WHAT IS HE?!

Chapter 9

They never appeared but I feel like they may show up again and soon. I looked around worriedly as I listened around. Duncan's strength started fading and I felt calm. The sedative must be taking effect I should start treating his wounds. I tried to run towards my supply closet I always hide the supply of medical items in there. But an arm stop me.

I looked down as Duncan is panting and he looks at me with sad eyes. They turned to normal and I got low near him. His mouth parted a little and I felt like I knew he was gonna speak so I got close.

"Don't... leave... me..." he tried to speak out "...alone"

I looked at him confused but I sighed out and sat beside him as his breathing was heavy and he then releases me. I just staid there but when I glanced at him I saw his wounds slowly healing and so I got close to him as I touched it. It felt so weird but oh my god his body is healing all the wounds he had opened. This wounds would kill an ordinary human.

He bled so much and had suffered so much. I sat on the floor and held his hand for the time being. I don't want him grabbing me again but harder and yank me to him I am terrified of him but he defended me so much. He wouldn't hurt me. Right? He wouldn't. He hurt himself and has fought back whenever they were near me. Or was it a trick in his mind? I close my eyes gently as I took in a deep breath and yawned lowly.

~Darkness~ I felt a hand on top of my head and I slowly opened my eyes. I flinched back as I saw him awake and he looks at me with wide eyes. I gulped the lump that grew inside me as I saw him all healthy and with no wounds. He looks completely human as if nothing happened and all I can do is just stay still. Stare at him. Stare at each move he makes.

I should rethink the not scared part but I outstretch my hand to touch him but I didn't do it. He stands up and I looked down as I bite my lower lip. I gulped again when I felt him in front of me and I didn't dare look up to him. I didn't want to get him angry or see his puppy eyes. What if he is angry that I saw his true form? That I brought him here? That I tried fighting back? What if he is angry about seeing me there? What if he is pissed of with defending me?

"I won't hurt you... If I wanted to hurt you I would have done that the moment you saw what I am" he tells me lowly

I looked up at him with terror and say "Why didn't you then?"

"I felt protective of you... I will always protect you..." He flicks my forehead while saying "Dummy..."

I rubbed my head as it only stung for a few seconds and I say a bit angry "I can't believe this... What are you? I saw all that battle... Not from beginning though"

"I am a Vampire... A High Class Vampire..." he says as he stretches his back

"High class vampire... How come we never knew you guys existed?" I asked curiously as I looked at him

He removes his broken shirt and looks towards the window "We wanted a coexistence but you humans are fragile when it comes to the real reality of this world so we decided to keep it all a secret"

"So what happens know that I found out?" I asked a bit afraid

"Nothing... If you were some random person we had only two options... Erase your memory or kill you" he tells me gently as he glances my way but continued talking "But I know you... You are someone special to me so I will protect you and give you everything I can"

I stared at him confused but then I felt my face heat up as he started to walk towards me and I just felt such immense power. I was still on the floor as he was standing high and mighty and I just felt such terror. I felt so small seeing him tower over me like a mountain ready to crumble over me. My whole body started to tremble and all I can do is just look at him with wide eyes. I don't want to die. I don't want to get hurt. I have enough to do than be just looking at a man that is not human.

I gulped again and I looked down terrified. He said he will not kill me but this presence of him makes it so difficult to believe him. He is so powerful. I am so weak. Can I do? He says I am important but I can't be that important if I am not even beautiful enough for him. Not even close to all those models on TV. He must have a type right? I am not one of it. He must be just enjoying the fear emitting from inside my soul.

His hand touches my cheek and I tensed up as he made me look at him. He was on his knees looking at me with warm eyes as he kisses my forehead and I felt such confusion coming from my heart. I felt such attraction from him but I can't do anything. I felt my heart twist and turn knowing the reality of all this. I am not strong. I am not powerful.

I may be innocent but I am not virgin. I am an adult. What can I do? How will this work? How will this happen? What does the future show for us? I head banging from so many sides as I remembered that I led them to my home. I looked at him with terrified eyes. I had crosses everywhere thanks to my grandmother for being very religious.

"Don't be afraid you will never get hurt... I won't let that happen" he tells me with a sweet tone

"But what will we do know? How will we fix all this? How will I be able to live in my home know?" I asked terrified as tears streamed down my cheeks as my memories are in this home

"I won't let anybody take what is yours away... This house will be protected and all your memories will remain here as well... I will protect everything you have understood" he tells me as his eyes started to change

My eyes wide as the only word that came out was "Understood..."
