Past Curfew

2. Meeting Mr Serious

I hear my door slamming open and I shoot up quickly, flustered and confused. I look beside me and see that Blake is gone.

Thank god.

I look up and glare at the intruder. I recognise her straight away.

"What do you want, Kitty?" I groan out. I watch her roll her eyes and flick her hair back.

"Ryder wants to see you, now!" She screeches out. I cringe at how high her voice is.

"Well he can wait." I lay back down, pulling a pillow over my face. I hear her heels clicking on the concrete floor and suddenly feel her hands on my shoulder. She pulls me back until I'm out of bed. I land on the ground with a thump.

"Bitch," I say. One thing about kitty, she might not be a purebred but she is sure is strong. I hear her chuckle and watch her heels as they go further away from me.

I place my hand on the cold hard ground. Not that it bothers me that much. I look down at my naked body, I need clothes.

I stand up and walk over to my drawers. I open them up and grab a random shirt and slip it on. I then take some knickers and black jeans. I run a comb through my messy black hair.

Just before I go to walk out the door I grab my sword, I never go anywhere without my baby. I lock my room behind me, not that there is anything anyone would want to take. I continue down the hall until I reach Ryder's door. I walk right in and see him sitting on the couch.

"Ever heard of knocking?" He says in a serious voice.

"Ever heard of easing up?" I shoot straight back.

Ryder has never been the one to smile, always has a straight line of his face. Never lets loose, just focuses on how to keep the gang alive. He is pretty good looking, I'm not going to deny it. He has tousled brown hair and brown almost black eyes. He is a purebred, everyone in our gang is, except Kitty. Ryder is the oldest of us all, living in the time before the curfew. Where vampires lived in hiding from humans, not wanting to be discovered.

"Octavia, please have a seat. This is a serious matter." He says. I sigh and walk to the red couch across from him.

"So, what do you want to talk about?" I ask, my eyes go wide when he glares at me. Did he find out about Blake?

"This is about last night." He says. I gulp, maybe he does.

"Look, let me explain-" I start

"Explain what? That you got stabbed and worst of all, Felix saw you!" He yells. My eyes go back to normal when I realise this has nothing to do with Blake.

"I didn't know he was around, ok? I was hungry, I may be dead, but i still need to eat Ryder." He sighs and his eyes soften but his mouth remains a straight line.

"Octavia, it's not about that, it's the way you killed the human. Felix saw you as ruthless as they are." He tries to explain to me about the situation. I give him a confused look. He places his hands behind his head and pulls his locks. He lets go and looks up at me, his eyes almost sad.

"They want you to join their gang, Octavia. They will do whatever it takes."
