Chapter 4            Prove it

     Ezra walks to the door and says " Rodrick, Harland can you please come here for a moment?"

     Oh great, more crazies in the room, this should be interesting.  Two guys enter the room faster than I thought was possible.  One is tall and lanky, but you can tell he is well muscled, with long blond hair and grey eyes, like the sky on a stormy day.  The other is slightly shorter, but still tall and very well built, he has black hair that is shaggy and hangs in his eyes, eyes that are the brightest blue I have ever seen.  These men are hot.  Ezra lets a growl out while looking exhasperated at me.  I give him a look like 'what???' and say "ok, lets get on with the freak show."

     The well built shorter guys walks over to me, puts out his hand as if to shake mine, and says" Hi!  I'm Rodrick.  You and I are going to get along great!  It will be nice to spend some time with someone who isn't so grumpy or gloomy all the time!"  Wow, these guys are crazier than I thought, and I realize that the need to get out of here quickly is apparent.  I don't have time for this, and whatever their plans for me are, I am not going along with them.  I have a life, a family at home, and a job that I need to get to.  "Well, come on, Prove to me that your vampires so I can laugh and then leave and get on with my life."

     Luther, who is standing on the other side of the room is suddenly standing inches away from me, I never saw him move.  I take a step back, slightly frightened.  "What's the matter princess?  Did I scare you?"  he hissed as he grimaces at me and shows me his fangs. Wait...Fangs?  My eyes must be playing tricks on me.  Ezra approaches me carefully, like he doesn't want to frighten me any more than they already have, but with anger radiating from him and before I know it he has slammed Luther thru the wall into the hallway leaving a man sized hole. "I thought I made myself clear earlier, Luther. You will not hurt her!"  "I wasn't going to hurt her, just trying to show her what I am." he says. 

     "I heard your thoughts Luther, and I will not allow you to drink from my mate.  EVER!  I don't care if you think that will prove it to her." growled Ezra.

     Rodrick comes to my side "We really are vampires.  Please believe us before these two kill eachother.  Besides, Harland over there will be the one who would have to help me clean the mess up and we really don't want to have to do that, do we Harland?"  Rodrick gives me a wink.  

     The tall lanky blonde Harland says" What would you like us to do to prove it to you?  I am growing bored with all of this and just want to get on with my day.  So please, Scarlett, tell us, what will make you believe?"  

     "Well, I guess if you really were vampires then you would be bloodsuckers, right?"  Luther glares at me, "so I guess one of you has to drink some blood.  You have already shown me you are stong and fast, but anyone can do that, so yeah, I want to see you drink blood." I shiver slightly at the thought of someone drinking blood, it makes my stomach turn.  And if I am telling the truth I have never seen anyone move as quickly as they have, and have never met someone with the strength to throw someone clear thru a wall!

     "First of all, not anyone can be as fast and as strong as we are.  And if you want to see us drink some blood, I'm sure Lover Boy Ezra over there would be happy to take another sip of you."  Harlan laughs darkly.

     "Ok, nobody is going to be drinking my blood, even if you think it will prove you are vampires, find some other blood to drink!"  

     Ezra touches my cheek lightly, and I cringe away even though something inside me enjoys the touch.  "If you let me show you that we do in fact drink blood by letting me drink from you I promise it will not hurt, it will actually feel like nothing you have ever felt."  He looks at me softly, pleadingly.  "I would never hurt you" he whispers.  There is something in my body that wants to let him while my brain is screaming NO!  How does he do that I thought?  Make me feel like I can trust him, like I want him to touch me, kiss me, bite me?  I laugh nervously, only wanting to be done with this craziness and go home.  

     "I know your scared, and want to go home, but I also know you want me." he says while holding my gaze.  "How do you know that?"  I ask with narrowed eyes.

     "Because you are my soul mate, so I can read your thoughts, and feel your bodies reaction to me" he says with a small smile.

     Ok, this just keeps getting weirder by the moment. Ezra puts his hand on my waist and pulls me to him, while our gazes locked.  I feel my pulse beating erratically and a flutter in my stomach, my body will not pull away, nor will my eyes even though my mind is screaming at me.  His lips gently brush mine and I shiver.  "Please Scarlett, just follow what your body is telling you to do."  He brings his lips back to mine and kisses me like I have never been kissed.  My knees buckle as he crushes my body to his. My mind is swimming, and my body is screaming for more. I pull away to get a breath and he continues to kiss my jaw and down my neck, sending tingling sparks across my skin.  "please" I whimper. "You smell so good, I'm sorry my love, I have to do this to make you see."  I start to scream as I feel a sharp pain but it quickly gets lost on a moan as the euphoria takes over my senses.  I can feel the blood leaving my veins as he sucks it into his mouth, and it is a feeling like nothing I have ever felt, I am lost in him, his touch.  I feel him retract from my vein, licking my skin, trailing small kisses on my neck.  My head is in a fog.  He pulls away steadying me as he does.

     I start to sob "Ok, I believe you, you are vampires.  I don't know how this is happening, but please just let me go home."

     " I'm sorry il mia amante bella, I cannot. For without you I will die. Please don't make this harder than it has to be"
