Bloody Rose

Ashton

"Every body keeps trying to change me, they don't like me killing blah, blah, blah. I don't care what anyone else thinks." Ashton held a bottle of wine in her hand as she spoke to Mia. They were in the living room. The girls had a mansion in town. It had many rooms and little furniture. But it fit both of their personalities.

Ashton had been venting to Mia ever since she got home from Roman. They were drunk.

"But don't them all?" Mia asked before taking a drink from her bottle.

"Yes, but I don't care what they want me to do. In fact, let's go we're going out." Ashton finished off her bottle and stood. Mia followed her and they left and ran into the woods.

"We are going to kill?" Mia asked.

"Of course we will." Ashton ran ahead, taking the lead. Her red hair lit in the moonlight. They ran along the edge of a cliff and kept running forward into the cemetery. "You smell any humans?" She asked Mia once she reached the gate.

"Let's eat." Mia climbed the gate, eager for blood. Ashton followed behind closely. They crept up on a group of college students playing drinking games.

They walked into the middle of the conversation with their fangs in full view.

"Who are you?" A black haired girl asked. Ashton smiled.

"The devil." She replied showing her fangs.

"What the hell?" Her boyfriend was startled. Ashton lunged forward snapping his neck. His body fell limp from her hands. The girl screamed.

"Shut up," Mia grabbed her by her neck and slammed her hard into a tombstone. She hit her head hard against the stone.

"Listen, my friend and I are just hungry. And all of you look fitting for a meal." Ashton had her famous devilish smile. She grabbed another girl and viciously bit into her neck. The warm liquid filled her mouth and she drank until the girl was dry. All the other kids watched in fear.

Mia did the same.

"Now, I'll leave one of you alive. Who will it be?" Mia asked. Ashton stared in silence watching Mia. She lunged at one boy and bit into his neck drinking his blood. A small smile appeared on Ashton's face.

"Compel her to forget our identity. It was an animal attack." Ashton ordered. Mia did as told and they fled back to the house.

They sat back in the living room watching movie. Ashton was rubbing hand sanitizer on her hands. Mia looked at Ashton.

"Werewolves? That seems random." Mia commented breaking Ashton's attention.

"Oh my god." Ashton's eyes grew wide.

"What?"

"Someone here triggered Mike's werewolf curse on purpose. Someone is plotting." Ashton said.

"Who?"

"I have so many enemies it could be anyone." She shook her head. "I wanna get to Roman, but he wants me to be Carolin and I refuse." She balled her fist in anger.

"Just go, maybe spend the night. He needs you." Mia got up from her armchair and walked upstairs leaving her to her thoughts. Ashton knew she was right. She grabbed her jacket and left.

Ashton got to Roman's house and walked around to where his window was. She jumped up and lifted the window to climb in. He was sound asleep in his king sized bed. She took off her shoes and climbed in bed with him. He turned over and looked at her.

"Ashton?" He whispered half asleep. She scooted closer to him and wrapped her arms around him.

"Roman, I'm here." She whispered. He moved closer to her, wrapping his arms around her body. He put his face in her neck.
