“Elizabeth…” Jenny says, clearly reading the determination in Elizabeth’s eyes. “I’m sorry. We need you back at the manor. We will try again, please bear with the pain.”Jenny steals her heart and forces herself to hurt Elizabeth again. Elizabeth looks over at her in shock, but a mask of determined resignation coats her face.A wave of nausea spills into Elizabeth’s chest. She can’t stop her voice from trembling as she asks, “Are… are you sure?”“We don’t have a choice right now…”It’s silent in the room for a moment, the drape of quiet only periodically interrupted by the slow drip drip drip of the water. “How are we going to do this?” Elizabeth asks after a second.Don’t think about it don’t think about it don’t think about it“I- “ Jenny darts around the room for anything that could help them remove the chain and something falls into her eyes. She moves to pick it up from the ground.“I- we have a knife.” Jenny swallows hard and palms an angry-looking blade where it rests in her ha
A heartbeat of time passes; and then all at once, each of them-- Elizabeth, and Jenny-- come to the same decision at the exact same time, completely independent of one another.Adrenaline passes through Elizabeth, blazing hot and sparkling bright like lightning. Move, her brain tells her. Elizabeth doesn’t even have time to think about what she’s doing. One second, she’s standing stock still in shock, and in the next, Elizabeth grips Jenny’s hands, dips at the waist, and gets ready to sprint.Elizabeth doesn’t have a second to fully process that before Tina opens her mouth to say with a snort, “And where do you think y-”Jenny points out a determined finger, and a dagger comes booming out of her hand. It hits Austin square in the chest, sending him catapulting backward out of the door to smash into the tree on the opposite side of the door.In the millisecond of silence immediately after, Jenny screams. “Run!”And Elizabeth takes off.Her ankle shrieks at her to stop as she vaults ove
I groan, shifting on my bed, pulling my pillow on top of my head, covering my ears. The sound of an alarm is killing my head. With my left hand, I search for the source of the sound. When I get my hand on that, I turn it off. I was up till late-night to complete the assignment, and tomorrow was the last day to submit it to the professor. When I get down from the bed, The wood creeks under my foot. Stretching my body, I get up from the bed. It's still 5 in the morning. I could only get four hours of sleep. I need to do all the house chores before going to college. Otherwise, my aunt will kill me. My father and mother died in a car accident, and my custody fell in my aunt's hand. That's when my life became hell. I don't remember much about my mom and dad. I was too young to remember anything at that time. But I know for sure they loved me so much. My aunt Linda Martin is my mom's only sister. I don't know why she hates my mom to
I enter the college, it’s still too early for the college. I see no soul on the campus on my way. I feel grateful that I left early. I open my locker, where my bag and belongings are kept. My class schedule is stuck on the inside of the locker door. I look at my schedule; my first class is English literature. I searched for my assignment, which I worked all night to finish. Taking that, I go look for the professor’s offices. My luck office is open. I enter and place my assignment on the table, then move out of the office, closing the door. Students start to arrive, so I enter my class. I always sit at the back in my class at the corner seat so that nobody will notice me and pick on me. I make my way towards my seat, but someone doesn’t want me to have a peaceful life. “Hey, freak, did you do my assignment?” David comes my way. He is the son of one of the richest men in the city and Tina’s boyfriend. Both he and Tina nev
Christian's POV "Mr. Ford, it's a pleasure to meet you. I always admired you," a person approached me "you are a role model for the younger generations for being a successful businessman at a young age ." I Shift my eyes to the person talking, "Mr. Steel, I'm honed." Mr. Steel is one of the best friends of my grandfathers. He just nods his head. "Are u planning to shift to the city? Or you'll also stay there only in the woods". I get stiff at the question, shaking my head. "No, I'll stay with my family in the woods only." "I don't get your family sometimes. What's there in there that you guys never come and leave in the city". I just smile at him. "I'll come back in a few minutes" I go towards the balcony to get fresh air. It's the full moon today. I didn't take my medicine. Well, it slipped from my mind totally. What should I do? I'll just return to my mansion then take my medication. No, I can't leave now. Party is still half
Christian's Point of View, Her face was scarlet red, she was taking long breaths, her eyes were clouded; I think she couldn't focus on anything at this time. It looked like she was struggling to keep herself sane at this time. She looked like someone who was drugged. I don't know why anger well up in my stomach seeing her suffering like this. I think it's my people who did it. I'll definitely punish whoever did this to her. How could they drug someone to deliver a person to me? The thought it may not be my people who sent her here never came to my mind. Since she was at my door, I concluded that she was here for me. She stared at me for some time then started to struggle against my bare body. Did this girl know what she is doing now and how it affects me? It was the thought running in my head currently. I looked down at her when there was no movement. She had gone to sleep. She struggled for some time, then gone still i
Her blood tasted so sweet I had a feeling like I was drinking a glass of wine. Instead of taking a small amount of blood, I just drank without thinking. The girl's face was becoming pale with a loss of blood. When I thrust hard into her, she cried and bit my shoulder so hard. I could sense that my skin tore, and blood came out from there when she bit. When I spilled into her, she took a long breath and slumped on the bed, licking her lips with my blood on them. When I saw that, my eyes went wild. She tasted my blood, M-My blood… and I took her blood at that same time…Shit...We... We…we consumed blood from each other at the same time. We are mated now. What should I do? This wasn't supposed to happen. I screamed in my head. Now she is my mate. But she is human, and vamps only have one mate for their life, and because she took my blood and I took hers simultaneously, we got mated. We have bonded with each other al
Elizabeth's POV When I get up, I look around to find myself in an unfamiliar bed. It's still a little dark outside, and I don't get it at first. I slowly start to move my body to get up. I yelp at the pain in my lower body. That's when it clicked. My eyes widen at the realization. I look down to my body to see if anything is wrong, Praying it's all a dream, but the reality is a b*tch. Last night Tina and her friends drugged me. WHY… covering my face with my hands, I cry. I don't know how long I sobbed. When I stop and braise myself, I lift my face to look at my surrounding. I see my body covered in bruises and bites, questioning my life. This room is quite large compared to other rooms you have been assigned to clean and check on. The large bed covers a large part of the room, leaving both sides to walk around freely. There is a couch just in the front of the room. The floor is covered with carpet. It's
