[Completed] Riley Hayes | A Vampire Novel - Book I

Chapter 20 - drunken adventure

I was bored. God, I was so bored! I had unpacked my bags together with Leuca and he had left to inform Anthony of the whereabouts of the kitchen so Anthony could make me some food.

Leuca wasn't happy I haven't gained that much weight during the past month. Maybe my workouts have been part of the reason, he didn't know. I wasn't getting enough chocolate and pizza, that's the reason!   But unfortunately, it is Anthony that gets punished for my lack of weight gain so I had been trying to eat every single thing he gave me.

Leuca wouldn't return to the room because he would have dinner with Althea and he would discuss business things with her. Probably about the witches that supposedly are helping humans and how they're going to solve it.

He said he would make sure Anthony would deliver my food tonight to the room. He added a joke about room service, knowing I hated being alone and locked up. He did say I was to stay in the room, but what's fun about that?

I started snooping around after staring at the wall for an hour and looking at the paintings. I then started to pull open some cabinets and was surprised when I found a mini-fridge in one of the lower cabinets. I made an ooh sound as I opened it and saw many bottles of rose wine and white wine. Rose was my favorite! There were five bottles each, yes, I haven't drunk in months!

I used to drink with Ryan and my friends when we found alcohol during raids, we were supposed to turn it all in, but it was way more fun to keep it for ourselves. I wondered for a split moment if Leuca would mind but I quickly pushed that thought from my mind, who cares? He was screwing that witch bitch anyway.

I used the corkscrew I found in a drawer to pop the first bottle and didn't bother to grab one of the fancy glasses hanging in a glass cupboard. Just drank it straight from the bottle.

I took big gulps and loved the taste of this one, this was some good wine. I think I was over halfway when I decided it was boring to drink by myself and I wanted to see Sam. Maybe she would like to drink with me. So I grabbed one of our empty bags and stuffed the remaining 9 bottles in it. There also was some whiskey, surely for Leuca, but I took two bottles of that as well.

I grabbed the doorknob and twisted it, "what?" why wasn't it opening? Did Leuca lock me up?! I was grumbling and wanting to scream but who does he think I am? I'm a damn huntress as if I wouldn't know how to pick a lock.

I grabbed a paperclip from the desk area and unfolded it until it was straight. I also folded another one into an L shape. I was grumbling with my tongue hanging out of my mouth as I was pushing and twisting the paper, clips until it clicked. Boom, a bit tipsy and still managing to pick a lock in maybe a minute or two.

I proudly opened the door and poked my head out, the coast was clear. I sneakily walked out of the room and I had heard the humans were in the back so I'd start there.

I wasn't even halfway there when a door opened and a woman half nakedly walked out. Her face was flushed red, her dark hair was messy and she looked embarrassed seeing me. "Farewell, darling..." It was Wyatt who waves her off while leaning against the door.

His blond long hair hangs loose and he was only wearing his boxers. God, why did they all look so good? It wasn't fair! "Don't look at me like that, firecracker, or I'll show you what I did with her..." He joked and winked.

"Yeah no thank you, I don't think Leuca would appreciate that very much." I casually joked back while the woman already scurried off. Vampires are such sluts it's unbelievable.

He laughed and nodded, "I'm sure he wouldn't..." He sniffed the air and eyed me up and down, "by the way, what are you up to? I can smell alcohol coming from you... Go back to your master's room."
