Deadly Desires

Chapter 5

It's been a week since I've seen or had any contact with Maia. She's been avoiding me like the plague. I I needed answers and she wasn't willing to give them to me.

After I heard her sprint through our apartment and put the door I went inside of her room to find a clue.

Something.

Something that'll make me understand this more. That night has still left me breathless and confused. What happened to Tori. Did she really leave in the middle of the night. I scoffed at my own thought. As if I'd actually care. Right ?

This still doesn't explain why Maia was in my bed. Why she wore the same clothes Tori did. This wasn't some we have the same shirt and pants. It was literally she had her laced bra that peaked over the shoulder of her shirt. The same star shaped necklace. That fell just between her breast. Down to the ripped burgundy jeans with a letter T stitched on the side.

To say things were weird would be such a fucking understatement.

Maia's room was the opposite of mine. Chris Brown, Trey Songz and the oh so dreamy (as she puts it) August Alsina posters covered every inch of her once pink wall. Her bed covered in a purple and green mixed comforter with fuzzy pillows lining her headboard. Her room makes my stomach twist from all this girly shit. Whereas to my room is black. Just black. A little hint of green but mainly black.

I shuffled through the drawers of her chest not knowing what in the hell I was actually looking for.

Nothing.

Nothing in here gave me answers to every question running through my mind. Rummaging through the last drawer I came across an old photo book. I opened it and noticed it dated back to the year 1382. Why did she have a photo book from then. I flipped through the pages coming across texts and hand written messages. One in particular caught my eye.

Monday 1382

Ive found myself coming across the young lady countless times. Before the sun rises she appears in my dreams. Before the moon sets I think of her. Tracking down this kind of species is impossible. They invade every possible private encounter in your life. I find myself questioning if this quest was meant for me. My blood isn't special. Does my ability set me aside from the rest? Am I inhumane to the world. I ask questions that have not one answer. Tomorrow's a new day. The day I find Sarah.

Regards,
Maia.

My eyes widened at the name on the end of the note. Maia?! The actual fuck is this. I flipped through more pages reading every detail written down. I must have been in her room for hours as I read up until January 27th 2014. Four years ago today. The day I met Maia.

January 27th 2014.

I've finally caught up with her again. She hasn't changed since my eyes first laid upon her in 1382. Her same cheeky figure. Perfect hair. Perfect body. God this girl was mesmerizing. But today would be the day I'd become her bestfriend....again. Her kind needs to be taken down. She's run amuck for too long and I'll be the one to put an end to it.

Maia.

I threw the book to the ground. Eyes widened as I took in the information. She's been in my life. Countless times. But how. Each friend or bestfriend I've come across has been a different person. This made no sense. In every entry she's wrote about experiences I've had with her, as my close friend. But how in the hell would it have been her each time. Sometimes it was a male. I rubbed my temples as I felt a headache rising. This was too much.

I heard the front door unlocking and I quickly put the book back into the drawer and sprinted to my room. Softly pushing the door barely closing it. Enough for me to see her go into her room. She came down the hallway earbuds in moving her body back and forth to the music. She went inside her room closing the door behind her. I ran into my bathroom splashing water on my face deciding how to confront her.

I heard a loud knock go across my door.

"Hey Serenity? You in here?"

I felt my breathe hitch in my throat and my grip on the sink grew tighter. I walked behind the bathroom door and watched as she entered my room looking around. I prayed she wouldn't come in the bathroom. She looked around once more then shrugged her shoulders and sat on my bed staring at her phone.

Why the fuck was I so scared to confront her. Get a grip women your a damn demon for fucks sake. My chest rose and fell with deep quiet breaths. I went for the bathroom door handle to exit when I heard a loud rumbling coming from my room.

I peaked behind the door to see Maia doubled over on my bed gripping her stomach. Her back spread out enlarging to a spine almost twice hers. She stood up and the wingspan of her arms extended. Veins and muscles ran down them both. Her small figure grew taller and her hair into a short fade. Her once round backside flattened into a tight ass. Muscles lined her legs. My eyes widened as I witnessed her go from a female to a male in a matter of seconds.

She turned around in the mirror to admire the tall toned body she had accumulated.

"Damn." She breathed out. Her once High voice now a low husky demanding tone. She flexed in the mirror before grabbing her phone and jogging back to her room. I waited until she left to peak through the crack of my bedroom door and watched as she had changed into a muscle shirt and shorts. Wearing a book bag on her back she shut her door turning her gaze back towards my door looking around. Luckily she didn't notice me and ran to the front door slamming it behind her.

Bitch what the fuck was that.

WHY DIDNT SHE TELL ME SHE WAS A-

Fucking Shapeshifter.

A/N
