i get no privacy around here , she said . you see , my father was killed by a vampire . thoughtfully , tyler considers the options and raises the gun barrel to the sky . he still was n't acting normal , and he only talked to me when he had to . every time he took my hand , i could feel the warmth of his fingers spreading all through me , like sunlight on my skin . i sat on my special throne , and that seemed to start the whole thing .
