Don't Runaway [Book 2]

Chapter 11

To my surprise he didn't wait to accept. This man truly believe me and the funny thing is... I trust him too. Victor took no time to wait. He took my hand and started to pull me up the stairs that had gone to Fathers Able's office. Once we were in the office we saw Father Able standing in front of the only doorway in the room; except for the one going to my room.

Something was off and it was making feel uneasy, "Father?" I took a few steps forward and Victor grabbed my shoulder to stop. I glanced at him before looking back at Father Able. "Father?"

"Get back Mary." Victor hissed at me.

"What's going on?" Father Able tilted his head back to look at us. His lips were covered in blood as he gave me one of his gently smiles saying everything will be okay. But it wasn't. Father Able fell on the ground making me gasp. I took a couple steps before Victor stood in front of me. "Move! Victor!" I screamed.

"Yes Victor move." A female walked into the room stepping over Father Able's body. It was Sister Ashly, but why?

"Sister Ashly, what is the meaning of this!" I yelled.

"It's been a long time, brother." She completely ignored me. What did she say? Brother? I looked up a Victor and he had a look that could kill.

"Melantha." Victor said her name like it was the worst thing he had tasted. Looks like I wasn't the only one hiding my identity.

Melantha touched her red hair. "You like it, I dyed it." She laugh. "Oh I shouldn't be saying this." She shook her head from side to side. "Alright Victor. Give me the girl." She smiled.

"Wait!" I yelled putting my hands up. "Can we talk about this later? I mean I would love to spend time with you but Victor and I are a little into something right know." I said wrapping my arm around his right arm and rubbing his stomach with my free hand. "If you know what I mean." I smiled nervously.

"Now," she said as she pointed a finger at me. "That reminds me of someone. Now who was that?" She tilted her head in air looking at the ceiling. "Oh that's right, Dawn. How is she by the way? Craven and I are looking forward to seeing her again." Dawn?

"Leave Melantha." Victor growled.

"Oh I can't do that. I've came for the girl." Within a blink of an eye she appeared in front of Victor with her fingers around his neck. "Your weak brother. When's the last time you hunted?" her laugh made me cringe. Once she was satisfied chocking him she throw him to the side like a rag doll.

"Oh shit," I whispered turning back to the stairs to my room. Her echo followed me down the stairs as I felt my heart beat a million miles an hours. God Dawn what did you get ourselves into? Reaching to the door I shut it and locked it as I panicked in the room.

Okay, crazy lady outside. I can go through the back door but what if he's there? I can't let Crevan get me. Throwing my hands over my head I groaned. What happened to tomorrow night?! I yelled to myself. "Shit," I whispered again running to the back door.

Pushing the door open, I was running into the courtyard behind the church. "Well, well, look what I found." I heard Sister... I mean Melantha said. She was standing next to the doorway just a few steps away. "I waited a long time Edea." She said tilting her head side to side. "And frankly I don't feel like playing anymore."

"What do you want?"

"So over used." She sighed.

"I didn't do anything to you. He'll I don't know you. Well I do but,"

"Shut up!" she yelled. There! Right there, every waking moment I see her in you and it pisses me off. I will have what is mine and so will Crevan. Make no mistakes Edea because one wrong move and... I. Will. Kill. You." She said almost singing the last four words followed by a laugh. Dawn really? What did you do?

"Loom whatever Dawn did there was a good reason. I mean..."

Melantha interrupted me again, "That bitch took my man! My husband to be!" she yelled once more coming my way.

"Okay, okay." Putting my hands up, I took a couple steps back.

"It not okay! Because of her I lost everything! And know she will too."

"Oh Shit!" turning away I ran. Yes I ran like shit. And no lie I fell and lost my one shoe. With my heart beating at a pace so unfamiliar to me it scared me. Most times I get excited but this time I'm going to really die. Damn it, Dawn if I live through this I'm killing you! 

Melantha's laughter filled my ears. Looking back she was just walking. She's playing with me. She's the type of killer who loves to play with her prey. She loves fear, and panic. She's a girl with a broken heart.

Getting to my feet, I found out quickly that I sprained my ankle. Wobbling to the side of the church as I tried to take my other shoe off. Looking behind me again, she just came around the corner with a smile on her face. Getting a good grip on my shoe I throw it at her as I yell, "Go away! I'm not Edea!" I lied.

"Come now. I just want to play."

"I don't want to play!" Where are all the people? I was a few steps away to being in public view. With a small smile I heard footsteps. "Help!" I yelled "God some help me!" I continued finial in public view.

"Freeze!" Maybe the public view was not the best idea. Officer Miller had her gun out and aiming for me.

Putting my hands up, "Wait you got the wrong person. She's ov..." over to my side, Melantha was gone. "Fuck me."

I got on my knees as Officer Miller grabbed her handcuffs. "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to be speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense." Never in my 24 years did I think I would be arrested. How disappointing.

Hey guys. So I need a little help but let me just say first. I have made a few covers for The side stories and have already started writing. I'll put them up now so you guys can put them in your library. I will have a few chapter up around Christmas as a percent. Also about three book the plot will be different. Its a new story with a new relationship.

(Thanks to those that came up with baby names for Dawn's twins. I have choice in the names. And there are two people who I will dedicate a chapter too once the names are announced. Thank you again)
