Trust

<Chapter 7>

"You assholes" was the very first thing I said once I woke up.

Once I was completely conscious, I took in my surroundings. I was sitting on the floor of the bunker against one of the poles with my hands tied behind my back and around the pole. 

"You really were asking for that." A familiar voice said in front on me. I looked up to see the guy that knocked me out.

"And you really were asking for that knife to the knee." 

He growled and began to walk away. "Wait where's Edgar... and why..why did he attack me like that?" 

"Oh so now you want to be my friend." 

"Nah, I just want answers." I replied.

He took a deep breath in and faced me. "Well vampires sometimes lose their humanity from time to time. And lets just say, they go blood crazy and go full vampire. He's back to normal now though. I should go check on him." He turned to leave but I stopped him. "Hey, do you want to unhandcuff me?" "No." He replied. Okay I really am not liking this guy right now.

"What's your name?" I asked in my sweetest voice. 

"Charlie." 

"Well Charlie, it would be great if you could unhandcuff me, and we won't have any trouble between the two of us."

"How did you learn to throw a knife like that?" He asked, changing the subject.

"None of your concern." I snapped back

"Okay." He said walking out of the room.

Goddamnit. Why do I have to be so stubborn? If I had just answered him, he would have uncuffed me, but my stubborn ass had to dismiss the question. My eyes wandered to the floor and I saw blood. And it was my blood. I realized that it was coming from my lower region, then I realized what it was.

"Hey assholes, I'm bleeding from my vagina, I need pads." I shout. I'm not one to be ashamed of my period. It's literally apart of life, so why be so embarrassed about it?

Edgar walked in with my favorite pad brand. I was really confused as to why he had those.

"I took them when I found you. I figured you would need these sometime soon."

I just looked at him. "So, I'll let you out of there." He walked over and split the handcuffs with his bare hands. I made a mental note to never get in a fist fight with any vampire. When I got up, my lower half was soaked in period blood. "Ew this is really disturbing." I whispered mostly to myself. "Does this not effect you?" I questioned him.

"Period blood doesn't attract vampires." There was an awkward silence after that.

"Well you can go get a shower, there's some clothes for you in your room that you can wear."

I walked to my room and sure enough, there was a bag filled with my clothes. I wanted to know how he got these, but I took a fresh pair of clothes out and and pad and began to walk to the bathroom. On my way I saw the guy I met at the top of the steps. He was staring at my blood soaked shorts. "Take a picture, it'll last longer." He smirked at my comment and I continued to the bathroom. 

After my shower, I felt much cleaner. I changed into my clean clothes and opened the door. All 3 men were sitting on the sofa and they all looked at me. "Alice, come sit, we need to talk." Charlie said calmly.

"About what?"

"Just come sit down." He said while clenching his jaw. I liked how I was pissing him off, so I kept up the attitude.

"Not until you tell m-"- Charlie came at me with his vampire speed and threw me over his shoulder and walked back to the sofa, throwing me next to the one guy who's name is unknown. As Charlie went back to his seat. I felt the guy next to me staring at me. I slowly turned my head to look at him. He had the same hair and eyes as Edgar, but just looked a bit younger. Maybe a year or two older than me. Once my head was completely turned toward him, I realized that he had the creepiest smile that I had ever seen plastered on his face. I slowly turned to look at Edgar and Charlie and it looked like they were both trying to hold in a laugh.

"What's this one's problem?" I asked pointing to the guy.

"That's Zedd. He's my little brother." said Edgar.

I turned to face Zedd and he booped my nose while showing his fangs and licking them. I scooted away from him and looked at Edgar, wanting answers.

"Zedd is a complicated creature. He was born mute, and he's a psychopath."

"But like, not an actual psychopath..." I said unsure if he meant an actual one or he was just a bit crazy.

"Before our beloved Zedd was even a vampire, he raped women....and men, then would bury them in the backyard. I don't really know when he started doing this, but it was before he even became a vampire. After we became vampires I made sure he was under control and he only..kills people... for.....vampire uses."

I looked over to Zedd and he was cracking up like something really funny just happened. "Soo, what are all the facts about vampires?" I questioned with my eyes flickering from Edgar to Zedd. I honestly did not want to look away from Zedd, he was really scaring me and I had the feeling that if I looked away long enough, that he would attack.

"Well vampires are extremely tall, as you can tell. The average is about 6'5. We drink blood, have super strength, super speed, and we can live forever."

"Huh"

"Huh?" Charlie asked raising an eyebrow.

"Yeah, what do you want me to say?

Charlie got up and slowly started to walk towards me. "We could drain you of blood in a second, we can easily overpower you, we can make you do our bidding, we could take over the humans, oh wait! We already did! So if I were you, I would watch it with us and never underestimate us. 

I sat there staring at him with an unamused look. "Yeah, sorry to burst your bubble, but don't think you're so high and mighty, you're not the only thing that could just kill me. A human could kill me, a child could kill me, an aggravated goose could kill me, so what makes you so damn special?"

Zedd was getting a load out of this. I think he was laughing so hard that he was running out of air. I peered at the clock behind Charlie and it read 10:30 p.m. 

"Well I don't know about you, but I'm going to bed."

I started to walk to my room when I heard Charlie murmur something like, "I would sleep with one eye open tonight." But I just flipped him off without even turning around.
