Chapter 266

POV

ou want to become a committee member?” I asked, staring up at the gorgeous–looking vampire with what must have been disbelief written all over my face.

I’m sure Becca and Brody both looked about the same.

Does it look like I’m joking?” She asked, rolling her eyes.

“I suppose not,” I said, chuckling nervously. “What is your name?”

“Skylar Barnett,” she muttered.

My heart nearly jumped out of my chest; she was a Barnett? As in Albert Barnett and Claudette Barnett?

Albert and Claudette basically owned the fashion industry. They were definitely vampires, but they were the most popular vampires to ever exist when it came to fashion, design, and modeling.

That’s why Skylar looked familiar to me; I had seen her in magazines before. That also explains the high–end boots and black cashmere jacket she wore.

I glanced sideways at Becca whose mouth was practically on the ground; Brody, of course, was clueless. He didn’t know much of anything about fashion; but I knew the Barnett’s were huge, which made Skylar huge.

“If you’re done gawking at me, can I fill out the form or not?” Skylar asked, rolling her eyes at us.

“Oh yes,” I said a little too quickly, sliding it over to her.

She sat down in the seat in front of me and started to fill out the form in perfect cursive.

“I’m sorry, but may I ask why you want to join the committee?” I found myself asking, making her pause and glance up at me. “It’s just that, vampires don’t typically like school events or activities… so I’m a little confused.”

She put the pen down and leaned back in her seat to look me over carefully. I felt my face warming instantly.

“My parents are making me take an extra curriculum,” she muttered, sounding extremely annoyed. “Something about wanting the world to know the Barnett’s aren’t just about looks. We also have brains.”
