Bus Stops and Coffee

Chapter 32

Riley POV

I'd definitely lost a part of myself. Every other emotion besides the daily pain I felt had either hidden itself deep inside me or disappeared all together. My senses had been heightened and I was sensitive to practically every sound. My gaze right now was leveled with the door across the room. I tiled my head; eyes narrowing as I stared at it.

Suddenly it opened and once again I was faced with Christopher. He reached out a hand towards me and I slapped it away quickly. He looked shocked at my actions and his eyebrows furrowed as he grabbed me by the shoulder; his fingers digging into a pressure point. I yelped in pain.

"That's what I thought." he said. I was pulled up from my place on the bed and led down the familiar path.

'Baby I'm coming for you.' Lucas' voice filled my head.

'Lucas... Please hurry....' he was the only one right now that made my feelings reappear.

'I'm coming as fast as I can baby.' he replied before his voice was gone again. My soul yearned for him, every part of my body wanted only him. And this time I wasn't as scared when I saw the table. As soon as I was strapped on my teeth sunk into my lip. Into the teeth marks that already covered my bottom lip; made the moment I dcidd I opulent humor them with voicing my pain.

The whole time I prayed, and hoped that Lucas Kyle hurry. The room shook with the force of something from above ground. One of the scientists went to see what as going on.

"It's explosions. The vampires are attacking!" he said. A few moved to go outside while others stated to set up the monitors and stuff.

"Seems like I'll have to go fight. Don't worry, you be perfectly safe down here where nobody can find you." he sat patting my cheek before running out the room. Be I started to struggle. If Lucas was struggling to get me out then I wanted to at least try again.

But of course the restraints were hella tight so I only succeeded in hurting my wrists. The increased shaking and yelling outside looked like it unnerved the scientists.

"You guys should go fight." I said, my voice cracking since I hadn't used it in days.

"We don't fight. We experiment." one said.

"Oh okay. I mean, when all your little hunter friends die there'll be nothing left for you to do." I jeered. They stopped moving around.

"They won't all die."

"Yes they will. And you'll die to once Lucas finds you." I said with a ghost of a smile on my lips.

'Baby where are you?' came Lucas' voice.

"Here! I'm right here!" I shouted, as if he was close enough to hear.

'I'm close to finding you. Just give me a minute.'

"Please come get me. Please." I begged, earning me weird looks from the scientists. They must have thought I was hallucinating, and apparently didn't know what to do. I guess they see this as an unaccounted for side effect.

There was that pull on my soul again; Lucas is near. My body tingled and writhed as he got closer, I need to see him. For a moment things went quiet, but then the door to the room flew off its hinges. A scientists scream ripped through the air as the heavy metal crushed him. The others looked to the now occupied doorway.

"Lucas!" I pulled at my restraints. His eyes focused on me and then flashed dangerously.

"L-L-Lucas?" the scientists stuttered. They didn't move an inch, and if they didn't have to breath they wouldn't be doing that either. They knew who he was and what he could do to them.

Walking over to me he ripped the restraints from off the table and pulled me into a sitting position. I wasted no time in pressing my lips to his hungrily. I was met with the same force from him. His hands gripped my waist; warming my quickly heating body. I whimpered when he pulled on my lip with his teeth. He pulled back to see the marks I left there and his eyes registered worry before anger. The scientists flinched severely when he looked at them.

I looked to them with even more anger; the ones who'd strapped me up and injected me with those got damn serums. I got down on shaky legs and went over to the desk, sweeping my hand across it and knocking the serums to the floor. One needle managed to escape, but it looked different.

"What is this?" I asked. They looked at each other.

"Answer her!" Lucas roared.

"It's a mix of two of the serums Malik wanted us to try." the head scientist squeaked. They were crying now. A malicious smile spread across my lips and a dry laughed bubbled up. I held up a finger; motioning for the man to come over. He hesitated before walking towards me. I grabbed him hard my his hair. He winced.

"You've been pumping this shit into me for days bitch!" I screamed into his face.

"Your turn." I said pushing the needle into his neck. His face contorted in pain as I let him go. Now all I wanted was to get out the room. He'd probably die with whatever mix that was. If not, the crumbling ceiling would crush them all in a matter of minutes. I turned fast and threw myself into Lucas's arms. He lifted me easily and I buried my face in his neck; inhaling his scent. I was vaguely aware that Malik was nowhere to be found as we made put way outI of there. That bastard had snuck away but right now I didn't care. I blocked out everything else except for Lucas.

Lucas' POV

I gave the signal for everyone to round up and head back to the Clan manor. I wish I could've killed Malik for what he put Riley-his daughter and my mate- through. But nobody could find him.

Riley was unstoppable once we got back to the manor. Hands touching, lips locking, bodies rubbing together heatedly. Our pace; fast and desperate. I had flashed us to my bedroom and in an effort to get to the bed we had already knocked stuff over and broken other things.

I felt my back hit my bed as Riley pushed me down. Her hot, flushed body was on top of mine and something stirred in my soul. It felt like the mate link between us was getting stronger, making me excited because it was as if it was a natural mate bond between vampires.

"Mhm, Riley." I held her cheeks to look her in the face.

"Calm down baby, I'm right here. I'm not going anywhere." I whispered. Tears built in her eyes and rolled down her face. I wiped them away with my fingers and rested my forehead on hers.

"Please..." she said against my lips. I held her under her thighs and flipped us over so I was on top. I kissed across her neck, licking slowly and then sucking on a sensitive spot between her shoulder and neck. My teeth lightly scraped against her skin.

"Please what?" I whispered.

"Take me." she whimpered. She doesn't how long I'd been waiting for her to say those words to me.
