starting school tomorrow and you weren’t going like that.” To make her point
    Madison looked her sister over. Dear god the girl was wearing a plastic mini skirt with a fluffy tight top that showed off her
    small breasts and she was shivering. She used to be so reasonable.
    “You just don’t want me to embarrass you,” she snapped.
    Madison laughed. “First off, we look nothing alike. Secondly, we have different last names and you will call me Miss.
    Soloman like everyone else. Thirdly you’re not going around looking like a slut for the rest of your life. Have some self-
    respect.”
    “Madison, what’s a slut?” Joshua’s young voice chimed in. She forgot he was there. She winced as Jill gave her a superior
    look.
    “Yes, Madison, what’s a slut?” Jill asked. She was going to kill her. That was it. No one would blame her.
    “Ah….that is….er…” She was vaguely aware of a car engine shutting down close by. All her focus was on Joshua’s question
    and how to answer it in such a way that he didn’t use it to tease Jill in front of people like he was known to do.
    “Come on, Madison, you’re a teacher, so tell me what a slut is.” Joshua demanded in a louder voice. That was the normal
    progression of events when he would ask an embarrassing or difficult question. The longer she took the higher his voice
    became.
    “I believe, young man, that name is given to a woman who gives her affections too freely to men,” a deep voice said.
    “Oh my,” Jill gasped in a sultry voice, a little too sensually for Madison’s sanity. That could not be a good sign.
    “Who are you and why do you have a gun?” Joshua demanded.
    “What?” Madison startled by the question jumped back, catching her wrist on something. “Ow!” Damn it, she cut herself.
    Thankfully the area was clean, well was before. Now it was covered in blood.

The scene that met him when he walked up the long driveway was amusing. A little boy ran around a piece of shit car,
    bouncing his ball and asking someone named Madison about sluts. He had to stop himself from chuckling. This Madison person
    was in a tight spot.
    The next thing that caught his eye was a little girl dressed like a whore that reminded him of the light skirts that used to work
    the docks when he was a child. She wore too much make-up, too little clothing and had an air of experience around her. She
    wasn’t aware of him yet.
    The last thing and the most important thing that hit him was the smell of a pure blood, virgin blood. He knew it wasn’t the little
    boy. Men, even little boys, never gave off that scent. That particular scent was saved for women. It was enticing and
    mouthwatering.
    It had to be this little girl. She couldn’t be more than fifteen, maybe fourteen. He eyed the girl. Nope, this little girl was not a
    virgin. He wasn’t surprised. Things changed dramatically over the past century. According to the media it wasn’t popular or
    normal for teens to remain chaste until marriage or even adulthood.
    Even if this young girl had been a virgin she would have been off limits. He didn’t eat where he lived and these children were
    clearly the grandchildren of his landlady. He remembered they were to arrive today, which is why he stopped off on the way
    home and picked up some more air fresheners for the bathroom. He also never fed off a child before. Never had and never
    would. Children were innocents in his eyes no matter their sexual experience.
    That left this Madison, probably another child. She would be safe as well under his rules. He couldn’t remember the last time
    he fed off a virgin. Was it sixty years? Probably. He had one rule when it came to virgin woman, and that rule had not been
    needed in all these sixty years. He only took blood not her innocence. There were plenty of willing women for what his body
    needed. Christ how long had it been since he had a woman? December back in 1880 or the 1890's he thought. Sex became
    boring and
