My deadly love ~ { l.f. + m.h. }

Chapter forty five

Two months has passed since Lucas's funeral. Everyone was trying to grieve in their own ways. Maya dealt with Lucas's death the hardest. Maya would go to parties every night. She would get drunk and try to forget all her problems. When she got home afterwards she would cry all over again. Maya was a complete mess without him. Maya felt like she was on the edge and one slight push would send her into the darkness. Maya was a completely different person with Lucas gone.

She would lash out at people if they got too close. She would push everyone away and not talk to anyone. Riley couldn't help but cry watching her best friend fall apart.

She was looking through her grimoires for any resurrection spells. She didn't tell Maya or Lucas's siblings about this because she didn't want to get their hopes up. Riley was afraid that if she didn't find a solution soon she would lose her best friend forever.

Maya made one of her many trips to Lucas's grave. She would go there often to talk to him about anything or to yell at him for leaving her all alone. They buried lucas's body in the Friar crypt. Lucas's grave was placed in front of a beautiful glass painted window. His tombstone was made out of white marble. His name and the date of his birth and death were engraved with beautiful cursive writing. She would trace her hands over the letters imagining it was Lucas's hand was touching her back.

"I can't believe you're gone. How am I supposed to move on without you? You were supposed to be forever. You promised you wouldn't leave me. I try to move on but I can't Lucas. I can't do this without you. Every time I get up in the morning I feel like I can't breath. Every day I feel guilt and sadness that I couldn't save you. This life is unbearable for me. I try to be strong but I'm weak. I can't take this never ending pain anymore. I just want everything to be gone." She slid down the wall crying against her arms. Her body shook with her gut wrenching sobs.

"I'm sorry for doing this." She whispered before closing her eyes and shutting off her humanity. When Maya opened her eyes she felt nothing. She rose up from the floor with a blank expression on her face. She walked into the woods heading home.

When Maya made it back she went into her room to pack her things. She packed everything as quickly as possible not wanting to be in that room any longer than she had to.

She didn't take a second glance and left the house. She threw her bag in the backseat and pulled out of the driveway. She emptied the blood bag rolling down the window so she could throw it out. She drove aimlessly not looking for a destination.

She stopped at the mall and bought herself some new clothes without paying for anything. She was so glad that she could compel people to do whatever the fuck she wanted.

She stopped at an apartment. She compelled the landlord to give her the best apartment in the building. When the landlord went into the room she bit into the guy's neck sucking the blood out of him. When she drained him she shoved the guy in the storage closet. She smirked as she swung the keys to go to her apartment.

The apartment was spacious. The decor was white, black, and gray. The floorboards were spotless. The living room had a perfect view of the skyline. Maya made her way to her room. She got dressed for her night out. She wore a black leather halter top dress with a square cutout in the back. Her cleavage was heavily exposed. She wore black ankle boots that made her a few inches tall. She wore a smokey eye with red lipstick. She ruffled her hair and smirked at herself in the mirror before stepping out.

She heard the pounding music outside of the club. She walked inside. There was a crowd full of dancing people on the dance floor. So many people to feed on. She wanted to get buzzed first so she took a whole bottle of bourbon. The bartender made no protests since he was compelled to keep his damn mouth shut.

She swallowed half the bottle before making her way to the dance floor. She knew that she had all the guy's attention as she swayed her hips to the raunchy beat. She smirked when she saw a guy come to dance with her. It was like leading a mouse to a trap. Maya giggled wrapping her arms around the guy. The guy held her hips as they continued to sway to the music.

Things escalated quickly and they made their way to the bathroom. Maya didn't feel anything as the guy continued to make out with her. Maya didn't let things get too far and she pushed the guy roughly against the wall. The guy laughed in amusement trying to get out of her hold but Maya's strength was overpowering.

Maya's eyes turned yellow and her fangs elongated from her mouth. Before the guy could react Maya bit into his carotid artery sucking the blood out of him. The guy tried to fight her off but it was a losing battle. The guy's arms were now limp and his body slackened against the wall. Maya didn't hear any heartbeats so the guy was dead. She shrugged wiping the blood off her mouth with his shirt. She locked him in one of the stalls before leaving the bathroom.
