Evie made the slippery trek back to the cave, stopping every now and then the mop the rain out of her eyes. It was still coming down and she wondered how long it would last. She jumped when she saw the exact same blue bird tearing through the brush like something was after it but Evie could see her cat running ahead of it and knew that wasn't what was scaring the little bird so what was it? She finally made it to the cave, walking inside and shaking the rain out of her hair. When she looked up Marilyn was standing in front of her. "I got the medicine and my mom told me everything tha-"
"You didn't bring anyone back?" He cut her off.
"No I... I didn't think you needed fresh blood you still have that woman and-" His hands shot around her throat making her cry out. "I'm sorry-" He pushed her against the wall, the rock cutting into her back and squeezed her throat tighter. "I'm sorry I'll go back and-" she couldn't finish as he squeezed tighter.
"I can't trust you. I can't trust anyone." He growled.
"You can. Just let me show you." Evie whispered. His grip loosened a little and Evie gently pulled his hands away from her neck and leaned forward letting her lips meet his. They were so soft and warm and Evie felt chills spread across her body as his hands moved down to her waist. She gently laid a hand on his cheek pulling his face closer. She opened her eyes for a second and her breath caught when she saw a cop standing aiming his gun, eyes wide. But he wasn't aiming at them. Evie saw Marilyn's friend cowering in the corner staring right at her, eyes moving from her to the cop. She tried to pull away from Marilyn and warn him but he just took it as a sign of rejection and wrenched her hips towards his. "NO!" Evie screamed as the cop shot several rounds and Marilyn's friend.
Marilyn lunged across the cave, pouncing on the cop like a hungry wolf. He punched the cop in the face making him fall to the floor. Evie could hear the sickening crunch of the mans skull being smashed as she made her way to Marilyn's friend who was crumpled on the ground. "No no no!" She gasped, seeing the puddle of blood spreading beneath him. The thudding of fists against skin continued as Evie searched for gunshot wounds. His friend whimpered and reached for Evie. "It's gonna be okay honey I promise." Evie sobbed. She saw three bullet holes in his stomach and knew he was gonna die. "Please no, come on look at me!" She cried.
Marilyn grabbed her shirt and threw her onto the ground behind him as he bent over his friend to see what happened. Evie watched, tears pouring down her face before moving towards the cop. He was either dead or pretty close to being dead. His face was beyond recognition. Evie felt for a pulse and felt a very faint one. She wished he was dead for what he'd done. "EVIE!" Marilyn practically screamed making Evie jump up, heart throbbing in her chest.
"Yes..."
"WHAT THE HELL HAVE YOU DONE?" Oh no he thinks I did this, she thought frantically.
"Marilyn please listen to me. I didn't bring him here I promise!" She said breaking into sobs.
"Promises mean nothing. NOTHING! Get over here NOW!" She slowly walked up to him. "Check for exit wounds and hold pressure on these." He said surprisingly calm. She saw where all three bullets had exited out of his friends back.
"All three went through." She whispered feeling sick.
"Hold pressure on them damn it!" He said sounding desperate. Evie had never seen him so upset and it made her cry even more. She held pressure on them cringing when his friend cried out.
"I know it hurts baby but it'll be over soon." She sobbed trying to comfort him.
"It's never gonna be over. Not anymore." Marilyn growled at her. Blood ran through the cloth Evie used and ran down her hand. She started to get light headed and everything started going black. "Evie? EVIE! PAY ATTENTION!" Suddenly she felt Marilyn haul off and hit her on the cheek as hard as he could. She accidentally bit onto her tongue and tasted blood but everything was normal again. "Don't you pass out on me bitch you caused this." He yelled.
"I didn't-"
"SHUT UP!" He screamed. She let the fresh wave of tears come pouring out as she focused on getting the bleeding stopped. His friend must have passed out because he no longer whimpered when Evie moved her hand. She prayed to God that he wasn't dead. Finally after an hour the blood clotted and Evie gave Marilyn the bandages she'd gotten and let Marilyn wrap them around his friends stomach. "He's gonna die." He whispered.
"No maybe not." Evie said trying to be positive for him.
"I'd love to do to you just what I did to him." He said referring to the cop. Evie shuddered and hugged herself trying to stay warm. Rain was still beating down outside. The sky was crying for this whole mess. Evie started crying again too when she saw Marilyn walk back to his friend and kneel down, laying his hand on his forehead. Evie wanted so badly to tell him it truly wasn't her that brought the cop there but that would just have to wait. As the day went on Marilyn never budged from his friends side and Evie never budged from the fur bed. "Evie..." Marilyn said, voice rough from not speaking all day.
"Yeah?" She said quietly.
"I want you to cut that mans throat and bring me some of his blood." He said. Evie felt nauseous she didn't think she could do it.
"I... I don't... Okay." She forced the word out. Walking over to the cop she found that he was still unconscious which would make her job a little easier. Marilyn tossed a knife to her which clattered to the floor beside her. She picked it up tentatively and looked back and forth between it and the man. Come on Evie you got this, she said over and over. She had a cup ready and laid the knife on the mans throat. She was gonna pass out she just knew it. Slowly she slid the blade down and gasped as the blood gushed out. It was warm as it cascaded over her hands and she felt bile rise in her throat. God forgive me for this, she thought as her sight began to waver.
The cup filled and spilled over. As blood kept flowing. How much is there? Evie thought before vomiting on the cave floor beside her. Her stomach clenched and she almost got sick again as she staggered to Marilyn's side with the cup. "What a good girl." He said taking it and drinking it all in a few gulps. The room started to sway before her eyes and suddenly everything went black.

Thanks for reading! I just wanted to say I got some comments asking where the porn was so I have to say this book is definitely not meant to be porn. It's just something I made up and yes there are some smutty scenes coming eventually but the whole book as a whole is not about that so if you're reading it for that then it's not the book for you. Anyways thanks for voting and reading and the next chapter should be up tomorrow!
