Fallen

Chapter 19

Jake asked Niall to meet him.

"What were you thinking, Niall?! Why did you do that?!" Jake yelled at Niall.

"I did what I wanted to do!" Niall was so calm, never raising his voice.

"You betrayed your family. From now on you're all alone!" Jake said meaning every word that was coming out of his mouth. That was it. Niall was officially kicked out just like Liam.

"If that's what you want, then fine, I'm leaving! I no longer belong to this stupid pack of yours!" Niall was no longer calm. He wasn't yelling either. He was serious but he was burning on the inside.

Niall went straight to Alisa because Jake would find her if he read Niall's mind again.

He got Alisa from that safe place and took her home.

When I got home with Liam, I decided on having a little conversation with Liam about our upcoming wedding.

"Are you sure about this whole wedding thing?" I asked Liam hoping that he would say no and tell me that it was just a joke.

"Yeah! It's not gonna be a real one, though! You don't need to be so dramatic over this!" Wait. Was he actually making fun of me for being dramatic. Yes I was being dramatic but I deserved it.

"I'm not being dramatic over this! You're the one who's being dramatic, saying you're gonna marry me, thinking that you're a hero or something!" He's not a hero. Not my hero at least.

Liam was quiet but I wasn't done talking yet.

I didn't want him to believe that I was going to trust him because he decided to pretend to be a hero...my hero.

"Why didn't you let him kill me?!" I asked him seriously. I lost my strength, my courage. I was exhausted, tired of fighting with him. I knew he was not going to be nice to me, or even like me, no matter how nice I would behave.

"I've tried to protect you! You should at least thank me! Now I'm responsible of your safety! You have to trust me!" I hope he doesn't really mean that. There's no way I'm trusting him.

"You know this is not happening! I'm not goin-.."

There was a knock on the door interrupting my little speech.

I opened the door and my eyes met Alisa and Niall.

"Alisa?!"

I hugged her so tight, almost taking her breath away.

"You're alive!" I squealed.

"I am! I heard about the deal you made with Jake! How are you still alive?!" She wondered.

"I'm going to marry Liam." The thought haunted me.

"Are you being serious?!" She nearly choked on her words.

"Yep!" I said, not wanting to pay so much attention to the whole wedding thing.

"It's the only way for her not to be killed!" Of course Liam should get involved in our conversation.

"It isn't the only way, Liam and you know it!" Niall reminded him.

"What's the other way?" Alisa wondered once again. So many questions.

"To turn her into a vampire!" Liam said coolly as if it wasn't that big of a deal.

"I prefer the wedding!" I almost screamed at the thought of being a vampire.
