Chained To A Vampire (ON HOLD)

Chapter Fourteen

Groaning i pry my eyes open, my face is pressed against warm stones, blinking rapidly i try to take in my surroundings, the air is oppressing and heavy with sulphur, gritting my teeth i push to my hands and knees, wobbling as my vision wavers, closing my eyes i breathe deeply and slowly, until i my stomach doesnt feel like it's on a rollercoaster ride, opening my eyes again i look around the cave, a wierd red glow shines from down a tunnel. Pushing to my feet i fall twice before locking my legs, forcing my body to stand, feeling as weak as a kitten, stumbling along the corridor i start to hear voices, they dont sound happy.

"Why cant we just kill her?" 

"We need her powers to take over the world. It's only a matter of time before she sinks into the comforting embrace of her darker side, then she will lay waste to all who stand in our way."

"She killed 2 of us!"

"You were sloppy." I suddenly realise they are speaking in the strange language they spoke when they became embodied, but i can understand it, as well as i understand english. Something i will have to look into more later on. Each step i take the temperature increases, almost burning my skin with its intensity.

"I didnt see you defending us on the battlefield."

"You dare try to insult me, you wouldnt be here if i didnt bring you back in the first place." I creep to the tunnel exit, peeping round the rock, an alter room lays infront of me, dried blood coats a stone slab in the middle of the room, strange symbols have been carved into the stone walls along with a large red pool on the opposite side of the cave. The source of the heat that is dancing over my skin as i look at the small group, huddled round a small stone table, 2 of the demons and Eihort, scanning the room again, looking for some sort of weapon, but my vision wavers slightly, my knees buckling, i have no idea what time it is, but a weight on my back makes me guess that it is daytime, but this deep in the earth keeps the tiredness at bay, even as i wish to close my eyes and rest, to gather some power to get out of here but i know i cannot be vulnerable right now.

"Right, you two know the plan. Lets begin." Eihort commands, the demons disappear in flashes of smoke.

I dont trust them

What can we do? I have no powers left

Neither do i, taking control of your body the way i did takes more strength than normal

We can't just let him kill us

What do you suggest?

Run, try and find a way out

"You can come out now my dear." Eihort suddenly speaks, pausing me as i go to turn to run, my heart beats in my throat, panic racing through my veins, taking a deep breath i push away from the wall gathering as much strength as i can as i walk towards him, he turns, pinning me with his piercing red gaze, stopping a metre away from him i regard him cooly.

"What is the plan?" I ask, crossing my arms over my chest, my legs shaking.

"Wouldn't you like to know." He smirks, suddenly in my face, his fingers caressing my cheek and i have to bite my tongue to stop from biting him.

"I demand you tell me." I push strength that i dont feel into my voice, standing tall and proud even as my body wants to buckle under me.

"Youre in no state to issue demands to me, my love" He leans down, almost touching my lips before i slam my face into his, blood spurts from his nose and i cant stop the dark urge to taste it, my fangs sink into his neck, hot blood flows down my throat, power surges through me. My head is ripped back, my fangs slipping from his skin as he throws me down to the floor, his furious face above me as the wounds heal on their own.
