My Blood On Her Lips (GXG)

15. My blood on her lips

I successfully get back up and clench my fists, trying not to rip that strange vampire's head off...just yet. "Soleil isn't yours, you freak! And I'm going to save her." I growl lowly and continue in a quiet, threatening tone: "I'm ready to kill for her."

He chuckles, without a worry in the world. "Ah, young love...such a stupid thing. I'd like to see you try. Go ahead, kill me." I feel the burning sensation in my head again. You can't control me, Sigfrid taught me how to fight back! I look at him with hatred. I need to destroy him. I need to save Soleil!

"You're dead," I growl, throwing a punch his way. He only chuckles and dodges it. I start throwing multiple punches his way, but he just continues dodging and somehow still causing my head to hurt. "Stop with your tricks and fight me, bastard!" I shout while protecting my mind from his influence.

I swiftly jump away when I feel him pressuring my mind more. We hold eyecontact while battling in my mind, me glaring at him with a murderous gaze and him looking unfazed. You won't get away with this!

Suddenly, it feels like something broke, and he lets out a dissatisfied sound, trying to regain his composure. Now's my chance! I lunge towards him once again and push him with all my might. He flies into the table and breaks a bunch of small vials filled with weird, red colored liquids.

His face changes from expresionless to angry. Before he can move, I pin him to the ground. "Tell me where Soleil is," I growl, applying pressure to his neck. "Why should I?" He chuckles lowly and smirks. "Oh well, I suppose I can tell you where she never was, though." His grin gets evil, like he's about to tell me something I won't like. He can't distract me.

"She was never on top of me like you currently are," he laughs. I freeze and whisper: "W-What does that mean?" He smirks: "Interpret it yourself." My thoughts start spiralling, and I feel sick. "What did you do to her?!"

This small distraction was all he needed to kick me away, sending me flying into the wall. I feel the stone crack behind my back. He's in front of me, pressing me into the wall in a second. He leans down and whispers: "Just kidding. I didn't do anything. But your reaction was very amusing. The cause of your defeat will be her. Your dear Soleil."

I thrash around and try to punch him. "Keep her name out of your mouth!" He chuckles. "Nope. So-leil. Ma So-leil." I grit my teeth and bang my head into his furiously, making him loosen his grip.

I slip out of his grasp and attack him mercilessly. In a few seconds, I get him on the floor, with my hands above his heart, ready to pull it out of its ribcage. He looks like he's realized it's over for him and says weakly, maybe even a bit sorry: "Wait! Soleil is out there fighting. She's drugged, so she's loyal to SIMP and kills vampires."

I feel my heart sink hearing this. I grab his neck and make him face me: "How do I save her?!" He replies irritatedly: "Why the fuck would I even think about that?" I bang his head against the floor and bring it back up. "Then start thinking!" He winces as his head makes contact with the floor, then replies: "You'd have to somehow extract the drug out of her blood. I'm not even sure if that's possible, taking into account you probably want to keep her alive."

Useless. I punch him so he loses consciousness and run faster than ever, out of the room, up the staircase and outside the castle. I hear the sound of battle further down the small street and run in that direction, hoping I'm not too late. Soleil... I'm coming to save you, hold on...

Soleil POV

As I slash through another wretched being's throat, I feel a strange sensation in my head. Some sort of a voice, but I can't quite hear what it's saying. Whose is it? I really can't tell...
