Let's just say I know a lot about abusive fathers

I began packing my bag, my whole body trembling in fear that he might catch me. This is my first time doing something like this, but I'm fed up with the abuse day and night for no reason.

Packing the last of my belongings, I took one last look around before leaving my home. Walking along the dimly lit road, my body shivered like crazy stupid me. I should have worn a sweater. I can't help but think about how life was before my mom left us.

I thanked God when I realized that I was almost at the bus stop, putting some more speed into my walking.

I reached the bus stop, taking a seat on the bench. I look around, only to see that I'm not alone. Me being the curious girl that I am; I scoot over to the boy sitting a few inches away from me. He looks to be about 2 years older than me. I clear my dry throat before speaking. 

" Hi. " he turns around to face me, a smirk across his face before it changes into one that wasn't very human-like. His once-bright blue eyes darkened black as midnight, his teeth hanging out of his mouth.

I screamed and started running, frightened by what I saw before me. Only the thing didn't chase me.

I started to run and walk, trying to catch my breath. In such a sudden movement, I was pushed to the ground and the human-animal-looking thing was standing over me.

I crawl backward trying to get away from him but he only steps closer he pouts a little " this is no fun, you're not running and screaming as much as the other females I've fed on and I enjoy playing a little with my food before I devour it" his words paralyze me I stay there my breathing quickening unable to move

Is this the end? This can't be the end. I must be dreaming. This can't be the end.

" You are," the thing says, moving closer to me. I close my eyes, preparing for what was to come, but then I heard growling, growling?

I open my eyes slowly, only to see more like him.

" What did he tell you? There's a way to deal with this hunger. You can't go around feeding on innocent humans," one of the monster-looking things says, two other ones beside him in an attacking position. The monster looking thing that tried to attack.

"This is your last strike I'm afraid I'll have to kill you," one of the monster man looking things said the one that tried to attack me earlier laughed, and before I know it two-man monster thing started attacking him they sunk their teeth into him ripping his neck out, blood oozing out of it. 

The sight made me feel dizzy. I struggled to stay conscious, but to no avail. I slipped into the darkness.

My head was throbbing like hell. I held it as I got up off the cold bench. It took a while before I could even think straight. 

I observed my surroundings, wondering how I got here. I'm in a cell, a very dirty-looking one I might add, with blood stains and claw marks on the wall.

Feeling terrified, I get up off the cold bench I was on and walk quietly to the cell door. I sigh when I see it was chained. The hairs on my hands stood up,, and I knew I was being watched.

 It took everything in me not to scream when I look up to see a man's figure and glowing eyes staring right at me in the dimly lit place. The only light in the place is the light from the moon shining through the window.

" You're up," the man says, his voice displaying a hint of an accent. Damn, that accent was hot. The man chuckled as if hearing what I said, but there's no way he could have, so I just ignored him.

He opens the cell and steps in, his body towering over me, I step back a little.

" Did anyone ever tell you to never wander alone on the road in the middle of the night?"

" I wasn't wondering,"

" Then what were you doing on the road at that time of the night?"

" I don't mean to be rude, but this is none of your business,"

He's starting to annoy me. I don't like to be accused of something I didn't do.

" It is if it wasn't for my men-" he starts, but stops. I roll my eyes. Why say something if you're not going to finish it?

" may I ask what you remember from last? " he steps closer to me and I step back, until my back hits the blood-stained wall. How disgusting

" Nothing, " I lied as he shook his head before gripping my throat.

" Lies your heart skipped a beat. " you're one of t- " ssh," he says, placing a finger over my lip. I bit his finger hard,, but it's as if it's made of stone. I end up hurting my teeth while he looks like nothing happened.

" It is bitches like you I don't like, answer the damn question or I'll be forced to take it from you and I don't like going against women's will,"

" Okay, fine, I'll tell you what I remember.," he releases his hands from my throat. 

" I remember that I'm in a disgusting cell and I need to get the fuck out Mr glowing eye,"

" Fine, you asked for this. " he places both hands on my temples, closing his eyes. It stung. He quickly releases it and opens his hazel eyes that now look a few shades darker. He doesn't say anything to me, he just grabs my hands. I wince when his hands touch the skin of the inside. How did he know that I had cuts there?.

He lets go of my hands. I look to the ground, embarrassed. My whole body is covered in scars, but this is fresh.

" Where were you gonna go? '' he finally says. I look at him, confused. ," after you decided to run away from home " he clarifies

 I look up at him in shock. How did he know that?

He must be one of the things from earlier that would explain everything. How his eyes were glowing outside the cell, how he knew I was lying, how he could tell my heart was skipping a beat, the bloodstains and claw marks on the wall now.

" Are you one of those monster - beast-looking things?" I ask my voice showing how scared I was.

He looks away from me, his whole body giving away that he's offended by what I say. I felt bad but I have no idea what those things are. I've never seen them before or even heard of them.

" listen Mr glowing eyes, I didn't mean to offend you, I'm sorry you took offense," 

" leave it be. I'm Tylor. Call me that."

" I'm Skai, " he smiles and something tells me he already knows. This is the first little smile I've seen from him since we've been here and I can't help but notice how handsome he is.

" I must be on my way now, Taylor, " I say and he steps away as I was about to reach the cell he spoke.

" wait " I turn around and look at him

"Where were you gonna go?" I was surprised at the amount of concern that was in his eyes.

"To be honest I don't know, I had some money I was gonna take the bus and stop off at the last stop, find a place to rent, and then find a job, wait where's my bag," I say only missing it now.

" Well, you could stay here if you like. One of our cooks just died. You could help out in the kitchen. Can you cook?"

" I can,"

" Good, oh, and there's your bag. " he points to the beach and I see it under there.

" Okay then, let me show you up to your room," he says, leaving the cell. I pick my bag up and follow behind him.

" wait, why are you doing this?" I had to ask.

" Let's just say I know a lot about abusive fathers. Now come on human." Human?
