Crimson Love

Chapter Eleven

Unknown POV

Again, I watched as he brought Elizabeth home. This time she was sound asleep, and he was carrying her in his arms, bridal style.

She should be in my arms! Not his, not this filthy man who calls himself human.

I still had no idea whether she knew Xander was a vampire or not. I was guessing she didn't because Xander seemed smarter than that, but who am I kidding, he probably told her the first day he saw her, claiming it was true love.

I growled inwardly, as he kissed her forehead, before leaving her to sleep. Once he was out of sight, I jumped up onto her roof and through her window. I didn't need to be invited in now because I already had long ago, well more like one year ago.

Standing in the corner of her room, I smiled watching her chest rise and fall. She looked so luscious in the moonlight, and I wanted her to be mine.

I walked over, and stroked through her soft hair. She began to stir at my touch, so I left through the still open window and disappeared into the starry night.

Ellie's POV

I woke up in my bed, almost surprised. Xander was quite the gentlemen. Last nights events ran through my mind, as I remembered falling asleep on Xander's shoulder.

Looking down, I noticed he had taken off my jacket and shoes, but I was still in my jeans, which were kind of uncomfortable. Time to change into pajamas.

I began to shiver as I realized the window was open. I can't believe he left the window open again.

"Xander, why did you leave the window open?" I asked, not really expecting an answer.

"I didn't leave the window open!" He said coming in through the window, that of course, was still open.

All of a sudden his nostrils flared, and his body tensed. His eyes flashed red for a moment before they returned to their usual blue.

"Hey, are you ok?" I asked him putting my hand on his shoulder.

He muttered something, but I couldn't hear what he said. He went to the corner of my room, then my bed, then the window again. He jumped out and ran off.

"What the heck are you doing?" Is he tracking something?

"Not something but someone," He said, as he began pacing pack and forth.

"Wait, did you just read my thoughts again?" I asked glaring at him softly.

"Yeah. . . uh. . . sorry," he muttered, as if he wasn't even on the same planet as I was.

He continued pacing around my bedroom, his hand on his chin. He really was lost in thought.

"Hey, earth to Xander!" He looked up at me, and mumbled something.

"What do you keep mumbling about?!" I asked, as I grabbed his hands causing him to stop pacing.

He looked me straight in the eyes, and I could tell he was extremely worried. I'd never seen that look on him before. I'd never seen the look of fear in his eyes. He was usually so relaxed and laid back.

"Xander your eyes there um.." I tried to change the subject, if there even was one in the first place.

"Yeah, I know, I know! Listen, I think. . . Well I think someone's stalking you," He said slowly as if careful to choose his words.

"I thought you were the one stalking me before?" I asked him, now nervous.

"Well no, there is someone else watching you. They were in your room Ellie!"
