Fighting Destiny

Chapter Fifteen

"Life is for the living.  

Death is for the dead.  

Let life be like music.  

And death a note unsaid."

I ran out of the room and sniffed the air. Outside just beyond the pool I seen my sisters body dangling in the air by her neck on a rope from a tree . I began to shake.

I used my vampire speed to get to the woods. Nothing, I smelled nothing at all. I climbed the tree and sliced the rope with my nails and her body fell limp on the floor.

I quickly took the rope from around her neck and picked her up running into the house and laid her on the couch.

Her heart just stopped it confuses me because I don't know who could have been stronger than her to hang her or stupid enough to try and kill her.

I let out a breath I didn't know I was holding to the sound of her heart beating again and our bound as it restored. The pain in my chest sat at ease. I bit into my wrist and put it to her lips allowing her to drink.

When I felt her begin to actually suck I pulled my wrist away. I sat on the floor and licked my wrist. Laying back I put my arm over my forehead as I began to cry.

So close to close to even losing my sister. I couldn't smell anyone nor hear anyone here. It shocked me that she was even out there and I didn't feel her. So close to the brink of death if I didn't come home when I did who would've been here for my sister.

I sighed getting up and locking the doors and windows. I returned to the living room and picked up my sisters limp body and brought her into my room.

I laid her on the bed since she may be passed out for a while. I closed my room door and windows. I sat down on the bed beside her and watched as the rope burns began to heal.

The banging on the door made me leave the trance I was in. I stood and opened the door and walked down the stairs and opened the door.

"Sheesh I know you don't like us but you don't have to lock us out."

I let them in and followed them to the living room leaning in the door way as I glared at them.

"What? " Jarrod said turning to me

"Where the hell were you guys?"

"We went to the mall."

"Where was my sister?"

"Here she went to sleep here."

"Where's Taylor, David and Aiden?"

"Still there why all the questions? "

"Ohh nothing guys don't be alarmed but the bond me and my sister share broke earlier and let me tell you it hurt like hell" I began to cry.

"It felt like my chest was on fire and it was eating me inside out a pain so unbearable it's hard to explain but wait that's not what made my heart shatter into even more pieces."

I began to cry harder and harder with each word .

"I walked to the back of the house and there dangling from a mother fucking tree is my sisters body, no that couldn't have killed her but her heart stopped and when it did our bond broke and that only showed that I wasn't here to protect her I couldn't stop it from happening though we are immortal I can still lose my sister and today only twenty minutes ago showed me that, she is all I have, she means the world to me, I let you guys in here everyday because your said to keep the fucking danger away and to protect us even though were stronger than you, you could've helped just being here obviously her guard was down I guess you weren't as useful as I thought were leaving get out."

Chase looked at me with so much pain in his eyes but I couldn't find it in me to care. The pain I was feeling and felt not to long ago is something that nothing can measure up to.

"Were sorry."

I shook my head. "Sorry doesn't wake my sister up now does it, I don't know how long it'll be before she wakes up. I loved you guys, all of you as brothers but I guess mortals are right Love is but an emotion forced by feeling depicted in the core of imagination there is no such thing as love."

"Wait-."

Tears streamed down my face and landed onto the floor as I shook my head.

"Just go." I said walking to and opening the door and letting them out. They spared me one last look before leaving I closed and locked the door behind them and leaned my back against it.

Its centuries since I've cried, centuries since I've actually felt something. I put my head in my hands as the bloody thickness soaked Lyells shirt and my hands. I cried for everyone that I killed and felt nothing, for the people I let leave my life. For all the people I left through out the centuries and for my sister because I know this is just as hard on her.

Knocking on the door made me cry even harder. I stood and wiped my face walking into the kitchen and splashing my face with water to clear the blood. I leaned over into the tap letting the water fall on my face.

The sound of the wood breaking didn't fase me at all. I just pulled from the sink and turned the tap off and leaned on the island with my head in my hands.

"Alex? "

I turned my head to look at Lyell. "What are you doing here?" I said standing up straight.

"All of the boys are upset and at my pack house driving me insane while I have Sarah in my ear complaining about you."

"Are you going to fix my door?"

"Yeah, just tell me what's wrong."

I sighed walking past him and going to my room. He followed and walked into my room and looked at the bed. He walked to it and ran his fingers along her arm.

"She's so cold."

"She is a vampire you know."

"Yeah but damn."

I shrugged. "She was hung in the back and it scared me her heart stopped and it broke our bond and scared the hell out of my wolf since I can't seem to get my emotions in order."

"Bring her to the pack house you're not staying here."

"I don't listen to anyone but myself, I can handle myself."

"Well obviously your sister can't or she wouldn't be in this situation. "

I shook my head and leaned against the wall.

"Get her we'll go I guess. "

I've been contemplating why I didn't leave instead of going to this damn pack house. One my sister is incapable and I would never leave her. Finding Hunter may get me answers and leaving will come soon after the death of everyone that's done me wrong during the time.

I sighed as the banging on my room door continues. I locked myself in a long time ago. My sister lays on the bed still very cold . I closed my eyes and laid back on the rug barricaded in the darkness of this room brings back memories of centuries ago. When I was scared of myself and didn't know who I truly was until I with the help of my sister I found myself.

Closing my eyes I let my body relax into the rug before slipping off into a dark painful sleep.
