Chapter 68
There was a silence before a sting and then it was quickly followed by an ache as she felt the blood began to leave her wrist. It was nowhere near as painful as when the other vamp had attacked her, but it was still uncomfortable and unpleasant. She felt her arm begin to shake and feel numb, but Cassius other hand came up to support it and steadied her. Izzie just closed her eyes, trying to take herself off to a happy place as she had done before. It would be over soon if she could just think of something else.
Failing to find a happy place she trained her mind back to the task at hand.
Getting the hell out of here.
She had the main route already planned out in her head, along with a couple of back-up ones but they were only shaky at best. She was banking on getting t

The end was in sight.Never in her life had she been so excited to see that green 'fire exit' sign. Cassius was still in step behind her and they had picked up the pace considerably without breaking into an all out run. There was still a chance that they could be spotted by people coming out of the offices.She half expected something to go horribly wrong, like having someone grab them at the last moment, or to find that the door was chained shut or wouldn't open for whatever reason.In reality, nothing happened.Izzie reached the door and pushed on the handle and it sprung open. It wasn't even alarmed like some of the other fire doors in the building. It couldn't have gone better and Izzie found

Izzie kept her foot to the floor the entire way, constantly checking in the rear-view mirror to see if they were being followed. It was quite surprising that she didn't attract any police attention, though she was pretty sure she had been caught by a few speed cameras along the way. It didn't matter as the guild would be the one to foot the bill though, not her, Frederick may be a bit pissed with the extra points on his licence though, not that she cared much. Cassius stayed down with the dust cover over him to protect him from the suns rays.

"Jake?" Izzie whimpered.The whole room fell into an eerie silence as she looked at this ghost of Jake. His skin was almost snow white and even his lips looked a faint shade of blue. There was a stillness to him that frightened her and convinced her of the worst. Izzie crept forward, side-stepping Cassius' feeble attempt to stop her. It just seemed to get worst the closer she got. The puncture wounds on his neck looked old but were still open They didn’t appear to be bleeding, well - not much anyway. Whereas the wounds on her wrist that had been made only an hour or so ago had already pretty much healed.She couldn't see any rise or fall of his chest which was equally concerning and she could already feel the tears welling up in her eyes."Jake?" it only c

Izzie didn't even know how long she'd been driving but the sun had begun to set on the horizon. She was headed in no particular direction other than away. The whole time she couldn't help but feel the guilt of stealing a dead man's truck. She knew she shouldn't think of it that way, but she couldn't help it. It was bittersweet to be sat here where he used to sit. It still smelled like him which was equal parts as comforting as it was saddening. Things would never be the same without him."Where are we heading?" Cassius asked from the backseat, finally breaking the silence as he sat up. He was wrapped in Izzie's throw that he had grabbed off of the couch and used to cover himself while running to the car. He did look rather hilarious all snuggled up in a huge black velvety bundle with only his pale face visible beneath the heavy material, it was a welcome distraction from the pain she fel

It was a relief when Izzie finally pulled into a parking space. Her ass had gone numb long ago and her arms, feet and back were aching from the long drive. Her stomach growled loudly again at the thought of food. Cassius had exited the vehicle and was already opening her door for her. She smiled at him in thanks and took his hand for stability as she hopped out of the truck, shutting the door behind her and swiftly locking it. She tossed the keys to Cassius, happy for him to take the reins after this rest stop. He caught them effortlessly, tucking them into his pants pocket. The car park of the store was pretty empty, but then again it was getting late. She glanced up, blinded by the bright neon sign that read Hallywell's.A supermarket.Not her first choice of stop but it had been the first place they had seen along the way and s

"I just don't understand why he would run," Cassius shook his head as they made their way back to the truck. The car park was now even emptier than before, which would have been a little eerie if Cassius hadn't have been right at the side of her. "Everyone has their reason, Cas," Izzie tried to reason with him. It became apparent as they had been checking out that the way Tristan had acted had really gotten to him. He had been quiet and in his own world up until now."But he's the heir for that branch of our family," he replied, "He and I were to take over at the same time, work together." He seemed really disheartened about it. It had never occurred to Izzie that Cassius might actually have wanted to take over from his father. Hopefully not to continue the horrendous acts that he was committing, but to take over as head of the family. Tristan recoiling from him had really hurt him even though Izzie hadn't seen it at the time."He was like

"Isabelle," Cassius' hushed voice stirred her from her nightmare plagued sleep, and her eyes fluttered open. The images of Jake's pale lifeless body started to fade as her gaze met Cassius'. He gave her one of his heartbreaker smiles before he leant down and placed a kiss on her forehead.Wait...Leant down?She looked around with dawning realisation that they weren't in the truck anymore. She was lying flat on a velvety green couch, with her head propped up by a pillow. There was her throw Cassius had used to cover himself in the truck draped over her as a blanket. Once Cassius got up to move away she got a better view of the room. It was beautifully decorated in deep green, black and white and everything was colour coordinated, all the way down to the light shades. The main wall featured a large wood-burning fireplace with a black marble hearth, and with an exquisitely carved dark oak mantle. The wall w

Before they knew it they were back on the couch with Cassius on top of her, their lips still locked in a passionate kiss. The tension between them had grown too much and Cassius had decided that he was going to seize what was his, not that she minded one bit. After being blue-ballsed by Brad last time this was long overdue and she'd be damned if anything was to interrupt them this time.There were no formalities or sweet caresses this time. His mouth was rough against hers, bruising her lips with the power of his kiss while his tongue dominated inside her mouth.He broke off only to whip her vest and hoody off over her head with one swift movement and tossed them aside. He paused of a moment, his eyes darkening with lust as his gaze raked over her now exposed flesh. Izzie felt herself grow wet under the heat of his stare.She didn't know whether to throw her arms over herself or just to throw herself at hi
