MERCY! Those were good questions. I'm so glad to hear that Dani's birthday is coming and we're going to get more information about Dahlia. If this story wasn't so good, I would've wandered away by now.
I don't believe we know enough about Vinicious yet to fit him into any kind of box. What better way to be a part of the future and the "revolution"?? Dani's gift is unique and still developing. Vinicious would already know how to use the power. In the comments, a lot of people say that Vinicious is "narcissistic". What if that's why he created Dani to beautifully angelic???? Just thinking...
Just a thought... What if Vinicious embedded his essence/conciousness in Dani and had set this assassination attempt up to unlock it. Vinicious would be "reborn" with super powers.
It occurred to me that these aren't just teenagers, but vampire teenagers. Other than some flirting, a kiss, and a touch of jealousy... Where's the romance? Just sayin'.
Wow! I haven't been this excited about a story in a very long time. Fascinating, intriguing, suspenseful. I don't fully understand what's going on, but I can't wait to find out. Is it possible that Dani has all the powers of the Specials?? Hmmmm.
