Summary
It’s somewhere around a hundred to a hundred fifty years that Iris realizes being immortal is more of a curse than a gift.
Boredom was the worst part. Mind numbing, teeth grinding boredom. Reading every book on the bestseller list twice was a distraction that worked for some time. Learning an array of languages, and perfecting most of the musical instruments in existence, wasn’t cutting it anymore. She’s remodeled her entire house a few thousand times.
Even worse: being at the mercy of humans. Blood was something essential for survival. Hot, pumping, artery thumping blood. And it was getting increasingly hard to commandeer.

Summary
Iris released a shaky exhale as she gripped the steering wheel tighter. She pressed on the gas a lot harder than she meant as she pushed past a stop light that finally turned green.
Another failed interview.
The first of the month was steadily approaching. Rent was due. Her bank account was almost depleted.
She couldn’t borrow from her father or mother again. She needed to stand on her own two feet. Making that call to her parents for the third time in two months would prove their point. They’d say Iris wasn’t ready to be out on her own. They would say she should come back home. Try again in a few years. But Iris didn’t want to try again. She loved living in her studio just outside of the Bay Area. The beach was so close it was practically her backyard.
Her phone rang a moment later, and she pushed the green answer button.

Summary
Iris stared down at the two pink lines, her mouth agape. She couldn’t be pregnant, could she?
The one time she’d thrown caution to the wind and had a one-night stand.
“It only takes one time,” Grandma Esther’s voice sing-songs in her head.
This couldn’t possibly be. They’d used condoms.
“Keeping your legs planted firmly on the ground is the only form of contraception that works, young lady,” her grandmother’s disdainful tone continued to echo in her ears.
