The moment I heard Hades voice, I panicked. It was only the strength of some supernatural force that held me together and not have me crumbled like powerder dust into the floor. I knew Hades was posses that I deviated from the path that I should have taken, but I dont regret it as much as hoe I am terrified of him. Finally being able to see and hear and feel thomas was worth it. If only I could convince my skittering heart the same notion. Keep your eyes grounded, keep your eyes grounded, I kept repeating to myself, through it did nothing to calm my heart that was was riocheting across my chest walls. I was panting standing there, terrified of what would happen now. Slowly I lifted my eyes to Thomas, watching him seethe. He was angry. So very angry. But I couldn't live with knowing Aiden would harm him because of me. Thomas eyes shifted to meet mine momentarily and discreetly I shook my head telling him not to try anything rash. This wasn't like the woman he spoke with that day, Aide
He was no brother of hers. I could see it. The seething hatred the small human boy had towards me. As if looks could kill, I would be dead. Eric also bared that expression once, a loathing so strong that even his own daughter couldn't be spared by it. But this wasn't a hatred bourne from kinship ties. Not in the least. He wanted me dead, the aura he carried well past family to the one I always feel at the humans Mininstrial office. But he knew where the wedge of power sat between us. I held the handle of the sword, balancing both their lives meticulously against the blade. One mishap and they could both fall and I bet my fangs, seeingher hurt was the last thing he would want. I knew neither of them before this, but the hatred each harboured was ridiculous. Though in the swallows case, I've given her more than enough reason to fear me. Turning my eyes to gaze at her, I took a breath, somewhat agitated with both of them. "Go back to your room before you regret it." I murmured. Her
I know what I requested was ridiculous. How can some make an attempt on your life and his sentence become freedom. It's unheard of and utter foolishness. But honestly, the only reason I did it was to get back at the bastard. How dare he put my life at risk with the mad men about that wants to unalive him? "Let him go." Every one around us, screamed and shouted threatsbin my direction, some even going as far as asking whether I've some mental illness. "Release him, Michael." Hades responds. "Even better, come, I'm sure you might be thirsty, even hungry." He leads me somewhere that I assume is inside, Beethoven playing in the background. A wave of apprehension hits me, a ball of fear coiling in the pits of my stomach. What was he playing at, yeilding to my ridiculous request? That scoundrel should have been locked up and tried. "Well at the very least, your fury isnt still aimed at me," He comments, a small item being placed in my hand, some what soft and fragrant. "Youve done
The news papers were filled with report after reports of what had transpired this past sunday. Usually I wouldn't pay attentiom to the rubbish bring printed by the hungry press, except this headline was not to be ignored. Blind girl dismissed accused male of attempted murder and assault. The bastard forced Yuuki to pass judgement, I could only laugh at the outcome. No doubt Yuuki told him to set him free as a prank, but then the idiot had fired up the crowd to hate her. What if someone had stepped out and attempted to harm her, what then? The longer Yuuki stayed with that vampire, the lower her odds of remaining alive. The lower still her odds of ever being happy. At the momemt, I'm still allowed on the estate and Lady Amy remains ignorant to the fact that Hades and I were at odds. I'm weary of the fact that he hasn't moved to remove me, though he always seem to be heading to his quarters whenever we do manage to meet. Or maybe he thinks i'm just another boy on his estate. But one
That function he brought me to last was a disaster. I"ve been locked in my room ever since, no one to keep me company or be bothersome again, except the occasional visit of the Devil of hell. Not even his brother. But for the last few days, I think something g has gone wrong. I'm convinced things have taken a turn for the worse. Whether I'm involved or the one to be blamed, I have not the faintest clue. But it was in the air, the way he circles my small wall to wall cage like a falon about to snap up its prey. Hades said nothing, but I knew he wasn't calm. The anger that rolled off him forced me into silence. He paces, paces and paced some more before the door slammed and he left. Those lonely hours I spent locked in the bathroom. It wouldn't keep him out, I knew that but it was just for my own peace of mind. I'm sure finding Thomas and I once again only added to his stress levels. The fact that I wasn't complying with his wishes like all the other hynotized dolls walking around mus
She fainted. I stood contemplating whether to drop her or not. Growling I wrapped her in my arms walking to her bed before laying her down. I stared at Victoria still annoyed at she passed out while I was still feeding. I might have taken too much blood at once, I lost control. I was angry. Angry she wasn't Belle but still relieved. But I was still angry that she defied my orders. His smell was all over her. Brother or not I didn't want him near her. She was mine, why doesn't she recognize that? My eyes shifted to her neck where my fangs pierced. Her skin was so soft and her blood was like nothing I ever tasted. It far exceeded aged wine. It felt like I had a taste of what humans called heaven. Silk and refined, as if I was running my hand through soft velvet. I couldn't control myself, I couldn't stop. Was this why blood letting was forbidden? Because they knew the blood letting would only continue. There was no way I could release her now. She was bound to me, just like her, my
I stood before the mirror in my room staring at the girl being reflected. Vampire. The word kept repeating in my head. Vampire.How could he be a vampire?Something that wasn't real, something that wasn't supposed to exist?Something that was vile ans revolting. Suddenlyeveything started to make sense. Their pale skins, the way their eyes tend to have this etheral red glow, the reason they caught me that day. It all finally came together as to why Thomas was always admant that once more of us got injured, the clothing or instruments used haf to be burnt. It's the reason why we moved around so many times. But a vampire, even now my head was finding it hard to wrap my mimd around it and accept it. This was the monster that I was living with. No rather monsters, since he wasn't the only one, inclusive of his brother. My fingers ghosted his recent bite, the wound had started to heal but it was slightly painful. I was so weak. I wasn't toppling over from his first few feedings but there
I swept her into my hand walking with her in my arms, kicking the door in before placing her against her bed. I frowned still confused with the sight I had just seen earlier. At first I thought she was staring at me, the same way she always had, but then I realized her eyes lacked emotion as if she had completely given up on the world still turning on its axis. As if she knew she was dying. I wanted to avoid her today, though I was badly starving for her blood. But after accidentally finding myself with her partly dressed, I decided against it. I needed to drown myself in paperwork, anything that would keep my mind from thinking about what I had seen, or how it had made me feel. Normally it was easy to persuade my minds to do whatever I wanted. To not pay her attention and not notice things. But that was damn near impossible now. That's why I found myself climbing the stairs instead of being neck deep in paperwork, that's the reason I found myself holding her in my arms while she be
