Looking with a gaze filled with warmness, Celeste observed the trio of friends hugging each other. From what little she had read about vampires in fantasy books, she had always imagined them as cold creatures; however, in front of her very eyes, she was witnessing an extremely affectionate moment. 

[i]"They look like a family." [/i] A soft smile formed on her rosy lips. In her mind, the fair girl imagined family roles for each one of the friends. Mei was the big oldest tough sister, Anton was the rebellious brother and Petra was the baby sister. 

Upon until that moment, Celeste had only seen Mei's cold, stern and bossy side, so it was a welcome opportunity to get to see her kind side as well. 

A name was mentioned. [i]"Judah?"[/i] Judging from the queen's expression, the young girl wondered what had happened to the man. She opened her eyes in shock when hearing about more vampires joining the clan. 

[i]"More...there are more?!!!"[/i] It was not too long before she learned one of the names of the other three vampires. [i]"Marcus..."[/i] SHe paused for a moment as she did some calculations in her head. "[i]So there are seven vampires in this coven..."[/i] She had met four of them and heard the name of another one. So far there were two girls and three boys. She wondered what gender were the other two. 

Being an only child, Celeste had never experienced that special bond that siblings had. She did not want to admit it but she was a bit jealous of the tight and loving bond that she could easily see these "sibling" had. 

An audible gulp was immediately heard after Anton asked Mei if Celeste was a late night appetizer. However, to the young girl's surprise and relief her savior had protected her once again. Turning her gaze to Mei, the green-eyed girl could not hide the expression of gratitude on her face.  

Hearing Nero's name and shortly after seeing him in person lightened up Celeste's face like the moon lighting up the darkest of nights. Throughout her life, the naive girl had dated guys that looked very different from the black-haired man but there was something about him that fascinated the young girl. 

The swift glance that Nero gave the brown-haired girl was enough to make her blush. She looked at the floor, trying to hide the happiness she felt at seeing that Nero had returned to his home safe and unharmed. 

She waited for everyone to enter into their home, before stepping into the hut. She opened her eyes widely, an expression of great surprise on her visage. The inside of the cabin was completely different from the outside. An elegant and sophisticated place was the one she was walking into. 

Turning around slowly so she could properly observe Mei's "humble" abode, the green-eyed girl thought to herself, [i]"Do not judge a book by its cover Celeste, do not judge it".
