D e l i g h l a :
As Danny and I walked back to the pack house I tried to put every thing together.
I'm obviously not just a Vampire. But the main question is how in the hell was I able to do that or well transform into a dog in any kind of way? It just doesn't add up.
A big white mansion came into view. The first thing I noticed was all the windows, it sort of reminded me of the house on Twilight that Edward lives in but this house was beyond beautiful. The sight was gradually breathtaking. You could tell it had many stories, it nearly looked like a castle and then I began to wonder if it were some type of castle. The smell a freshly cut flowers took over the air and worked as a spell to lure anyone towards the property. Even though it was pitch black outside, the house was radiating light and it gave a comfortable feel. I felt welcomed in a way and that made me smile a little.
As we walked up to the mansion I had a weird feeling. I felt my throat start to feel that acidy feeling, but this time it was different. It felt like my throat was swelling but burning at the same time. My eyes started to burn and I felt the veins inside and under my eyes become agitated and start to throb. I felt really shaky and had to stop walking. I took a deep breath and put my hands on my knees trying to control my breathing.
Danny stopped walking and turned to look at me.
"Lighla, whats wrong?" He asked and got on his knees in front of me to see my face. He put his hand on my shoulder and tried to get a better look at my face, I then heard him curse under his breath and watched him stand up.
"What is it? Danny?" I tried to get his attention as he paced back and forth in front of the pack house.
"Theres vervain in the air. We have it all around the house to keep vampires out." He stopped pacing at looked at me. "Babe, you're a hybrid. Your body isn't reacting the way it should usually react when in the presence of vervain, its in the air. Theres tons of it in the air. Thats the only reason you're being affected. But its only taking a small affect on you. Your wolf can handle it but your vampire cant." He rand his hand along his face in exasperation. Then he took my appearance in as if that was going to give him the answers.
The throbbing lessened and I could feel my muscles beginning to loosen all over my body making it easier for me to slowly stand up straight. The burning sensation in my throat still hadn't stopped but it didn't get worse either.
"Can you handle it?" He asked. As he made his way toward me.
"I think so." I rasped.
"Alright. Tell me if you cant and I'll figure something out. I promise." He smiled slightly but enough to where his gleaming white teeth showed. He took my hand in his and we walked up the stairs to the mansion. There were only maybe ten or so but thats still a lot of exercise for me. Since when have I ever liked exercise?
He opened the door to the pack house and held it open for me. I smiled and took a step in. It was eerily quiet and the floors creaked which was unexpected due to the beauty of the outside. It was pitch black and I couldn't see a thing. I would usually be able to make silhouette's out but even those weren't evident. It has to be the vervain. Danny said theres loads of it around the house and its in the air.
I gasped as I felt a hand slide onto the small of my back and hot breath on my neck.
"Its just me." I let out a breath of relief.
"Jesus christ. What're you trying to do, kill me?" I said and held my un-beating heart. I then felt a pang of hurt flash towards me by my own words. Kill me. I'm already dead. I cant be killed. I was already dead and without my permission. My whole life was swept under my feet. Its as if its just a dream now. A dream that'll never happen again.
I suddenly felt angry towards the boys. After all, it is their fault I'm like this. Its not like I chose to be like this. If anything being a werewolf isn't so bad because I can actually still be alive. I don't have to be in that form all the damn time. Yeah I don't always have my fangs out but at least being a werewolf my heart is still beating. Im immortal now and theres nothing I can do to change that. As much as I want to change it, I cant go back in time.
"Hey, hey, hey. Calm down. Its alright. You're safe now. No one can hurt you." The smell of mint and honey filled my nostrils. I didn't know I was crying until Danny started to shh me and I felt wetness on my face. His strong arms were wrapped around me, engulfing me in a hug. His words were reassuring and held so much emotion in them that it made me cry harder.
"Ly, lets talk about it in the morning alright? You need your rest," He held me in his arms tightly, almost as if he didn't want to let me go. I nodded snuggled into his chest. I need some sort of comfort. I need someone, anyone, to tell me everything is going to be alright and that its all going to be over soon.
Right now Danny is all the reassurance I have.
