He pulled out a gun from his pants and smirked at me. I was the closest to him so I expected him to just shoot me and get it over with but instead he swung to the left and fired. Marie.
I slammed into her trying not to harm her in the process. I yelped as the bullet dug into my own left shoulder. I growled at my father and lunged at him.
He reacted quicker than expected but not fast enough before I bit down on his wrist. He roared something that definitely wasn't human before trying to shake me off. He still had hold of the gun with his finger on the trigger but I was trying my hardest to keep it pointed away from everybody.
He kicked me in the throat and I couldn't hold on anymore. I fell to the ground choking as he pointed the gun at my new family. Specifically at-
"Now Dove, are you going to cooperate or is your dear mate going to get it?" He asked and smiled at me. Fuck. Shit. Ass. What am I supposed to do?!
"Dove don't do an-" Axton started before my father fired. It was like slow motion as the bullet went straight through his chest. He barely flinched before falling to his knees.
I lost all control then and was only slightly aware that my father was writhing beneath me. It wasn't until I was forcefully pulled off of him by a pair of familiar arms that I got back to reality.
Axton was huffing and puffing as he tried to hold my large body. He was still bleeding and wounded. The other vampires had left when I got shot since they hadn't had time to drink anything.
I stopped struggling and spun around to face him. He fell back again, looking very pale. I panicked as I shifted back into human form.
"Axton! Are you going to be okay?" I cried as I tried to get him to say something. It was a large bullet but vampires were hard to kill!
"He hasn't eaten anything he needs for 3 days. He's probably not healing properly." Marie said as she rushed over to us.
He needed blood and I wasn't letting him take anybodies but mine.
"Marie, take Reese inside." I said calmly.
"Dove no! You-" I cut her off even as she picked the thought from my head.
"He needs it right? Nobody else will be giving it to him but me okay?" I said and Marie nodded before running off with the pack and Reese.
"Um...hey. So here goes nothing," I said to Axton who seemed a bit out of it. I let my claws burst through my fingers before slicing a line down the middle of my forearm.
"Dove no," Axton said firmly as I put my claws away.
"Axton yes! You either drink my blood now or I will rip my self to shreds until you do!" I whimpered back at him before I moved his head and put it in my lap. I squeezed the base of my arm and swallowed the pain as blood dripped onto his face. One drop landed directly on his lips and his eyes turned pitch black. He glanced at me once more before licking my blood off of his lip.
"Oh fuck," he breathed before grabbing my arm and bringing it down to his mouth.
"There you go," I said and pet his head. I wouldn't let him take too much and I was strong enough to fight him off if he lost control. I bit my lip to keep from crying out as he used his fangs to bite down harder. "Axton. That's enough." I whispered right into his ear. He took one last swallow before I heard his fangs retract and he put his head back down.
"Mmmmmm," he moaned and I started to laugh. I noticed my arm was paler than before but i didn't feel any negative effects, plus I would heal in a week or so.
"Are you sure you're okay?" Axton asked me. I nodded and reached over to grab a scrap of my ripped clothing from when I shifted to wipe the blood off of his face. I grabbed a bigger scrap and tied it around the cut so nobody would see it while it healed.
"Better?" I asked him as we both stood up. He threw his arm around my shoulder and gave me a dazzling smile.
"Never more so," he cooed and we started walking towards the house.
"Both of you are okay!" Everybody swarmed us when we got inside. Marie glared at Axton since he had a dopey grin on his face.
"Axton looks like he just won the lottery! What did you do Dove?" Xander asked with a wink. I blushed and lifted my arm up slightly. The vampires suddenly took a quick breath in and let out variations of the word 'oh'
"Willingly?" Esmerelda asked narrowing her eyes at her son.
"Yes! I even sliced myself," I said quickly turning my fingers to claws and back.
"Since when can you do that?!" Marie asked and threw her hands up in the air before storming away. What was that about?
"So Dove. You have some explaining to do."
