Alijah got into the kitchen, poured the last of her oatmeal into a bowl, added some milk to it, and made her way back to the room where she had left the stranger and his cat. She shook her head as she realized that the cat she had grown fond of would no longer be hers since the owner would want to go back for his pet when he was leaving. Even if the cat wanted to stay with her, she was sure the man would insist on taking the cat away.She would miss the pet. She had come to rely on the companionship the cat gave her. Now, there would be no one she could talk to and tell all her worries. She would return home to only her furniture and the silence her house provided her with. She sighed as she tried to shoot the depressing thoughts away. She was already used to being alone for most of her life, so returning to that circle again shouldn't be such a hard thing for her.It was a hard thing, she thought. Whether she admitted it out loud or not, whether she thought of it in her mind or she d
Scott reappeared in the corner of the room to Alijah’s shock. Now that she knew this man was the one that put her in the state she was at the hospital she had little to no sympathy for him whatsoever.“I’ll kill you and you’re gonna regret ever thinking that I could be messed with like that! If not for the doctor, I might have died! Don’t you understand that?”Scott could hardly believe his eyes. Hadn’t he teleported?Yet he had landed right back in the living room when his intentions were to return to his place and let this woman cook off her temper for some time before he approached her again.Why was he not able to teleport?Alijah stepped forward, gritting her teeth when Scott didn’t say a word and simply stared at her with unblinking eyes. She had no idea he was surveying her and wondering about the extent of her powers then and there.All she could perceive was his arrogant nature and she remembered the reason the police were called by her at first: because he had threatened to
Alijah was pretty sure that her brain was broken by the end of Scott’s and Renee’s explanations.She was speechless for more than a couple of seconds and Renee turned to Scott with wide eyes.“I think we’ve broken her,” Renee aptly remarked to which Scott refrained the urge to roll his eyes at his sister.He never believed a human would be able to understand the intricacies of the supernatural world, anyway. They were far too mundane and ordinary to perceive anything beyond their own lives, just like cattle. But at the very least, wouldn’t she be able to understand a simple concept as her life being in danger?“Um,” Alijah spoke up, clearing her throat as she tried to regain her senses. “So, what I’m getting is that you have no intention of leaving here. Or rather, leaving me the hell alone.”She decided to go straight to the point and cut out the talks around her blood. She’d heard the word ‘blood’ too many damn times in less than a couple of minutes.The two regarded her with unread
Evan was startled awake by the sound of beeping that wouldn’t cease. Immediately he stood up, his body working before his mind returned to reality.Had it worked after all?The whole way to the laboratory was rushed and he was eager to see what would be there waiting for him. Had the experiment worked after all?Had he discovered a vampire?As soon as he stepped into the laboratory, he was struck by a certain pungent smell and he gagged, immediately plugging his nose with his pointer finger and thumb tightly. He reached for a gas mask he kept for safety purposes and put it on immediately, letting the filter in it so it’s job.The scent was horrible. What was it?He heard a hissing sound and moved towards its direction, only to see the cage he had placed the puppy in had dents all over it. The puppy lay there, inside, unmoving. Its fur looked matted and darker than it had been originally and Evan had to wonder if it was the very same puppy he had injected in the first place.It Wasn’t
Not now.Why am I experiencing this? Alijah thought to herself. The same overwhelming feeling of weakness she used to feel seemed to have taken her by storm. "Uhm, who are you?" Alijah asked, scrambling backwards, her steps seemed to slow down even though she wanted to move away as fast as possible. "A friendly neighborhood man, I am." The man lifted his hoodie and she saw his face. Dread filled her eyes.It was a friend of her boss, Alfred Ray, he used to constantly bully her and say derogatory words to her like her boss did. The memory of how he and her boss molested her at one of the first Christmas parties at the office. The started with staring at her constantly, looking at her butt and her breasts, making her feel uncomfortable, they made her feel weirded out. After they got to a particular stage of the party, the both of them had gotten really drunk but they still had their senses.They backed her up into a corner, touching her breasts and her butt, this man in particular,
As the silence began to weigh on them. The three of them standing and facing each other, Matthew beside Alijah and Scott staring at the both of the "Keep your little boyfriend in check, I am very sure that he doesn't want to be talking to me like that.As tensions rose between Scott and Matthew, the air crackled with furiosity. Words flew like arrows, sharp and cutting, each one fueling the flames of anger that they both currently felt. "This is not a situation of fear. I have dealt with punks like you and you have no reason to show that you deserve anything good. " Matthew said. "Look at this fool, standing in and acting like a superhero, you are a stupid scared boy that will get beaten if he keeps addressing me like I am a little brother to you." Scott charged forward and shoved him.Shockingly, the force Scott had to put into pushing him into the ground was more than an average human would have required. "Fuck you. Don't you dare touch me again. Things will end badly for yo
Renee and Alfred hurried to Scott's house, their hearts heavy with the weight of the news they carried. They knew that delivering this information would not be easy, but it was necessary. There was no explanation to make the news any better but they had to. With great determination, they approached the front door and knocked, steeling themselves for what lay ahead.Scott opened the door, his expression wary as he took in their somber faces. "What's going on?" he asked, his voice tinged with concern.Shocked, mouths opened.Confusion engulfed the entire room.Scott turned back slowly, he is met with a confused faces of Arden and Renee. He slowly backed up and moved away from the unconscious naked body of Alijah. "Before you say anything, this is not what it looks like." His head rambled, explanation seemed to have been stuck in his head.Scott went silent, as if expecting a miracle to happen and the situation would just explain itself. "Well, since you have refused to talk or say a
Scott and Alfred teleported back to the vampire Town to check out the mansion. "Wow, I have missed the place a little though. Living with a human is very frustrating. " Scott said to Alfred as they arrived.Lucas opened the door of the mansion, coming out from inside of it. "Lucas, how are you doing man? Any progree?" Alfred asked him, clearly wanting an update on the break-in.Scott stared back and forth at the both of them before snapping out and requiring that they both put him up to speed.-Sweaty. "I have no idea how an unconscious person got this sweaty and dirty. " Renee complained as she Alijah from the bed, carrying her to the bathroom. She saw that there was a bath drawn in the tub already, which further clarified Scott's story.She put her in the bath, slowly cleaning her body and getting rid of all the dirt. Renee drained the water and opened the shower on her. "Wow, even this didn't wake you up. Scott must have really done a number on you." Renee said, as she ea
