Bloody Rose

Mia

Asher was really upset about the whole Ashton and Michel situation. I tried so hard to get through to him that she was still his sister and she loved him most of anyone.

Ashton was pretty tore up too. She stayed in her room all day and never came up for air unless it was to go out and buy another few bottles to drink all day and to feed.

We were sitting on my bed after I finished my homework. Asher laid against the pillows with his hands folded behind his back. His hair was cut at the sides sort of like a military cut. The color was still the Anghelescu vibrant red. The sight of him made me melt. He was so gorgeous with whatever mood he was in.

"What are you staring at?" He asked, his green eyes holding mine. I shook my head with a flush of red in my cheeks. He leaned forward and scooped my books up in his arms. I watched as he went to sit them by my bag on the bench and was standing over me in seconds. He smiled.

"What?" I giggled. He gestured for me to fall back on the pillows. He crawled on top of me and immediately began kissing me on my lips.

"I love you so much." He repeated over and over again as he sweetly kissed my skin. I laid still, unable to breathe with this perfect man repeatedly kissing my skin.

And he knew what he was doing to me because he was smiling. Cocky bastard.

"How about you let me take control." I slammed his body against bed and straddled his waist. He focused his green eyes on me. I pulled off my shirt and then his. We stared at each other's eyes until I leaned down into passionate kiss.

We kept kissing for hours.

I found myself in the passenger seat of Asher's Hummer. He was driving in the middle of the woods to some witch's house. I didn't know why we were going but I figured it was pretty serious. So I bugged him the whole way.

"Why are we going to this lady's house? What does she have that you want? Please tell me." I practically begged. He sighed, annoyed with me.

"This witch is going to help me kill Michel, so he can leave my sister alone." Asher kept his eyes on the road, knowing that I was glaring at him.

"You know you're wrong Asher Anghelescu. She loves him whether or not she wants to admit it. And you, as her twin brother, have to accept that." I lectured. He rolled his eyes at me.

"You wouldn't know since you hate your sister." He spat. I sat up straight, blinking at him.

"That has nothing to with anything and you know it. But you're in your pissy little mood so I won't tell you that this is a waste of your time." He sighed, rolling his eyes as he continued to drive. I decided not to say anything for the rest of this stupid trip.

Asher pulled up to a cottage with a pond behind it. There was a Prius in the driveway ahead of us. I was quick to get out of the car before Asher came around to open my door. He rolled his eyes and kept walking. A short old lady answered the door.

"You must be Vivian's boy." She smiled genuinely at him. Then her warm brown eyes focused on me. "Your girlfriend is gorgeous, you Anghelescu's are very lucky." She made me blush red even though I was pissed at Asher.

"Thank you, lucky isn't even the word to describe it." I shot a glare at Asher, he lowered his eyes and sighed.

"Come in," she began walking to the dinning room table and we entered closing her door behind us. "I am Sheila Santos." I sat at the far end of the table crossing my arms glaring at Asher. He sat across from the woman with a straight face. "This man, Michelangelo, he's terrible." She began lighting her candles to shed a bit of light. Her hands were trembling. "When I was a girl, he tortured my whole village looking for Vivian. He killed my mother and aunt. And you have come to me asking for help i will assist you." She nodded. Asher folded his hands together and seemed to get interested.

"So what do you know of his weaknesses?" Asher asked.

"Well your sisters wellbeing. If he thinks she is in any danger he will drop everything and come to her rescue. I don't know for sure about the other ones but this can lure him-" I had enough of this bullshit.

"This is fucking nonsense! You're going to put Ashton in danger? Are you kidding me? Is getting revenge that important?" I snapped at Asher. His eyes threw daggers at me.

"Mia, darling if you're feeling some type of way maybe you should sit in the car." He gritted his teeth. I stood to my feet.

"Let's go Asher. This is insane Ashton will kill you and even worse Michel will kill you." I pleaded. He stared at me for a long moment, taking in my eyes and how serious I was. Sighing, he stood to his feet.

"Thank you Sheila for having us." He didn't sound happy but he wasn't going to ignore my wishes. We got in the car and drove in silence.

Asher was angry with me but I didn't care, I was worried about him and his relationship with his sister. "You're not going to talk to me?" I asked.

"I'm upset with you Mia. You acted like a brat back there."

"You're such an asshole Asher. I'm trying to help you-"

"Mia the only way you can fucking help me is if you go and kill Michel. But you're too weak and soft." He spat angrily. I was shaking with anger.

"I can't do this." I opened the door and hopped out, running away as fast as I could.

I couldn't argue with him anymore he was saying hurtful stuff I didn't want to be bothered with him. Ashton was like a sister to me, she helped teach me how to survive as a vampire and now I'm invincible. However, she never taught me how to survive the harsh words of Asher. And I was so crazy in love with him it hurt so much.

I arrived home and immediately went to my room. Asher sat at the end of my bed. He looked up at me once he heard my footsteps. I had nothing to say to him. "Get out. Get the hell out and don't ever come back." I yelled, tears streaming down my face. He just sat there and stared at me, not moving.

I was so sensitive those little words hurt so bad. "Mia please-"

"No, Asher. You said all you need to say." I stood where I was, unable to move.

"I love you so fucking much. I'm sorry I was so stupid please don't push me away. You're the only girl outside my family to accept me for the real me." He whispered. "I'm so sorry Mia. I love you so much you mean so much to me I can't take another minute of not being around you."

"Asher-" He cut me off.

"All I want you to say is you love me and you forgive me." He whispered. Asher came towards me and touched my face. I was silent, of course I love Asher but that hurt me. "Mia?"

"I love you." I whispered. He leaned down and kissed my lips.

Being with Asher Anghelescu would take so much energy and strength but it didn't matter I was so in love. And loving an Anghelescu was suicide.
