My deadly love ~ { l.f. + m.h. }

Chapter twenty three

They arrived back at the boarding house. James put the three unconscious humans in the basement. Cole carried Lucas upstairs while Maya went to retrieve blood bags from the freezer. All three siblings sat on chairs surrounding Lucas's bed.

Lucas was breathing in and out shakily. He was in horrible condition. His body that was once strong was bony and frail. His body was dirty from the cold cellar floor. Jus thinking of what they did to their brother made the siblings all sick.

"We should kill them for what they did to Lucas." Cole spoke viciously. "As much as we want to we can't. That's Maya's dad. We need to get the council off our backs." Vanessa told Cole.

"Can't I at least kill one?" Cole begged. "No Cole." Vanessa and James yelled in unison. Maya came back with two blood bags. She climbed on the bed next to Lucas.

"Baby wake up." She shook him gently. Lucas fluttered his eyes open. He thought he was back in the cell and he panicked. He sped off the bed and hid in the corner. He was shaking profusely, hiding himself.

"Please no more." He begged. What the hell did they do to him? Maya thought. Tears sprang from the corner of her eyes.

"Lucas calm down it's just us." Vanessa said. He looked up. He saw Maya where he laid on the bed. "I'm sorry." He apologized and fled the house.

"Lucas!" All four of them screamed. "Cole,Vanessa go after him. I'll stay with Maya." James ordered. They nodded their heads and vamp sped out after Lucas.

"My dad did this to him. It's my fault." Maya cried. "Hey it's not your fault. You had no part in torturing him. Okay? Lucas will be back to normal. We'll make sure of that." He enveloped Maya into a hug. He loved her as if he was a little sister.

Lucas ran out of the house. He couldn't be in there. Just in case it wasn't real. He just needed to get out. He didn't know where he was running to he just needed to go.

He bumped into a guy that was jogging. He heard his heart beating and he felt his canines elongate. His green eyes turned red. "What are you?" Please don't kill-," but he grabbed the guy by his throat. He only smelt the blood running through his veins. He wasn't in control like he used to be.

He bit down on his carotid artery. The guy screamed in agony. He couldn't hear anything or see anything but the blood. He felt two hands pull him off of the guy. But it was too late. The guy's head rolled to the ground.

He tried to fight them off but he felt something poke his neck and he fell unconscious. "Take him back to the house Cole I'll take care of the body." Vanessa told her brother.

Cole nodded and vamp sped them back to the house. Vanessa sighed. There was blood everywhere. She quickly went to work.

Cole came back with Lucas. James and Maya saw Lucas with blood all over his mouth. "What the hell happened?" Maya asked. James could already tell what happened.

"He wasn't in control. He killed a guy." Cole explained. Maya opened her mouth in shock. She knew what he was but never saw the aftermath of killing someone.

"Are you okay?" James asked. "Yeah. I'm just in shock that's all. But that doesn't change a thing. I still love him." She replied.

"Do we need to put him in the cellar?" Cole asked James.

"No it will make him feel trapped. Let's just cuff him to the bed." James said. "Can we at least bathe him first?" She questioned.

"Yeah he'll be out for two hours at most." Cole responded. Cole and James let Maya wash him. They were outside the room just in case.

She scrubbed the blood and dirt off of Lucas's face and body. She took a moment to look at him. She hadn't seen her boyfriend in five weeks. She wouldn't have known what to do if they had never saw him again. If he was... no she was not going to think about that.

With the help of Vanessa, they dressed him and placed him on the bed. They attached one cuff to his wrist and the other to the headboard.

Lucas opened his eyes. He tried to move his wrist but he felt restrained. He tried to get out of them. He felt a soft hand caress his face. He also smelt the familiar smell of strawberries. He knew that touch. It was his Maya.

He looked up. He saw his beautiful girlfriend. Her ocean blue eyes. Her blonde locks and her soft lips. "Maya." He whispered. "I'm here baby." She told him. Tears were rolling down her cheeks.

With his free hand he touched her cheek. He wiped her tears with his thumb. She held on to his hand. She's here. She is actually here. He thought.

She wrapped her arms around his torso. He closed her eyes and hugged her with all he had. "I missed you so much." He whispered. He kissed her head and melted into her embrace. He felt the cuff on his other wrist loosen and he wrapped his other arm around her. The other three siblings smiled at the adorable couple.

The siblings decided to let them have privacy and closed the door after them.

Maya sobbed into his chest. "I thought you actually left me." She whimpered. "I would never do that to you baby. I love you too much to do that." He declared.

He placed his hands on the sides of her face. His sea foam green eyes met her cerulean blue eyes. Their eyes expressing everything they felt in that moment. He leaned in and pressed his lips against hers. Maya threw her arms around his neck. His hands settled on her waist.

He turned his head to deepen the kiss. Lucas's tongue tangled with hers. After a few minutes, they released for air. Maya pressed her forehead against his.

"You have no idea how much I wanted to kiss you." He declared. "I was so miserable without you. I'm so glad you're here with me." Maya told him.

"I love you so much." He remarked. "I love you too." Maya declared. He kissed her forehead and they both fell in a deep sleep.
