Life Beside You

Part 6: Night-time Fears

I woke up abruptly and noticed I was no longer in the dining room, but neither was I in my own room. This certainly confused me. This room had dark purple walls and black fruniture, and definitely no sign of my mum. Noticing the latter, I ran to the door, slowing down once I noticed the plush carpet beneath my feet.

This distracted me just for a minute though, and I continued running to the door. I realized just how long the simple task was taking me and took in that I had been drugged.

I clumsily reached the handle and just as I was about to wrench the thing open, it opened on its own accord. I stared in disbelief, but then noticed blurred shapes moving towards me. Stumbling back, I hit the bed and toppled over, the shapes perching themselves next to me. 

Just for a moment in time, I retrieved my vision again and saw the male vampires coming towards me in just old fashioned robes, the dress-like things only reaching their knees. I admired the toned legs but then remembered where I was.

'See something you like?' One of them jeered.

'Awww. The poor little bibby is scawed.' Another said mockingly, starting a chorus of horrible remarks,

'Is that tears I see?'

'Isn't she a beauty?' One remarked, a murmur of agreement waving across the room.

'Pity we're gonna have to do something about that pwitty little face of yours, and no mum or grandpapa of yours is here to stop us.'

After this, I blanked them, soothing the pain caused by their already alarming comments. Even the slightest things seemed to upset her. A huge invisible force moved up my body causing a heaving sob to escape her lips. Before she could again hear their reactions, she focused on the soft salty tears making their way down her cheeks, following her cheekbones and then separating at the chin to curve along the neck or drip down into her chest. I felt them build up, attempting to get a noise out of my stubborn mouth, while I clamped it shut, attempting everything to distract myself. 

'Pity the girl won't get a sense of losing that petty inocence of hers, maybe we should show her.' One said, alerting me to their presence again and causing my head to snap up and my eyes widen in alarm.

They started to touch me in horrible places, and I simply lay still, disallowing them to get a pleasure out of her painful cries. Before any clothing was removed however, a voice broke through the approving moans, groans and murmurs of the young male vampires. 

'How dare you touch my mate like that!!' The voice said, and I was greatful to my mate, who I now knew was Max. I had forgotten the exchange the other day and had forgotten to return a message to his phone. I looked up apologetically, as Max glared at the vampires.

'Or what you gonna do, Maxie Boy?? You gonna try to fight us? Nah, you're too much of a wimpy servant.' A vampire jeered to my appall.

I turned to Max, pleading with my eyes for him to escape and not get himself hurt. Already my wolf was speaking up, determined to not allow its newfound mate to come to any harm. 

'That is suprisingly what I had in mind Jinz, although, with that puny brain of yours, I'm suprised you were able to catch on to anything at all!' Max said with determination, turning to me with a reassuring glance before being swallowed up in a mass of angry vampires. I screamed and thrashed about but two extremely strong vampires had held me down and clamped a cold hand over my mouth. There was only one choice. I would have to shift.

I had been holding this off, my first experience had been very painful indeed and I had refused to try shifting again, much to my alpha father's dismay. I shifted, my bones prepared and ready but aching when the ropes cut into my wrists. This time, I was ready.

The fury of my mate's capture got the better of me. 

And off I went.
