Love Never Dies Without Blood

Chapter 5

        A low growl awoke me. Wait…. WTF? A growl!?!?! I slowly opened my eyes the first thing I realized was that the blood on the chairs wasn’t there anymore… someone else was here. I sat up and rubbed my eyes. Once I got my vision back again I tried not to move. On the right side of the bed as a tiger sleeping but it wasn’t like a normal tiger it was purpleish-blueish instead orange. On the left was a black wolf; it was huge, almost as big as the tiger.
            “I’m glad sleeping beauty is awake, right?” the wolf stood and walked toward its owner “miss me, beautiful?”
            “No” the tiger came closer to me “get it away”
            “Don’t try to hide it, lovely, I saw hugging my shirt and smiling.” His face features suddenly turned sad “Come on, babe, I know I did wrong but when are you gonna stop hiding your love for me?”
            “Why are this animals here?”
        He smiled “Cause this is where they belong. Meet Wolfie,” he petted the wolf that was sitting besides him then pointed at the tiger “that’s yours, you have to name it.”
I turned towards the tiger. It was beautiful well every tiger is beautiful to me “Tigger, that’s your name.” I turned back to Ace “You were supposed to be dead”
            “So are you” he responded sitting down at the corner of the bed “But apparently we don’t die so easily”
            “Where’s Akiva?”
            “Hell! I don’t know and I don’t care!” he grinned “but you know what I know…. You’re in my house and you’re in my room, on my bed and I’m shirtless”
            I hadn’t realized he didn’t have a shirt but by just looking at him I realized that he had been working out, probably killing… again. I got off the bed “ And you’re still the pervert I remember”
            I walked out of the room, Tigger not far behind. The hall’s lights were lit and all the blood was cleared.
            “Why didn’t you turn the lights on when you got here? The hall wouldn’t have looked that bad” said Ace catching up, walking besides me.
            “How do you know I didn’t?” I said stopping and looking at him
He smiled that flirty smile, that smile that made me want to melt into his arms. “Wolfie was there, he’s always there”
I kneeled down besides Wolfie and looked at him. He did have laser red eyes but they weren’t scary anymore actually they made him look adorable “You were very quite, boy. Did your bitchy owner give you a reward for being so adorable” Tigger looked at me with sad eyes “As soon as I find something, I’ll reward you to for being so adorable” I petted both of them before stand up
            “He did reward me, Mistress, Master gave me extra meat,” a deep voice said in my head
            “ I want extra meat too, Mistress.,” said another voice but a bit deeper
Startled I looked at Ace for help. He laughed. “They talk but only heard to you and me”
            “Why just us?”
            Wolfie answered this time “Because only our master can hear us”
            Tigger joined in “But you and Master are rare so rare things happen for example: both of you can hear both of us”
            “What do you mean we’re rare?”
            “Wo! There, babe, you ask a lot of questions. Breakfast is ready so save it” he kissed my cheek put his arm around my waist. “Save your little smart brain for later”
Wolfie and Tigger raced down the stairs and into the kitchen. “Where you find them?”
        He chuckled “Wow bae you just can’t stop asking questions can you? Anyway I went for a walk in the woods to see if I would find any unlucky travelers. And I heard a voice so I followed it expecting to see a boy but I found Wolfie. Then walking back home I heard another voice to find Tigger at first they were surprised when I told them I could hear both of them but Tigger said he was looking for a girl and with that I knew who he was looking for. But since you never answered my calls or messages I had to get your attention soo…”
        “You killed my brother to get my attention!!!!! You little bitch!” I pushed him away and walked down the stairs before him.
