"Tara, since tomorrow is the ball and Jake is getting you a dress, I want to ask you whether I could sleep over?" Bella asked.
I was shocked. Wasn't I too weird? "Why?" I asked. "Well you're my new bestie and you hate makeup so I figured you'd want my help." She said and wiggled her eyebrows at me.She was right. I would need her help. I had never put on makeup in my sixteen and half years of life. And besides it would be nice to have a sleep over with my new best friend."Sure, why not? So I'll see you tonight?" I asked. She nodded and hugged me before heading to the car. I turned around to leave before I realized something.I sped over to the car and Jake turned of the engine. "Okay, hand over my baby now!" I snapped. Damon and Noah stepped out and have Bella to me.I shot them a dirty look and they looked at me sheepishly. "It's just that she's so cut and I wanna hug and cuddle her forever." Noah said."You'll see her after tWhen I woke up, it was eerily quiet. It was so quiet that I lay on the hard and cold surface and decided not to open my eyes.I could feel something drying on the left side of my face. I stayed as rigid as I could be until I was ready to open my eyes.When I did, I saw nothing. Yes, nothing. There was no light. There was darkness everywhere. I tried to lift my hands to my face but I froze when I heard the rattle of chains.It was then that I realized that I was chained to the ground. Even with my heightened senses I couldn't see anything. I tried getting the chains of but I couldn't.As hot tears of fear and frustration rolled down my face I tried to contact Jake. I groaned in pain as I was met with a sharp pain in my head.Someone was blocking the link. A very powerful someone. There was no need in trying. I had to save my energy or what was left of it since I hadn't fed.I didn't know where I was or who had taken me. The lat th
I didn't know how long I had been here. I hadn't seen the Masked Monster in a while.I hadn't fed in a while and I was hungry. That means it had been a week or more. It didn't matter.All I could see were her blue eyes. Even when I closed my eyes they haunted me. I had killed a child.A poor innocent child. I had been crying so much that the top of my dress was sticky with blood. What a freak!! I was the only supernatural who had blood for tears.I felt so alone and dead inside. I could hear all the judging voices. If I ever got out of here, I would see their faces filled with disgust.I felt like I was going insane. Then I smelt something. It smelled like death. Then I heard his footsteps.Soft and calculated. I knew it was him. The Masked Monster. "Hello, Little Tara,missed me?" He asked I'm a sickly voice.The lights suddenly came on and I had to close my eyes at the brightness. After I had adjusted I looked at him.
I've lost hope. Now all I feel is this black hole in my heart. Now one cares about me. I've been here for a long while now.I keep going back to the arena. I have cuts and wounds everywhere. Sometimes the crowd participated and beat me up.As usual, i smelt death. Then I heard his cold and calculated footsteps. A cold shiver went down my spine.I was scared. Yes, he had managed to get me terrified and insane. On some days he injected me with drugs.I would be high and suddenly pain would pierce my pleasure induced world. It was then that I would know that I was in the arena.Sometimes, I would be alone in the dark and people would start beating me. They drew blood from me almost everyday.Sometimes I was chained to a pole and everyone was allowed to beat me. I could feel something surfacing. Like a hidden memory.It haunted me in my sleep. I could hear the voices in my head, telling me to die and that I was worthless.
The man carried me and placed me on a bed in the small room. He gave me water and a glass of blood.I drank it without hesitation. I groaned as my wounds slowly healed. I felt so much better and drank until the last drop."So who are you and what happened to you?" He asked. There were about six guys surrounding me.Some were smoking. They all had tattoos all over their bodies and some had piercings. They had crazy hairstyles that looked so cool.I wanted to do something crazy. Maybe get a few piercings and tattoos and then die my hair any colour.I told them everything. I didn't know the but it didn't matter. Their eyes softened as I cried blood. I told them how it started. From the day I was turned until the day I was taken.They allowed me to show and brought me a large shirt and boxers. The shirt ended mid thigh but who cares.They had already seen me naked. "So do you want to go back?" Drew asked. They all stared at
It was morning but there was no light in my room. I had used my powers to change the curtains into black.My room was filled with smoke and I was blasting music from my phone. I was so happy and high.I had used up all my bags. Turns out there was a wine cellar in the basement so I grabbed a few bottles.Now I lay on the floor staring at the ceiling and giggling. I heard the door open and close after a few footsteps.But I didn't care. I wasn't in the right mind frame. I was tired of living like this but now I was going to rebel.I was going to stop taking people's shit. I was gonna live my life the way I wanted it and no one was gonna stop me.My bedroom door opened and I heard footsteps. I heard someone gasp as another person broke into tears but i didn't care.I felt strong arms grab me and raise me from the floor but I couldn't stand so the person carried me.I wasn't scared. I had been through worse. I co
Tara's POVIt's been a week now and I'm getting ready for school. I have to go. When I graduate I will be given the choice to leave and go to the human world.If I don't, I'm stuck here forever. He problem is I need drugs. My head hurts. I haven't slept in a while.During the day, they take shifts but every night Jake is here. I pretend to sleep but I open my eyes once he does.I thought vampires didn't get sick but u was wrong. The only thing difference between us and humans is that we heal faster, drink blood, can't die unless it's a stake and have heightened senses.The garlic and the holy water was all fake. And we do have a reflection. We also need sleep just not as much as humans.But I hadn't slept in a few days and I was pretty dizzy. This wasn't a wound so I wasn't healing. I needed drugs. When I had a sniff, the nightmares disappeared. "Tara, are you done?" T called from downstairs.I didn't bother answer
"Oh, uhm. It's nice to meet you Amelia but don't call me princess. Just Tara will do." I said politely."Okay, princess Tara." She responded and smiled at me as I rolled my eyes. Then she laughed. She sounded wonderful.I couldn't help but join in. Her laughter was so contagious. "When Jake comes, tell him I'm in my room, okay?" I asked.She nodded and turned to do whatever she was doing. I kissed Bella's forehead before leaving Amelia seemed nice.She had brown short hair and deep green eyes. She had a babyish face that made her look cute.She seemed lethal and dangerous yet bubbly and warm. I wish I could be like that. But I can't. I don't wanna get hurt anymore. I don't care anymore.I cleared my thoughts as I headed to my room. I closed the door behind me and lay on the bed staring at the ceiling.I was thinking of ways to torture my sire. If he hadn't changed me, I wouldn't be here. I wouldn't have met the Masked Mo
Jake's POVI grabbed her waist and kissed her hard. If she was surprised then she didn't show it.She kissed back and wrapped her arms around me. It felt so good. Her lips felt so warm and soft.And as she tugged on my hair I groaned into her mouth before pulling away. She looked so flushed and flustered."When you come back everything will change. Until then stay away from any males. You're mine and only mine." I said possessively.I was turned of pushing her away because of the guilt I felt. I was going to find out who the Masked Monster was.Tara kept mentioning it every time she had a nightmare. So I figured he caused it.Before she could say anything, I broke out of my reverie and ran out of the airport and into my car.I drove so fast that I thought I would get into an accident. I had to leave. If I didn't I would atop her from leaving.She's my mate. I don't want her to leave me. I'm not going to
