The War

Chapter 3

Following my grandmothers advice, I ditched work and went to the capital. There were many people since it was the weekend.

Where could the first one be...

I thought back to all those news reports and searched for something in common. A brothel.

I already didnt like the sound of this first 'demon spawn' according to the news. How would I even convince them to join me.

Where would i start? There are too many brothels in the city. I don't even know how this guy looks like.

The world is so doomed.

I tried going to the first one that was closest to me. I figured i should start with the ones closest to the outskirts and work my way to the center from there.

I'm positive I'll die the moment I speak to him anyway.

The first one i entered had a surprising amount of people in it. I figured most would go at night but who knows how the mind of this first guy works.

"How much for you?" Some creep asked me the moment I entered. He tried laying his hands on me but I quickly slapped his hands away.

"Too much for you to afford. Don't touch me" I seethed at him, doing my best to stay calm so I wouldnt draw too much attention. His face quickly changed to one of annoyance.

"Oh, you must be looking for a cheating partner then" He said "No wonder he would be at a place like this" he grumbled under his breath.

I rolled my eyes and walked away, pretending I didnt hear what he just said.

Is this how my grandmother feels when she ignores me. Fun

She told me they have a special glint in their eyes. Perfect, look like an idiot while staring deeply into everyones eyes. Just what i needed to keep on the low note.

My negative thoughts continued to flow as I searched for someone who could be a possible candidate for who I'm looking for.

By the end of the day, it felt as if I've visited more than half of these disgusting places but I needed to keep searching. I was exhausted though.

The sun has already set by the time I've entered what was possibly my 8th brothel already and sat at the back although the back seemed shady as hell.

Other than how dim it was in here and the blaring music, the place seemed relatively better than the other places I went to.

She said they were born quite recently and should be near my age but all I've seen were men in their late 20s or older.

Either way, I did do my best to search through them anyway. My grandmother could have been wrong about their ages anyway... she has aged quite a lot.

I sat in the darker side of the area, trying to keep myself unnoticed. I dont want more creeps going after me and i dont need more attention.

This place was even more crowded than the others, probably because the sun is already down. I was surrounded by people but for some reason i had a strange feeling.

It felt like there was a dark presence near me. As if I've found him. Like he's near me.

I sesrched around frantically, not sure where to start in this sea or people. This place suddenly seemed to grow as more people filled in.

"Hey there" someone mumbled softly next to me. It didnt exactly sound like a friendly voice though.

My mind was too busy searching in the crowd of people to look back at the man who was staring intently at me.

"We'll obviously you're not here for...that business" he continued even though he could see i wasnt paying any attention. Whsts his deal?

I finally turned to look at the man and almost let out a small gasp. He looked around 2 years older than me at least with a clean face and black hair.

He didnt look like the type to be in a place like this. He seemed almost...angelic? Yet I could feel a dangerous aura that surounded him.

"You-" I was cut off by the stranger. "Wanna come with me? You look like you could use some fun" he smirked.

He was playing with a dagger and apple but his focus was on me. "I really shou-" but I was cut off once again.

"You want a drink? Or do you want to do this completely sober" he let out a dark chuckle. I tried to get up and escape the situation but he grabbed my wrist and practically dragged me out of the place.

I did my best to resist and run away but he had a tight grip and wouldnt let me go. We kept going until we reached a seemingly abandoned part of the city.

It was eerily quiet like screaming for help would do me no good. He pushed me into an alleyway and pushed me against the wall.

"Be quiet" he said, leaning closer to me. He pressed himself against me and i could feel his hot breath fan against my neck.

He looked down at me with a dangerous smirk plastered on his face. I noticed a quick shine in his eyes. They turned red for a quick second before returning to their soft, brown color.

I let out a gasp, realizing I found him.

I found him.

He took advantage of that moment and pressed his mouth against mine, quickly establishing dominance.

I did my best to fight back and get him off me but once again, I'm held in his tight grip. Eventually, he did pull away for air, keeping his strong grip on me.

"Wait!" I exclaimed. "Don't even bother begging me to stop or get off" he told me, once again feeling his hot breath against my neck

He pressed his lips on my neck as i stuggled to resist.

"Wait!" I said louder. "I need you". He stopped what he was doing and pulled away with a maniacal grin "Thats the spirit"

"That's not what I meant" I whimpered as his grip tightened more if it was even possible.

"Darling, I dont care" He told me, about to go back to what he was doing. Damn, this is harder than I thought.

"Please" I whispered, tears threatening to spill from my eyes. He sighed in annoyance, as if I was interrupting him too much

Good.

"Fine, what is it" he said, seriously annoyed. "But dont think this is over"
