The florescent lights on the celling the light muffled sounds in the background scribbling sound from the board... Professor Theodore's voice droned on, but jenna's attention wandered. As she drew more like scribbled Jason's face in her notebook, her mind drifting to her upcoming birthday/hunt a.k.a her first hunt. She exhales
"Hey, mind if I borrow your notes?" Jason, from the back of the classroom, whispered.
Jenna's cheeks flushed. "Uh, no. I mean, sure."
As Jack leaned in to collect the notes, his shoulder brushed against jenna's. The brief touch sent shivers down her spine.
"Thanks," Jason said, his voice low and smooth and calming.
Jenna smiled briefly, feeling a bask of warmeth. "No problem." She said
As the bell rang, jenna gathered her belongings, her eyes meeting Jason's in a fleeting glance.
The connection was undeniable.
As Jenna packed up her things, Jack lingered, his eyes locked on hers. "Hey, jenna? Can I walk you out?" he asked, his voice low and casual.
Jenna's heart skipped a beat. "Sure," she replied, trying to sound nonchalant.
They walked side by side, they couldn't help but steal glances from each other, noticing the way his hair curled slightly and the shape of her lips red as crimson enticing as a juicy red cherry.
As they reached the campus quad, Jason slowed his pace. "So, Emily, what do you think of Theodore's lecture "supernatural creatures" ?" he asked, his eyes crinkling at the corners.
Jenna's heart skipped a beat she gave up a false laughter. "Honestly? I find them pretty boring it's not like it real."
Jason chuckled. "Same here. But hey, at least we have each other to suffer through them."
They both laughed, they felt a connection to each other.
"Well see you later 😉" Jason said

Jenna drives in got out of her car and walked towards the door opened it and stood frozen in the doorway, her eyes scanning the room. The familiar faces... her heart skipped a beat.
"Jenna's jaw dropped. "What...what is this why are you all here?" she stuttered.
Her mom stepped forward, tears shining in her eyes. "I wouldn't miss your birthday for anything my love, sweetie. I've missed you so much."
Jenna's eyes widened as she took in the scene. Her mom, aunts, uncles, and cousins – everyone was there. Even her grandfather, who she hadn't seen in years.
She felt a lump form in her throat as she gazed at the people she loved most. "You guys could have told me you were coming" she whispered as tears dropped down her eyes.
Her mom opened her arms, and jenna rushed into them, tears of joy streaming down her face.
"I've missed you all so much," she whispered, hugging 🫂 her mom tightly.
Adriana stood tall, her eyes locked on her daughter, Jenna. The family's legacy rest heavy on her shoulders.
"Jenna, you're turning 17 in a few days. It's time you knew the truth," Adriana said, her voice low but serious.
Jenna's curiosity was piqued. "What truth, Mom is it about the creatures we hunt?"
Adriana froze for a second or two umm... You know, who told you..
Well dad told me, Jenna said softly
Have you read the book Adriana asked, well a bit... it's In my room I'll get it Jenna replied as she rushed upstairs
So you couldn't wait till we got here Thomas "Jenna's dad's first name"
She found the book I had to explain he said softly...
Jenna rushes down with the book and hands it over to her mom
."This was passed down through generations of women in our family.yes we're the bosses, We're not just ordinary women, Jenna . We're hunters."
Jenna's eyes widened as she opened the book, revealing yellowed pages filled with notes, sketches, and ancient spells.
Adriana continued, "Our ancestors made a pact to protect humanity from the forces of darkness. Now it's your turn, jenna. You must learn to harness your power that runs through our veins."
Jenna's face set in determination. "I'm ready, Mom. Teach me."
Adriana smiled with a mix of pride and trepidation as her eyes locked with grandpa . "Then let's begin."
Adriana led Jenna to a hidden room deep within the basement . The walls were adorned with ancient artifacts, and the air was filled with thick scent of old books.
Adriana guided jenna through the basement, revealing the secrets of their family's hunting legacy. Jenna's eyes widened as she learned about the supernatural world hidden in plain sight.
"Mom, why didn't you tell me about this before?" Jenna asked, her voice laced with a mix of emotions.
Adriana's expression turned somber. "I wanted to protect you, jenna. But now that you're almost 17, it's time you knew the truth. You're the next in line to carry on our family's legacy and guide these men they'll be lust without us ." They both chuckled😂
Jenna's shoulders squared, determination burning within her. "I'm ready, teach me everything."
Adriana smiled, pride shining in her eyes. "Then let's begin your training. We have a lot of work to do.
Adriana led Jenna to a secluded training area deep within their estate. The room was equipped with various weapons, targets, and ancient artifacts.
"First, we'll focus on hand-to-hand combat and sword fighting," Adriana said, handing Jenna a sleek, silver sword, sharp as dragons tooth light as a feather
Jenna grasped the hilt, feeling an unexpected surge of energy course through her veins. "This feels...familiar," she said, her eyes locking onto Adriana's.
Adriana smiled. "It's a cursed artifact a strike to a vampire's heart it's dead, Jenna . Our ancestors were skilled warriors. Now, let's see what you're capable of."
With Adriana's guidance, Jenna began her training, unleashing a dormant strength and agility she never knew she possessed.
As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting the room in a warm, golden light, Jenna felt an unshakeable sense of purpose.
She was born for this.
