Bitten and Changed

Chapter 6

Liara

Mom was peeking out of the window beside the front door.

"Mom? Who's at the door?"

Mom jumped and turned around to look at me. She was acting weird, not like her normal self. Had something happened when I was asleep between her and Bentley. I turned around to see Bentley looking at mom with a curious look. He then looked at me and shrugged his shoulders.

Looking back to mom she only shook her head and laughed to herself.

"It's no one honey. I thought I heard someone at the door. I've still got to add the chicken to the soup. It'll be done in a second." Mom spoke quickly, then as she was about in the kitchen she turned around.

"Why don't you go take a shower and then maybe go sit outside for a little bit. Some fresh air may do you some good."

"Uh. Okay. I'll uh, just go do that." I was kind of curious as of why mom was so out her normal character.

Looking back at Bentley he was smirking as I lifted an eyebrow at him. Climbing back up the stairs and standing beside him. I poked him in the forehead and smiled deviously.

"You can't come in the shower with me. Sorry."

"But you can sit beside the chair outside the door. If you want to talk to me." I smiled and batted my eyelashes.

Bentley playfully glared at me then swooped me up in his arms bridal style and carried me back up the stairs. Setting me down in front of the door Bentley took each of his hands then placed them on each side of my face.

"It'll be too tempting to sit right here and know that you're so close in the shower, naked." "I'll be down stairs when you get out."

"Okay." Disappointment were there. I understood what he meant. But I kind of wanted to talk to him to get to know him more. Maybe it was a little weird I asked that when we barely knew each other.

"Yup. I'm officially stupid. Why did I even ask that?" I was talking to myself as I started the water for the shower. Turning around to close the door Bentley was standing there.

"You're not stupid. We can get to know each other better soon enough. But I wanted to know something right fast." He came in the bathroom with me and shut the door behind him.

"What's that?" Asking him while he stalked closer. My heart beat was hammering in my chest, like a jack hammer. I didn't know why, but it seemed his gaze was piercing in to my soul. I backed up to the sink and ended sitting on it. Bentley was in front of my legs that I held together. Looking down he spread them gently apart and came closer. My nightgown was up to my thighs now and I gulped.

"What is your favorite color?" His voice was strangely alluring at this point. His fingers were clutching my nightgown and digging into my skin. Bentley's eyes switched to their golden color. Feeling his way up my sides I shuddered, this new feeling growing inside my chest was giving me flutters in my stomach. His hands were rubbing my skin gently and it made me make a sound I've never done in my entire life. Bentley smirked but his hands found their way to my own and threaded our fingers together.

"Are you going to answer my question?" He purred. Weakly I told him lime green. He brought his face near mine and looked at my lips. Bentley's face then moved down to my neck. He lightly placed his lips upon my neck and I closed my eyes.

"Why are you making me feel this way? I've seen you in my dreams before, Liara."

"I don't know. This is all new for me." Weakly answering him.

Snapping my eyes open Bentley had removed himself from me and I was instantly missing his warmth. It dawned on me that Bentley told me I was in his dreams. He had been in mine as well. I shook my head then heard mom call out to Bentley.

"Your mom is kind of freaking me out a little bit downstairs."

"Oh and thank you for telling me." Bentley smiled then walked out of the bathroom leaving me in a daze. Shutting the door again then locking it this time. I undressed and hopped in the shower. The heat from the water cleared the fog in my head. The daze he put me in was mesmerizing to me. In under a minute a spell was between us. The look in his eyes was lustful and it was like I could taste it. With every breath I took I was going to keep this in my memory.

Washing up, I kept replaying what happened with Bentley and me. The way his hands ran up my sides and the way his gaze pierced my soul again. My body was buzzing with new feelings. It was my second day here and my body was reacting in new ways.

Matter of fact I thought I could hear my own heartbeat humming. I didn't feel dizzy or weird, like I was going to have a heart attack. I felt like I was more alive than I ever had been. Something felt different inside of me, I couldn't put my finger on it.

Getting out of the shower and going in my room to get dressed I found Kevin in my room once again. He was sitting on my bed looking at the red vial I had taken earlier this morning.

"What the hell?" I shouted, then marched over and snatched the vial away. Bentley was the first one in my room looking between Kevin and I.

"Why are you in my room again for?" "I need to get dressed now get out both of you!"

"What's all the yelling about?" Mom came in my room not too long afterward.

Hiding the vial behind my back Bentley came up behind me and took it. "I need to go home anyway but I'll be back later, if that's alright?" Bentley asked my mom.

"Sure. Sure." Mom replied then looked between Kevin and I. Then looked back at Bentley who was heading for the door.

"Wait how are you getting home?" Mom asked.

"Oh, um my brother will be here in a minute to pick me up." Bentley replied.

"You sure you don't need us to take you home?"

"No. No. Matter of fact he just pulled in." Bentley smiled. Going over to my window, I didn't hear Brantley's blue pickup truck pull up to the house. He was right Brantley was here and getting out of his truck. Looking around the house he suddenly looked up at me. Smiling at me then waved. I waved back and smiled timidly.

Peering back over at Bentley I noticed him scowl but it disappeared quickly as it came on his face. I heard him sigh and disappeared down stairs. Making everyone get out of my room, before giving mom my 'give that butt a talk about being in my room again look'. Mom nodded her head and soon after I heard her bedroom door shut. Getting dressed and drying my hair.
