My Sexy Little Monster

Chp.16 No Pain, No Gain

Butch walked towards me. His beautiful features showed a huge amount of fear. That was more than enough evidence I needed to tell that Douglas was telling the truth.

" Why didn't you tell me about them?," I asked.

The pain I felt was just horrid! I had thrown all of my guard down just for him. There was a man at home that I KNEW loved me. That man was at home worrying about whether I was OK....and I betrayed him. Over some asshole that was just playing me!
Butch flinched at my thoughts, " Whoa Angel! Calm down baby girl. What he said is true, but, it is not as horrible as he puts it. Hear me out,please."
My chest was aching so much. I don't think I can just sit back and take in anymore heart ache.My eyes locked with Butch's eyes. They were slowly filling with tears...
If he didn't care for me would he be crying right now? Butch isn't the type to just cry in the open. He nodded as he listened closely to my thoughts. "You know I care," he said desperately as he took a small step towards me. I teleported a foot away from him to distance myself.
His body flinched at my sudden urge to distance myself. I just felt like the closer I was to him, the worse my chest ached. Right now, If he tried to touch me... I would lose my mind. His touch would have prevented me to think clearly. I need a clear head right now.

"I will hear you out. But you better make it count Butch. Because If I don't like what I hear, I WILL leave," I said bitterly.

Douglas jerked his head towards me after I said that. As if it just registered in his head that even though he just gave up one of Butch's secrets, I still wouldn't choose him. Yeah that's right you bitter ole' fool. Just because I may not be with Butch doesn't mean I will come running into your arms. How dumb can Douglas be? There is no way I would fall for him. Ever.

If he took the others that he chose to be his so called mates in the exact same way he took me, then I could understand if they chose to be with another person. Douglas is just a weird heartless vampire that wants a female to control and call his own. That is not me.
Butch nodded and said, " Exactly. Douglas has taken all of the women he liked in the exact same way he took you. And there were a total of three women. You are the fourth."
My body grew still when he said that number. My lungs stopped pumping air. The beating of my heart came to a sudden halt. But I did not flinch. Maybe now that my heart has finally shut up; the pain will stop.

" You are the first woman I have ever said I loved. And you are the only woman I have pursued myself," Butch said as he took another step towards me.

"But you still slept with them," I said weakly.

Fear was written all over his face as he tried to find the right words to tell me," With two of them yes. One girl only sucked me off while I was asleep. Douglas charged in when I was trying to push her off. And with the others...I fucked them in their asses...but they were apart of our group for at least ten to fifteen years before those sexual things happened. And I made sure to leave their virginities intact."
Douglas flinted to Butch and attempted to smack him. Butch intercepted the blow and flinted a few feet away from Douglas. He also made sure not to get too close to me. As if he were afraid I would disappear if he got too close. If that fear of his was real, then he was right. I would leave if he made the wrong move.
He eyes were gentle as he clearly stated," They all went their own ways and found other lovers that took their v-card. When Douglas found out this he was all bent up inside and started dating men for a while."
One of my eyebrows shot up in shock. I never took Douglas as the bisexual type. I wonder if he was the top or the bottom....
Butch rolled his eyes and said," Anyway... that's how he found you. He went to your city to break up with his most recent ex, Peter. Peter was a doctor at the hospital you worked at. Douglas said he saw you one night when you were leaving work."

My mind instantly began to swirl my memories around. I tried to search for Douglas's face. But, I can not recall ever seeing him before the day I was taken. And I never met the doctor Butch mentioned. But now I knew how Douglas picked my hospital out of all the hospitals in my city. The big blurry picture that I have been putting together all this time was becoming clear.
"S-So basically none of the women Douglas chose loved him. They slept with you to spite him and then ran off into the arms of other men. And then he went gay for a while... until he saw me. And now that he has lost yet ANOTHER victim of his. He is going into a psychopathic fit and wants to kill you?", I asked as I slowly tried to fit together all the pieces to this crazy puzzle that I call my life.

Butch smirked weakly and said," Exactly."

" I had chosen those women for ME! You had no right to touch them. No matter if they were around for fifteen or even fifty years. You took my women away! And I forgave you the other times. But this time I WILL get my revenge," Douglas yelled as he pointed an avenging finger at Butch.

Butch gave his trademark scoff and said, " NONE of the women you picked to be your so called 'mates' wanted to be with you. You should have known. If you can't win a woman over after fifteen years, then you are not going to get her. And make sure you say things correctly. They all approached me. I had no interest in the other two like that. I only did it because they begged me to. But I soon regretted doing it with women I didn't even care about."

Then Butch looked at me again," Angel, you have only been here for a short amount of time. But I fell for you hard. I can't change what I did all those years ago. But I can tell you that I am sorry for not telling you sooner. I really am."

Tears rolled down my cheeks as asked again," Why didn't you tell me about them?!"

Butch flinted to me and held me in his arms. He kissed at my wet cheeks and muzzled his face into the side of my neck. Hot tears touched my skin and his body began to shake. When he pulled back, his face was brimming over with tears, " You were already having such a hard time letting me in! You had another man at home waiting for you. I knew that if I had told you, then you would have left me. P-Please dont leave me. Im begging you...please just stay with me."
Like some fools we stood there crying together. Our voices soared into the air together. But then his voice became silent.
I opened my eyes and saw a hand reaching through his chest. Held in the palm of the hand was Butch's heart. Then the hand vanished through the hole leaving a heartless Butch standing before me.
A gut wrenching scream escaped my body as I realized what was happening.
Butch's body slumped in front of my feet. Douglas stood behind Butch with the heart in his hand, " I know this sounds like I am flirting, But I will happily take your heart away Butchy. Even though you aren't my type."

" BUUUUTCHHH," I yelled as I embraced his body. He shook violently and gasped in pain.

Douglas laughed and said," We vampires can live without our organs. But we can still feel agonizing pain without those parts. And it won't stop until that body part is put back into place."

"Give it to me," I hissed between clenched teeth.

Douglas chuckled," Oh? So does that mean you choose him even though he lied to you?" He squeezed the heart, causing Butch to thrash and scream even more.

I teleported behind Douglas grabbed him from behind. My surprise attack caused him to drop the heart.
His strong hands grabbed my arms and he tossed me off him with ease. My body slid across the hard ground. My skin burned from the small abrasions I just suffered from. But I wouldn't give up. Butch needs his heart. If Douglas damaged it any further Butch could be in permanent pain.

As if he now read minds also, Douglas looked at the heart that rested near his left foot. He picked up his foot and tried to stomp down on the heart. But I teleported over again and pushed him with all my strength. He tumbled over but quickly recovered and hurled himself at me again.

Flashes of the first time I tied to kill this man resurfaced in my mind. Thoughts of him wanting to kill my family just so he could have me to himself filled my heart with anger. I have tried to live peacefully with him since the last time I fought him. But, he has given me no other choice.

He lunged for me with all his strength. Instead of dodging I allowed him to pierce through my body. His hand was inside of my stomach.
The pain set fire to my body. Hot blood gushed out of my mouth as I tried to breath. Regret flashed across Douglas's face. He tried to dislodge his hand but I held onto his wrist.  Things began to look blurry and my hearing began to fade.
I could almost hear Butch scream my name. But I couldn't focus on his voice. The only thing I could focus on was the killer that stood in front of me. I had accomplished my goal. He will never hurt me again.
