Read Never Bite a Boy on the First Date for Free Online

previous school, not Luna. It was my first day as a vampire high school student. That was a year ago. Obviously we’d had to move away from my hometown in Michigan; I couldn’t exactly keep flitting around Ann Arbor after I’d supposedly died in a car accident. So Olympia relocated us all down South—apparently vampires are used to moving a lot, so no one in the family complained—and signed me up to redo junior year at a new school.
    I’d never moved before. I’d lived my whole life in Ann Arbor and always known the same people. Plus I’d never had to deal with hiding a part of my identity before. But I tried to be like, Okay, so we’re in Georgia. I can do this. I’m not just the new girl. I’m a vampire. I don’t have to be afraidof mean girls and gossip anymore. I could snap their necks in half—er, not that I will or anything, but it’s nice to know that I can. Plus I’m going to live forever. I might as well start acting like it .
    That was the pep talk running through my head for the thousandth time when I finally found my locker that morning, which took a while because there was a guy leaning on it and blocking the number. He grinned down at me. He smelled like testosterone and basketballs.
    “Move,” I said.
    “Ooo, feisty and gorgeous,” he said, not moving. “Just how I like ’em.”
    “Ooo, beefy and stupid,” I said. “Add sweaty and we’ll have a trifecta.”
    “I’ll have a trifecta with you anytime,” he said, leering. I rolled my eyes. The equally thick-headed guy he was waiting for snickered and closed his locker, which was two over from mine.
    “Good one,” the thick-headed guy said. “Let’s go.”
    “You go on,” Zach said. “I think I’m about to get lucky.”
    “Yeah, you are,” I said. His eyebrows waggled. “Lucky that I don’t want to get kicked out,so I’m not going to kill you today.”
    “Oooooo,” Zach said, which maybe should have tipped me off that we’d hit the outer limits of his witty repartee. But just then the bell rang and the hall started to empty, which distracted me.
    “Move. Now .” I gave him my best steely-eyed vampire glare.
    “Or what?” he said, crossing his arms as the last couple of kids hurried into their classrooms.
    “I’m glad you asked,” I said. In my head I was like, You know what, I’m a freaking vampire. I have super-strength, hardly anything can kill me, and if I get in trouble we’ll just move again. Why hold back?
    So I threw him into a janitor’s closet and locked him in while I went to chemistry.
    He was sitting on an overturned bucket when I got back, listening to his iPod. He grinned like a pirate when I opened the door and slipped inside.
    “I knew you’d come back,” he said.
    “You’d have looked pretty silly if I didn’t,” I said.
    “You needed another piece of this pie, didn’tyou?” Zach pointed to himself with an oh, yeah expression.
    “You’re much cuter when you don’t talk,” I said, and kissed him in the dark.
    I didn’t really mean to encourage his alpha-male obnoxiousness. I mainly wanted to shut him up. And also I wanted to see what would happen. I’d never dated a guy like this. My one and only boyfriend back when I was alive was the sweet, sensitive type who took, like, three years just to ask me out.
    Plus, when dealing with a guy like Zach, it was nice to have super-strength. Like, for instance, when I found his hands instantaneously roaming to my butt.
    “OW!” he yelped as I flung him into a shelf of toilet paper.
    “I make the rules,” I said. “Got it? You touch only what I want you to touch.”
    “Can I have a list?” he said, recovering quickly. “With descriptive details, please?”
    “Seriously, shut up,” I said. I pushed him into the wall, twisted his hands behind his back, and held them there while I kissed him again. His kisses were very enthusiastic. And he didn’ttry to free himself, so I figured he’d be easy to train.
    He was really warm, and he
