Love, Lust and Blood OPEN SECRET#33
I woke up the next day tired. I was too feeble even to move. I touched my forehead, and I was as hot as hell. I was also sweating profusely because my hands were sticky. I sighed, winced, and sat on my bed slowly. I didn't know how long I would last like this. If things continued at this rate, I would have to request to be stabbed again. The pain was excruciating. I dragged the collar of my shirt and looked at the bite. It was getting nastier. I sighed and covered it back."Desmond!" Solomon called from downstairs. "You have a visitor."I wondered why he shouted when he knew I could hear him. My head was pounding, and his shout made things worst. I sighed and got off the bed. I walked down the stairs slowly, hoping it would lessen the pounding in my head, but it didn't. It took me almost five minutes to walk down the stairs. I finally arrived in the sitting room and saw Jocelyn, Zion, and Solomon chatting. Well, they seemed to have formed some friendship.Solomon turned and faced me
Love, Lust and Blood THE REVELATION#34
I didn't know how to start. Or instead, where to start. The fact that everybody was here made things even more challenging for me. I hadn't told Solomon about what happened last night yet, and I knew he would get mad when I started talking. I knew I was never going to get that apology accepted after this. "Hope,"Solomon called. "What is the matter?". "Let Desmond speak first,"she said gently. Everybody turned and looked at me. Solomon looked at me with a raised eyebrow, certainly intrigued about what I was about to say. "Go on, Desmond,"Solomon prompted. I sighed. "Hope knows I am a vampire,"I confessed. Solomon stood up, shocked. He looked at me and clenched his jaws. "What?!"he said. "I saw him speed into my room yesterday and knock out Melissa,"Hope added. "What is going on here?"Zion asked. "Let me explain!"I demanded. Everybody kept quiet and sat, eager to hear what would come from my mouth. I hoped she wouldn't creep out and tell the whole city because her mother was
Love, Lust and Blood LOVE STRUCK#35
Solomon and I stood on the lawn before Mr. Hermott's house. It was strangely in the middle of the forest like ours, but it wasn't as glamorous as ours was. It was more of a bungalow. Somewhat of a cabin, but much bigger and better than that. I still didn't understand why Mr. Hermott wanted to see us. It just didn't sit right with me. I didn't plan on coming here, but Solomon had pressured me to. I clenched my teeth as he rang the doorbell. The door opened immediately, and Mr. Hermott appeared. He flashed us a smile as he recognized us. It was strange to see a man like Mr. Hermott smile. It looked devilish and manipulative, even though it was meant to be friendly. "Solomon. Desmond", he said. "I'm glad you came. Please, come in." Solomon smiled and walked in. I placed my hands in my jacket, not intrigued, and walked into the house. It was brightly lit and looked much bigger. It was also glamorous. Maybe I judged it too early. The place was warm and cozy. Solomon and I took a sit on
Love, Lust and Blood A VISIT FROM AN OLD FRIEND#36
After much contemplation, I switched directions and headed toward "The House of Delusions."I arrived at the bar some seconds later. I needed some shots to take my mind off, Hope. I couldn't believe I was in love with her. I thought I had hated her for so long, not knowing I couldn't decipher my feelings for her. It was the love I felt and not unending hatred. I sighed and stared at the door of the bar. The last time I came here, I had fought with some men and brutally wounded them. I had a little contact with Hope before I came here. It seemed my life revolved around her, but I didn't notice until now. I gulped hard and walked into the bar. The bar smelt of alcohol and blood. I hungered for blood. I need blood to calm down my nerves. Blood with alcohol would do the trick. I wanted the blood to go down my throat slowly and cool down my demons. And I liked the alcohol to fire up my neurons and make the feeling of the realization fade away. I sat on a stool at the wooden counter, and
Love, Lust and Blood HER GUARDIAN ANGEL#37
"This is useless,"Solomon said and let get off me. I dropped to the floor and groaned in pain. He turned and walked back into the house. I sighed and laid back down, looking at the stars. They filled the night sky, scattered around it like pearls on a beach. I heard Hope rush towards me. Her face appeared, covering my view of the stars. I rolled my eyes and sighed. "Desmond,"she said. "Are you alright?". I sat up and buckled my knees with my hands. She sat beside me. I clenched my jaws as the pain eased away. "Talk to me,"she begged. "What do you want me to do, Hope? What do you want from me?"I roared. I stood up and faced her. She sat on her legs, her face up as she listened to me. "The only thing you have done ever since you came into my life is to ruin everything!"I roared. "I hate you, Hope Wallace!"I added. I panted as the anger faded away slowly. She was crying as she looked at me. She sniffed and wi
Love, Lust and Blood HURT#38
I arrived at Hope's house in my car the following day. I halted the car in her driveway and killed the engine. I got out of the Audi and closed the door behind me. I leaned back on the door and waited for her.Though I didn't tell her I was coming to pick her up today, I felt it was gentlemanly to do so. And because I loved her. Yes, I did. And I was glad I was finally getting used to it. I looked at the car parked before mine. It was a police cruiser. It was probably her mother's. She was the town's sheriff, and I knew she wouldn't like us seeing each other. It was just the simple truth. Parents always got hard-headed about teenage love and acted like chaperones at a prom.I heard the door open, and I leaned off the door, expecting to see Hope walk down the short stairs. Instead, I saw her mother walk up to me with a pistol. I was perplexed. I raised my hands in surrender. It was sarcastic in the fact that the bullets couldn't hurt me."Who are you, and what is
Love, Lust and Blood HERMOOTS VISIT#39
We arrived home devastated and unsure of what to do. Where would we find someone to act as a parent for us? The only solution was Aleksandr Karavev, over a thousand miles away. Even if we were to place a call right now, he would never reach on time. Even if you used his superspeed, he still wouldn't arrive on time. This is why we were so frustrated. I sighed and opened a bottle of alcohol, pouring it into a glass afterward. I took the half-filled glass and gulped it down at a go. The alcohol burnt my throat, and I felt the heat expel from my nose. It certainly did the job of calming my nerves. "Solomon,"I called. "You should try this. It will calm your nerves." He turned and looked at me with rage in his eyes. He certainly didn't look calm. He was terrified of another human knowledge of our secret. He wasn't still happy about Hope learning of our secret. And speaking of Hope, she had successfully snubbed me throughout today. Something I never thought was poss
Love, Lust and Blood DINNER WITH THE WALLANCES#40
I sat back on the couch with Hope, but we didn't talk. We just watched a programme on television. The program was about a boy who was an alien and had lived on Earth for more than four hundred years. The boy didn't like the girl at first, but after some experiences with each other, they got close, and he fell for her.The girl confessed her feelings to him, but he told her he couldn't be with her because he was dangerous; when she asked him why, he confessed to her that he was an alien, an impostor on Earth. He showed her his true form, and she still didn't want to leave him. He finally accepted her, and they began dating.The program was ironic because it described the situation Hope and I were in right now. I couldn't be with her because I was dangerous. She had never seen the lousy vampire side of me before. I was sure if she did, she would run away and never look back. It was better to hurt her now than to accept her now and hurt her more later.Back to the
