Blood Legacy (Rewritten)

9. Living nightmares

I took one last sip from my glass, the movie still playing in the background as I sat up straighter in my comfy chair and looked over the couch, noticing my sister and Kayla had already fallen asleep, lying sprawled one over the other as they loudly snored and with their mouths open.

I quietly giggled and rose myself from my seat, stretching out my cramped up muscles and bones before leaning over the table and took Dre's phone, taking a picture of them sleeping like that.

My lips escaped a stifled laugh as I set it as wallpaper on her phone before placing it back on the table, giving them one last glance.
And with a tired yawn, I turned off the TV and went upstairs to my room as I was already feeling sleepy as hell.

My eyes watered as I let out another big yawn, barely seeing my door as I swung it open and stepped into the darkened room.

I mildly shivered as for some reason it felt a little bit colder, my body just yearning to nestle under my puffy covers and warm up as I drifted off to dreamland.

Unfortunately, that didn't happen as before I could even take a step in my bed's direction a big and incredibly warm hand suddenly wrapped over my mouth, my heart jumping as another wrapped itself around my stomach, effectively pressing the back of my body against another, much firmer and warmer one.

"Don't make a sound or you'll be sorry," That unmistakable deep voice softly said in my ear, my pulse spiking as I immediately recognized it.

Nathan.

I quickly started to struggle in his hold as I couldn't help but let that terrible fear take control of me, wildly kicking and squirming until I was suddenly free, harshly panting as I widely stared at the outline of his large body.

"W-what are you doing here? How did you get in?"

He remained quiet and stepped closer instead, my own feet taking me backwards until I was met with the feel of a wall pressing against my back as my bathroom light flickered on, casting a soft light over his frame as well as the bathroom door was already open.

"S-stay back," I warned, my body already trembling as I looked at his deceivingly handsome face, just noticing that tiny smirk tugging at the corner of his soft pink lips.

"I'll scream," My heart pounded into my chest as I watched him slowly approach into a rather predatorial way.

"You can try," His head tilted to the side, those emerald eyes trailing over my body once before settling on my face again.

"Please, just...leave me alone! What do you want from me?" My voice trembled as he stopped right in front of me, tears starting to pool in my eyes as I couldn't help but feel so vulnerable with him so close to me.

Why was he doing this?

"Please..." I hiccuped, my breath stopping inside my chest as his body softly pressed against my own, allowing me to feel his discreet perfume and that burning heat seeping through his every pore.

My gaze hesitantly rose to meet his, for some reason feeling my heartbeat decreasing, my entire being slowly falling into a peaceful trance as his arm snuck around my waist, pulling me even closer against him while his other hand rose to move my hair away, baring my shoulder to him.

I let out a small whimper, my hands tightly clutching against the lapels of his leather jacket as he leaned closer and closer, feeling the delicate touch of his hot breath as his nose skimmed against the side of my neck.

"Wah..." I almost moaned, a wave of liquid heat suddenly pooling in my lower abdomen as he straightened back up to look at me, only to notice that his eyes were now black again.
