Follow Me Down to Hell (Book 1)

Chapter 1: Her Own Personal Brand of Suffering

Tsukiko looked at all the boys uneasily. Who was she going to pick? Why would she pick any of them in the first place? She was only introduced to them all a few minutes ago, how could she choose one boy from the many she just met? Her eyes darted from one boy to the next and they all glanced at her, their different colored eyes piercing her. She bit her lip and looked down uneasily. If she didn't pick soon, they were bound to pick for her and it would be a person she didn't exactly care for.

When Tsukiko looked up, she saw Laito looking right at her. She swallowed nervously and closed her eyes, breathing deeply. She had no choice in the matter, if she went back home now, her mother would think of her as a coward. Tsukiko looked up and opened her eyes slowly. She swallowed, to clear her throat so she wouldn't hesitate when she spoke.

"I-I choose..." She began slowly. "Laito..."

Laito's grin widened and he stepped toward Tsukiko who immediately looked down, unsure of her decision. Ayato and Kanato stepped forward as well. They stood by their brother and whispered various things in his ear. Tsukiko looked at her feet, shuffling them slightly. Why had she come to this mansion if she knew this was what she was going to get into? She looked up when she heard her name be mentioned during the conversation.

"You have to share her Laito." Ayato murmured in Laito's ear.

"It would be selfish of you to keep her to yourself." Kanato murmured.

"Sorry Ayato-kun, Kanato-kun. Tsuki-chan is all mine~" Laito replied and stood in front of Tsukiko.

Ayato and Kanato cast a couple of glares Laito and Tsukiko's way, which Reiji happened to notice and gave them both a cold look. They both backed off and stood with the others. Tsukiko looked at the other boys, but happened to notice that Subaru had left. When she least expected it, Laito snaked his arm around her waist and pulled her close. Tsukiko blushed a dark red and looked at him, her eyes widening little by little.

"Laito, be a gentleman and show her to her room." Reiji ordered.

"Of course, it is the polite thing to do." Laito replied with a smirk. "Come now Tsuki-chan~"

Tsukiko walked by Laito as he led her up to her bedroom. She couldn't help but feel uncomfortable from how close they were. Tsukiko slowly walked inside after Laito opened up the door. The sight before her was astounding. The bed was a four poster with dark purple veil curtains with a dark purple comforter. Tsukiko took a couple steps forward and stood near the bed, running her fingers over the comforter. She closed her eyes as it felt like satin under her fingertips. Her eyes opened slowly, noticing a shadow cascade behind her. When she turned, she fell back on the bed in shock, seeing Laito standing right behind her.

Laito smirked and crawled over her, pinning her wrists above her head on the bed. Tsukiko tried to break free, however, Laito was too strong for her. He moved her hair away from her neck and leaned down, taking in her scent. He breathed in deeply and pulled away, his green eyes glinting mischievously.

"You smell very nice Tsuki-chan~" He commented.

Tsukiko looked away blushing, "U-Um... could you please... get off?"

Laito grinned, "Do you not like being in this position Tsuki-chan~?"

Tsukiko barely had any time to answer when Laito bent down again, licking the sensitive area of her neck tantalizingly slow, making her squirm even more. He grinned and a deep growl resonated in his throat. He bit down on the ivory skin of her neck hard, but didn't break the skin as he sucked on her neck, leaving a dark red mark in its place after he pulled away. Tsukiko, closed her eyes tightly her face turning an even darker red.

Tsukiko didn't open her eyes, "What did you do?"

"I marked you~" Laito answered.

Tsukiko's eyes opened slowly, "Marked me?"

Laito bent down so his lips were close to her ear, "So the others know you are only mine~" He whispered seductively.

Tsukiko looked at Laito as he released her wrists and got off the bed; his fangs were showing when he smiled while he looked down at her.

"Ah~ A disheveled form is so tempting~" He commented. "But I've had my fun for today~"

Tsukiko sat up a little as Laito walked to the door, her hair falling over her shoulder. She watched as he turned the doorknob, but he turned back and looked at her slowly.

"We'll have more fun tomorrow~" He told her with a smirk and closed the door behind him.

Tsukiko, laid back on the bed and curled up into a tight ball, shaking like a leaf. She was frightened, being in a mansion with six bloodthirsty vampires scared her to death and she chose one who was more perverted and sadistic than any of them...

What on earth has she gotten herself into?
