giving him space just put more space between us that I couldn’t fix later?
    And what the hell was I going to do about Mav? The Queen said she put him to sleep until my blood worked itself out of his system and he returned back to normal. How long would that take? And how did I ever explain that I upset Tyler so badly that he left?
    The show started and I felt overwhelming sadness. Tyler came up with this idea to help me and my people. Now he wasn’t even here to see if it helped because I drove him away. I was a horrible mate. I had no excuse, but I did have a few reasons that I handled things poorly. I really prayed to the gods that if I just got a chance to explain to Tyler that he’d understand.
    As lost in my own thoughts as I was, I couldn’t take my eyes off the show. They had the coolest inventions in this world. These TVs that showed pictures were fantastic. I felt like I was standing right there at the places it showed. It moved to show the whole Earth and I heard gasps around the room. That’s where we were? That huge planet?
    Then it changed views to show how the sun moved around, but that wasn’t what the woman was saying. She said the Earth and other planets moved around the sun and that was just one solar system. I’d have to look up what that was later, but it sounded big.
    I liked her voice. It was soothing. I heard one of my friends ask who she was.
    “That’s Sigourney Weaver. She’s an actress who plays characters in movies,” a vampire warrior, Ferris, explained. That had a bunch of people asking more questions. “Okay, maybe we need to get some notebooks in here so you guys can just start writing questions down and we can address them after the show so you don’t miss it.”
    I thought that was a great idea since I already had a dozen questions on my mind. He made the show stop, saying that he was pausing it. Wow! They could pause shows? How could he have the power to do that with that thing in his hand? Of course, someone then asked about that and he explained that the show was recorded and could be watched at any time. The thing in his hand was a remote and controlled the machine that played the recorded show.
    In other words, I was learning a lot in the span of a few minutes and not all of it made sense. Several others came back with pads of paper, which they called notebooks. It made sense, they were books for notes. We just called them writing pads, but it was basically the same thing. They also handed out writing instruments they called pens. We had pencils in our world, but I found these pens fun.
    I was delighted when I went to write down my first question and saw mine wrote in purple. If I could just get a grasp on this world and everything worked out with my mates, I thought I could be happy here. Their world was magical in its own way. I mean, here I sat, waiting for Ferris to unpause the show on the TV with my notebook and purple pen. If that wasn’t magic, I didn’t know what was.
    He started it again and I was fascinated even more than earlier. There was so much land in the world. We watched these adorable animals called penguins fight a snowstorm. Oh, how I would love to see snow someday. It sounded wonderful. I wasn’t sure I wanted snow like they had in this place called the Arctic, but one of the warriors explained that it didn’t snow like that everywhere.
    Everyone gasped when the scene changed and a large animal called a polar bear was struggling to get out of the snow. It was truly beautiful. It rolled down a hill of snow, and the soft-voiced woman said it was cleaning its fur. I didn’t think I ever wanted to bathe in snow, but animals were very adaptable like that.
    Her cubs popped their heads out of the hole in the snow and another larger wave of sadness hit me. I missed my cub. Granted, it might be a strange nickname to give to our mate, but it worked for us. Tyler wasn’t a child by any means of the word, though he was really young to us.
    But then again, we
