Drain Me

Chapter 4

               

I arrived back to the mansion surprisingly in one peace. I opened the back door and out jumped Dolce, he obviously had to pee because he ran straight to a nearby tree and handled his business. I walked inside carrying Dolce's dog treats and shirts while Selene carried the four dog food bags. Her strength really surprises me. I put Dolce's treats and clothes in my room and flopped myself down on the bed. Closing my eyes to think for a moment without other people... or vampires picking through my brain.

        I thought about Emilio and Samael. How could Samael be concerned with what ever Emilio thinks of me? We're not dating and I surely don't plan on us doing so, seeing as how he is the one that's keeping me away from my family and friends. How could he possibly think that I would have any romantic feelings toward him at all? If anything my romance life is back in my human world where I should be. And then there's Emilio. For some strange reason I would actually like to know who this mysterious person is. Maybe he's just misunderstood, or maybe he has other motives for finding an interest in me. Either way no one truly deserves the hostile tension that was thrown at him by Samael.

       I sighed, "Samael." I whispered. He may be one of the most handsome boys I've ever met but that still doesn't give him the right to think that he owns me... where is all of this coming from? Why am I becoming so hateful and angry all of a sudden? It seems these vampires are starting to bring out the worst in me. Or maybe I'm finally realizing that they don't really deserve my peace and kindness. Well maybe Selene does, I mean she did pay for my dogs food supplies, and his other supplements. Samael did keep Lean from killing Dolce, and he did allow me to keep him. I'm just really confused at this point, or maybe I just have a real bad case of homesickness right now... I don't know what or how to feel at the moment. I just really need to see a familiar face.

         My door started to quietly open up. I looked to see who it was that was invading my privacy and saw that it was Samael.

        "Leave." I aggravatingly told him. He just stood there looking confused. So I repeated myself this time saying it slower so that he would understand where I'm getting at. But I'm guessing it's opposite day because he just walked right in without hesitation.

       "Why should I leave?" he angrily asked me. "If this is about what happened earlier today then I'm not the one who's at fault-"

       "It has nothing to do with that," I cut him off. "Don't you think that I may be missing my home?" I asked sitting myself upright preparing to stare him down.

      "Why should I care?" he nonchalantly inquired.

     "How could you be so heartless? I have a family and friends too! Your not the only one with a life," I yelled at him.

     "Please, I'm sure your life was no better than it is now," he carelessly implied.

     "You don't know that."

    "Well you obviously didn't deny it, so it must be true. And why are you so angry all of a sudden? You were just fine a minute ago."

     "Maybe it's because I was finally able to sit down and think about where I am, how I got here, and who I am and who I’m not here with!" I exclaimed.

     "Well maybe you should stop thinking," he said and walked out while slamming the door behind him. I just sat there on my bed staring dumbly at the door. How dare he be mad at me when he's the one that's in the wrong? He has no idea of what I'm going through and nor does he understand how I feel... how do I feel? They've done some pretty helpful things for me so far that I don't know whether I should be mad or thankful and happy. If they just treated me like a load of crap then I'm sure that hating them would be a whole lot easier. But how do you hate someone that is nice to you? How do you hate someone that wants to befriend you? How do you hate someone that wants to protect you?
