I have a confession to make: I am a vampire. Or, to be completely honest, I am half-vampire and there lies my problem. You see, to be a vampire or to be a werewolf or to be any other supernatural creature is easy. There are schools, jobs, communities, but to be a half-blood, to be a hybrid, leaves someone out in the cold. There are rules to follow as a pureblood, regulations to help them blend with humans, but if a person's blood is tainted, we are sent away, to the furthest outskirts our families can find, in order to become whatever monsters we were born to be.
