Fighting For Love

Chapter 10

Grayson P.O.V

I wake up to a creak in the wood floor. Once I lean up and peak at the door, I don't see anything alarming. Once I lay back down, I make sure to scoot closer to Zain till his arms wrap themselves back around me. The same noise came again. It sounds as if someone were in my house and walking towards my door. I don't think much more of it and close my eyes. The noise never came again, so I thought it was just the house settling.

That was so far from the truth. Before I knew it, a hand had slapped over my mouth to muffle my screams. I snap my eyes open all the while 3 men with masks on start to pull me from bed, making sure to not wake Zain up. That man is a heavy sleeper *Eye roll*.  Before they reach the door, one of them falters and I drop to the floor with a thud.

"ZAIN!!" I scream out to him. I see from where I am that he stirs a bit before opening his eyes. He sees the scene in front of him and immediately jumps into action. He runs up the guy closest to him and lands a heavy blow to the jaw. The man drops to the ground hold his jaw and Screaming. The second guy gets a powerful kick to his side and he begins to wobble away down the hall.

He doesn't get very far before Zain speeds up to him and throws him down the stairs. Zain stands there for a second analyzing if he's gonna move or not. After seeing the satisfied look on his face, I can almost guarantee that he won't be moving any time soon.

Zain locks eyes with the Last perpetrator and slowly begins to walk towards him. He begins to swiftly back up until he basically becomes one with the wall. Zain gets right up to his face, eyes glowing red and fangs out. A deep growl like sound rips through his throat before he rips the mask from his head. I get a clear look at his face and he seems almost... recognizable. Almost like I know him from somewhere.

I push the thought to the back of my head due to Zain grabbing him by the throat and lifting him off the ground.

"I will give you one chance to tell me who the fuck you are and who the fuck you work for or I will make sure there will be nothing left of you to be found!" He growls to him.

I won't lie to you. When he said those words, It kinda turned me on ;). Before anything could happen, the man chuckled under his breathe. Not seeming to be scared anymore.

"Do you truly think we're gonna be the only ones after your boy? There's gonna be countless coming for him. He is a disgrace to nature itself and needs to be put down. If I were you, I'd dump him."

His words sent anger down my spine and made my blood boil. The familiar tingling sensation returns to my skin. I begin to hear a slight ringing in my ears.

"You heard him. Who. Are. You. Otherwise I'll kill you myself" I say with a threatening tone laced with Power.

He looks me up and down then begins to laugh out loud. He really thinks I'm joking? We'll see about that. I let the heat spread rapidly through my veins. The room around me begins to shake and the familiar glow begins to emit from my skin. Everything becomes more clear and brighter as the energy builds within. The palms of my hands begin to be surrounded by bolts of electricity.

The face on the man begins to twist to one of horror and fear. I slowly etch my way to him and get in his face. I see my reflection in his eyes and can see that my own eyes aren't the usual blue, but a bright glowing white.

"I-I'm Malachi. I don't know who I work for but only that you're the t-target." His words are full of fear and that sends a satisfactory shiver down my spine. I smile towards him and back away. I turn my head towards Zain to see him staring at me with Admiration.

"Listen here Malachi. I'm gonna let you in on a little secret." Feeling the power grow with my words.

"You have not only trespassed into my home. But also disturbed my Slumber. And when that happens... nothing good ever comes of it. So give me ONE GOOD reason why I shouldn't just kill you right here?" The power continues to grow, begging to be released.

He eyes widen with fear and tear begin to form. 

"B-because I can h-help you find y-your mom" his words shock me. What does he know I wonder but at the same time, Anger spikes through me.

"Don't you dare!!! If anything happens to her, I swear on everything, I will enjoy watching you die" I hear the words coming out of my mouth and they're laced with an enormous amount of Venom.

"Nothing will! He only took her to use as leverage against you!" His body begins to shake.

"Who is He?!" I became persistent to no such luck. He begins to silently sob since he knows his life is on the line.

"I don't know- IM SORRY!" My mind goes completely dark and all I can imagine is one thing. That would be his death.

"Then you are of no use to me" he begins to sob loudly.

I feel my feet lift from the ground as the consuming power takes over my body. My head leans back as all of this energy is screaming to be let go. My head involuntarily leans back and my eyes shut tight. The ringing sounds in my ears become louder with every passing second until... boom.

The energy that was trapped in my body explodes past my finger tips. Malachi begins to scream with a force that almost made me feel bad. His body begins to turn red and blister. Within a couple seconds, his body bursts into flames until he is nothing but a pile of ash on the floor.

I touch down on the ground and turn around. I almost forgot about the other 2. I went to take a step down the hall, before Zain stops me by my shoulder. I turn my head to look at him questioningly.

"Don't do anything to them just yet. They might know more than the previous" I nodded in response and worked to get the energy under control. It took a bit of work since I didn't let it get this far, ever.  Once I was more calmed down, pictures of what just happened had flashed through my mind.

I'm sat on the edge of the bed when Zain comes back and letting me know that he had tied the other 2 up in the basement. All I did was give a slight verbal response. He sat next to me and wrapped his arms around me. I just sat there with no emotion on my face, just a blank slate.

"Why do I get the feeling that I should feel bad about what I just did? I mean, he could've had a family and I killed him like he was nothing."
He lifts my face by my chin and places a small chaste kiss upon my lips.

"He came into your home, Attempted to kidnap you, proceeded to threaten you and blackmailed you. I thought you were amazing."
I smiled at him softly and kissed him again.

He laid back on the bed and I cuddled up next to him. I could hear his soft snores after awhile signifying that he was sleep. Meanwhile, I was wide awake with images flashing through my thoughts. I know for a fact I'm not gonna be able to sleep tonight. It's gonna be a long night...
