"The man hanging limply across my shoulders stank of drugs and body odor. There were many things I despised about becoming a vampire, but the heightened sense of smell was a constant annoyance. Another was my unreasonable desire to rip the throat out of the grim reaper who was currently towing me along in a loose headlock. I’d laughed a few seconds ago when he first grabbed me. I understood my roommate’s roughhousing for the comfortable affection it was, but I couldn’t stop the bristling defensiveness from surging through me. Thankfully, Grim was incredibly observant and released me as soon as he felt my muscles tense—before I had time to act on the violent impulses demanding I defend myself from anything that came too close."-Magpies & Mayhem by Elsie Winters
