Chapter 7
She Will Understand...I Hope.
(Jake's POV )
I left the room before I broke down and let her out of the cage. She certainly had a way to make me feel guilty even when I was protecting her. Why had I hated her so much before?
(Flash Back)
The smell of the autumn wind passing by me as I get on my horse. This is it. I may not come back alive I think to myself. But that doesn't stop me I'm a hunter it's my job to destroy these beasts. After riding in the woods for an hour I see her. Her long black hair that comes to her knees and those crystal blue eyes that could kill with a simple glare. I jumped off my horse and get ready for a fight. This vampire had been known for killing hunters left and right. I pulled my sword out and waiting. In a matter of moments she was a few yards away from me. "Aww another hunter who thinks they can kill me?" I stared at her she was beautiful... I had never seen her this close up. My sword slipped from my hand and hit the ground. Next thing I knew she had me pinned to a tree. "Drink." He bit down on her wrist and held it to my mouth. As a hunter I would have been killed for doing such a thing but I was to focused on her face to realize what I was doing. As she held her wrist to my mouth and her blood flowed down my throat she bit down on my neck. I flinched but continued to drink her blood. Suddenly she pulled away. "NO!!!....You're HIM" she said it so much disgust I was confused. She picked my sword up off the ground and in a moment had it pinning me to the tree. Once this was done she collapsed and turned into a heap of ash. What had my blood done to her. The agony I went through there in those woods. I was to weak to pull the sword out but I wasn't weak enough to pass out. I didn't die until the next day.
(back to reality)
I sat with my back against the door that Sam was behind. I needed her. It horrified me the first time I saw her she looked just like that vampire. But that night in the woods when I left that bruise on her arm I realized she was the other avid. But now that she thought I was the one who put her in a dam/n bird cage she will never open up to me or trust me for that matter. To boot she's afraid of me. I had lost my temper with her in the woods and bit her. I should have just thrown her over my shoulder. Now I was a hopeless romantic praying that the love of my life wont hate me for eternity. I should have killed Arron when I had the chance, but instead I let him live thinking that maybe he will change. The vampire venom wasn't going to last much longer either. Sam had already gotten her emotions back. I could hear her softly crying. Sadness came over me I just wanted to go in there pull her into my arms and tell her everything was going to be okay. Truth was not even I knew if everything was going to be okay. Finally I heard her soft breathing, the venom had worn off. I stepped into the room with out the faintest noise and watch her. I could tell she was thinking about how to escape but i knew from experience it was impossible to escape that cage. Where do you think the council kept me when I was going through my transformation and I was a vampire I had a bigger chance to escape and still I couldn't find one and Sam wasn't a vampire. She would be soon though. The council was forcing me to turn her before her avid power spread to her heart or else the mere pain would kill her fragile human body. I knew what that was like... I live through it every day. Even though I'm a vampire my power is to strong for my body so i have to fight it. Some days it feels like I'm being torn apart others it feels like I'm burning in He/l either way it always hurts. The council told me once I turn Sam and we share a blood bond the pain wont bother either of us. Right now I have to stay close to her or she will feel it. One of the down sides of the avid's bond they have to be near each other all the time or.., instant pain. It was only two more days until the full moon when I could finally turn Sam. I wonder if I can get her to trust me before then.
