My Normal Love Bite

Chapter 8

Veronika -->

Recap:

"What the hell is wrong with me? Why does my throat burn? Why do I look like this?" I growled, ripping my limb from his grasp. He smirked as his eyes traveled up my body.

"My dear, you're a vampire, like me, now," he grinned, showing fangs.

Chapter 8

I stared at him.

"Do you think I'm a fucking moron?" I growled, my hands curling into fists.

"Do you think I'm lying?" He shot back. I looked away.

"I don't know what to believe," I whispered.

"Veronika...," he tone softened. I took that chance. I lifted my leg and swung it at his head, knocking him off his motorcycle. I jumped and landed so I was facing him. I walked over and crouched down.

"That's what you get for leaving me for dead in that alley," I hissed, going on my instincts now.

"Honey, you're dead now," he mumbled, rubbing his jaw where I'd hit him. I opened my mouth to say something when I heard another machine, coming our way. I looked up and saw nothing but knew it was Jason.

"Fuck, I forgot," I muttered to myself.

"Better get going, don't want him waiting," Alex smirked. My eyebrows crinkled, did I hear a hint of jealously? I leaned in until our lips were almost touching.

"Nope, we wouldn't want that, would we?" I breathed, brushing my lips against his, softly. Then I was gone, running to my room. I stripped out of my dress and slipped my heels off, pulling on an oversized t-shirt. I turned off the light and easily found my way back to my bed. I was comfortable under the covers when I heard a knock at my door.

"Come in," I called. Jason pushed through the door and walked to my bed, not saying a word. He kicked off his shoes and climbed on, getting on top of me.

"Jason, are you ok--?" I started. He cut me off by pressing his lips to mine. My body reacted quickly, tangling my fingers in his hair. He licked my bottom lip, gaining access.

Wrong! This is so wrong!

Our tongues rubbed together as I arched my back, pressing my body against his. His arms snaked around my torso and brought me closer. Suddenly, he was kissing my neck, leaving feather-like kisses.

'Veronika, stop.' Alex's voice echoed through my head.

'Make me!' I thought with gritted teeth. I began to kiss Jason's neck, then biting it softly. I felt it, his heartbeat. It vibrated through my skull, making my throat yearn. A dull pain started in my gums. I began to bite harder.

"Damn kinky, you DO like it rough," Jason grunted, grinding against me. The pain exploded, tendrils of it curling around my head and into my brain. My vocal cords went silent as I wanted to scream, yell out, screech from the pain. My vision went black but I stayed conscious. My tongue ran along my top teeth, feeling two fangs, protruding. Alex wasn't lying! I was a vampire.

"Kinky?" I heard him ask. Him? Who is he? My mind went blank. My rational side kept repeating a name but my irrational side, the hungry one, didn't listen. His heartbeat echoed and echoed, drawing me closer to his neck.

Then I bit and blacked out completely.

****

I awoke in a car, with my eyes shut but still knowing I was facing the window. I could hear swears escaping someone's mouth. A guy. His heartbeat? I listened closely, waiting for the same vibrations from earlier. 5 minutes went by, nothing. A song I didn't recognize played through the speakers. Suddenly, I felt restrained by something. I struggled, using my strength. Zilch, it didn't budge.
