Thou Shall Not Fall

Chapter 29

Harry's P.O.V.

I didn't know what was happening to me...

I fell to the ground and as soon as I hit the cobblestone everything went completely numb. It took all the strength I had left to roll onto my stomach and crawl to where Samantha was standing; she was as stiff as a statue. I could hear her heart beating, pounding against her chest. She was absolutely terrified.

"Thump,thump,thump,thump,thump,thump."

I tried so hard to pull myself up but I just stayed there on the ground. My whole body was stiff and I could no longer keep me head up or simply move my fingers. I couldn't see them anymore, but I heard the man’s words when he spoke. 

"...My names Vlad, but please, call me Viktor." His accent was so thick, I couldn't even pinpoint where it was from. There was a hint of French, some Russian, and Italian. The Vampire had been alive so long he's probably lived in every continent. I heard Samantha's heartbeat go even faster. I wanted so badly to get up off the cold cobblestone ground and to shield her from the monster, but I couldn't...

It was Gemma all over again.

I heard a small whimper escape Samantha's lips. "P-please..." He shushed her.

"Sweet child, I am not here to bring you harm, I just need you to go with me."

Fear struck down to my very core and I did my best to will my body to move. It was useless. Instead, I strained myself to speak. "S-sam...n-no!" I choked.

I didn't think it was possible but her heart began to beat even faster. It was so loud I thought the sound would burst my ear drums. "What did you do to him?" She yelled.

I heard Vlad, or as he liked to be called, Viktor, scoff. "Your lover will be fine. If he were human the werewolf venom most likely would've killed him. But, God is good, and he is like me, he's just paralyzed."

I heard a loud smack and nothing but silence followed. I knew at once she hit him.

That's my girl...

A deep growl grumbled from Viktor's chest. I heard Samantha let out a cry but suddenly she was silent, and then her heartbeat started to slow. "You will come with me Samantha," Viktor said calmly.

When she spoke, her voice was emotionless. "Okay." Her heartbeat was at a normal pace, and that's when I knew he was glamouring her. They began to walk but stopped. "H-harry?" She whispered.

Viktor let out a loud chuckle. "Oh, he isn't going anywhere," He mocked.

There was a loud "whooshing" sound, and then after that I could no longer hear Sam's heartbeat. He took her from me...she was gone...

My life mate was gone...

Samantha's P.O.V.

I rolled over in bed and reached out for Harry. I opened my eyes when I felt nothing but empty space. I looked around the room and realized I was not in our hotel room. I shot up in bed and took a look at my surroundings. It was probably the largest bedroom I've ever been in, the bed could probably hold six people and the sheets were black silk. I stood up and realized I was still in my clothes from the night before. I looked down at the plush white rug. Everything in the room was white and black, and what wasn't white and black, was red. Blood red.

I walked across the room to the window; I pulled back the curtains and stood astonished at the view. The huge glass window overlooked the whole city. I looked around the room, confused to how I got here. I ran over to my purse and dug out my phone. I had over seventy eight messages and they were all from Harry...
