Bloodstained Promises Chapter 48 : Battle for Love
NashIt had taken too long for me to get to Greece, but now that I was here, I felt a thirst for blood flowing through my veins that I barely recognized. Laying upon the dirt and grass hillside, I peered up through heavy binoculars towards the white villa two hundred yards in front of me. I had been waiting for this moment, and though Brady and I had a plan in place, I was ready to ditch it all and storm in there killing everyone in my path.“Get yourself together, Nash,” he snapped at me from under his breath. “We can’t divert from the plan. That’s what will get us and her killed.”“I know, I know.” Gritting my teeth, I tried to focus on what I was supposed to be doing. I wasn’t usually the person who had to be reminded. In fact, I was always the one snapping at others to get their shit together, but not right now.Right now this situation was too close to home for me. And Vanessa made it hard to think straight.Pushing away the annoying sound of Brady’s warnings, I vi
Bloodstained Promises Chapter 49 : Stone Cold Promises
Fear and panic filled me as Brady dragged me away from the Villa. Away from the chaos out of the south wall where men in dark green and black suits with masks, eyewear, and guns stood waiting for us. My feet halted me at our approach, but they weren’t interested in us. They stared beyond me, from where we had come with their guns raised ready to attack anyone who followed that was a threat to us leaving.“Brady, stop! What are you doing? We can’t leave him.”He spun to face me; his eyes narrowed as he snatched me by my wrist. “I am keeping you safe, Vanessa. Either you follow me willingly, or I will toss you over my shoulder and carry you the rest of the way. Do you understand me?”Brady had never been serious with me before, at least not like this. And as much as I wanted to protest, I didn’t. I let him pull me behind him to the jagged hillside, down towards a wooden staircase that led to the coast. A coast so black that I could barely see my hand in front of my face, but I put
Bloodstained Promises Chapter 50 : Captive
~Two Months Later~Unknown POVEverything had gone as planned, at least in a way. I had worked too hard to play it cool. To pretend that I was using the Knighthood to stay on top. I had never wanted to be part of their games, but when Nash’s interest with the fucking girl, I couldn’t help but use that to my advantage. The mission kept me busy and helped me forget that I would have taken off by now if I could get away with it. Now I just needed time for it all to fall apart.Everything that the Knighthood had taught him had gone out the window the moment he met that girl. I had hoped that I could have gotten him on my side.

To have what you thought was love turn into harsh realization of manic moments that never seemed to make sense. The haunted memories of my past were always too much for me to handle. The dark ways that my mind played tricks on me, constantly having me look over my shoulder as if waiting for him to appear, exhausted me to no end. Sometimes, I felt I was waiting for death to meet me with open arms as if I was meeting an old friend. The worst part of it all was I thought the pain of the mental abuse I sustained would never end, and I would be forced to succumb to the dark desires of Trevor&
Bloodstained Promises Chapter 2 : Unwanted Family Reunions
~Two Years Later~When I was a little girl, I tried to imagine how my life would be when I grew up. Images of living on a beach in California with my best friend Sasha was always what came to mind. My mother peacefully took up space in her white beach chair as we spent time together like we used to do when I was little, back before my father died, fighting overseas for our country. Back when everything in life made sense.Two years later, instead of the happy fantasy I had hoped for, I found myself swallowing my heartache over the death of my mother while trying to finish school far away from Sasha in an academy that I never knew existed. My hopes and dreams shattered, but a new future on the horizon filled with possibilities kept me going. “Nessa!” an overly eager voice called out from the bar as I walked into JD’s with the sole intention of getting absolutely shit-faced. Which turned out to be a reoccurring thing since I had graduated and escaped my shit situation back home
Bloodstained Promises Chapter 3 : Bedlam Academy
Walking through the front door of my mother’s home, I had expected her to greet me. But instead, I was welcomed into an empty house. The light yellow walls with tiny white and pink flowers met me like an old friend. The smell of her perfume still lingered throughout the entire home, and I wondered if that’s why my stepfather never came home anymore. It didn’t matter that he had gotten custody of me, because my father was gone, and I had no other family. He had loved my mother just as much as I had, and now she was gone.The only thing I was left with was the notion Trevor would be coming for me.The man who had completely destroyed my life for the last few years, and inevitably would own me now that I was of legal age. After all, this was all I had. All I was good for. My life belonged to him, or so he had told me for years.Tears fell down my face as I walked towards the antique China cabinet, a photo of my mother and me when I was young sat upon the shelf. The sun, shining down
Bloodstained Promises Chapter 4 : Brooding for Vanessa
NashI had never been accustomed to how the world worked. Nor had I taken kindly to the hands that I had been dealt in my life. My circumstances never quite added up no matter who had tried to figure me out. A psychological event that had stumped doctors for years as I was growing up. Not that it was my fault. No kid at the age of twelve should have to witness the death of the people they loved the most, and though my godfather had paid a handsome fee to have all the best doctors take a look at me, it was never enough.I was fucked up. A case they couldn’t solve, or so they claimed. But in my eyes, it was because they didn’t want to deal with me. They didn’t want to face the fact that I wasn’t their next case to solve. I was a fucking human, and the bad shit that happened to me wasn’t normal.It was the whole reason I had accepted my fate at this academy. The whole reason why I agreed to the brotherhood. I wanted revenge.I wanted retribution. “Things didn’t go as planned?”
Bloodstained Promises Chapter 5 : Darkness Calls
NessaSweat dripped down my back from under my sports bra as I stood wiping my brow. I’d spent all day unpacking boxes in the heat because of the AC issue in the building, and though they sent out a notice saying it had just been fixed—it’d take hours to cool. Lifting my phone from the desk beside me I checked the time.7:57 pm. Fuck, I worked through dinner.I hadn’t realized how long I had been working at trying to get my dorm unpacked, but after the altercation with Nash earlier it was the only thing that kept my mind busy. The only thing that distracted me from the look he gave me before he left me standing alone on the sidewalk. Something about what I said had set him off, and though I shouldn’t have been worried about what he or anyone thought. I couldn’t help it. Especially since I knew that Trevor was lurking somewhere around the area outside the school, and now I was basically confined to the safety of the campus.Even the thought of ordering a pizza made me nervous
