I killed them, so what?

Chapter Sixteen

After a day with Axel ignoring me and Levin staring at me, I decided to head home. I would find ways to protect Axel in the background, he doesn't have to like me back or be my friend. It's something i feel like i need to do.

I yanked open the car door and sat inside,

"Wait!" Axel's shouted.

I turned my head and watched as he sprinted towards me with Anastasia and Hansel right behind him. My eyes widened in shock, well, they're moving fast.

I grabbed Axel's arm when he came into reach and shoved him into the car before slamming the door behind him. I turned around to face the twins.

"Give him to us Cecilia, we don't want to hurt you," Hansel said begging me with big eyes.

"You clearly don't want to harm her brother, but trust me, i have been dreaming of the day i would be able to kill her slowly," Anastasia said with big eyes.

"If you want him, you'll have to go through me," I said bluntly.

"My pleasure," she seethed pulling out a silver jagged whip. No wonder she is known as the Silver Dragon, that whip works like a tail, a part of her. She swipes her arm and her tail across her body tempting to cut me from the side. I duck down and grab the hunting blade i hide in my boot. I launch forward towards Anastasia in a straight line aiming for the shoulder she uses to manipulate her whip. Before i can stab her i fall to the side onto the pavement. My hand automatically goes to my shoulder where blood is starting to seep out.

"I'm so sorry Cecily...I...she's my sister, I couldn't let you hurt her," Hansel stammered. Hansel generally is a cold hearted killer but after falling for me he's left himself open and vulnerable. I pushed myself up off the group wincing whenever i moved my arm.

"It's fine Hansel," i said with a kind smile. Hansel stares at me with guilty eyes and stepped forward towards me.

"Hansel no!" Anastasia screamed. "She's tricking you, she doesn't care about you!"

"Well, well what do we have here?" I turned my head towards the source of the voice.

"Levin," I grumbled.

"You two should be ashamed, killing openly. You could have been seen," Levin scolded with mockery.

"I was just leaving," I said walking to the driver's door.

"With the prey?" he asked with a cynical smile.

"Yes, with the prey. Goodbye Levin,"

"Bye bye Cecil,"

A/N Cecil and Cecily pronounced Ceeceeil and Ceeceeily, thx :)

I gave him a fake smile and slid into the driver's seat, closing the door and stepping on the gas.

"Are you okay?" I asked Axel, who was sitting next to me silently. I turned my head to look at him, he was staring at me with wide eyes and a gaping mouth. "What?"

"You're...you're bleeding," he stammered pointing at my arm.

"I know, it hurts like a bitch," i said turning a corner and into my driveway. "Let's go,"

I stepped out of the car and walked to the front door.

"Hey Axel could you help me with the keys? It's hard to open this bloody door with one arm..." I craned my head around to see where he was.

He stood at the bottom of the stairs with his head bent down.

"What's wrong?" I asked walking towards him.

"I got you hurt," he murmured.

"No, Hansel hurt me, you didn't do anything,"

"But it was because of me!" he shouted staring at me with wild eyes. "If i hadn't done what i did in the past, you wouldn't be hurt. I wouldn't be hunted down and my life would be normal,"

"Well it's not is it? So why don't we go in and sit down and talk," i said through gritted teeth. As guilty and upset he is, i was getting annoyed and i was also in pain. "So get your sexy ass in the house now!"

Axel nodded with a hint of a smile and trudged in, i sighed and followed him in.

"So....what's your story?" I asked plopping myself down on the couch opposite him. He shuffled his feet and took a deep breath.

"There's something you need to know first," i nodded.

"Xander....he's..he's my brother,"
