The music was so loud that I had to cover my ears my head began to spin. Sus came near me and was putting her hand on my back in supporting me from my pain. I heard too many voices, too much music, too much screaming, even my vision began to blur. But soon everything came normal again. My hearing adapted slowly by all voices.
-"Hey are you ok baby?" Sus asked me with worry voice, but still, it was too loud for my ears her voice gave pain to my head.
-" Uh, y..es can you...umm just speak a little bit quieter?" I was breathing quickly and hard, my hands became sweaty and they were shaking so I made them into a fist and kept all my strength to keep myself quietly. I tried to keep them steady on a table, my lowered head looked at people; there weren't many of them by this empty table in a corner of the club, but still, some looked, at me strangely. I lowered my head and closed my eyes. Then I opened it, but so many lights made me feel dizzy and some smokes began to b
I mixed my cola with Jack Daniels brandy and drank all glass in one shot. -"You are really thirsty, girl!" Sus laughed she was already tipsy.-"Common, let's go dancing." She impatiently tried to raise me from my seat in taking my palm but I just shook my head from one side to another in saying no with my body language, but I smiled at her with apologizing eyes.-"You are so boring, and you?" She asked for Maria with her questioning gaze.-"I want to talk with Maggie and this song isn't for me maybe on another dance ok?" Sus rolled her eyes with annoyance at both of us and looked at his brother."-Oh it is just you left, it looks that I'm on my own, your loss losers.", She showed to us her tongue like she would be a small kid but YoYo blew rudely his smokes to her sister and in response, she showed him a middle finger. Then they are tipsy they all the time-fighting. Sus went dancing alone, but very soon some guys came near her and danced with her.
-"You took drugs?" He asked me carefully but his eyes never left my neck. It traveled from my neck to my face and was exploring it with his dark from lust eyes. The little wildish smile could easily be seen in the corner of his lips. I don't know why his gaze was so deep and he didn't speak for a moment but I liked the way he looked at me. His fingers lifted up my chin that he could look better into my eyes. His thumb touched my lips. And my breathing quickened from the way he touched, the way he breathed into my face.-"Yes is it bad?" I asked him innocently in a whisper like that would be our little naughty secret. My question was more flirting and I didn't expect his answer which would judge me or he would be disappointed with me. I knew he didn't care about my health, my well-being and it wasn't important that he didn't care, there weren't any emotions only lust between us. It was enough for me. It was more than I ever had. I needed to feel that somebody like him wants me
-"Let me go". I tried to free myself "Why you had to kill him? he didn't do anything bad." I took another hand and put it on my wrist in trying to free myself but he even didn't move at least an inch from my squirming. His gaze was like I was a madwoman and he just looked what nonsense I will say to him. "- How you managed to escape from me?" He only asked me if my question was an unimportant thing to discuss and only his was important. His gaze was exploring all emotions I had on my face, but he couldn't get any answers to it because I didn't know why his brainwashing didn't work on me and I was glad that it didn't work. -"Don't answer me with another question. You killed him!" I screamed at him with all my courage. He grabbed with one hand through my short hair from my back and pulled closer my head to him that I could easily feel his breathed air on my face. His hand was keeping me strongly but not that it would hurt me. With another hand, he t
Before 16 YearsJack's point of view:He was hiding in a dirty apartment with a cross at his hand if that would save him. Maybe he thought that I am a devil I wouldn't be surprised by his reaction.He hadn't anywhere to hide anymore it was easy to track him, his smell is now easily recognizable. The only thing that protects him is the brown doors. I can't cross them without a permit, without his invitation, but it is ok I can wait. He was hiding for almost a week and all week I didn't see Lilliana. I have many occasions to kill him and go to her but I didn't do that. I waited and waited and avoided killing him in knowing that would nobody stop me from going to her anymore. And he was my stupid pretext to keep myself away from her. But his living made every minute annoying for me too. I couldn't be fully satisfied anymore, I killed three times more and fed myself more than usual but I still was angry more than ever, I drank blood like a madman. I wouldn'
-"It was a mistake, I shouldn't be here" I tried to convince both of us. But my words only made me angry. I was fighting with myself, I did what I wanted but what was forbidden for me. Do Vince's demons are playing to me? Did they send Lilliana to torture me? Or was it his God's bad joke?" But I had to see you that you are safe, both of you." I continued and brushed my hair with my fingers. Then I looked to the doors where there was A glass from where I could easily see a kid who was playing with some toys. She looked happy. I couldn't smell her but it is normal, kids are strange they have a smell but all the time it is different, it is changing too quickly. Maybe her smell is somehow weak. Kids are still a puzzle to us. - "No please stay, I need you." She looked at me with her desperate eyes. She was so frightened what she was afraid. Does she afraid of me? she said that she needs me it was like words said by a sirene. she needs me...I could listen to those words agai
Before 16 years Jack's point of view: She slowly closed the doors. Her eyes never left mine when I passed her while her hands were holding the door, she was looking from my feet to my head. I smiled and bowed my head in not wanting to stare at her and make her be shy I liked how she looked at me. Was she dressing me off with her eyes? Her cheeks were lightly rosy and I don't think it was from crying. Her eyes burned my skin. I can't lie about this feeling, it felt good, those eyes checking me somehow made me feel uncomfortable in my pants. I had to put my hands in my pocket in trying to hide what is inappropriate for a young lady like Lilliana Storm. Do human emotions all the time are changing so quickly? She was so depressed before she saw me and now she looks calm and excited. She gulped hard her saliva and I began to love her strange habit to do it when she was nervous. I can't believe that I was at her house does she understand what mistakes she is doing. S
After 16 years: Maggie's point of view: -"I don't believe in you." I laughed hysterically. He just tries to scare me, that he could rule my life with that stupid mind of him to marry a stranger. This is just another manipulation of his crazy thoughts. He loved her, he is with a cold attitude, he doesn't understand humans, he acts sometimes as an asshole but he would never hurt anybody about he cares especially my mother, he talked about her like she would be a goddess to him. "You loved her". I tried to convince myself in a whisper as well as him if I would know better what he did and what he didn't, I laughed and cried at the same time of his words which didn't make any sense. But he didn't laugh, he wasn't angry, he just stared at me without any emotions. Why he is not defending himself? Why he looks that he was talking the truth? Why his face is full of guilty? Why he doesn't say anything.-"No, it can't be you loved her!! My voice now was louder "you don
After 16 years: Maggie's point of view: Nobody spoke. Nobody dared to move an inch while from her mouth was flying out every word was said. Her voice was louder than thunder her eyes were brighter than lightning. She was the most beautiful, the most fearless woman I saw. I knew Maria was all the time confident and strong personality, but I never saw her angry face so full of power. It seemed that she knew something about vampires because only she and YoYo looked that they understood very quickly who was Jack when they saw his black eyes and long fangs. Luke was nervous and he was waiting for more for what YoYo will say to him. He all the time listened to him. If YoYo was the one who knew better what to do in critical situations. I couldn't keep my gaze from her big hazel eyes and long black lashes that were full of confidence.It seemed she was killing Jack. At least her gaze was killing him on her mind. With every sentence, she walked sl
- I was almost naked, only with his jacket, he even said, I have to take off my bra because he could smell Sus on me. Firstly I hesitated, but after some seconds of his annoying gaze, I did what he said. He was acting like Jack. As a vampire, but I was so sure he wasn't one of them. I was sure he wasn't normal as well too, he was strange and more than that... But I couldn't understand his secrets, who he was, or from where he came. And from where he knows everything... for example how he knows so well how to hide from a vampire... he is acting like a not normal person like he would be crazy, and he looks like a crazy person, well I have to add, smartly scary crazy person. doesn't care what others might think about him. Only a fool could say to him that he looks a little bit stupid but I don't think anybody would have so much courage and say this directly into his eyes.He managed to keep himself calm but still serious, sometimes he looked through the mirror at me bu
Maggy's point of view: -"Where we are going?" I asked with a voice full of worries and anxiety. was it a good idea to go with him? He didn't answer me...His eyes are all the time on the road, sometimes an old man looks at me from the mirror. His gaze travels to me more and more often. I began to feel somehow unsafe. With this feeling, my hands tried to hug me and cover my body from his eyes. Sus's dress doesn't help me at all. It shows my body more than I wish... That confidence which I had when I went to the club is far away what I feel now. What if he is some of old creeper or raper or even worse...one of a psychopath. His look is strange... Nobody is wearing that cap on nowadays, well not in his age...at least not in a city, well maybe in a village, in Texas... Hmm, how psychopath looks? I heard that they look like normal people, maybe one of those quiet persons... You know, those men with glasses and a kind smile, who are slim, and not physically st
Maria's point of view:-"I can't believe she did that. It is officially, Maggie went crazy." I watched her back, she even didn't turn around, not for a glance, she just left so easily. Her friends don't matter to her at all. I am not surprised, she is selfish, all the time was in that way.She was hiding a vampire and we still suggested our help... Especially YoYo. And what she did? she ran away like a coward. She could have stayed, I would have convinced grandma to let her stay, and it seems... after Baba heard Maggie's mother's name, her attitude changed so quickly. Baba knew Maggies's mother. It is so clear. I'm so curious about their prehistory. But it is not time for tales...I looked at YoYo, he was all frozen, angry, with so many emotions mixed in his face. His hand brushed his black hair like he was tired or unhappy because Maggie never listens to him. Sometimes I think this is the reason why he is so in love with her. But when I arguing with him h
After 16 years: Maggie's point of view: -"We don't have time for this, he is fast I already can sense him. We must go, now." Stranger's voice sounded authorial but also with a fear... does he afraid of Jack? Of course, he does. Who wouldn't? Even if he sounds worried and still his voice sends chills down my skin. I looked at an old man, he went off from his shadows through YoYo and stopped near me with Baba. finally, I could see his face. His eyes were directed to me if nobody would exist anymore, not even time or people, just me and an old man. He had a beard of two weeks and grey hair, he looked like 60 years old and still he was very handsome. He wasn't tall or very muscular, but his body looked strong, even if it was hidden by a suit, I still felt, he wasn't weak. -"You better go home, old man." YoYo threatened, he took from his sleeve a knife, it was long, almost like a sword. How the hell he carried it all the time there? And why he carries a knif
After 16 years: Maggie's point of view: -"What? this is....it...it is nothing like that." I was struggling with my words and thoughts, he has that power... to shut me up. My cheeks began to burn. YoYo is talking like a jealous boyfriend, what is wrong with him he began to act so weirdly lately. Sus is his sister, not me." and about what werewolf are you talking this isn't funny YoYo, it is no time to make fun of me." I felt irritated. I know that my world can look funny for him but it is not my fault I grew with a vampire. It is not a joke for me. Yoyo came nearer me his hands touched my cheek. His dark eyes tried to read my mind even without vampires abilities. He is good at reading people's soles and thoughts. -"That man... He sighed." A blond, arrogant, smartass punk," he began and I raised my one eyebrow. Yes, Manny, he left not a very good first impression, but why he is talking about him now? he isn't involved all in this mess? he is just angry be
- " Long, long time ago, when there weren't cars, phones or electricity, in the world there was a land and it was a very dark place to live." Sniff, sniff, she breathed her watering nose. Lilliana brushed her tears with her elbow and at the exact moment, her tears were imbibed by her sweater. She smiled at Maggie in pretending that she isn't sad at all. Was she sad because of me? I lowered my body under her balcony I had to hear her voice. For almost three weeks I didn't see her. It is harder than I thought: to keep my distance away from her. Her skin was so pale. She had circles under her eyes I think she lost some weight too. And still, she is the most beautiful woman I have ever seen. But if I have to keep my distance in saving her life I will do it, no matter what pain it costs for me. " There wasn't much food, winters were cold and long, summers were hot and dry. There were more hungry mouths than the land could feed them. Do you know why the world became so dark
This was difficult. I didn't like this new feeling, again. The feeling of heavily. I took one more step away from my Lilliana. One step away from worth to be hers. I watched Vince's face, he was so serious. He didn't know where we were going and what he must do for me. But he definitely suspected that this job won't be clean. I'm curious how strong he hates me? Now he is addicted because of my poison. I noticed how he pressed a wheel in trying not to show me how bad were shaking his hands. I can feel how his soul is calling me. He wants my poisons but he is strong and still doesn't beg me to bite him. I'm curious how strong he can keep... But he will never be as before and he knows that even if he can't understand the power which is keeping to listen to me, to serve me. His all life changed, he hasn't his life anymore. It belongs to me. He can't talk, he hasn't a tongue. And of course, it is also my fault. I never thought that I will
Before 16 yearsJack point of view:Bang! Vince's doors almost broke when I closed them angrily behind my back. I was breathing hard as if I had a marathon, but I wasn't tired. I was furry. How she can act so calm when she sees a death standing by her side. How could I think that I can save her when I am the most dangerous thing for her. How I could think that she can save me.Vince's eyes grew wide when he saw my dark face covered with blood. I took off my black hoody and showed myself to him.- " I need you" Vince, I breathed heavily the words with a husky tone. But I didn't say his name loudly. It sounded more in my head than from my mouth. And I didn't like the way I heard my voice in my mind... Like asking for help, and not as an order.My voice calmed him from the view of my dirty clothes and face. The master's orders are more important than his confusion or his fear of what is happening. Of what happened to me and what is waiting
Jak's point of view:Before 16 years ago:I don't have any doubts that she would do anything to protect Maggie. Lilliana's eyes are full of fire, full of life and confidence. And still, if she would say his name it would be easier to find him and kill him but she doesn't talk about him and blames me for not talking.-"You were saying that you felt different from others. I can't understand. You are human. " She doesn't know what curse of mine made me change into "different" not only physically but also and mentally, I lost all my feelings, I lost almost all memories of how to feel. She sat on her sofa again and put her legs on it too in making her feel more comfortable. I watched all her moves and her dress made to see me more than I should. She has beautiful legs and my demons began to play with my venom. I turned my face in another direction.-"You wouldn't understand." I looked at her, these words irritated me but I must be patient she is just a h
