vampire next door

chapter eighteen

I choose you.
And I'll choose you,
Over and over,
Without pause,
Without pause,
In a heartbeat.
And I'll keep choosing you.

Callidoras POV
"I finally found you" I deep, husky voice said in my ear again.

I closed my eye tightly not wanting to look at the man with the voice.

He was hunched over me with his face close to my neck. He inhaled my scent and let out a small sigh.

He tightened his grip on my wrist and I whimpered still shutting my eyes.

"No wonder...you scent divinely" he said letting go of my hand and stepping away from me.

I opened my eyes slowly wondering whose eyes I was going to meet.

A tall muscular figure stood with his back before me. He wore a black silk suit that defined his muscles. His shoes were black and shiny. His hair was long, dark and shiny and it was packed in a ponytail. I noticed that some strands of hair were dropping on his face.

"Who are you?" I stuttered taking small steps towards him.

"Don't you remember me?" He said turning around to meet my eye. His face was strong and his jawline was very sharp.

I recognized his eyes!

One was red while the other was black. It fitted his face handsomely.

It was him!

The man I would never forget. His eyes, his look that I would never forget. That wicked grin that was always plastered on his face.

"You...!" I shouted my eyes getting watery with tears.

"Relax, I guess you remember me... Don't you?" He asked sitting down on my sofa crossing his long legs.

My head was throbbing. Was I dreaming? Why was this man suddenly here. I haven't seen him since ages and now he was standing before me and I can't do anything about it.

I desperately wanted to lurch at him and kill him. I wanted to scream at him and ask him to bring my parents back to life.

"You always wanted to meet me so what are you waiting for...attack me? Hit me!! He shouted glaring at me and spreading his arms apart. I could already feel the tears dropping.

" what do you want?" I croaked out as he grinned widely placing his hands on his sides and smoothing his suit.

"You are finally calm aren't you?" He asked.

"What do you want?" I asked again as the tears still trickled down my face.

"Your love interest..." He started as his voice trailed off.

What was he talking about?

"Do you know what kind of person he is, why does he suddenly want you" he says looking at me boldly.

"What are you talking about?" I asked confused. How did he know of Clemente. Has he been watching me?"

"That's OK to chew on now, I'll be back soon" he said smiling.
