Asmodeus

Chapter 10

I'm naked, I feel his warm hands gliding across me, teasing me, caressing me."Be mine," Asmodeus whispers. NO! My eyes shoot open as I try to catch my breath, we are still in the car, still driving, Daeva is passed out on the back seat and Silas is focused on the road. He glances over to me as I gather my thoughts, "Asmodeus?" he questions and I nod "if you don't mind me asking what is it that he does in your dreams, Mia never told me" I look over to Silas as he still watches the road "urm... he... controls them so he can do whatever he likes. He's in my head so he knows what I like and dislike. He plays on it, " I say .How so? Sorry I don't mean to overstep" he says apologetically "no it's okay, you already know how inexperienced I am in the whole bedroom department" I laugh with embarrassment "he uses it to his advantage and takes what I believe it to feel like, making it actually feel real" I say "like a kiss for example, I've never been kissed, he knows this but I imagine it to feel warm, delicate and raw so that's how he makes it feel" I say "so it's everything you ever imagined?" Silas asks, bringing the car to a stop outside of a little derelict store. I nod. "That explains it, then" he sighs as he steps out of the car, I also climb out of the car and begin to stretch my legs. I walk around the corner of the store looking for a bathroom and head towards it, passing three trucks along the way. I do what I have to do and wash my hands, splashing water on my face to wake me up as the door to the toilets open and a tall, skinny, rough looking man walks in. "Excuse me," I say, letting out a small polite smile as I try to pass him, but he blocks the door. "Can I help you?" I ask as I begin to panic slightly, he smiles before he speaks revealing his fangs, a vampire "just a little bite, a little hit to keep me going" he says in a strong country accent as he steps towards me causing me to step back "I have nothing to offer you, I'm poisonous" I lie in a complete state of fear "I can smell it on you, I could smell it a mile off" he says as he lunges towards me, I scream as I try to push him off and I begin punching him as he throws me against the wall. Then everything goes dark.
I awake trying to move my arms, but they are being held down, I am tied down. I try to scream, but my mouth is covered, I'm in the back of a truck, I think. I try to kick my legs out, but they are also tied. Asmodeus, where are you? I need you, help me please. I beg silently in my head as I feel a sharp scratch across my wrist, I lift my head up as much as I can to see the man from the bathroom collecting my blood in blood bags. What the actual fuck. I throw my limbs around the best I can screaming my muffled scream and trying to free myself by loosening the rope that binds me. It didn't work. Asmodeus please, I silently beg again.
Before I knew it the doors to the trailer swung open and the man's neck had been snapped, Silas. He wasted no time in freeing my hands and I began to untie my feet as blood still poured from my wrist. I look over as Daeva watches me, eyes wide, an expression I had never seen before and fangs out, ready. "Silas" I say as he continues trying to help me "Silas, get Daeva out of here!" I scream as he turns to look at her before pulling her away from the truck, from me. I finish freeing myself before cutting a piece of fabric from an old blanket that lay on the floor, I wrapped it multiple times around my wrist ensuring that no blood could be seen and I climb out of the truck. Silas is waiting for me but I don't see Daeva "Is Daeva okay?" I ask as I slip my jacket back on, he nods "she's back in the car, calming down" he reassures "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to" he cuts me off "it's not you, us vampires can smell your power, the more power you have the better you taste, your blood is like a drug, it gives us a thrill, an energy boost and it heightens our powers for a short while, it's highly addictive" he says "Asmodeus didn't help, I tried to... Nevermind" I sigh as I walk back towards the car, slipping in the passenger seat. "Hey" I say to Daeva "how are you feeling?" I ask as she lays back with her eyes closed, she doesn't respond.
"She just fought every instinct in her body, that takes so much self control, she must really care for you" Silas says as we begin to drive again. "You didn't seem to have a problem" I point out "I've had hundreds of years to practice" he responds as his eyes remain once again on the road. I watch him for a while before I fall back to sleep.
I'm in darkness, no walls, no ceiling just darkness. My name is being repeated over and over again, Beatrix, Beatrix, Beatrix. It's Asmodeus. "Asmodeus where are you? Why didn't you help me? I needed you!" I scream into the nothingness "I feel the way you are when you're with him, I feel the rush, I feel the butterflies, I feel the warmth" Asmodeus shouts, I do not see him, his voice just echos "Silas?" I question "I don't care for him like that" I shout "oh so you won't mind if I kill him" he laughs, before I have chance to respond someone pulls me from my own mind by shaking my shoulder "hey, hey, you're having a bad dream" Silas says lightly shaking me awake "I'm sorry" I say as I rub the tiredness from my eyes "it's okay, we are here" he points out the window to a bunch of trees, a large forest, with hills and mountains. Where is here? I look out the window confused "a small community live out in the mountains, where they can roam, be free and not get caught" he says meaning the werewolves.
He parks the car on the side of the road and I look back at Daeva "morning sunshine" I sing as I shake her knee, she shoves me off in protest "we are here, wherever here might be" I say as I continue to shake her awake "fine, I'm up!" she snaps in her moody tired voice, she's not much of a morning person, can I call it that? It's not morning, it's late afternoon and the sun is slowly leaving. I step out of the car and make my way to the boot where Silas is "so now what? We head up the mountains?" I ask as he rummages around, looking for something "no, they are already watching" he says as he pulls a flask from the boot and sips from it.
