Her heart hammered in her chest as she took in the men that stood in front of her, she had never felt this kind of fear before, it chilled her bones and made her go stiff as she gripped the steering with all her strength. From her rear-view mirror she could see a smaller group behind the car, standing a good feet from the car, all their eyes the same, blood red. She started to regret leaving the house and driving to an unknown area, and she forgot to grab her phone before leaving. This could be the end for her.The passenger suddenly opened and slammed shut again. Emiliana whipped her head to her right and came face to face with no other than Jake.
"Are you okay?" His wide eyes scanned her body looking for any injury. She stared at him, her mind in a mix of relief and shock. She was also confused about how he had got there, and also how he had opened the door because she could remember locking them. And he looked different this time as she looked at him speechless, his eyes held so much anger but also a bit of fear.
"Emiliana" he grabbed her face in his hands. "Stay inside the car and don't come out. No matter what happens. Understand?" She remained mute as she starred at him unable to utter any word so she just nodded. He sighed deeply and leaned forward to place a long kiss on her forehead.
"I will never let anything happen to you." With those final words he made his way out of the car and went to stand in front. He turned back slightly to give her a small smile before he turned back at the men. "If you want her, then you have to go through me first." His blood red eyes stared fiercely at the intruders.
Emiliana wasn't sure of what had happened but in what seemed like a second later, one of the men landed on the bonnet of the car in a thud, his neck twisted in an awkward angle while Jake had another in a tight grip by the neck and without flinching he thrust his hand into the man's chest and tore out his heart. If she was afraid before, now she was beyond terrified. How was all this even possible, the speed, the strength, her mind was going blank with explanations to what was happening. Her eyes went to the man who laid motionless on the bonnet, he looked really buff and his eyes were shut close. Her eyes moved down to his mouth and she let out a gasp, his slightly opened mouth showed part of his dentition and those weren't normal teeth. Fangs. He had fangs.
Another movement caught her eyes, she looked back on the road, she couldn't fully see what was going on but she saw bodies dropping and Jake moving so quickly, too fast for the human eye. Was he one of them. Her thoughts were interrupted by a man landing on the bonnet in a crouch, he stood upright as his eyes stalked her. With a light tap on the glass it shattered into pieces earning a scream from her. He threw her an evil smile as his hand reach in to grab her, his fingers had barely grabbed her before in a flash he was off the car and his twisted body landing in a loud heap far behind the car. She looked up to stare at a pair of blood red eyes looking at her. But this set of eyes didn't belong to one of the men but Jake, though this looked nothing like the Jake she knew. He had an animalistic look on his face, his hands dripping in blood and various bruises and gashes on his body which appeared to be healing already. But the feature that stood out to her was a brief view of his fangs she saw before he turned back to face the incoming men. She had her answer now. Jake was really one of them. A vampire.
12:00am
It hit her like a brick-wall, her heart stopped beating, and her whole body felt like she was on fire. She threw her head back as the pain spread through out her whole body, she didn't know or understand what was happening to her but the pain was excruciating and it made her eyes roll back. Her back arched in an odd way as the pain shot through her spine making her bend over the steering her eyes shutting in pain. A wild piercing scream sounded in her ears and it shook the whole car, making all those who were around stop abruptly. As the screaming stopped, Emiliana realized she was the source of the sound. Her throat started to burn up and she clawed at it willing for it to stop, a certain hunger consumed her body making her go wild with want to satiate it, and this was not a hunger for food. A body landed on the passenger seat and falling over on her lap. its neck dripping with blood.
