The Accidental Strigoi

Chapter 5

Percy's POV

I bit into her throat and sucked her dry, dropping her dead body on the ground with distaste as I savored the flavor of her warm blood. So sweet. So addicting. Sighing at the mess, I got in the car I had stolen form the academy and started towards the house. Seeing her green eyes made me think of Evangelista who was probably so bored being cooped up in my basement all alone. I really needed another drink... from her. Her blood was different... nicer... so much better than everyone else's. I got home and went straight to the basement, ready for the drink. When I got there I saw Evangelista asleep in her usual crumpled state. She was so high she couldn't even move herself into a better position. I started towards her but then stopped when I saw it. An aura. Hers being a silvery white. "She wouldn't..." I whispered out as I watched her aura continue to glow.

Anger levels skyrocketing, I reached into my holster pulled out a gun, shooting her leg to wake her up. She screamed in pain as she was ripped out of her dream. Even though it was a slight flesh wound, she was awake and now I could question her. "WHO WERE YOU WITH?!" I yelled at her. I was pissed off. She was still crying out in pain. I pushed her wound, causing her to scream as I yelled at her again. "It's just a flesh wound, bitch! But if you don't answer me, I'll make it a lot worse. Who were you with?!" I guess she really didn't want to tell me because she just kept crying. And I knew that she'd suffered worse, making this just a show. Grabbing her by her hair, I threw her at the wall. "Answer me, bitch!" As soon she she made contact with the wall, she broke. "Lissa!" she cried out. I was surprised by this. When did Lissa learn how to dream walk? Seems like she's getting more and more powerful.

"Looks like you can't be trusted. Now I'm going to have to keep an eye on you. I can't have you telling anyone what's happening and possibly finding a way to escape." I reached into the bag and pulled out some chains. I grabbed her by the throat and chained her to a pole, stuffing some cloth in her mouth to keep her quiet. I smiled at the way she looked. She was so pathetic. No longer the respected damper she was back at the academy. And even better, I knew she could only handle so much abuse before her body would give out on her. But until that happened, I realized I might as well have some fun with her in the meantime.

"And, this is just to make sure you know your place and don't try anything stupid..." I said as I reached out and grabbed her good leg. With a smile, I gave it a good flick, twisting it as she screamed in pain. The snapping noise that followed made me smile as I realized the bone broke. That's when her screaming and groaning breaths stopped. Looking up at her face, I realized she had probably passed out. I just laughed and left. I needed to go to court where the Queen stayed. I needed to deal with Lissa... and no one, not even Rose or Dimitri or even Rhydian could stop me.
