Blood Princess

Chapter 31-Im Going to Miss You

IZEBEL POV:

The first thing I do is bite his ridiculously large hand as hard as I can which sends him stumbling back.

"You're such a dick!" I whisper, if my eyes could shoot lasers I'd blow him up right now.

"And you're an idiot." Ryland snaps back, shaking his hand. "What are you doing here?"

"What do you think I'm doing here?" I scoff.

"If you know what's good for you, you'll walk your ass back outside to my limo and sit there while I clean up your mess."

"First of all, if you know what's good for you you'll shut your damn mouth and help me. Secondly, this isn't a mess. It's a well calculated plan."

"Princess, you killed people." He growls.

"Ok, I'm not seeing your point." I mumble, looking around. "They helped ruin my life, I take theirs."

"You're a psychopath." He snaps.

"I'm the psychopath? You're the one who kidnapped me and took me to France and now you're apparently stalking me."

"Because you can't be trusted!" He snaps annoyed.

"You just don't trust me." I shrug. "Either way I'm doing this and you're not going to stop me."

"What exactly are you even here to do?" He asks, coming closer to me. "Kill more people? Get yourself killed in the process?"

"Why do you care?" I growl, trying to hold my ground. "You hate me."

He tilts his head and continues walking forward as my back presses against the wall.

He leans down so close that our lips are practically touching. "Go to the limo, princesses, I won't ask again."

"No." I growl, staring him down. "You don't scare me."

"Not in the slightest?" He asks. His hand reaches out for me. For my body. I quickly grab his wrist, stopping him.

"Not in the slightest." I whisper back.

"You make me want to scream, you know that?" He asks, using his free hand to tuck a strand of my hair behind my ear.

"You make me want to shoot myself every time you open your mouth." I snap back. He just chuckles.

"Oh I know. I like having that kind of influence over you."

"I hate you." Is the only thing I can manage to say, despite the fact adrenaline is racing through my bones.

"I hate you too." He whispers, and then his lips crash into mine.

At first I want to resist or puke, but then a feeling of warmth rushes through my body, and suddenly I'm kissing him back. I don't want it to stop. His hands start roaming around my body until they find their way to my waist and he pulls me in closer.

And then he pulls away. The both of us stare at each other for a second and I want nothing more than to the feel the warmth of his lips against mine again, but I contain myself.

"You're a shit kisser." I mumble instead.

"I did the job though, didn't I?" He says. I look at him confused until I start to feel dizzy, my head is swarming.

"What...what..."

I watch as a tear drops from his eye. A literal tear, as my legs give out and I drop to my knees.

"Ryland..." I gasp, suddenly holding my throat, trying to get air.

"You just have to trust me." He says moving towards me. I can't say anything else as my eyes start to close and the room goes black. Maybe I'm finally dead.

ELSAH POV:

It's been a week. Ivan went back home and hasn't returned. Vivi is getting released today. I've texted Izzi a million times and she hasn't answered.

Blaize and I have been...having fun. There's not many places to makeout in a hospital but we've definitely made it work. Honestly, it's hotter that way.

Now, I'm pressed against a medical cart in a random closet as his lips press down my neck.

And then the door clicks open.

His hands move to my arms quick, pulling me behind the cart and the two of us squat down trying to conceal our laughter.

The nurse grabs a couple things and then leaves, shutting the door behind her.

The both of us crack up. "You're one hell of a kisser." I smile, staring at his lips.

"I know." He smiles back. "You're beautiful you know that?"

I'm not one to blush, but the things this man does to me.

"I know." I smirk, readjusting my shirt. "Should we start from the top?"

"I wish." He sighs, standing up. "But I have to get back. With Ryland gone..."

"Wait Ryland's missing?" I snap, standing up next to him.

"Not missing...he does this sometimes. Disappears when he has some rough shit to deal with. He'll show up sooner or later." He sighs.

"Right." I smile. "Call me tonight." I smile, giving him a kiss and then running out of the closet.

I run all the way to Vivi's room and grab my phone before sneaking back outside and dial Izebel's number.

As usual, she doesn't pick up.

"If you're calling me and I didn't answer don't leave a message after the tone because I honestly don't give a fuck." The voice mail comes. I ignore her and leave a message anyway.

"Izebel Katz, don't tell me you and Ryland are on some secret island hooking up." I chuckled into the phone. "Just call me back, bitch."

I sigh before walking into the room to see a now fully awake Vivi, fixing her vase of daisies.

"Elle!" She smiles, throwing her arms around me. "Ugh I missed you!"

"Viv, you saw me two hours ago." I mumble, patting her back. "Shouldn't you be in bed anyways?"

"I don't like beds." She sniffles. "Beds are bad."

"How many pain pills did you take?" I ask, helping her back to her bed she just shrugs and leans back.

I sit on her bed next to her, my body pressing into hers. "I'm going to miss you." She whispers finally, tears coming out of her eyes. "I want to stop it."

"You can't." I smile, rubbing her hand. "Nothing can."

"If I could've just gotten the money maybe..."

"No, Viv. We both know all the money in the world wouldn't do anything."

She just nods and sobs into my shoulder.

And my heart feels like it has broken into a million pieces.

Sorry I haven't updated in an eternity! But I will be going back to my regular posting schedule and finishing the last chapters of this book! Which is sad, but I have a lot more coming soon!
