"You really shouldn't have done that." James said from the door, his eyes wide and worried.He and Marcus had rushed in here and shot Damon with a pistol that was currently in Marcus' hand.Marcus just shrugged and lowered the gun."He'll thank me for it tomorrow." Then they both turned to me.I was still looking at Damon whom I rolled off of me after they shot him.Wait, they shot him?They shot him!Damon looked like he was asleep buthe wasn't moving.And in the dim light it was hard to see if he was breathing or not.'Relax, he's not dead, we're not stupid." Marcus said as he approached Damon from the other side of the bed.James approached the bed too, but more in my direction.When he got to me he curtly handed me my shirt, making me for the first time realize my state of undress.I took it quickly from him and muttered a quiet 'thank you' then I put it on.It didn't really cover everything since Damon basically ripped it apart.After I put it on I pulled the bed sheet up a bit t
I don't know how but I managed to fall asleep last night.And let me just tell you it wasn't a peaceful sleep.Far from it.I could see that the sun was already high up in the sky because of the light that shone through the thick blue curtains. I was in Damon's room.I think I woke up like two hours ago but I wasstilllying in bed.Icouldn't find it in me to get up.Utterly confused is not even close to how I feel right now.Ijust couldn't make sense of anything.Everything that happened last night and the past month feel like a blur.What on earth is happening to me?Scenes from last nightkeep flashinginmy head.Why was he chained?Why did he come here? Why did he kiss me?But more importantly why did I kiss back?Oh you know why you kissed back.Shut up!It felt like a dream at this point.If it hadn't been for Marcus last night, Damon would have marked me.Actually marked me.He probably would have come to his senses this morning though and killed me.So ... maybe its a good thing i
So we basically spent the day baking brownies and cookies under strict directions from Baking chef Anastasia.That's what she calls herself now.Out of seven trays that we baked only three turned out to be good.Don't ask me how, Anastasia just tasted the first one of each tray and if the sugar level was not to her satisfaction, she condemned it by making a cute scowling face and sticking her tongue out.Which was weird since they were all baked from the same barter.She had finished the first tray and had moved on to the second one when she stopped mid brownie."Where's Damon, he has to try these." she said looking around frantically.Baking the brownies had taken my mind off of him.Come to think of it, where is he?I haven't seen him since last night.Marcus and James must have dragged him off somewhere.Is he back in the basement?Or out somewhere in the fields? Or in the hospital?Or, or .....'Damon!" My thoughts were cut off by an ear piercing scream.And just like that, Anasta
The rest of the week kinda followed the same pattern.I saw Mavis a few times but not as much as I wanted to. I hardly left the house, mainly because there was no place for me to go.Damon is constantly not around and Anastasia has been screaming the house down which is slowly driving me to suicide.Trust me, a pitch like that should be illegal.So, today, I decided to have a lazy day. Isn't everyday a lazy day for you?No, today's a real lazy day. I'm going to just while away time in the backyard.Even though it hurts me that I left myPercy Jackson books back at the cottage I was able to find some books here in the bookshelf by the dining hall.So, here I was lying on a sun loungeratthe backyard with the sun warming me a cool breeze cooling me at the same time. The backyard was huge and it had a large pool right at the centre. It had been covered though, which made me believe that he hardly ever used it.Maybe I will use it one day. Just not today.I had a glass of lemonade in one h
My head is pounding.My limbs are throbbing. My heart is racing.I woke up with a start.I opened my eyes and blinked several times to adjust my eyes to the environment.But they weren't.sat up. Oh no.Either I was in a really dark room that didn't belong to me or I had gone blind.I tried to wave a hand in front of my face but I couldn't.My hands were bound behind me. More like chained, by the cool metal against my skin and the clanking noises it made.Wait, chained?My last memories flashed through my mind.Thunderstorm, Sirens, Anastasia, Latifah ... Oh no."I see you're awake." a low voice said from like five feet behind me.I froze.My heart rate increased again. I slowly turned my head towards the voice and then I saw a small lamp being switched on.It wasn't all too bright but it was just enough to see around.The person just looking like a shadow behind the dim source of light.The figure behind the lamp set it on a table and walked past it towards me.It was when the person
He opened a door and started walking down a long brightly lit corridor.He just kept taking cool strides even though I was screaming and trying to wiggle my body out of his grasp."The less you protest the easier it will be for us Princess."I heard him kick another door open and he entered and just threw me on the ground.Yes, the solid concrete ground.Inconsiderate b*stard.I hit the floor with a loud thump and I think I felt my rib crack."Arrgh, my. Spine." I moaned trying to touch my aching back, but I couldn't, my hands were fricking chained.Instead of hearing an 'I'm so sorry, I forgot the floor was made out of concrete', I heard a loud growl from the other end of the room and a lot of chains moving.The light in the room was switched on.I turned to look at Jax and saw that his eyes were beginning to glow a faint yellow. They were fixed on something and obviously begining to get irritated.I turned my head to the other end of the room and there he was, practically drowning i
"You're a bastard you know that? Believe me it wouldn't take me more than a snap of my fingers to get rid of you." a voice said in a distance sounding very pissed.'Of course it would." I heard a more familiar voice chuckle from beside me.I tried to open my eyes but my eyelids were too heavy.And honestly, the more I drifted away from my surroundings, the more peaceful I felt. But I knew I had to get back to reality."I would love nothing more than to kill you right now." the other voice said clearly getting angrier.This time I forced to open my eyes. And they did.Slowly but surely, my eyelids peeled themselves off of my eyeballs and I could see again.I tried to sit up so I could adjust to my surroundings properly."Ah!" I couldn't stop the grunt that came out of my mouth.I felt like a million daggers were digging into my flesh all at the same time.My hands, that were now free of the chains, immediately flew to the crook of my neck.Oh no.Someone bit me."Oh look who's awake no
It didn't make any sense to me when he first said it, the following events though made it crystal clear.Beta Shawn didn't say another word.He didn't need to.He just turned to the opened door and whistled, short and curt.Footsteps were heard echoing in the corridor until they reached our room. Everything in that moment seemed to go in slow motion.My heart was beating very slowly and heavily in my chest. Each footstep knocking it's pace down even further until they finally arrived.And then it just stopped altogether.Two men stepped in, one stood bythe door and the other walked to the center of the room holding something in hand.He threw it on the floor with a loud thump. The thing rolled a bit and was now lying two feet away from Damon.Damon's smirk fell completely, and he looked at the thing with quizzical eyes. He looked up at Shawn who just had a straight face on, then looked back down at the thing and sniffed it slightly. The blood drained from his face.Maybe its a bomb?I
