Not Dead

Chapter Ten - Preparing for the Day Ahead

Your P.O.V.

—--------------

Georg and I get into my car and before I pull out of the parking lot I turn to Georg.

"Before when I cut my hand, that guy said something about a beast, what was that about?" He sighs.

"Well, you were gonna have to know eventually. I was first turned when I was a teenager, I was fifteen and stupid. I almost died but some woman turned me. I wasn't like normal vampires though I was vicious, almost animalistic. I was so violent that we were nearly discovered. They dropped me off in that mansion and left me there. I was the first to show up. I spent two weeks alone in that mansion before Gustav showed up." I nod and he looks down.

"I'm ashamed of that part of me but there are others like me that think I could turn out to be a danger to all vampires so they want me dead." I grab his hand hoping to help comfort him. He looks up at me giving me a gentle smile. He grabs the side of my face and pulls me in for another kiss. He pulls away and rests his forehead on mine.

"Thanks for not freaking out." I smile.

"I live with four beasts that two weeks I didn't even think existed, you are the least of my worries, plus I trust you." He smiles and lets go of my face. I turn to start the car and head out. We pull into the usual spot and make the walk back, he grabs my hand holding it. I smile to myself as we make the walk back to the mansion. We open the door and Gustav barrels into us pulling us into a bear hug.

"I smelt the blood when you pulled the car in are you guys okay?" We nod.

"I got attacked again while at work but since Georg was there the only damage done was to my hand but that was kind of my fault." Gustav buries his face into my neck and sighs in relief.

"I don't know what I would have done if you got seriously hurt or worse." I rub his back with my free hand. We all pull away from the hug and Georg lets go of my hand. I grab Gustav's face with my free hand and rest my forehead on his.

"I'm okay, it was only a small cut. See?" I show him my hand and he grabs it intertwining our fingers and smiling at me. He pulls his forehead away and drags me over to the couch motioning for Georg to follow. I sit down on the couch next to Gustav who lays his head in my lap. Georg comes up behind me holding my waist. Gustav looks up at Georg and speaks.

"I see your healing ability came in." Georg chuckles.

"It actually came in the day she arrived here I just didn't say anything." I look at Gustav confused. He chuckles and flips my hand over so I can see where the cut is but it's not there anymore.

"It's never occurred to you that when Georg bites you the wound heals exceptionally fast." I shake my head.

"I just kinda figured the wound was never big enough to be seen." Georg laughs behind me.

"Oh, darling the wounds are very noticeable, you just got lucky because you being around enhanced my powers."

"Oh right, the soulmate thing." He chuckles and kisses the side of my head.

"You should get some rest it's been a long day, we'll join you in a few minutes, we have to talk about something." I smile and nod. Gustav moves his head off my lap and Georg releases my waist. I stand up and head to my room and grab my pajamas heading into the bathroom to take a shower. Once I'm done I go to my room and see Bill and Georg waiting for me. I'm a little surprised and I think it shows on my face because Bill chuckles.

"Tomorrow is a full moon so Gustav has to prepare for that." I nod and go over to my bed where Georg is waiting with open arms. I sit down in my bed and he pulls me into him leaving a few kisses on my neck. I chuckle and Bill comes over to us. Georg pulls me down so I'm laying in front of him facing Bill. Bill chuckles and lays in front of me placing a kiss on my forehead.

"Good night dear." I fall asleep not long after.

I wake up the next morning to the sounds of a struggle.

"Bill please help me! He's never been this strong before!" I feel Bill get up and I hear him open my door but as soon as he does something or more like someone comes barreling into my room wrapping me in a very fuzzy bear hug. I look over what I assume is Gustav's shoulder and see Tom he looks at me and shrugs.

"Hey, this is your fault anyways."

"How on earth is this my fault."

"I don't know but I blame you because of the whole soulmate thing." I frown at him and he just smirks at me.

"He's your problem now."

"What the hell is that supposed to mean?!" Bill comes over to me.

"Well since you're his soulmate he's not gonna want to leave your side for the rest of the day and he's only really gonna let Georg get close to you since they're close." Georg sits up behind me.

"I knew this was gonna happen so I warned him and you guys but you can't follow simple instructions." Tom groans.

"It's not my fault that his strength doubled since she showed up." Georg sighs.

"Yours would have too if you didn't decide to sulk in your room all the time like a little bitch. All you have to do is spend more than ten minutes with her Tom it isn't gonna kill you."

"Whatever." Tom walks out the door and heads to his own room slamming his door.

Today is gonna be eventful.
