Destine (18 +)

The Past

The shout and someone shaking me violently are pulling me back from the darkness. From the darkness, I hid like a coward.

Whoever the asshole is... Is winning I can feel myself going back to the painful reality. I grip to the darkness by the feet not wanting to wake up, not wanting to feel the pain...

The person keeps screaming, shaking me... I blink focusing on the face of a really hurt man. I try to breathe thru the pain. I focus on the sad green eyes knowing I am not the only one suffering this ordeal...

"What?" I whisper, not having the strength to yell at him. He doesn't say anything just lets out a sigh of relief. A soft smile starts to appear in his face and it annoys the hell out of me. "What the fuck do you want?" I sat up on the bed hands ball up in a fist about to punch him in the face... Nathan keeps the smile and who was I kidding? I won't hurt him if I am in pain... He must be 10 time's worse...

"You... Are... Angry" For a moment I am thrown back... Of course, I am angry. He brought me back to the real world...

"Nathan, if there's a person that knows me, is you. You should know why I'm angry." Nathan picks my hand and brings it to his cheek as if wanting to feel something.

"Zoey... I have been trying to get a reaction out of you for a week now." I stared at him a little annoyed, but-

"Ok..." I start to say carefully. "What do you want?"

"We need to talk..."

"Ok... Talk."

"Do you want to be a vampire?"

"You know I do... I need the strength."

"Yet... You won't marry me." My glare deepened.

"I'm mad at you."

"Could you remind me why?" He is hurt, and I am not sure I want to remind him.

"You claw your way into my heart... No matter how hard I tried to keep you away from it." Nathan smiles and gets closer to me enjoying my angry words.

"You claw your way into mine first."

"Yeah, well you had your Aurora. I had-"

"Your job?" He asks in disbelieve.

"Yes. That was enough for me. It kept me alone, safe, my own kind respected me... Now not only they hate me but they took what's precious to me." His face turns dangerously dark.

"First of all, they are NOT your kind! They never were!" He leans closer. "You're half vampire whether you like it or not!" I purse my lips in annoyance.

"I didn't know that! Ignorance is a fucking bliss!" I snap at Nathan.

"Are you FUCKING kidding me!" He growls. "Since when are you so depressed for the THING you didn't want in the first place?! The monster-" I slap him hard in the face. He grabs my wrist and pulls me to him angrily.

"How dare you!" He stands up pulling me to him. "How can you throw that to my face. I have been raised a Slayer, ever since I was 7 years old I was taught to hate vampires!" I try to pry my hands off but he holds on onto them.

"No, you weren't! You took that into yourself!" He pushed me against the bed getting on top of me still holding my wrist against his chest. "Faith, on the other hand, will be raised to hate you! To hate me!" His voice breaks and my anger dissipated a little bit. "Instead of helping me look for her, help JOHN-"

"John." I snort. "He probably sends you here to have sex with me, so you could just replace Faith." He frowns and looks down at me.

"That thought hasn't crossed John's head. He's actually out there looking for Faith along with Aurora." I turn my face to the side.

"You guy's won't find her."

"Not with that fucking attitude." I turn and stared at him with a glare.

"How long did it take him to find me? First 7 years, then when I was 18... It will be worse with Faith." He gulps in pain, and I could see it in his eyes. I was right. "I'm pretty sure Marcus is going to keep Faith from state to state. We will find her when he's ready for his revenge... not before. That's why I'm hiding... Like a fucking coward." 

Tears start falling down my cheek. "I can't Nathan. I can't have a life. The guilt is eating me from the inside out. I hated her, from the very beginning I wanted to kill her, now she's been taken and is all my fault-"

He put a hand on my lips stopping me from talking. "That wasn't hated, Zoey... You were scared, You know who you really hated?" I looked at him, then his lips.

"Who?" But I knew the answer.

"Me... And how that ended."

"Nathan," I whisper.

"Please Zoey... Don't leave me alone in this world... Losing our daughter is hard enough... If I don't have you on my side... It will destroy me." I close my eyes for a quick second. More tears spill.  I open my eyes slowly and wrap my legs around his waist.

"Let's help each other survive this pain... So we can function properly." He nods solemnly leaning down to me as he kisses me softly at first.

But it becomes hungry, rough, passionate. He starts taking my clothes to fast, and despite the situation. I laugh. He steps back staring at me in disbelieve.

I take the opportunity to take off my clothes with an amused smile. "How long have I been hiding in my bubble?" He follows my lead and takes off his clothes fast. Making me laugh again.

"Two weeks. Two long fucking weeks." I put my arms around his neck as he is already naked and jump wrapping my legs around his waist. He gets inside of me softly and I throw my head back almost letting go of him. But he grabs me by the waist and held me in place. He walked us like that and pinned me against the wall as he slammed into me, slamming me against the wall over and over again. "GOD. I miss you." He murmurs. I cling to him and hid my face in his chest.

"I"m sorry. I am here, and I'm back. I'll stay with you." I murmur. He put his hands on my ass an squeezed making me moan.

"I'll take you up on that." I smiled and held tighter against him, as I start to feel the familiar feeling. I cling tighter to him and he groans. He is close too. I wrap my legs around his waist tighter and move faster with him, getting our orgasm at the same time. 

He thrust into my one last time hard pushing his cock deeper then started to breath fast and resting his head against my chest. Two weeks... I left Nathan to deal with all of this for two fucking weeks. 

No more. It was useless but I will look for my daughter, and once I find her I will show Marcus what suffering really is- "Zoey!" I blink and stare at Nathan. He looks scared and had untangled off me and was standing in front of him. My hands were still around his neck. "You promised." He murmurs nervously. I smile and pulled him to me.

"I wasn't hiding in my bubble. I was thinking." He arches an eyebrow. "I promise you. I'm here." I gave him a quick kiss and let go of him going to the bathroom.

Be ready Marcus, because when I find you. I will return the favor ten times worse...
