Waking was instant—as it always is. From dreamless nothing to full
wakefulness in a moment. And the knowledge of where he was and where
my twins were, it was all just there, the information immediately available as
soon as I wanted it. Just as I knew that my body was at full strength, that I
had no injuries, and that I was hungry, but that it was a controllable hunger.
I knew that my room was empty, knew that the children were with their
father, two rooms away, and knew that my Chosen was calm and maybe even
amused.
People, normal human-type people, speak of awakening with stiffness, or
aches, or even of sleeping poorly. I have no idea what that means. My
fellow Darkkin seem to understand it even though they have long since
passed beyond such infirmities, but I have never been a normal human and
it’s just one of many things that I simply have no frame of reference to relate
to. I don’t fall asleep, as they say… I plummet into unconsciousness. Awake
one moment and then not, and then I simply am awake again. If I dream, I
don’t know it, and I never awaken early unless forced to by outside stimuli.
Rising, I stretched as I always do, in the manner that Christian calls my
waking cat stretch. While I did, scents flooded my nose, telling me roughly
how long ago my Chosen had arisen and who was currently awaiting me
outside the bedroom. Satisfied for the moment, I went into the attached
bathroom to prepare for the day.
Lisle stood as soon as I opened the door from our suite, her tablet
clutched to her chest, eyes widening slightly as she saw me. I had showered
and dressed for the morning in a blue business suit that would set off my
eyes. Of course, I’d likely have to change clothes several more times to
accommodate workouts and such.
Lisle is still new to being one of my assistants, and the newness of it
hasn’t worn off. She brims over with excitement and eagerness, wearing the
pride of being selected like a badge of honor. Chris always wonders why I
don’t just ask Omega for whatever I need to know. It’s actually a good
question, one that I’m sure my human assistants probably puzzle over
themselves, or maybe even with each other. Why do they even have this
job? But Lydia understands, as I think would most Darkkin. Chris grew up
human, as did all vampires. I didn’t. I need more contact, more interaction,
not less.
“Good evening, Tatiana,” she said, almost standing at attention.
“It’s Tanya, Lisle. Right?” I asked, smiling gently to remove any form of
sting from this most minor of criticisms.
“It just seems like I should at least call you by your formal name. Being
the boss and all.”
