Immortal Heart

Chapter Eight

Warning: Torture is involved in this chapter

The girl screams, over and over again. 

My meal last night was quite the surprise, we were having a really good time, I was about to take a bite. Then she takes out a dagger and stabs it near my heart. At first I thought she was some wanna-be vampire slayer, then I noticed the dagger. The dagger is from a vampire coven... my brother's vampire coven. 

She ran, and I called the coven for a hunt. Now we are all gathered in my basement. And when I mean all of us I mean the strongest of us, Harry, Stacy, Rebeca, Danny, Riley, Megan and I. It's interrogation time.

Harry stands against the wall in front of the young fragile human girl, Danny guards the door to make sure no one comes in or out the house.

Danny is a good guy in a way, we found him recently in a ally way. Starving for blood however his guilt was eating at him, boy did we break him. Now he doesn't think twice. He does whatever Megan says, he happens to be attracted to her.

Megan does have a rebel charm to her. She has the long straight waist-length hair, black brown eyes, tanned and curvy. The have some things in common, she likes his tattoos, which he is covered in, and he likes her. She likes his shaggy jaw length hair, he likes her. She likes his gentleman attitude towards her... you can see where this is going. 

However they won't bother making a move, if they do Harry will be on their ass. If they make a move on their feelings and become Immortal Mates then that's a betrayal to the coven. And Harry isn't fond of betrayal.

 Stacy sighs and plays with her knife, "Do you know if Amy is home?"

Rebeca snaps her head back and looks at me with her dark blue eyes with worry, "That's right. If her or Harper hear screaming they'll freak. Especially from your house."

She  paces back and forward, her hands running through her brown curly hair. She's in a rather reveling red dress since she was on the hunt at the clubs. She didn't think about changing. However everyone else is day time clothes or pajamas, meaning Riley and Stacy.

Riley sighs and hops of a rusty table, "Don't worry, She's going into the nearest city to go shopping with Amy to find something to wear for tonight."

Harry looks up and scowls, "A bit early? I mean, I don't even think Ben has made some move Amy."

He chuckles and looks at me, I smirk, "I forgot to mention. I have a new admin assistant,"

I keep the smirk on my face and pick up and knife, I hear Harry laugh, "You cheeky devil."

 He keeps laughing and shakes his head, I can see him in the refection of the knife, "You know you are lucky man, as soon as I saw Amy I... Oh man I just felt like doing very..."

He picking up one of the bag up leather straps for the chair, the look in his eyes make my grip onto the knife tighter. In the reflection of the knife I see the lust and animal in his eyes as he smirks, "I'd do some very naughty, painful... bad things to the pretty blonde gorgeous blood bag."

The anger finally takes over, I don't know what's happening to me. However I'm going to make it useful. I full force stab it into the girl's hand and make it go though the arm of the chair.

She gives of a blood curdling scream as everyone jumps, the anger is still there and it shows in my voice, "Listen darling, I'm tired of stalling so lets get down to business."

I punch her in the stomach so hard that blood comes out her mouth as she cries, I take a chair and sit in front of her. I see Harry laugh, "It's about time."

I roll my eyes and look at the girl, her brown eyes red from crying, her black hair damp from sweat and blood. She looks at me and I can see she's breaking a bit. She's weak.

I twist the skinning knife in my hand, "You know, You know what angers me more than the fact you manipulated me and attacked me in my own home? I'm more pissed about the fact when I came down here after finding your sorry ass I found out that all my torture equipment was gone. However...." I look at the table full of different sorts of knifes, "Good luck that I didn't use the kitchen knife set from Christmas. Would you believe my luck?"

I look at the table and grin, "We have skinning knives, butcher knives, chef knifes... heck we even got three different carving knives."

I pick up a butchers knife and look back at her, " You better talk or your right hand is going bye bye."

I smile and stand up and hold it above her hand, "Three."

She shakes her head, "No. Please?!" She hysterically screams. 

I laugh, "Two."

"OKAY! I'LL TALK!" She shouts. I smile and put the butcher knife down.

I sit back down and grin. The light above us flickers, "I'm listening"

She gasps for breath and looks up at me, her face blank. "I was sent here by Oliver."

I raise my eyebrow. "my brother?"

The rage is quickly coming back, she nods. "He sent me to give you and Riley a message."

Riley walks next to me and leans on the chair, "Wait a minute, so he sent you for a message, but you stabbed him." He says, good point though.

She rolls her eyes, "Duh he was about to eat me."

I nod, "And right now you are looking tasty."

She scowls, "I will tell you the message if you promise not to eat me."

She's an idiot, however I nod and smile, "I promise I will not eat you."

She nods and sighs, "He said don't fight it brothers."

Okay lets clear the whole 'brothers' bit. Riley is not related to Oliver and I, however he was our friend even as humans. We were like brothers even as vampires until Oliver found his mate and left our coven to join a coven for Immortal mates to protect him and his wife. Pathetic.

I lean forward, "Don't fight what?"

She shrugs, "I don't know, he also said to call whenever you have stopped fighting it."

I sigh and stand up, "Well that makes things clear as daylight now." I say sarcastically and walk towards the the door to my other room in the basement. "You can have her now."

"Wait you promised!" She screams, I laugh and don't turn back. "I promised I wouldn't eat you. Never said anything about the others."

I go into the other room and shut the door. In the other room is two beds, in case situations like these when I can't go upstairs because of the sunlight. Plus it has another door which leads to a cave which links every vampire house in the area. Also for situations like this.

I sigh and fall back on the bed,

I hear the girl scream as her skin tears apart. Too bad I'm missing out.

"What did she mean by 'fighting it'?"

The familiar voice of Megan, she sits on the opposite bed with her arms crossed. Judging me slightly. I shrug, "No idea."

She laughs, " You are Riley are acting different.  I don't know what it is. Riley has been distant and not as flirty, and you are angry. You scared me back there."

She strokes a hair out of my face and smiles, "I can't tell you to tell me everything. But remember who you trust here... right?"

I nod and smile, "Right."

She nods and heads for the door, Sweet dreams."
