"You've consumed my thoughts and dreams. When I smell the fresh, sweet sent of the ocean I think: she'd like that."
A couple months ago...
My eyes follow the vampire who is shuffling around the around the mansion. The smell of rot and must is pungent, and the coldness of the leather couch on my unclothed thighs isn't helping.
From the side of my eye I spot Elena bringing her knees to her chest. The metallic taste slowly slipping into my mouth from me biting my lip so hard. A habit I never seemed to shake.
My heart jumps in suprise when a man storms into the dirty room we're kept in. I watch as his chest heave's frantically.
"He's here, this was a mistake-" He rushes out.
I hear Elena's breathing pick up next to me, and I don't blame her. Only a few hours ago we were kidnapped and brought to a abandoned mansion. After the masquerade party I had offered to lend Elena a spare shirt that I keep in my car; considering her current one was soaked in blood. That's when we were ambushed and dumped on this old creaky couch.
"No. I told you I would get us out of this, you have to trust me." The girl who had smacked the life out of Elena not that long ago, coos.
Her arms reach out but he steps back.
"No!" He shouts at her in hysteria, "He wants me dead Rose!"
So that's her name. Rose. I was expecting something more old for the vampire like Margaret.
She looks him deep in his eyes and puts her hands on his arms, gripping them tight.
"He wants her more," Rose says, using her head to gesture at Elena.
"I can't do this! You give her to him like mercy. I need to get out of here-" He stumbles over his words, visibly shaking at this point.
"Hey!" Rose softens her tone, "What are we?"
Without taking my eyes off the two, I feel Elena grabbing my hands. I don't know if she did that to comfort herself or me from the fact we're trapped with two vampires. I don't understand her anxiety, seeing as they wouldn't hurt Elena, me however, i'm not sure. It's not like I would let then get close enough to harm me though.
The vampire takes a deep breath in, gripping her arm back. "Family. Forever."
Three heavy knocks travel through the house, instantly shifting the mood. I give a glance towards Elena to see her staring at the two of them, confusion written on her face.
