Malevolent

Part Fourteen

“Freeze!”, the officer said as he raised his pistol toward Liam. He wanted to shoot him, but he couldn’t. He wasn’t allowed to.

Liam was already frozen. He was standing in the shadows. He took a few steps forward and stood in the light.

“I said freeze”, the officer repeated. The second officer was moving slowly toward Liam. Trying so hard not be noticed by him.

Liam’s eyes were as black as ashes. Glowing like black diamonds. His nails were 2 inches tall, maybe longer. He had a devilish look on his face.

What was he planning to do?, everyone thought.

“Drop the weapon and come closer”, the first officer ordered. He was trembling from head to toe. Samantha was hiding behind him. She didn’t know what to do.

The second officer kept taking his steps toward Liam, trying ever harder not to get noticed.

“Are you scared, Sam?”, Liam asked coldly in his deep-terrifying voice. “What are you scared of? I’m your boyfriend”.

“Drop the weapon”, the officer repeated. His finger trembling on the trigger. The officer was hesitated whether to shoot him or not.

“Shut up!”, Liam screamed. His razor-sharp teeth appeared. They could cut anything. They could sink into anything.

Liam noticed the second officer coming toward him, but he didn’t let him know. He acted like he didn’t see him.

“I’m gonna say this for the last time”, the officer threatened. “Drop the weapon”.

“You drop it first”, Liam replied. “Or you’ll regret”.

Suddenly, Liam grabbed the second officer and pulled him toward him.

The first officer fired at Liam. He got his eyes closed.

“LIAM!”, Samantha screamed. She collapsed on the floor not knowing what to do.

Did he die?, the officer asked himself.

Did the bullet hit him?

The first officer opened his eyes and gasped. His eyes widened in terror as he dropped his weapon.

He gasped when he saw his partner standing behind the sofa with a bullet in his head…

The officer didn’t shoot Liam. He shot his partner….

How could this be?, the officer asked himself. Samantha got on her feet with a shocked expression on her face. The second officer dropped on his knees and fell on the ground.

Dead…

The officer felt something moving behind him. He was about to turn around when someone grabbed him by the neck and cracked it…

The officer followed his partner to the ground. Dead…

Samantha stood in her place to see Liam was the one who cracked the officer’s neck. He was the one who switched with the second officer. He was the one who killed both of them.

And it might be her turn now…

“What do you want from me?”, Samantha asked in fear. Every inch in her body was shaking. Every inch.

Liam put his hand on Samantha’s cheek. It was as cold as ice. He started soothing her. “Why are you scared?”, he screamed. The room seemed to shake.

Samantha started crying from fear. She was about to die. Her heart was pounding so hard.

She didn’t answer Liam’s question. Her eyes were closed. Suddenly, she heard her parents calling her name.
