Chapter 26
Terakhir Diperbarui:
2025-05-26 18:00:46I dressed hastily the next morning. Not because I was looking forward to going to uni, but because I needed to check that Cassie was alright. Not to mention finding out how things were between the two of us. Something told me I had managed to lose my only friend. Not that it was my fault. I didn’t want Brodie’s attention. She was more than welcome to him. Somehow, I knew she wouldn’t see it like that. She would think that I had led him on.
I drove way faster than I should have done and wondered if my sudden speediness was due to the night before. Almost like I couldn’t turn off the muscle memory that had occurred during my high-speed chase. I cursed as I saw sirens coming up behind me and pulled over. I was fully expecting him to pull up behind me and give me a telling off, but he whizzed straight past me.

The Whispers in the Woods Chapter 28
The exhaustion was starting to kick in before I even made it to the door. I walked straight past my parents and headed into the kitchen. I slumped down on one of the dining chairs and laid my head on the table. It surprised me when they didn’t follow me. I had expected them to be there within seconds, grilling me about everything. When they finally joined me at the table, Mum put a glass in front of me. I eyed it suspiciously, but before I could come to a conclusion, the smell of it drifted towards me. I felt so torn.My human half was repulsed, but my vampire half was desperate to reach for the glass and start gulping down the thick crimson liquid. I just sat there, waiting for my body to decide which half would win out. “You need to drink it. If you don’t, you will get poorly.” I looked up at Mum, but I knew there was nothing but disdain on my face. It was her fault, all of it. She had caused me to be two competing halves by giving in to my dad. I wasn’t sure whether I want

It was like I was half awake. As though I was there, but not really. I could feel the jostling and movement, but my head felt so heavy and sore. I could feel myself drifting in and out of nothingness. From the darkness, I heard a howl. It almost seemed to confirm my demise. I tried harder to escape the dark prison I was in. The tiniest shaft of glowing light entered my mind. I tried harder still when I heard another howl, but it seemed to be further away.As my eyes finally gave way, I saw him in all his magnificence. Stood among the trees, howling into the air. I was so taken aback by the sight of him that I hadn’t realised that I wasn’t alone. My mum had her hands on me and I felt her checking my neck for a pulse. I was so groggy and sore; I struggled to move at all.Then I saw the worst sight I had ever seen. My dad charged at Pip and sent him flying into a nearby tree. Pip just lay there, as though he had given up and had no fight left in him. I had no choice. I ha

I felt so guilty about leaving Cassie behind. It was all I could think about as I drove. I knew he wouldn’t hurt her. Well, not in the same way he would hurt me. He couldn’t show his true self to her and that gave her protection that I didn’t have. It didn’t stop me from feeling like I had let her down, though. Like I was a coward, mainly because I was. I was a vampire, and I had run from him like all that existed was my human half. I couldn’t help but consider how ashamed my parents would be of me and how I had proved them right time and again.Brodie followed me for much longer than I thought he would manage. I had pushed my little cream Mini to within an inch of its life and I could feel it losing grip on every bend I took at stupid speed. It was a waiting game to see whether he dropped back or I totalled my car and probably myself, too.As we came to the trees just before the house, he left me alone finally. I couldn’t help but think it had all been about scaring m

I turned my head slightly and looked at them. They had come along the stretch of the beach rather than coming from the road as I had. I could see them doing normal things, like skimming stones across the water, and wondered how someone so evil could be so normal. The three of them looked like any lads of their age. Rugby tackling each other into the sand and kicking it at each other. I thought about running for the car, but there was no way I would get there without them seeing me. They were more than fast enough to hunt me down. If I left and headed towards the secluded roads that led to home, I would be in even more danger. At least on the beach, there were other people, even if they were few and far between.I had assumed they lived in the woods that surrounded my house. I had no real reason to think that. It came from the fact that Pip always seemed to be close by, but at the speed he could run, he could easily travel to me. Then there was the howling I had heard, but the

I practically ran out to the carpark. All I knew was that I had to leave. The last lecture of the day wasn’t important enough to have to see Brodie again. The second I closed the door of the car behind me, I locked the doors. Feeling somewhat safer, I sighed a breath of relief. It wasn’t enough. I needed to be further away. I had no idea where I should even go. I didn’t want to go home, and I had nowhere else to go. I started the car and just drove. Heading north out of instinct and drove along the coast.The Scottish coast near Inverness was, for the most part small strips of stones leading to the water’s edge. It was a place people went for active walking holidays not to sit out on the beach enjoying the sun. I tried to focus on the road in front of me and forget everything else on my mind, not that it worked.I spotted a small strip of sand instead of the usual rocks and pulled into the car park nearby. I just sat there for a moment, enjoying the view of the sea and
