Hunted

Chapter Thriteen

  Chapter Thirteen

 'Darius' I said as I knocked softly on the hard oak door.

'Come in Elizabeth' He called, I opened the door and stepped into his room, most of it was green and white, very earthy, exactly as I imagined it would be like.

 'How are you feeling Darius' I said, I couldn't bring myself to meet his eyes, I nearly killed him, granted he was possessed, but I still nearly killed him.

  'Great actually, Lucern healed me,' He said smiling warmly at me, 'Don't blame yourself, you did what you had to do Elizabeth'

  'I know that' I whispered, walking over to sit beside him on the bed 'Do you have any idea who did this?' I asked

  'I believe it to be a very powerful vampire' he said putting his arm around me, causing me to snuggle into his warmth 'He has done things like this before, he possesses someone to take control of people that he wants'

   'Why?' I asked, looking up into his pale face

   'Power obviously' He answered 'I am a very powerful witch, if he managed to possess and control me, then he can also control my power'

  'I see' I said laying my head on his chest, just inches away from his long, silky red hair. I reached a hand out to stroke it.

 'Where's Lucern' He asked

 'He had to go, said he needed to find who was behind this' I whispered into his chest.

 His hand reached up to cup my chin, tilting my face up toward him, I instictivly closed my eyes, and parted my lips.

What is it with these guys and them getting though my defences?

Your easy, that's probably it

Woah, tad harsh

His lips were suddenly on mine, knocking the breath out of me, causing me to gasp in pleasure. He pulled me ontop of him, so that I was straddling him, the kiss became more urgent, more passionate, and messy. Our teeth scraped, my fangs extended cutting his lip, causing blood to pour into our mouths, making me moan in pleasure. The kiss was messy, but amazing. He pulled away, causing me to growl in protest.

  He grinned up at me, blood dribbling down the corner of his mouth, making me lean forward and lick it off, rewarding me a sigh of pleasure from Darius.

 'That was...'I said struggling to find the right word.

  'Yeah' he agreed, I pulled myself off him and swayed unsteadily on my feet, I regained my balance, and stared warmly down at him.

  'Well, this complicates things' I commented

  'It does not' He argued 'It is simple, you like Lucern and you like Me, simple'

  'Yes, because that's simple'

   'It is, what is not simple, is our community being hunted by those vampires'

 'What a way to make a girl feel guilty' I huffed.

'What can I say? It's a gift' he teased, hugging me from behind.

 Sluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuut

Shut up, i'm not a slut, it's not like I am exclusive with either of them, I hardly know either of them anyway

 Like I said, Sluuuuuuuuuuuuut

Shut up

I pulled myself out of the circle of his arms, and turned to face him, reaching up on tiptoes I lightly kissed him.

 'I should go' I whispered into his lips 'Thanks for all your help today'

 'No problem' he breathed.

 I grinned up at him and sprinted out of the house, it was nice having vampiric speed, I was in my house in a couple of minutes.

 'Mum!' I called, dumping my bag and coat in the hall. The house was eerily silent, my gut was telling me something was wrong. I centred myself and tried to use my baser senses, every sound in the house heightened, became more defined, I could see dust motes in the air, defined and round, all different shapes. If I wasn't so worried, i'd have though this was super cool.

  I naturally assumed a fighting stance, listening intently to the house. I could hear the rustle of trees, but the house was silent.

Vampire

Shit, what the hell am I meant to do?

Lucern and Darius, you have links with them, call them, with your mind

I centred myself again, trying to concentrate on the house aswell as calling to Darius and Lucern.

 Lucern, Darius, I need you. Theres a vampire in my house, I need help.

i'll be there soon, don't panic Lucern called

I'm on my way Darius said.

I moved silently through the house, locating any signs of movement, I sniffed the air and smelt a sweet perfume from upstairs, I flowed easily up the house, without making a noise, I found the scent to lead toward my bedroom. That was when I heard a hiss from behind me. That was when the whole world moved in slow motion. I screamed as the a hard, sharp object hit my head, causing my vision to swim and my legs to give way. I only had one thought before I blacked out.
