I opened my eyes it was still dark and I could hear my parents around me arguing.
“It’s your fault for choosing this spot,” My father said to my mother
“I didn’t know this was going to happen to her”, my mother said.
My mom was holding me in her arms, we were still near the lake. The rain and all the thunder were gone. It was once again that peaceful place that I loved. Who could have thought I almost died here a few hours ago.
“Oh thank god you are alive Eve”, my mother said as soon as I opened my eyes.
“Who did this Eve?” my father asked me. I couldn’t say anything, it took me a while to form my first words. I was still trying to breathe normally.
“It was Sam….. and Regina.” I could barely manage to say those words and I went into unconsciousness again.
I woke up again, I was feeling warm now. I found out I was back in my house and was wearing fresh clothes, I was cleaned up and in my bed, pretty warm and cozy. My bedroom was really simple, nothing fancy, I had a single bed and in one corner was my closet for clothes and on the other was a little wooden study table accompanied by a chair.
My parents had turned off the lights so it was more peaceful for me. I just wanted to stay in my bed forever and forget about what happened to me. I wrapped the quilt around me tightly. I felt safe now.
But the images kept coming back to me. The bullies laughing and Regina mocking me. Sam calling me a freak and them drowning me, the cold lake water and me struggling to break free, and then the Black wolf….who was that? I wondered.
My head started hurting again and I dozed off into the world of dreams.
I heard a loud bang and I got up with a jerk, fear in my eyes. I thought they had come back, my bullies, and they would drown me again. So out of fear, I started yelling loudly for help.
But it was my mother who had burst into my room she was carrying several bags.
“Eve baby calm down it's just mommy”, my mother tried to calm me down. It was the first time that I noticed that she looked like me, but old me. I stopped as soon as I heard her sweet voice.
She put the bags on my room’s floor and sat beside me on the bed and looked at me with motherly concern.
“Eve, how are you feeling right now?” she asked me.
I couldn’t speak or say a word. I simply stared at her for what felt like a long time and then tears started forming in my eyes. Upon seeing this my mother embraced me and we hugged for an eternity it seemed. I couldn’t stop myself from crying.
“There, there Eve, It’s all over, you are fine now my darling”, She assured me as she ran her fingers through my hair. It felt nice, I felt like a little kid again. I didn’t want her to stop. I wanted us to stay like this holding on to each other forever.
But then it ended and my mother looked into my eyes seriously.
“Now love, listen to me and listen very carefully, no if’s or but’s, you got it”, my mother told me as she wiped tears off my face. I nodded. I had absolutely no idea what was she going to say so I decided to not ask any questions and hear my mom.
“I want you to get up and get in the car honey, don’t ask questions, just do as your told, all your things are already packed and in the bags,” My mother told me and helped me get up.
“But mom…”
“No ifs or buts Eve”, my mother cut me short.
And soon enough I was in our car. It was an old black sedan, I loved it but at this moment the situation was tense. Mom looked worried as hell and my father who was in the driver’s seat was unusually quiet and staring into the distance.
What was happening, our things were already packed and in the car. All of that seemed really weird. The sky was dark and clear. I couldn’t see anything clearly outside. I wish there was some light at least. So I decided to switch on the lights inside the car but my mom’s hand stopped me with a swift motion and looked into my eyes and shook her head.
“Dad what”
“Eve, not now”, mom warned me again. So I stayed quiet and wrapped myself again in the blanket that I took from my room while going towards our car. I tried to make sense of it all but nothing made sense honestly.
My father started the car engine and we drove which felt like an eternity. Soon we stopped near the fields where I and Sam used to hang out, seeing them again I got tears in my eyes.
The car stopped with a jerk. My father looked back from his seat at me and saw tears in my eyes. He didn’t say anything at all and simply stared. It looked as though he was trying to make a decision. And then I noticed a sparkle in his eyes.
“Let’s do this”, he said to my mom.
My father and mother got out of the car and took out metal baseball bats from the trunk of the car. I got scared, what were they planning to do with them, surely they were not going to play baseball in the field right now.
“Mom, Dad….what are you doing, where are you going”, I asked them freaking out.
“Stay put love, we’ll be back shortly”, my father said and they left.
I could still see them through the car window moving cautiously. Then I saw them approach two black shadows in the distance and I heard loud cries and sounds of metal on bone.
My parents quickly came back with blood on their bats. My father handed his bat to my mother and mom put them back in the trunk. Then my parents got back in the car.
“This will teach them a lesson, those little fuckers, an eye for an eye bitches” My father said with satisfaction as he looked in the direction where they went with their bats.
“Eve you don’t have to worry now dear we took your revenge this sorry ass lot won’t be hurting anyone again in the future, we made sure of that.” My father said. Oh my goddess, they were talking about Sam and Regina. What had they done to them? I was panicking, they were after all the children of Alpha and Beta of our pack. Our whole family would be doomed.
“What did you do Dad?” I asked, scared because I knew that the answer would not be anything good.
“Oh nothing love. I broke some bones in them, that’s all, I don’t care if it's Alpha’s son or Beta’s daughter if someone puts one finger on my daughter I’m gonna fix ‘em up”. My dad said as we drove away. I was horrified at first but then I thought they deserved it, after what they had done to me.
“Everything will be alright Eve love, just go back to sleep, we’ll handle everything, leave everything to us”. My mom said and I nodded and drifted back into sleep.
Eve’s footsteps echoed from the cold marble walls as she walked through the gothic hallway of the old castle. The dark halls made her heart beat faster and faster, adrenalin pumping as she kept walking. The stillness was filling the atmosphere with cold.The loneliness of every single step became a true burden, and she was convinced that she was being watched; her gaze darting from one shadow to another, thrown by the flickering meagre candlelight that was cast against the walls, the patterns and patterns of light jumping in front of her eyes. The longer she stayed in this place, the more it began to feel less like the opulent residence it once was and more like a tomb to some long lost victim.Every squeak of the floorboards, every shift of the wind rattling against the cracks of the walls, brought her a new message, a vague, eerie warning that she was not alone. She ran to get a grip, goosebumps all over her.Her steps faltered momentarily, her eyes darting around, searching for any
She couldn’t control what was happening to the bike. It kept going downhill and with it carried poor Eve. Her head started spinning as the bike rolled down on the slippery slope.She let go of its handle and it kept going down and down. While Eve quickly grabbed hold of a nearby stone on the ground halting her descent. Her skin was torn from everywhere, head to toe, she had little scars. She felt like crying but this was no time to cry she had to get up.Eve picked herself up and started climbing back up the hill with difficulty. Maybe her mother was right, she should not have meddled in this whole Maverick affair.“Stupid Eve, you just couldn’t stay put,” She said to herself.“You just had to be the one to rescue M”“You just had to be the righteous one”“And a big fuck you to you Maverick, look what you have made me do”“Silly little thing you are Eve”, she kept talking to herself. She finally made it to the top of the hill and stood there, catching her breath.“shit I am completely
Eve just couldn’t digest this injustice being done with Maverick. Nobody in the pack or in the school raised any voice against this. They all pretended like nothing had happened. Even Sandra went home after finishing her classes.“I want to go the packhouse,” Eve announced. It was afternoon and she was in the kitchen with her Mom.Mom was writing her journal on her laptop wearing glasses. She took down her glasses. “Why?” mom asked her.“Because they took Maverick that’s why…I mean why is everybody acting like nothing wrong happened today?” Eve said frustratingly as she wrestled to break her sweet corn into two pieces.“Listen dear we have had enough of our own troubles, we don’t need this too,” Mom warned her as she put on her glasses and resumed her typing.“I don’t think so, you guys can stay silent at all this, it’s your choice but I won’t,” Eve said.“Your father called specifically instructing me to keep you away from all this,” Mom said without looking at her.“FINE” Eve yelled
When their eyes opened it was already dark and both of them were naked in the middle of the forest. The trees were swaying. The strong wind had started blowing. Alpha smelled rain, he got up. Lexy was still fast asleep her clothes discarded around her.Alpha picked up her shirt and pants, and threw them toward her.“Hey wake up, we should move,” Alpha said, he was really feeling the cold air ripping through him. He had discarded his clothes in a nearby tree before shifting. Lexy didn’t move. She was oblivious to what was happening around her.Alpha quickly searched for his clothes and finally found them beside a tree. He put them on and went to wake up Lexy.“Vampire, come on, wake up,” he gently touched her face. Lexy stirred in her sleep and opened her eyes dreamily. Alpha adored that.“You don’t know my name, really?” Lexy said and got up.“I…yes I still don’t know,” Alpha shied away from her.“too bad, you have to try harder next time,” Lexy said as she put on her clothes.“What d
Wolf was coming closer and closer, Lexy could see it getting bigger. Its long glistening teeth were ready to sink into Lexy’s throat and when it was almost an inch away from her neck she used her super speed to move just a little to the right and the big wolf missed her by inches, slammed face first into the ground.Wolf let out a growl. A smirk was dancing on Lexy’s lips. The old Alpha had forgotten that she was vampire, and it’s hard to catch a vampire. Alpha on the other hand was no fool. He had dealt with vampires his whole life. He was just playing along.He let out another growl showing his frustration, letting Lexy think that she had won this round. He turned again, squared off against her.“What happened Alpha? I thought that you were going to get me?” Lexy mocked AlphaAlpha started running towards her again and went for her throat once more. But same thing happened again. Lexy was enjoying this. This was refreshing for her. She had never faced a wolf in her life, even though
Old Alpha had always been a good and confident leader of his pack. He had never even once made a mistake. His reign was just and that is why werewolves around him lived in peace. But things were pretty shaken up after his confrontation with the beautiful vampire girl.Alpha was sitting by the tree in the forest lost in his thoughts, looking far away at something.“What was her name?” He had forgotten the name of the vampire he had kissed yesterday. He could still smell her hair on him. It smelt like strawberry. Before all this vampires were disgusting beings to him. He hated them even when someone mentioned them. But now…not now, he could feel her lips, those tasted like honey. And the way her body jerked when he pushed her closer to himself was giving him arousal.His hand went to his wood. He was hard down there. He kept his eyes closed as he tried to remember every little detail of yesterday. His hands could touch her silky smooth skin. Felt the very fabric of her being. He kept on
