Beloved

Oh No

"Yes bestie! Hold up a second." She and Jake both jumped to avoid a few Vampires and she came back and killed them both. As more of Jake's friends arrived, the main battle loomed close and I feared for Talyn and Talyn alone.

"You're a Vampire now, and you just killed those people!"

"Yeah, it's cool. I wish I could have told you sooner but I had to get a handle on my hunger control. And so, they're trying to kill you so none of their lives matter!" I was scared to say anything else to her, I had lost my best friend.

"Here, stand behind me." I was set down and did as told. Jake walked to the front line and his allies crowded me, including Talyn and Lily. "I don't think you should see this dear. When he's as angry as he is now he's-"

"I want to see." I demanded and she stepped aside. Jake walked over to them maliciously, there seemed to be a literal demon doused in blood manifested over him and it cackled ravenously.

"For your treachery and conspiracy against me and my Beloved, the verdict is guilty and the punishment is death!" Jake seemed furious, he blasted to other side and ran through their numbers quickly. Those left in his wake were mauled and torn apart ruthlessly. It was a maelstrom of destruction and death... He was. Cries of repentance washed over the land yet he ignored them and dealt away with whomever they came from. By the time he had finished, blood was everywhere. Limbs were everywhere, he was truly a Monster... A monster that feigned to love me. Why? What did I do to deserve this fate? I didn't kill Tate!!!

"Ymir? Are you ok?" Talyn asked and I turned to her and cried. "No, nothing is ok." I said simply before breaking down completely. I cried so hard that I couldn't see, I felt movement and I was picked up but I didn't know by who. I didn't care, I was dealing with this the only way I knew how. When I woke, it was still dark and I was in Jake's arms. We were sitting in the field and he was looking down.

"I'm sorry... I'm just very afraid of you and what you can do. I don't really want to be bitchy, I just want to live my life. Thank you, also. I only survived because of you. I'll try to be more open to your rules from now on. Just... keep me alive, please." I put my face in his chest and he spoke softly. "No, no I was wrong and overbearing. You do have a life outside of me and you deserve your freedom, I just... I want your attention and I can be a little bitch if I don't get it I guess. At least talk to me, maybe then we can figure this whole thing out." I nodded and agreed to that before snuggling up to him more. He smiled and I chuckled. "Don't get too comfortable, this is a one time thing." I joked and he stumbled over his own words before asking, " Actually, I was wondering... Could this be a weekly thing, I like to hold you and we could talk about our days and problems easily and quietly." I pondered his proposal and nodded. Now that I see that he's even stronger than I thought it would be best to at least work with him and maybe he'd get tired of me. I hope so, I can't deal with this world. There's too many ways to die and they could all happen so easily.

"I have a confession to make." He sighed heavily and I sat up to focus on him before noticing my arm. It was completely limp yet I didn't feel it at all. It was bloody and had an array of different colors. I looked back to Jake and he sighed again. "I compelled your pain away, I'm sorry. I just couldn't heal it while I was fighting and I didn't want you to be in so much pain. I can heal it now but I'll have to take away the compulsion." I sighed and thanked him before telling him to do it. His eyes flashed and the pain crashed into me like a truck. He bit his wrist while I sat and powered through the excruciating pain. He held out his bloody wrist.

"Drink."

"What?!"

"Drink my blood to heal your arm."

"What, no!"

"It's the only way, just do it!"

I reluctantly started to drink his blood and marveled at the taste. It tasted like heaven in liquid form and the pain started to cease immediately after I started drinking. My bones reformed with slight pain but I was good as new in a few seconds but I kept drinking, it was impossible to stop.

"Ok now. That's enough." He said but I kept going.

"Ymir? You're all healed up. You can stop now." Despite his protests, I kept drinking.

"Ah, ow! Ok, hey!" He thumped my forehead and my mouth dislodged from his arm.

"Sorry, I don't know what came over me. I tried to stop but it was just so good." I explained and he rubbed his wrist as it healed shut. "Eh, it's ok. I now see that all the guys that want me are only after my blood." We both laughed and Talyn slowly approached us. "Hey Ymir. You ok?"

I nodded to her with a smile and she smiled back. "Great, sorry I didn't tell you that I was a Vampire. We didn't want to freak you out too much."

" I understand, babe. It's ok." A few seconds went by before I thought of something that could be my ticket to get the hell away from Jake.

"Hey so does this mean that I can become a Vampire too now or no?"
