
Dire Situation
                Adam arrived seeing Jeremy pacing outside his car. Adam parked and got out as Jeremy ran over to him. When he got closer, Adam could see a huge black bruise on his face. “Where’s Dani?”
                “She was taken from the hospital. They weren’t military but they were trained like military. When I saw them take her I tried to stop them and that’s how I got this.” He said motioning towards his face, “When I woke up she and those people were gone. She was unconscious when I saw them carrying her out.” He explained quickly.
                This was Adam’s worst fear come true. “Do they know? Do they know what she is?”
                “I don’t know for certain but why else would they abduct her like that unless they knew?” Jeremy said quickly.
                “Tell me everything. Everything that happened from beginning to end.” Reaching out he snatched Dani’s phone out of his hand and dialed. Jeremy seemed as if he was going to say something but Adam held up a finger to shush him while he was on the phone.
Abducted
                Dani groaned finding there was bright light shining directly on her. She could feel it on her skin and made her eyes hurt even though they were closed. She felt weak and sore all over and didn’t have the strength to raise her hand to cover her face to block the painful blinding light. “Adam?” She whispered her throat dry and sore.
                “She’s responsive.” A female voice said, “Color in her lips and skin continues to fade. Readings remain consistent.”
                “This is such an unprecedented find. Continue to the monitor her readings for another day. If her conditions continue to decline we will have to feed her before brain function becomes severely impaired. How long has it been since she’s had blood?” The male voice asked.
                “Almost 5 days now. Her decline has increased since we’ve taken samples for testing. However, she should heal and her body should restore itself when she’s given fresh blood. So far we’ve only found a few differences from the standard Nosferatu. We’ve never found one with purple iris’s before and of course what brought her to our attention in the first place . . . is impossible.” The woman responded.
                “Good. Keep me updated on everything. Find out what makes her so different from other vampires. This could be the next step in their evolution.” He said.
                It was the last thing Dani heard being said. There was a sharp pain in her arm and soon she was out again.
Meetings
                Jeremy was in the MRI room in the basement of the hospital running diagnostics on the equipment and making notes of it before calibrating the system. He stood from his desk and turned to find Eve and Adam standing before him. “You know, Dani did that appearing out of thin air thing to me too.” He offered his hand to Eve, “I’m Jeremy. You must be Eve. Dani talks about you a lot.”
                Even smiled and shook his hand, “It’s very nice to meet you. Dani has spoken of you to me as well.”
                Adam decided that was enough pleasantries, “Something happened to alert those people and drew their attention to Dani. She’s been very careful to keep hidden with a few lapses in judgment.” He said giving Jeremy a look still not pleased that she had told him about them, “Now think.”
                Jeremy sighed and crossed his arms having thought about this long and hard already. “She came in to have the procedure to take care of the anomaly that was causing all of her medical issues. Except they stopped midway through the procedure. They didn’t tell Dani why, they wouldn’t tell me either.”
                “Why would they just stop like that? From what I understand it’s a simple outpatient procedure with little risk of side effects.” Eve said.
                “And it is. All they were going to do was to remove the obstruction. The only reason they would stop so abruptly . . . isn’t supposed to be possible from what he’s told me. So I can’t be certain . . . .”
                “Wait.” Adam said stopping him, “What reason?”
                “If when they went in with the camera and found there was actually something there and not just an empty gestation sack, they would have to stop until further study could determine what was to be done.” He explained.
                Eve and Adam just stared at him in silence for several moments, “Jeremy.” Eve began when he turned back to the computer and started typing in codes, “We can’t have children. Vampire bodies are not life giving vessels.” She said seriously.
                Jeremy sighed and turned his monitor towards them so they could see the image. “They deleted everything pertaining to Dani, but they didn’t clear the system after her procedure was canceled.” He changed the contrast and paused it. Eve and Adam moved closer staring at the image in disbelief.
                “Is that . . .”
                “It’s a child.” Eve said as there was no mistaking the figure on the screen. “Is it alive?”
                “I don’t know. If it is, then it was in the files that they confiscated or destroyed. It would have been a reason to stop the procedure so abruptly without warning or explanation.” Jeremy responded.
                “Dani’s pregnant.” Adam said in astonishment.
                Eve looked at him just as speechless, “You’re a father Adam.”
                “That’s impossible.” Adam said never moving his eyes from the screen, “Even if she is somehow capable of offspring, I’m not.”
                “Has she been with anyone else?” Eve questioned.
                “She said not in several years, but what other explanation could there be?” He responded.
                “If Dani told you that then it’s the truth. She doesn’t lie about that sort of thing.” Jeremy said.
                “It’s not a moral judgment you ass, its simple fact. I can’t father children.” Adam snapped.
                “Well if she hadn’t been abducted I could have run a DNA test for you but she’s missing right now!” Jeremy said his voice raising.
                “Stop it. Both of you, right now.” Eve said sternly getting in between them, “This isn’t helping Dani or helping us to get her back! We can worry about the why’s and how’s after she’s been safely returned home.” She shook her head, “First and foremost we need to find out who took her and where they’re holding her now.”
                “Who else knows about vampires? Like actually knows that you guys exist?” Jeremy questioned. “Those people were from some kind of organization that knew how to handle vampires quickly, quietly and efficiently.”
                “We’ve always stayed away from anyone or anything that could identify us. It’s why to most we are dismissed as myth and legend.” Eve replied, “But the connection has to be through the hospital. Either someone told them about her or they’ve been monitoring hospitals for even small whispers of our kind.”
                “Dani has been very diligent in covering her tracks. It must have been something or someone to do with that procedure that alerted them. However, I was under the impression that the hospital systems were on a closed circuit.” Adam said looking to Jeremy.
                “Not since we’ve gone digital on almost everything. Transferring records from different facilities and most patient records are kept on a system that is shared with other hospitals throughout the country.” Jeremy explained. “It wouldn’t be too hard for an organization like that to tap into the system and monitor it.”
                Adam sighed, “Dani would know how to find out. She’s ridiculously brilliant in most things when it comes to zombie technology.”
                “Well, there’s another way.” Jeremy began before looking at them, “If they took her because she’s not only a vampire, but also pregnant . . . . they most likely already know the only human attributes it shares would be the same ones that Dani has. Leftover from before she became one of you guys.” He pointed out. “They’ll realize that the father wasn’t human either and they’ll be looking for him.”
Captivity
                Dani opened her eyes finding herself in a darkened room. As she woke a bit more she felt as though she wanted to vomit, like she was choking. Her hand reached up feeling something taped into her mouth. She ripped the tape away and began to pull it. Much to her dismay she found it was a feeding tube that went down into her stomach and quickly jerked it out all the way. She was lying on what seemed like a medical table. There were leads, wires and tubs attached all over her and she immediately tore them out and off of her. Pushing the bed rail down she got up looking around. Aside from the bed the small room was completely bare and made of cement. There was a drain in the center of the floor and one wall that was made of glass. She looked down at herself seeing she had been dressed in plain white thin patient scrubs.
                She moved to the large window panel and put her hand on it leaning closer trying to see anything outside that could tell her where she was and what was going on. “STEP AWAY FROM THE GLASS.” A loud voice said filling the cell causing Dani to jump back. This was looking more and more like a government conspiracy inside a horror movie.
                Just then a man in a white coat accompanied by a nurse appeared on the other side of the window. “It looks like our new patient is awake at last.” He said looking at her.
                “Who are you?” Dani said stepping closer to the glass, “What am I doing here?”
                “You are incredibly special Miss Dani. It’s been almost 20 years since we’ve had a live specimen to work with. We’ve made incredible advances in our technology. We’re very excited.” The man responded not really answering her question.
                “What do you mean ‘live specimen’?” She looked around realizing that she herself was in a cage, “You mean ME?!”
                “Vampires are somewhat reclusive. They young ones don’t last very long and the older ones have learned how to stay off grid and go undetected. There is a very narrow window of opportunity to acquire one before they die or disappear.” He said talking to the woman standing beside him who was writing on a clip board. Dani stared at him in disbelief.
                “Excuse me!” Dani said tapping on the glass, “American citizen here growing ever more annoyed that she’s being kept in a box on display against her wishes!”
                “Oh, I’m sorry Miss Dani. Your American rights and citizenship expired the same day you did.” The doctor said. “I’m afraid you are little more than a body donated for science.” He turned to the nurse, “Let’s have a full neurological and psychiatric work up. Then we can begin our test runs to see how she responds to them.” He looked up at Dani, “Just one question we would like to ask you before we begin.” He stepped closer to the window, “You’ve been repeating the name ‘Adam’ over and over every since you were brought from the hospital. Tell me Dani, who is Adam?” She clinched her jaw refusing to answer any questions. “Is Adam your mate? The one who made you into a vampire perhaps?”
                Dani took a step back in defiance refusing to budge. She would never betray Adam and risk his being captured by these people too.
                “Well, no matter.” He said with a smile, “Any secrets you have will be uncovered in the end. In the meantime you should rest. You’re going to need it.”
Nightmares
                It was nearly noon and Eve and Adam lie sleeping in his bedroom at his home. Adam started to toss and turn still deep asleep but causing Eve to wake. She reached over wrapping her arm around him seeing a look of intense pain on his face.
                “Adam. Adam my love, wake up.” She said shaking him slightly. He thrashed about his hands clutching to his middle. Eve continued trying to wake him until he suddenly sat up hollering in pain as his eyes opened. He seemed to be in shock and Eve wrapped her arms around him trying to calm him down, brushing his hair away from his eyes and touching his face with her hands. After a few moments she spoke softly, “Dani?”
                “They are torturing her, experimenting on her.” He said his eyes still wide starring forward.
                Eve closed her eyes, “Oh my love.” She said softly holding him tight laying her head against his shoulder. The bond between Adam and Dani had become so strong, neither of them could escape it, especially while one or the other slept.
                “We’ve got to get her back Eve.” He said seriously, “We have to stop them.”
                “Jeremy said he would bring whatever information he could to us tonight.” Eve said rubbing his back. “Are you certain you want to use yourself as bait? If they are looking for you, they’ll be watching her apartment. You won’t be there 10 minutes before they descend on you.”
                “What other choice is there? We won’t be able to find her otherwise. Our connection is strongest when I am asleep.” He said rubbing his middle where the pain had been so excruciating it woke him. “It weakens significantly when I wake.” He was quiet for a moment shaking his head, “What if I did this to her?” Adam looked at Eve, “What if I was the reason she became sick in the first place? What if it is my child that sealed her fate and drew them to her?”
                “You couldn’t have known. None of us could Adam.” Eve sighed, “Her blood was mixed so many times when she was turned, by at least 6 different vampires. The ones that attacked her first drained her repeatedly, fed her from themselves before draining her again. When you brought her home and we nursed her back to health, we both fed her from our blood. We know the blood we gave her to heal her body was pure and clean human blood. We don’t know what sorts of things they gave her besides their own blood. What sort of contaminates was in it, or even if it was human blood at all.” She knew this was sounding incredibly harsh but he had to hear it, “These things that have happened to Dani, could all be side effects of the trauma and torture she suffered when she was turned.”
                “Eve,” Adam began, “Her migraines didn’t begin until after I took her.” He pointed out. “She didn’t become sick until after that. If I had let her alone as she had wanted all along instead of seducing her . . . . none of this might have happened.”
                “Blaming yourself isn’t helping.” Eve said, “I know that Dani would never blame you for any of this, and would be upset at you for wasting a moment’s grief over it.” Adam closed his eyes and gave a nod. Eve kissed his cheek before hugging him again.
Physical Evidence
                “Look at these readings Doctor.” The nurse said, “The brain activity is astounding. You would think it would decrease when she was turned but . . . it seems like every part of her brain is working well beyond what a normal humans would.”
                “Even with all this new technology we won’t be able to know the reason for everything. The cold fact of it is, Vampires shouldn’t exist. It’s medically, scientifically . . . factually impossible. Her reflexes are nearly 250x what a human’s would be. Her body heals itself from what would be fatal injuries to a human, as long as she’s kept nourished on human blood.” He turned towards her, “Was anything else able to be recovered from her home or the hospital?”
                “No. She’s been very careful about everything leaving nothing behind to be followed. Her apartment is that of a regular human being except for her locked refrigerator where she keeps a large supply of blood. We’ve left everything in her home untouched in case her mate returns; and we have it under close surveillance.” She reported.
                “Well, she is a young one. We still don’t know anything about him other than his name is Adam.” The doctor said. “There’s no telling if he’ll show up there again or not.” He paused looking at his watch, “It’s nearly feeding time.”
                “She’s still refusing to eat.” The nurse responded.
                “That won’t last long. If she starves herself, she won’t be able to control the feeding frenzy that will ensue when we introduce fresh blood.” He said putting down his pen. “What about the fetus? Any signs of life?”
                “None that we have seen.”
                “And she is still unaware of it?” He questioned.
                “Yes Doctor. She has no idea that she’s pregnant.” She said.
                He gave a nod before looking to his computer screen. “Alright, then prepare her for the extraction. Give her the treated blood we have prepared for this. I think it best that she be under for the entire procedure.”
                “Right away.” The nurse said turning and leaving to relay his orders.
                The doctor typed in a few commands into his computer pulling up the surveillance camera in Dani’s cell. He smirked seeing her sitting on the floor in the corner with her kneels pulled up to her chest. She had been relentlessly stubborn and uncooperative. “Such a lovely young woman. I can’t wait to see what we get from you.”
Tortured Souls
                Dani lifted her head looking around when she heard something hit the floor. She sighed seeing that another bag of blood had been tossed into the room and shook her head putting it back down on her knees. Of course she was hungry, but these people. She was being treated like some kind of animal and she wasn’t going to humor them even slightly.
                “Adam.” She breathed closing her eyes tight wishing to God this was just a dream she was going to wake up from at any moment. That it wasn’t really happening, and she would open her eyes finding herself lying beside him. Even if it was at his mess of house, she would take it.
                Her nose twitched slightly as the scent of the blood was stronger to her this time then the last ‘meal time’. She was hungry and it was getting worse. She raised her head looking towards it again. Before she even knew what she was doing she had crawled halfway over to the bag and her claws had grown sharp.
                “No!” She said moving back against the wall her eyes fixed on the bag. Dani knew she wasn’t going to be able to keep this hunger strike up to much longer. The feral beast she was now wouldn’t allow it. It wanted to hunt, it wanted to feast, and without the blood she needed to live she would have no control over it.
                She closed her eyes shaking her head, “No, NO!” She shouted at herself slamming her head back against the wall in frustration as her hands clinched tight into fists. “No, I won’t. I won’t!” She scolded herself.
                However, when she opened her eyes she found herself clutching to the bag with her fangs sunk deep inside the plastic as she hungrily sucked the warm crimson from the package. It was almost gone and she pulled her fangs from the bag finding a strange metallic taste to the blood. It was foul like a greasy coin. She tossed the bag away and wiped her mouth with her sleeve trying to get the taste out. It wasn’t long before she felt strange, lightheaded and hardly able to keep her eyes open. “Oh, God.” She said covering her face with her hand realizing that she’d been drugged.
                Slowly, her body went limp and she fell to the floor completely unconscious on the cold cement. As soon as she was under, the large glass wall opened. Several orderlies pushing a gurney came in with the nurse. They picked Dani up from the floor putting her on the gurney and buckling straps across her body before taking her out of the cell.
Captives
                Adam used his key and went into Dani’s apartment to find it hadn’t been ransacked and everything was where it belonged. He went to the fridge and unlocked it opening it finding that her blood supply was still intact. Even her latest batch of truffles were in the bottom of the fridge in a box. He sighed and reached in taking it out putting it on the counter.
                “How does the inside of the apartment look?” Jeremy’s voice said on the earpiece Adam was wearing.
                “You keep fucking chattering in my ear and this is never going to work.” Adam said. “Everything is fine, and still here. They probably left it this way hoping to lure me in.” He shook his head, “They must think I’m a complete idiot.”
                “Not to point out the obvious but you are standing in her kitchen right now.” Jeremy replied.
                “Will you shut the fuck up! Only talk to me when it’s necessary damnit!” Adam snapped.
                There was a moment of silence before Eve’s voice came over the earpiece. “We’re keeping an eye out but there hasn’t been any sign of movement or radio transmissions yet.”
                “Do me a favor and keep that idiot out of my ear.” Adam said taking one of the truffles from the box and looked at it. Never in his existence had he considered trying to make something like this. Dani was clever and ambitious, her brilliant mind had come up with the idea and she took it and ran. “It made traveling much easier didn’t it.” He said, “We can’t carry blood on planes or when we travel these days . . . but no one looks twice at chocolate.”
                Eve had used the latest batch of truffles that Dani had made and sent to her to come from Tangiers, and it made the traveling much better. It didn’t fry her so badly from starving. “Yes.” She said gently. “Such an exceptionally clever girl.”
                “Yeah.” He said dropping the truffle back in the box closing it back with a sigh. Usually he would have snagged several and devoured them; they were that tempting and delicious. But he simply didn’t feel like it right now, especially without her. “You guys make sure you stay well back when they take me. They’ll probably knock me out like they did to her at the hospital.” He reminded her. “This thing is meant to be hooked into a GPS satellite and should show the location of it anywhere in the world.”
                “I’m not going to lose you my darling. I want you both home again and safe.” Eve reassured him. “Just be careful.”
                Just then Adam heard a noise coming from outside of the apartment. He quickly put the truffles back in the fridge before heading into Dani’s room. “Here we go.” He said indicating that they should stop talking for now. He lay across Dani’s bed and closed his eyes to make it seem easy for them to take him with as little resistance as possible.
                Just as predicted, the door of the apartment burst open and several armed individuals who acted very much like military stormed into the place. They went to Dani’s room and immediately kicked the door open flooding into it. Adam got up appearing startled and preparing to fight when he was shot with several tranquilizer darts. Within a heartbeat he dropped to the floor completely unconscious.
                Eve closed her eyes dropping her head hearing the commotion and she could feel in her heart that Adam was indeed unconscious. “They have him.” She said softly.
                “They’ll transport him fast.” Jeremy looked at his watch, “It’s only an hour until sunrise.” He looked at her, “We need to get you home.” Eve didn’t want to let them go with Adam but she had little choice. This was the plan to find Dani and they had to stick to it, no matter how much she hated it. Now they not only had Dani, but they had Eve’s love and life as well. She gave a nod to Jeremy in agreement and he turned on the car heading to Adam’s house.
New Guests
                Adam sat on the floor of the cell that was very much like Dani’s leaning against the wall with his legs out straight before him crossed at the ankles. His head resting back against the wall but he starred at the window waiting. He’d been stripped of everything and put in white patient scrubs like Dani had been. Finally, the doctor and the nurse appeared at the window.
                “You must be Adam.” The doctor said looking at him.
                There was a long quiet moment before he responded, “And who is it that addresses me.” He said wanting to know a name.
                “Of course. I’m Dr. Gregory Mayes. A specialist in Nosfuratu’s such as yourself and Miss Dani. And as far as I know, I am the only one in the world.” The doctor said proudly. Adam could see that he was cocky and arrogant with an over inflated ego. “I have to say you have been far more cooperative with us then your companion.”
                “Is she dead.” Adam said simply.
                “No, no. Of course she isn’t. We’ve been taking very good care of her.” The doctor said with a smile. “The two of you are much more useful to us alive then dead. It’s been quite some time since we’ve captured one alive. A vampire couple is . . . well we really couldn’t be more fortunate.”
                “Hmm. We’ll see.” Was all Adam said as he starred at this man through narrowed eyes. He knew full well what kind of ‘care’ they’d been taken with Dani and every fiber of his being wanted to rip everyone in this place to shreds.
                The doctor looked him over having observed that Adam had a great deal of control and patience. “You are much older then she is, aren’t you.” He observed.”The wisdom to know when to fight and when it’s futile.” Adam didn’t answer and just kept his eyes on the pair. The doctor smirked as this was the point that Dani had stopped speaking with them as well. “Don’t worry. I promised Miss Dani that she wouldn’t need to tell us her secrets, we would find them ourselves. I make the same promise to you.” Adam could see quite plainly that he caught the attention of the nurse who found him quite attractive. Even her posture and stance had changed unconsciously. However he made no reply and just stayed still, starring at the two. “Psychological and neurological work up on him too.” The doctor told the nurse before turning and walking away. The nurse hesitated a moment her eyes still on Adam before she realized she was staring at him lost in thought and she hurried off.
                This was definitely a bad situation, and Adam knew it wouldn’t be easy for Eve and Jeremy to get them out. They were most likely going to have to find their own way out past whatever guards and defenses there were. This was going to take some thought and planning. Regardless of what they did, he was going to have to cooperate to avoid being tranquilized so he could get a layout of everything. It was not something he was looking forward to.
Interactions
                The tests they did on Adam were extensive but he had yet to experience the same pain they had caused Dani. He wasn’t sure what that meant or what they had done to her that they weren’t doing to him. No one had said anything about the child Dani was carrying yet and no questions had been asked about it which seemed rather odd to him.
                Almost a week after he had been captured and it seemed like endless tests had been run, Adam found himself being moved from one cell into another. He cooperated without any resistance and they actually let him walk the corridor to the new cell. But he was surrounded by guards aiming tranquilizer guns at him.
                When the glass pane opened he was shoved inside and it was immediately closed again behind him. “Assholes.” He said under his breath. Then he stopped cold recognizing the scent that surrounded him. He turned around to see Dani lying on her side facing away from him. “Dani.” He hurried over and kneeled down beside her carefully placing his hand on her shoulder and rolling her onto her back so he could see her. She looked very weak and her skin was a sickly grey. He picked her up off the floor onto his lap his arms wrapped around her holding her close. “Dani. Sweetheart.” He repeated.
                Slowly her tired eyes opened and looked at him, “Adam?” She said softly, her trembling hand reaching up and touching his face as if trying to gauge if he was really there or if she was dreaming again. Adam took it and kissed her palm and fingers holding it against his cheek looking into her eyes.
                “You haven’t been eating.” Adam said softly.
                “They keep drugging the blood they give me.” She replied. “If it didn’t taste so disgusting I imagine it would be harder to resist. And after they did what they did last time I . . . .” She quieted and turned her eyes down.
                “What did they do darling?” He questioned. Dani didn’t answer and instead wrapped her arms around him hugging him resting her head to his shoulder. Adam held her tighter stroking her head with his hands before embracing her against him just happy to see her alive.
                Seeing her this way made it clear to him why they had put them together. Since he cooperated with them to a point, they were hoping that he could convince her to do the same. Perhaps there was even more to it. Perhaps they wanted to observe how they interacted as ‘mates’ as they put it. They had no idea how this worked, and neither of them was going to explain it. They were family, not ‘mates’. Eve was his mate, but her name was never mentioned by Dani or Adam and never would be.
                There was a sound that made him look behind him finding two bags of blood had been dropped on the floor. He looked around not certain where they came from. Perhaps from a panel in the ceiling or the wall, but he wasn’t paying attention to anything but Dani to notice. He reached for the bags pulling them closer.
                “No, Adam. It isn’t safe . . . .” She started to say when he picked up one of them to hold for her. He bit into it tasting it finding that it tasted normal and was at human blood temperature.
                “Come on. You need to eat. You need your strength.” He said holding the punctures to her lips. “They put us together for a reason and I very much doubt it was to render us unconscious 5 minutes later.” Dani closed her eyes and began to drink. She was starving. After a moment her hands snapped up clutching the bag drinking hungrily. While she did, Adam reached for the other bag and opened it tasting it first to make certain it was alright finding it uncontaminated as well.
                When she finished the bag he held the second one up to her lips, “Adam . . . you, you have to eat.”
                “You first.” He said seriously. “I haven’t been torturing myself for their amusement.”Dani gave him a look when the first few drops of blood fell on her lips and she couldn’t resist soon drinking from this bag as well. It didn’t take long for her to drain it dry. When it was gone they tossed the bags away and Adam’s arms returned around her and he kissed her softly before resting her head to his shoulder again. “Rest Dani.” He said softly, “I’m here now. I won’t let you go. I promise.” Dani hugged him tighter and closed her eyes.
                They weren’t alone, there were several pairs of eyes on them as they were watched through the surveillance cameras. “There can be no mistake.” The nurse said, “Look how he went to her aid and cares for her. They are definitely a couple.”
                “Hmm. Interesting interaction so far. We’ll continue to observe them for a while before we introduce stimuli.” The Doctor said, “We’ll let them rest for now.”
                “Yes sir.” The nurse said making a few notes on her clipboard.
Escape Plans
                “The glass is unbreakable.” Dani said laying on the floor her head resting on Adam’s lap as he stroked her hair leaning against the wall. “I’ve tried. If you try to much they have ways of punishing you so you don’t keep trying.”
                “Patience is the key here.” He said softly. “The opportunity will come and we must be ready to take it.” They whispered so quietly that they could hear each other but the monitoring system wouldn’t pick up on it. “When you sleep . . . . did you feel me like I felt you?” Adam asked.
                Dani’s eyes opened. “What do you mean?” She questioned.
                “I felt you.” He said, “What they did to you, every time I slept. Things that they haven’t done to me.” He rested his hand over her abdomen. “I experienced your pain, here.”
                Dani covered his hand with both of hers starring up at the ceiling of the cell. “Electricity. They were running it through me. It was like grabbing a live wire but the current was much stronger. So much stronger.” She said softly.
                “Why? Where they trying to make your heart beat again?” He questioned thinking it an odd thing to do for any other reason except to be extremely cruel.
                She didn’t answer right away; it was as though she couldn’t speak. He could see she was clearly upset. Dani closed her eyes and several tears escaped before she opened them, “Not my heart. It’s heart. They were trying to wake it, to make it live.” Her voice was monotone and there was a glazed look in her eyes. “I didn’t know what they were doing at the time. No one told me. They just hooked these electrodes up to me. On my body, inside my body, and kept . . . sending surge after surge of electricity through me. I didn’t understand it. I screamed and begged for them to stop, but . . . it was like they didn’t even notice I was conscious or in pain.” She sighed and closed her eyes, “When they didn’t work they just removed it all together. Put it in a jar and showed it to me. . . . showed me . . .” Her voice fell away as it seemed she didn’t want to talk about it anymore.
                Adam sighed leaning his head back against the wall. “I know.” He said simply so she knew she didn’t have to explain further. “It’s why they took you in the first place.”
                “How could something have grown to such a size when it was never alive to begin with?” She said softly.
                “What do you mean?” he questioned.
                “It had fingers, hands, toes . . . it looked like a fully formed baby.” She said softly. “Not ready to be born, but . . . very developed but so small. . . . and teeth.”
                “Teeth?” Adam said finding that very strange.
                Dani looked up at him and touched her canines, “Fangs.” She reached up and touched his, “Like ours.” She shook her head. “I’ve never heard of such a thing, much less seen it.”
                “I’m not certain I understand either. How nothing would show up in the tests that you and Jeremy ran only to find that there was a child that had somehow grown to such a point.” He sighed and shook his head, “It doesn’t matter now darling. It’s done and over with . . . you needn’t concern yourself with it further.”
                Dani sat up and turned towards him, “But I am concerned. It is cause for concern. You and Eve both told me that vampires can’t have children. That we are all barren. That we don’t reproduce that way, we turn humans into vampires that’s just how it works.”
                “I wish I had answers for you Dani, but I don’t. I wouldn’t even know where to begin to try and figure out how this happened, or why.” Adam said. “If all these torturous tests they’ve run on you have turned up anything, I doubt very much they are going to share it with us.”
                “Has this ever happened to you before?” Dani asked.
                He arched a brow, “To me? You mean . . . the child.” He said wanting to clarify. Dani closed her eyes as though she felt ashamed before giving a nod. “No.” Adam responded. “And I’m sorry it happened now. If it hadn’t then you would have never been in a position for them to find you.”
                Dani shook her head taking his hand, “I cannot believe you are blaming yourself for this mess. Like you said, every since the first day you took me from that parking lot in pieces, I’ve been a relentless pain in your ass. I cause problems, problems follow me like a stray dog, I am a problem.” She half smiled. “I mean, how much of a screw up do you have to be to be the one Vampire that can get herself pregnant when it’s impossible.”
                “Well I might be inclined to agree with you except you aren’t asexual. You didn’t get yourself pregnant. I believe that bit was my doing.” He said touching her face with his fingertips.
                Dani was quiet looking away, “But was I really pregnant?” She asked. “If it was never alive . . . then I wasn’t really. But if it was never alive, how did it develop so much . . . .”
                Adam reached up and touched his fingers to her lips, “Shhh.” It was affecting her. That analytical mind of hers when it got a hold of a puzzle would go around and around trying to find answers. Even if it was clearly something that hurt her each time she thought about it. “It doesn’t matter anymore, Dani. What’s done is done, it can’t be undone.” He slid his fingers through her hair gently.
                She looked down a moment before looking back into his eyes, “You’re never going to touch me again after this are you.”
                Adam smirked slightly looking at her, “If only it were that simple darling. We’ve been living together in this . . . fishbowl for nearly 3 days now. It hasn’t been easy not engaging in exhibitionist behavior.”
                Dani couldn’t help giggle when he said that. Adam smiled seeing he’d made her laugh when she’d been completely emotionally drained since he found her. After a moment she quieted and her eyes turned downcast again as he stroked her cheek with his fingertips, “What are they going to do to us now?” She asked in a soft voice.
                “I doubt we’ll have to wait very long to find out.” He looked around a moment, “But I do get the distinct feeling that whatever ‘experimenting’ they do on us now, will be on both of us together.”
                She took a breath and closed her eyes as they embraced holding onto each other tightly.
On the Outside
                “Of course it’s underground, people like this don’t work above ground it would be too easy to find them otherwise.” Eve said looking at the maps and plans that she and Jeremy had acquired.
                “The entrances and exits are limited and well guarded; it’s going to be almost impossible to get them out. If this was different, if it were different people then I would say you would have the upper hand. But they know about vampires and they know how to handle them far too well. Whoever they are, they’re privately funded.” Jeremy pointed out. He ran his hand through his hair in frustration looking at the plans. “If there was a way to get them to evacuate so they would all come out of the complex . . . .”
                “No, that’s a bad idea. If they think they are under attack they might decide to destroy any evidence they have or that might implicate them. They could ‘dispose’ of Dani and Adam and collapse the base in on itself to avoid discovery.” Eve said.
                “We’re going to have to figure out something, Eve. There’s just the two of us. We’re out numbered, out classed, out gunned . . . . and who knows what sort of shape Dani and Adam are in.” He looked down feeling a knot in his stomach. “If . . .they’re even still alive.”
                “They are.” Eve said, “I would know if it were otherwise.” She said seriously. Jeremy fell silent still not raising his eyes. Eve could see that he was frustrated and more upset than ever. She moved closer and sat down next to him. “Well get her back, Jeremy. I know as we are working out here, that she and Adam are plotting a way to escape in there. It just takes a little time and patience.”
                “You and Adam both said they were torturing her.” Jeremy said looking at her. “When we do get her back . . . .will there be anything of the Dani I know left?” He questioned.
                Eve smiled and rested her hand on his shoulder, “Dani . . . has continually surprised us all from the very beginning. When she was turned she went through far worse. Far more unspeakable things were done to her. But she came back from it and put it behind her. I believe she is strong enough to put this behind her too.”
                Jeremy gave a nod knowing Dani had always been the strong one and what was important now was getting her and Adam back.
Accommodations
                Dani and Adam had been moved yet again to another chamber. This one was quite different than the others they had been in. It was larger, and there were two plush twin beds against the adjoining walls near the corner made up comfortably with pillows sheets and blankets. The reason for the upgrade in accommodations they were told was because of ‘good behavior’, having been cooperating and compliant since they were put together. No more sleeping on the cold cement floor.
                When the door was closed again, they found that the wall was nearly seamless and that this room had four walls instead of three and a window. “What do you suppose this is really all about?” Dani said.
                “Who knows, I’m sure we’ll find out soon enough.” They looked around moving to the beds looking them over.
                “Why is everything made of this weird wood?” She questioned.
                “Probably to prevent us from smashing it apart and using it as a weapon. This kind of wood tends to severely splinter when it breaks. We start breaking up stuff we run the risk of severely injuring or killing ourselves with the wood.” He said sitting down on the bed finding it extremely soft and comfortable. Not like the hard prison bunk he was expecting it to be. He motioned for Dani to come over and she sat down next to him as he wrapped his arm around her and they leaned back against the wall.
                “Is it just me . . . or have their tests and experiments gotten sparse and basic?” She questioned.
                “There is definitely something going on, just not certain what.” Adam responded. Dani curled up under his arm resting her head to his chest as he held her close. She hadn’t been sleeping very well and it was quite understandable. Their previous accommodations left a lot to be desired.
                She closed her eyes, “I want to go home Adam.”
                “I know darling.” He said resting his hand to the back of her head holding her close. “Soon.”
                Both of them were becoming drowsy and nodding off, which usually meant that it was morning and the sun was coming up outside. But this? This felt different somehow. “They haven’t fed us tonight.” She said softly unable to keep her eyes open.
                “I know.” Adam said realizing that something was going on as well, but seconds later they were both hard asleep.
Experimental Treatments
                “Are you certain they’re ready?” The nurse asked looking at the doctor.
                “They haven’t fed in 48 hours. It should be sufficient to strip away some of that sophistication and snobbery. Bring out their more basic instincts without weakening them too much.” The doctor said. “She is very young, but him.” He said tapping the screen pointing at Adam. “He has been around much longer. A century, two centuries . . . perhaps even more.” He smiled, “Oh I can’t wait to see how this goes.”
                The nurse looked a bit uncomfortable with the entire situation for the first time since they’d captured them. Something about Adam was making her question things when she had been so focused on the science and experiments before they brought him in. It had somehow been easier to think of Dani as a thing, but not so easy with Adam.
                “Let’s bump Dani’s dose of Rhohyptase 50mg.” The doctor said.
                “Yes sir.” The nurse made a note on her clipboard before turning to go and do as she was directed. The doctor looked back at the screen beyond excited. Two live test subjects, mates. One who was recently turned and one who was much much older. This was unbelievable, the find of a lifetime.
                He watched as the drug was administered to the sleeping young woman. The staff took readings and tests on the sleeping pair and injected other medication for the next ‘experiment’. As soon as the room was cleared of all personnel and sealed, the doctor turned on a few switches, before slowly turning a dial watching the screen.
                The nurse returned and stood next to him. A mist filled the chamber where the two vampires lay unconscious. “Are we certain this is going to work?” She said watching the monitor.
                “No. But that’s why we conduct these experiments. To study, to test, to learn.” He turned the dial further, “And it’s just vampire pheromones, nothing harmful.”
                “As long as they don’t react badly and tear each other apart.” The nurse said nervously seeing Adam stir slightly.
                “If things get out of hand then we can tranquilize them.” He paused looking up at the nurse, “Is everything alright? You seem jumpy these past few days.”
                “I’m fine.” She said half smiling. “It’s just . . . I’m not used to working with . . . myths and legends.”
                The doctor smiled and turned the dial higher once again. The nurse noticed he was giving them a far higher than recommended dosage.
Pheromone Frenzy
                Adam lay behind Dani, one arm draped over her middle and his other under her head. Their faces resting against one another, and Dani’s hand resting over Adam’s arm that lay across her. Adam’s glowing eyes opened feeling like every part of his body was buzzing just underneath his skin. His fangs had grown long and sharp no doubt in part from not having fed and being famished.
                Unconsciously Adam’s grip on Dani grew tighter, drawing her body closer to his as his eyes moved around the room. Something was strange. He raised his head, “Dani.” He said his eyes shifting to the young woman sleeping in his arms. “Dani.” He said a little louder to wake her. She groaned a little starting to stir feeling a little sore. However her eyes soon snapped open as well glowing just as brightly as Adam’s, her fangs having grown sharp and long as well.
                “What’s going on?” She said softly her eyes shifting around the room feeling that something was off. “What’s happening?” She felt the strange buzzing underneath her skin. Dani sat up running her fingers over her neck before looking at her arms. She frowned seeing that there was an injection site that hadn’t healed because they hadn’t fed. “Adam,” She turned showing him. Adam took her arm before looking at his own finding an injection site in the same place on his own.
                “Fuck.” He said looking at her.
                Dani ran her fingers over the injection sites; she closed her eyes resting her hand over her eyes shaking her head. “God, it feels like I’ve been out drinking all night.” She said looking up at Adam who was feeling the same sort of effect.
                Adam looked at her surrounded and engulfed by her scent that sent tingles down his body. “Dani.” He said calmly. She looked up at him seeing the way he was starring at her. “How are you feeling right now?”
                She took a breath feeling anxious and incredibly aroused. “Uh . . .” She said as both reached out touching each other finding the feeling that they were experiencing intensify. “Oh . . . lord.” At once Dani jumped off the bed and ran to the opposite side of the room sitting in the furthest corner away from him. “You have got to be kidding me.”
                “After everything they’ve done so far, you’re actually shocked that this isn’t above them?” Adam said leaning against the wall closing his eyes rubbing the injection site that was itching.
                “We aren’t human but we’re still people. How can they treat us this way?” She said pulling her knees to her chest and resting her head against them.
                “Because they are animals.” Adam said, “Just try to stay calm. Think about something else.”
                Dani stayed quiet but soon she started to tremble her breath becoming erratic. Adam opened his eyes looking at her. She was rocking herself keeping her face hidden and whimpering softly. He was much older and had a great deal more of self control. Dani however was young and inexperienced, not to mention emotionally fragile already.
                She took deep breaths but it was physically painful for her to try and ignore every fiber of her being that was screaming out to be touched and held by a man she was already hopelessly attracted to and desperately in love with.
                When Adam’s hand gently rested on her shoulder she jumped pressing herself harder against the wall having nowhere to go. “Adam . . .” She said nervously holding up her hands between them to stay back, but he was far to close. She didn’t know how long she would be able to resist her own feelings and desires. However Adam reached up and gently stroked her hair. She closed her eyes enjoying his gentle and tender touches. “Adam please.” She breathed feeling her anxiousness growing by the second. “They’re watching us. You know they are.” Tears escaped her eyes as she looked up at him. He cupped her face in his hand looking into her eyes.
                “I know darling. I know they are manipulating us every way they know how. Why they haven’t fed us, why they moved us into this room with beds, giving us two instead of one so it wasn’t blatantly obvious what their intentions for us were.” Adam was disgusted with this low and depraved plan of their captors. “I imagine they are attempting to ‘encourage’ us to make love because they want to see if you can be impregnated again.” Dani’s eyes closed as her head dropped and she covered her face with her hands embarrassed and humiliated. “Shhh.” He whispered drawing her into his arms holding her tight.
                “No, Adam don’t . . . .” She said her entire body aflame wanting him even worse than before if it was even possible. Dani’s body was shaking trying with everything in her not to attack him. Adam wasn’t suffering any less than she was and was fighting the desire to throw her to the ground and take her over and over again.
                “Be strong for me now Dani. Like I know you are. We won’t be here much longer and they’ll pay for what they’ve done. Everything they’ve put us through.” He kissed her head rubbing her back.
                “Please, Adam . . . I don’t want to do this. I don’t want to perform for them.” She said more tears running down her face. “Remember what you said? You said such things were private, not for others to see. Do you remember?” She shook her head, “Who knows how many are watching us.” Her hands were resting on his chest before moving up over his shoulders to his back pressing her body to his.
                “Don’t think about that darling.” His hands on her back holding her body against his as they sat on the floor in the corner. Both were breathing deeply as they rested their foreheads together, intoxicated by each other’s touch and scent. A low growl started to imamate from inside Dani, and for the first time, she heard a growl deep in Adam’s chest as well. He cupped her face in his hands stroking her cheeks with his thumbs. Both were anxious to taste one another. “Whatever happens,” He breathed, “Remember, I love you.” Dani nodded feeling the same.
                Within a heartbeat, they devoured each other’s lips. Their bodies shaking; completely overcome with lust and desire. Neither was able to control themselves any longer.
