Vampire King

Chapter 25- The truth

Shae's pov.

"Many people have been reported missing, here's Jane Sweetman to tell us a little bit about it."

"Hello I'm Jane Sweetman. Many family's have reported a member missing, some have been found dead. Their bodies lay on the roads, woods, pathways. What is happening? Is this a repeat of the year 1860 where bodies were completely drained of blood, people reported missing and strange deaths?" Sam walks in and turns off the television.

"Hey I was watching that!" I exclaim, she shrugs.

"Do you think that Tyler and Marcus are staying away because they want to protect us and prevent something?" I roll my eyes.

"Obviously Sam, Tyler practically said that!"

"Do you think.... that they are vampires?" I scoff.

"Of course not! We would know," I whisper.

"I never got to ask you how you and Tyler got so close so easily?" She asks with curiosity, I shrug.

"I guess it was just easy to tell him things that I couldn't tell others, I felt like I could trust him when he was practically a stranger." I mumble.

"But do you trust him now?" She raises an eyebrow, I shrug picking at my nails.

"No," I whisper. I look at her, "do you trust Marcus?" I will never trust him.

"Yeah I do. We had a thing, remember?" She bites her lip.

"I don't even know why you were interested in him, like look at him!" She raises an eyebrow.

"He's actually really attractive," she pipes in.

"Looks can be deceiving!" I point a finger at her.

She clears her throat and looks at the tiled floor, "I felt something Shae."

I study her features, her shoulders are slumped, her head in between her hands.

"I know you did Sammy," I softly whisper.

"It hurts me Shae."

"What does?" I whisper.

"Pretending that everything is fine when it's not," she whispers, "nothing's ever fine."

We stay silent, "I know that."

We both stand and wrap our arms around each other, "I miss him," she says referring to Marcus.

I smile sadly against her shoulder, "I miss Tyler too."

I don't know why I agreed to go to this party, I guess I needed time out. Maybe that's why I agreed.

"WOOHOOO!" We scream. I feel a presence behind me and I spin around looking up at the guy with dark brown hair, brown eyes and dark skin.

He grabs my arm and I frown, he tugs me to the exit and I scream at him to let me go, "GET OFF ME YOU FREAK!"

He growls lowly and pushes me in front of him, I glare at him and move my foot back kicking his shin.

He releases me for a moment, groaning. "You little...." I run towards the crowd and screams when he grabs my leg.

He drags me out of the party, why do I have such bad experiences at parties?

My shoe makes loud noises as I jump around like a crazy person, he keeps a hold of my other leg.

"Let go of me!" I shout.

In a second he's on the ground and so am I, my hands dig into the pebbles from the mucked up road.

"I have Austin, Mason," I hear a familiar voice.

A growl rumbles and echoes around and I slowly look up, I gasp.

"Tyler? Marcus? Other people?" They all look down at me. Tyler nods at Marcus and he walks over to me helping me up, I push away from him.

"Trying to go after my mate, not a smart move. Shouldn't the beta have an alpha by his side?" Tyler asks.

"No because the alpha needs to be safe," the dark skinned guy who grabbed me says.

"Yeah and so does my mate," who's his mate?

"We need her," the guy who took me shrugs.

"Mason if you dare touch her again I will kill you," hypothetically?

He laughs bitterly, "I'm surprised you haven't drained her," I'm so confused. "There's been a lot of rumours going around that your coven has been killing."

Tyler laughs, "we survive off blood so maybe," he shrugs. "Take him," Tyler grumbles.

I look at Tyler, "I want the truth," I place my hands on my hips.

He sighs and stands in front of me, "but you'll only hate me, I don't want that."

"You don't know that Tyler," I firmly say.

"Oh yes I do," he mutters.

"How?" I raise an eyebrow.

"Because you found it before! You hated me!" I laugh, he's gone crazy.

"Tell me, please," I plead.

"Why do you want to know so badly?" He asks.

"Because I care about you!" I exclaim.

"Fine! You want to know? But when you hate me let me say I told you so. IM A VAMPIRE! A blood sucker, I feed on people to survive. I'm a monster and no one can change who I am."

I gasp. I kind of expected it but it's still surprising.

"And the worst part about it all is that I find pleasure in hurting people."
