The Slayer ✔️

Ch. 9

Amy's POV

I knew that Mark must have been angry since he hadn't found out that I was a vampire until my dumbass brother spoke out loud. Now Mark was mad at me as everything I had planned was down the drain and there was nothing, I could do but hang around and give Mark some food and clothes to survive. I wasn't sure what my brother had planned or why he wanted to keep Mark around. To figure out why he wanted to keep Mark here, I made my way to the living room where I saw him standing by a window.

"Sam?" I said as I approached him. "Why?"

"Why what?"

"Why do you do this?! Just tell me why!"

"That is not your concern,"

"It is too my concern! You knew that we were in the forest, so you made your move to kidnap Mark!"

"He's a slayer Amy,"

"It doesn't matter what he is! You always do this to me,"

"I'm trying to protect you," says Sam as he turned around and glared at me. I was done trying to ignore the way he treated me. He was always overprotective and wouldn't let anyone touch me.

"From what?! Death?!" I yelled "I was so close to getting to know him better!"

"Then he would have asked for information from YOU." spoke Sam "In case you hadn't noticed Amy, he's a slayer! He's our enemy!"

"No, he's your enemy Samuel. I haven't done anything that could cause him to hunt me down,"

"He's killed so many of our kind!"

"And so, have you! You went after Colby, you KNEW he was a hunter and yet," I said still angry. "You went after his wife, you killed her and the unborn child!"

"It was instinct at the time Amy," responds Sam "I'm trying to protect you because I don't want the same thing to happen to you,"

"What's that supposed to mean?!"

"It means that no matter what, if you fall in love with a slayer it's clear that they will easily break your heart,"

"I doubt Mark is like that,"

"You haven't even known him for a day! Now your all head over heels for him!"

"Well I'm sorry if someone kept me in this damn castle for millennia!"

"Do we really need to go over this again?!"

"No, we don't!" I say "Sam, I love him!"

"You don't even know what love is! Let alone if he's your true love!"

I had had enough of this conversation and without a second thought, I turned on my heels and ran to my room as that was the only place, I could be alone since Mark was mad at me and now Sam was angry with me. This has always been my life and I never enjoyed it, I wanted something different, something that I could remember. Not something where I have to always fight to get my way. I also did not care what Sam said, Mark and I were meant to be and if it takes Mark being trapped in this castle to deal with it then I guess that's how it's meant to be. Arriving at my bedroom I pushed open the doors and entered my room. It was covered in red and black as those were my two favorite colors. I collapsed on my bed in a heap and started crying.

Mark's POV

I was still trapped in the same room that I had been in since I woke up. As I sat on the bed, I couldn't help but think back to what Amy said earlier. She said that she loved me, like actually loved me. I've only known her for a day, and she had lied to me about being a vampire. I guess she thought that if she were to tell me then I would have killed her. Which would mostly likely have been the case. But, within those 24 hours that I've known her she didn't seem like the type of person to kill a human. In fact, she was there when I arrived talking to a human being; she wanted to be like us. Like an actual human not a blood sucker, of course I couldn't say the same about her brother.
