Evelyn Walker (Book One)

Chapter 12 | Decentralisation

A/N : I wrote a short story for the Love Conversation Contest by Romance on Wattpad. It's called 'In the end'.

I would love it if you read it and let me know what you think! It's my first time doing something like that and I appreciate all the feedback!

Thank you so much! xx

-----------------------------------------

I realised we were walking towards the stables, when I first heard the sound of horses neighing.

'They can feel us.' Felix muttered next to me. I guessed he was willing to talk again, that didn't take long at all.

'Who? Vampires?'

He nodded softly, 'They get nervous when predators come closer.'

'You do realise that you just called yourself a predator, right?'

'Yes I do,' He shrugged as if it was the most normal thing in the world, 'in the end, that is what we are.'

'And what do you call humans then? Animals, just like those horses? Are we all soft little bunnies filled with blood in your eyes?'

'Not in my eyes,' Felix held the door to the stables open for me to enter, 'but for most vampires you are indeed soft little bunnies.'

I was about to ask him more about that when the Prince interrupted our conversation with an annoyed look on his face.

'Evelyn,' He called as he grabbed me by the forearm, 'you will be riding with me.'

Whilst we walked away from Felix, I cought a glimpse of the angry looks both men were sending the other.

'Why did you do that!' I asked angrily, pulling myself from his grip.

'I want you to ride with me,' He growled, 'it is as simple as that.'

'Obviously it isn't that simple!'

'Stop yelling, Evelyn.'

'Stop being so calm, Aiden! You are getting on my nerves!' I started yelling even more at him.

It was the first time he got me this angry, the kind of angry that made me want to hurt him.

In comparison to me, Aiden said nothing. He listened as I yelled at him.

'You damn vampires think you can controle everything! Well, you can't!'

Out of the sudden he pushed me in one of the individual stables. I could feel Felix' eyes burning in the back of my head, but he didn't dare to stop Aiden.

'Now that is where you are wrong, Evelyn.' Aiden pushed me against the wall, making sure I couldn't go anywhere.

'Now you will listen to me,' His eyes were fully grey now, indicating that he was very angry.

Unfortunatly, I seemed to be having an deadwish, as words escaped my mouth.

'No, I will not listen to you,' I pushed my finger against his forehead, 'You may be the leader to this Mansion filled with scary people with big teeth, but I am not scared of you!'

I expected some kind of reaction from him after that, but he just shook his head and laughed.

'What did they teach you about Vampires, girl?' I cringed at the way he called me 'girl'.

'Everything I needed to know,' I snapped at him, 'you treat humans like toys because you envy us. And you envy us, because we are the superior race.'

At that sentences he pushed his body even closer to mine.

'Then they told you lies, Evelyn,' He chuckled softly with his head close to mine, 'do you want to know the truth?'

'Try me.'

'The war wasn't about humans against vampires, or 'good' against 'evil',' He made sure to point out the words good and evil, 'it was about vampires finally standing up for themselves.'

'Do you know how many vampires were killed by humans,' Our eyes connected right at that moment, 'just because humans were scared of something they did not know.'

'You are scared too,' He let go of my body, 'yet, you're too proud to admit it.'

'You will be riding with Felix,' He left me speechless, standing alone in the stable.

Some of the vampires that walked past the stable chuckled, they had all heard the conversation.

Was I scared?

I couldn't be scared. I had a mission to complete. If Aiden knew he would have me killed within seconds.

No, He would kill me within seconds.

I took some deep breaths before leaving the stable to look for Felix.

But before I could do that, a hand grabbed me and pulled me into another stable.

I was about to scream and fight the person who had grabbed me, until I was meeted by the face of Thomas.

'Thomas,' I growled at him, but not loud enough for anyone to hear, 'don't you ever do that again!'

'Shut up or someone will hear us.' He glared at me before looking around.

'What do you want?' If it were another time and context, I wouldn't have been so short on him.

But we didn't have much time, and I knew for sure that two vampire were always watching me.

'I heard your conversation with him,' Great, everybody heard it, 'don't listen to him. He can't mess with your head.'

'I won't, we were trained for this Thomas. Nothing or nobody is going to stop this mission.' He nodded, obviously pleased with my words.

'I have to go now,' I muttered, 'I don't know when I will be back. Stay in contact with the others, ok?'

'That's another thing I wanted to tell you, Evelyn,' I watched him with a confused look on my face, 'you will not be going alone.'

'What do you mean?'

'Alexander, Nadia and myself will come too. We have to, orders from our masters.'

Right at that moment, it felt like my heart sinked to the bottom of my body.

I could feel the blood draining from my body, as a sudden coldness hit my body.

And before I dropped to the ground, the only words I managed to get out were : what?
