Where The Blood Lies

Chapter 17: Lost and Found

"You know, I understand why Beca wants to play with you all the time. You look just so delicious like that." Cheryl said with a grimy grin on her face. Chloe merely stared at her with a glare as she couldn't talk due to a gag that was forced in her mouth. Luke chuckled as he walked into the big warehouse. "Cheryl please don't tease our guest, she is after all our ticket into getting my daughter back." Cheryl huffed lowly as she rolled her eyes with jealously, moving away from Chloe. Luke now stepped before her with a proud smile, bending down to take Chloe's gag from her mouth. Chloe chose not to say anything as she just stared at him with a vicious glare. "Well I'm assuming my Becky told you all about me and our little adventures we used to have, so let's cut to the chase shall we? I want her back and I don't care who I have to hurt to have her beside me once more. I know she's taken quite a liking to you, she always did like to play with humans more than her own kind. So don't worry I won't hurt you...much." Chloe chuckled lowly making Luke frown in confusion. "It doesn't matter what you do to me, as long as Beca stays far away from an asshole like you." Luke chuckled as he looked at Chloe with a surprised smile. "Well, well, well, a feisty one we have here miss Cheryl. I guess not feisty enough for Beca to actually consider to turn you. I wonder why she hasn't already? Considering she treats you like an object that's bound to be broken any passing moment." Chloe stayed silent as she looked away from Luke in anger. Luke hummed thoughtfully as he studied the red head. "You want her to turn you, don't you? Humans are so gullible nowadays, look at you. Willing to risk your life for a blood thirsty vampire, a monster." Chloe glared back up at him with fury in her eyes. "Beca is not a monster...you are." Luke growled angrily as he put Chloe's gag back in her mouth with small struggles from Chloe and turned back towards Cheryl. "Miss Cheryl please see to it that our guest is comfortable and stays put, until my Becky makes it here. I'm sure she will be arriving any moment now." Cheryl laughed as she nodded in obedience, standing beside Chloe.

Beca texted Chloe a good morning text and deemed it weird that Chloe didn't text back right away, like she usually does. Her stomach fell for a minute in fear, but shook her head at herself, thinking Chloe must have gotten busy pretty quickly at the hospital for her not to text her back right away. She sighed as she put her coffee mug in the microwave to heat up her daily dosage of warm blood. As Beca barley got her mug out of the microwave loud knocks started to amit from the front door quickly. Beca frowned in confusion as she used her speed to get there quickly. Beca swung open the door to see a disheveled Aubrey behind it. "Aubrey? What are you doing here?" Beca asked her in utter confusion. Aubrey glared at her as she pushed Beca aside roughly, squeezing inside the doorway. "Where is she Mitchell?!" Aubrey shouted loudly as she looked around the house in panic. Beca scoffed as she crossed her arms at Aubrey's rudeness. "Where's who? Chloe?" Aubrey sighed in frustration as she turned back around towards Beca in a huff. "Yes Chloe! What other redhead would I be talking about!" Beca uncrossed her arms as she looked at Aubrey like she was crazy. "Ok...well she's obviously not here, so she has to be at work. Which you should be at by the way." Aubrey ran her hand in her hair in worry as tears formed in her eyes. "That's what I'm trying to tell you, she's not at work! I woke up this morning and I thought at first she left early to get our morning coffee. So I waited and she didn't come back, so I then thought maybe she went to work without me. Which is not like her at all by the way, so I went to work and Miss Rose told me she never came in this morning. So either you kidnapped her or someone else did!" Beca felt like her whole body shut down. "Oh no..." Aubrey's eyes widened as she walked towards Beca in worry. "Oh no? What do you mean oh no?" Beca shook her head as she grabbed her leather jacket form the coat hanger and put it on in a hurry. "Listen Aubrey, I need you to go to work and do what you normally do-" Aubrey shook her head in immediate protest. "No! Are you kidding me?! My best friend is missing and you're telling me you know what happened to her! Beca if you don't tell me what's going on right now I swear I'll-" Beca groaned in stress as she walked up to Aubrey and looked into her eyes intensely. "Go to work, everything is going to be fine." Aubrey stared back at Beca blankly for a moment, blinked her eyes once and left without another word. Beca sighed in relief as she grabbed her motorcycle keys and rushed out the door. All she knows is that Luke is going to die today.
