Becoming Wolf - Sequel to 'Staying Human'

Chapter Four

Winston dragged one of the women towards the cellar and Jay dragged the other. As Winston descended down the steps, the woman he was dragging attempted to grab on to anything she could. She did not want to go down there; her efforts were in vain though, he was far too strong. Minutes ago she had pleaded with him to let her go but Winston never answered her; instead he had held her against the wall and bit her, again and again and he had moaned out loud as he sucked on her blood.

She screamed and shouted he was insane as he bit her and asked what kind of a madman would want to drink blood.

Winston was insulted, he never would have described himself as a madman.

It was then he showed her his vampire face and again she screamed again as his eyes turned black, his teeth elongated and his skin became transparent.

He was in ecstasy; he loved it when they screamed.

"What are you?" She whimpered.

Winston laughed, he loved this game; he loved this particular question. After he bit them, they always asked him the same question. It did not matter if they were male or female, in all the years he had been a vampire; they always asked him. He pressed her further into the wall, pushed his knee between her thighs and began to lick her neck. She could not fight him as his hands were holding her wrists; her arms held eagle spread.

"What do I look like?" He said as he faced her.

He at her smiled as he said it, flashing his sharp teeth at her.

To her it was not a smile; it was more of a sneer. She now realised the smile he had given her at the bar was actually sneer. She did not answer him, because if she did it would mean it was true. He was not human, he looked evil; he looked just like a monster.

She still fought against him though as he carried her down the steps. When she saw the woman chained to the wall she began to beg and again she said the same sentence that everyone said to Winston, when they found themselves in his cellar.

"Please let me go, I won't tell anyone."

He shook his head and snarled at her.

"Aren't you enjoying the party?" Winston asked the now sobbing woman.

"Well we are," Jay laughed. "We are enjoying it very, very much." He was sitting at the far end of the cellar with the other girl lying in between his legs. She was dead though, as Jay, was not like his brother and he could not execute such control when he fed. His brother could keep them alive for hours, even months, while he bit and fed from them but Jay always got caught up in the moment and when he was hungry they were dead within minutes.

"This is not a party. I want to go home."

Winston laughed at her.

"Please, let me go home," she pleaded with Winston again as she pushed against his chest in a desperate bid to free herself from his grasp.

Winston placed his nose into her neck and deeply inhaled and she kicked and fought against him as he bit into her neck but just like the last three times, all her efforts were in vain. He seemed to enjoy himself more when she struggled against him and especially so when she screamed.

Winston grabbed her hand and spun her around and as he did he began to hum a tune that she did not recognise and stepped from side to side.

"See, it is a party. We are dancing and there is music," he chimed as Jay began to hum along with him while he stroked the dead girl's hair that was lying in his lap.

She snatched her hands away from Winston and took several steps backwards.

"What is your name again, I was not listening when you told me." Winston asked her.
