Making A New Mark

Chapter 8-Kenyon

I tried to hold on to Noelle but she pushed me away. I showed her what she was dying to know. I've marked her. I have to turn her, but I'll only do it on her terms. "Kenyon!" I heard Mike's voice and swung around gluing my eyes to his. "She's just a girl. Get over it man." I grew angry and let it all out on him. I didn't mean to, but I did. 

"Shut the hell up! You don't fucking understand, you never would! She's everything I've ever wanted and I've been around long enough to know when somethings real and what we have is! It's the way she smiles and laughs it just makes me feel." 

"Man, I get you. Honestly though how did you expect her to take it, I mean the way you told her was shit. You don't get drop that on someone as if you don't even fucking care. What if she tells someone else that doesn't know?" He said eyes fixed on me. I held onto my rage and calmed myself. 

"She won't. She's marked! She knows my life now, and she can feel how bad it can get for me if anyone else finds out." I said with an anger flared in my eyes turning them red. 

"I get man shit don't get mad at me. I don't want to fight. We've been friends for hundereds of years, don't start fighting with me now. Okay?" He said this with a concered tone so my mind settled and I thought carefully. 

"I understand. It's just that you don't. She remines me of how my life would be if I wasn't turned. She's everything I wish I could be, because I'm everything I hate." I spoke with a sadened tone in my voice because I am...sad. I usually can block out these...uh feelings but this time I couldn't. "Okay, I'll give you some time. Just remember that friends come before girls, and a pack comes before all." He jumped down to the balcony then onto the ground and then he was gone...vanished. I hate when he uses the pack against me! 

Intriged with rage I picked up a chair and threw it. It flew beyond the trees out my windows. Causing the trees to shake intensly and make them seem to dance against the forces of my strength and anger. 

I can't stand this. I picked up my phone and went to her name and stared at it thinking if this was a good idea or not, but I knew no matter which it seemed I would still try to call her so I did. After one ring I heard her voice over the phone and this caused my stomach to turn. 

She sounded weak and hurt but she hid it in her voice when she spoke, "Kenyon, I don't feel to well. I can't leave my dad....turn me." My heart dropped not knowing if this was a bad thing or a good thing. 

"Do you want this?" I asked her because I can't live knowing I've made this choice for her, I'll only do it if it's what she truely wants. "Yes, Kenyon. I've been getting sicker, and no one knows what's wrong with me but I want it to stop. Need it to stop. I need you. Now." She said this and I could hear her voice cracking like lightening hitting the ground with great power. I pulled myself up and ran to her house. Within about 5 minutes I was there and at her window knocking with concern. My care was genuine. 

She got up and walked to the window opening it and inviting me in. I was broken when I saw her body was thinned out and sore. I came in picking her up and laying her down on the bed. I kissed the top of her head and laid with her awhile. "Noe. I love you." I said hoping maybe she felt the same. "I love you too." She said and I heard it in her voice that she meant it which made my heart tighten and made me feel complete. 

I smiled and kissed her gently and softly because I knew she was hurting. "Do it. Please Kenyon." I leaned to her neck and kissed it and ran my soft tongue along her veins where I'd plan to bite. I heard her heart beat increase. She tasted wonderful. I sunk my teeth in her causing her to moan in slight pain from the buring and stinging sensation. 

I lightly drank a bit from her and grabbed her shirt pulling her up to me. I couldn't stop myself but hearing her words eased me and I stopped laying her head back gently while her eyes shut themselves and her body fell into a deep sleep. I waited there and as I relaxed I saw her flash up and heard her gasp. Her eyes turned a darker red then most people I've turned and before I knew it she spoke with an absent voice, "I'm hungry Kenyon." I was confused she shouldn't be this way yet. Only two people I know where like this...the already full growns. This means she was meant to be this way! I was excited like a small child when their mothers by them candy in the stores. 

"I'll be back with something, Okay?" I said jumping from the window I was back before I knew it and held out a warm bag for her to drink from. She sucked it down in a heartbeat and her body filled out and her skin tanned lightly she was back to normal. She sighed in relif and breathed calmly. "Thank you." She said laying her head on my shoulder and holding my hand tightly I flinched because she was stronger than I'd imagined. 

I held her the whole night while she slept. It was everything I wanted. To be with her.
